Thanks for all of the replies guys. I like the Riley Box and the Stanley. I'm not sure we need a bear resistent kitchen box from Kanz Outdoors, especially for $675. thanks Matt

"Your troop should do what you like. My guys have figured out to take the backpacking stoves on backpacking trips; the two-burner camp stoves on front-country trips and neither when we do wilderness survival."
