Just bought my son a new HH and winter gear. I’m taking him out into the woods this weekend for his first hang (1 DEG C). He told me he has to stop by the outdoor shop to pick up a good knife to protect himself before we go. I tried to tell him in 40 years of camping I’ve never seen a bear in the woods, and if we did this late in the year, that knife is only going to piss him off. So now he wants to bring his 120LB dog (Shepard/Newfoundland mix).:laugh:
