Was hiking alone at dusk in Colorado and came upon a large black bear. I was already very nervous and wanted to go home. I took off running, in full panic. Coyotes were howling the woods. I fell and badly broke my elbow, bleeding everywhere. It was a long hour and a half hike back to the car, bleeding out the whole time. The bear hardly even looked at me. Probably I should have just backed away slowly. But as a novice, handling these situations alone is scary. It's easier said than done to stand your ground
