This year, we have expanded our partnership for bear spray rentals at three locations in Jackson Hole with Bear Spray Shack: Jenny Lake Visitor Center, Colter Bay Visitor Center and the National Elk Refuge and Greater Yellowstone Visitor Center.

Starting at $10 for 1 day and going up to $30 for 5-21 days, visitors can pick up a rental canister from Bear Spray Shack at any of their three locations and return it when finished at any location. The fully automated kiosks also provide a QR code on the canister that link you with helpful instructions on how to use bear spray properly.

This pilot program allows visitors access to bear spray outside of normal store business hours and helps ensure that fewer canisters end up in the waste stream.
