Gilson Alpha

When the day fades and the wilderness shows its teeth, the wolf emerges. Gilson x Rayco Design's Alpha captures that electric moment between dusk and dark, when the forest belongs to its true rulers. Rich earth tones and bold lines trace the path of rivers through pine-clad valleys, while a watchful wolf reminds us we're not alone in these woods. This design is for those who know that true adventure often begins when you venture beyond the comfort zone.

FEATURES

• Keeps Cold for Days - When pre-cooled, (getting the insulation in the cooler cold, which will melt your first batch of ice) the foam used in all Cordova hard side coolers is robust enough to keep your refreshments cold for days on end.
• Certified Bear Resistant - The Interagency Grizzly Bear Committee has independently certified our coolers as “Bear Resistant” when the bear locks are utilized. If you want to see how the test is conducted (with real bears and real Cordova Coolers) click here. Spoiler alert: It’s awesome.
• Patented Lid Lock - Nobody wants a heavy lid to smack down on fingers when retrieving ice cold refreshments. The Lid Lock™ system keeps the lid up and locked in place at 70° and 90° for as long as you need it to.
• Top Loader Latches - When prepping for travel, every inch of space counts. We use Top Loader Latches™ so you can pack tight and access what you need without moving surrounding gear.
• Anodized Aluminum Handles - Anodized aluminum handles are bolted together, rock solid and lock in place when carrying to provide the perfect grip with no swinging or binding.
• Built-In Bottle Opener - Forgetting the bottle opener at home is a drag but have no fear! Cordova has you covered with a bottle opener built right into the sturdy aluminum handles.
• Anti-Slip Goat Feet - We didn’t name this cooler component Anti-Slip Goat Feet™ for nothing. Goat Feet™ pads won’t budge and keep your contents steady on a variety of surfaces. Added bonus: they prevent the cooler from directly touching hot surfaces, which greatly improves ice retention.
• Advanced Delrin^® Drain Plug - Quickly drain excess water without losing efficiency. The drain plug is engineered to keep your cooler tightly sealed to maintain maximum ice retention.
