    Notice our ursine friend is trying to get on top of the tent. He thinks it's a hammock.

    . . . "Guaranteed . . . I put my fire out,

    I poured water on it till it was cold to the touch.

    For sure . . . yes Sir, I did.

    Who cares about showers, gourmet food, using flush toilets. Just keep on walking and being away from it all.

    There are times that the only way you can do something is to do it alone.

    There is a good chance that .40 won't kill a bear. Might scare him off, but won't kill him. Least I wouldn't trust a .40 to kill it..

    Anyway, the original picture is a little funny until it happens to you.

    I dont really carry because of the wild life, I carry because there are waaaaaay to many idiots out there that dont care what they do or when they do it. I mean if I absolutely had to, I'd use it to protect myself from an animal, but that is not my intent when I bring one. I hope and pray I never have to use my gun in self defense again. It's not a pleasant experience.

    It would be awesome to, just once, have a discussion about bears without it degrading into the same tired, overplayed, exhaustively repeated discussion about guns.
