But don’t do it, different mixture that is less effective on humans than good pepper spray and emits in a fog which is good for bears smell factor but will drift back over the sprayer. Get Sabre or similar in the stream config, straight to the face and eyes; best there is at disabling a man (ask me how I know).
Park rangers are advising hikers and campers in national parks to be alert for bears and take extra precautions to avoid an encounter.
They advise park visitors to wear little bells on their clothes so they make noise when hiking. The bell noise allows bears to hear them coming from a distance, so they won’t be startled by a hiker accidentally sneaking up on them, which might cause a bear to charge.
Visitors are told they should also carry a pepper spray can just in case they encounter a bear. Spraying the pepper into the air will irritate the bear’s sensitive nose and it will run away.
It is also a good idea to keep an eye out for fresh bear droppings so you have an idea if bears are in the area. People should be able to recognise the difference between black bear and grizzly bear scat.
Black bear droppings are smaller and often contain berries, leaves, and possibly bits of fur. Grizzly bear droppings tend to contain small bells and smell of pepper.

Funny with the bear spray.

IANAL, but as I understand, while pepper spray is legal in D.C., bear spray is not. And make sure it’s not outdated.
“What is the difference between Canada and DC?” Let’s do Stupid Weapon Rules again for $400, Alex…
In a pinch, wasp spray works as well..or oven cleaner. I had it in my hand, instinct took over.
Love a girl who didn’t choose the bear. Shows sense.

Had to be done, I’m sorry I’m the first.

Completely off topic but bear with me…it’s perfect and it describes the attitude of leftists and the media exactly…unfortunately 🙁

The Desantisizer has ordered rainbow crossings out. One flag. One people? Not so much.
