Each man should have had a loaded .44 or .454 strapped on in a shoulder holster, I don’t give a damn how uncomfortable it may be. Bear country is bear country.

It’s Canada. Handguns are illegal.

Agreed! But I'll add a Ruger Blackhawk in .45 Colt with special handloads (wide flatnose bullets 280 grains or heavier at about 1100 fps or faster, within safe reloading practices for the Ruger Blackhawk only). ...in a western side holster, though, of course.

I carry a S&W 29 .44 mag in a shoulder holster every time I go in the woods; 225 gr. Speer jacketed hollow points in front of H110. Bang!
