In the bear country scenario,if it's anti-gun politics that drive "you", YOU'RE NUTS!. I do practice C.A.N.T.
I also wonder if "you" were a guide with 3 or 4 clients in your trust on a fishing expedition, would "you" in that scenario, also only protect them with bear spray?

PS: Also, Hap, curiosity compels me to ask, what is your choice of firearm and loads while plodding thru bear country ?
