I should have mentioned that this posting was brought to you by an Alaskan
fly fishing guide that works at Kaufmann's Streamborne during the off
season. He has lots of wonderful bear stories and I really enjoyed this
little ditty and I couldn't resist. He has one about Pepper Spray as well,
"In Grizzly Country, wear a bell and carry pepper spray." "By the way you
can tell Grizzly Bear Scat from Black Bear cuz it is darker and larger, has
bells in it and smells like pepper."

In Grizzly county make sure to grind off the front sight of your "large
caliber sidearm." That way it won't hurt so bad when the bear shoves it
up
your ass. G

This afternoon I talked to a senior Forest Service ranger who used to be
a wildlife biologist in Montana. He said the Hegben Lake area is rife
with grizzlies. I'm bringing my bear spray and a large caliber sidearm.
Stay clear, or at least upwind. :-)
