Worth noting that your bear advice is for brown bears (mostly Western US); black bears (mostly Eastern US), you want to scare off in much the same fashion as cougars, though with the bit where you check for cubs first.
- bargl 7y agoThanks for the additional info, I got my advice in brown bear territory.
- dheera 7y agoDepends on where in the west. In California there are lots of black bears but no grizzly bears. BTW in case it isn't clear to readers: brown bear === grizzly bears and are massive black bears are relatively much smaller Black bears can be either black or dark brown in color and that doesn't make them a brown bear.
