Snapshot Report post Posted June 23, 2018 It looks like another record tourist year for Yellowstone. Saw a photo the other day, of huge lines of cars at the West entrance. It's a great place, but huge crowds can really ruin the experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

awatson Report post Posted June 23, 2018 I was just thinking about buying some bear spray. For the tweekers or whoever keep breaking into my camper. I pray I catch them in the act one of these times. I always keep a spray-paint sized canister in the door of my truck for this same reason. Less-lethal and waaay better than mace. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike S Report post Posted June 23, 2018 Both spray and a sidearm if you are allowed and proficient. Can't imagine trying to unlimber that scoped .460 in a hurry though. Do some research on bear behavior. Make noise while hiking and travel downwind where possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hoghntr Report post Posted June 23, 2018 Just fyi the safety clips remove very easily so do not walk around with little orange tab removed. L.O.L. multiple guys i know discharched their cans in their own faces while celebratory hug occurred after bear kills. 😂 A bears olfactory receptors are some 7x better than a bloodhound so pepper spray is extremely efficient BUT that said like a migraine its better to administer the medicine before it is full strength! Try to use spray before full blown attack where he has other senses overriding his nose. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
