Deep Dive
Why We Like The Tundra 250 Cooler
Pack a week's worth of meals in Yeti's Tundra 250 Cooler for a family camping, climbing, or river trip. This cooler's rotomolded construction is virtually indestructible — the Interagency Grizzly Bear Committee has certified the Tundra 250 as a bear-resistant food container when you install two padlocks (sold separately) on both front corners — so don't worry when a brown bear wanders into the campsite in search of a ham sandwich.
No Sweat and Permafrost insulation work in tandem to make sure cool condensation stays inside the cooler to keep your drinks, well, cool. Yeti made this cooler with incredibly durable polyethylene for long-lasting durability, and finished it with DoubleHaul handles that won't break on you unlike most coolers. The Vortex Drain System rids all the melted ice with ease, and the Bearfoot non-slip feet prevent the Tundra from slipping into the river after a sudden stop at the dock.
