B&J -
We have camped in Yellowstone, and in the high Sierras. In both places, entry was forbidden to tents and to campers with canvas sides, but entry was readily granted to a TrailManor. In Yellowstone, the rules were "no food in the camper, and no food or coolers in the tow vehicles". In the Sierras, bear boxes were provided for each site, and the rangers were VERY insistent that all campers use them, checking every site at least twice as each evening progressed. Did they work? I don't know, but in the week we were there, there were no reported bear incidents in the campground.
My guess is that if a grizzly wants to get into your camper or tow vehicle, he will. A hardside camper makes it harder for him, but not impossible. That is part of the experience of being outside. So make it a point to make your site less attractive than your neighbor's site.
