What is suggested or found to be the better canisters? I know that many peaks have PVC canisters but I don’t plan on going to that extent. But is a glass jar better than a plastic bottle? A glass jar with a plastic lid verses a metal lid seems a good one to me. I have found metal lids rusted and very difficult to open. On Mt. Blue an couple years back I found a broken beer (?) bottle (on the ground) with a small note paper roll in it so I replaced it with a rinsed out Gatorade bottle (all I had at the time) and clean ziplock and retied it to a leather strap. From reports its sounds like it is still there. But someone told me moose tend to chew through these. And peanut butter jars tend to keep their smell.
I presently have two jars available in case I find the need. One is a ‘Fluff’ jar (clear) with plastic lid and the other a Lipton Ice Tea jar (brown) with plastic lid. Good or bad idea?
And what works best to keep them attached?
