    REI Members get back an estimated 10% on this item as part of their annual member refund.

    The REI Member Dividend

    The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

    Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

    Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

    Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

      Comments about Bear Attacks - Their Causes and Avoidance:

      My wife and I are going to Glacier NP for 2 weeks of hiking in 9/09 and are really concerned about being as safe as possible in grizzly country.

      I just finished reading this book and feel that although I have 50+ years of hiking/mountaineering experience (but none in grizzly country), my understanding of the causes of grizzly/black bear attacks and their avoidance has increased immensely.

      I will feel a lot better hiking on their turf now that I have become aware of the whys, dos and don'ts.
