They breed'em tough up here! heck, if that fella had been carrying his River Shorty, he would have had a fire going and a couple of bear steaks grilling by the time his hunting partners found him<g> I personally, being a transplant up here in Alaska, have to carry a gun when in bear territory. I just didn't learn the basic Alaskan skills as a child: bear whuppin', how to be comfortable in 30 F weather in just a t-shirt, etc. Dave Seng Juneau, Alaska > -----Original Message----- > From: Mel Grindol [mailto:grindol_at_my-deja.com] > Sent: Wednesday, November 03, 1999 10:12 AM > To: Paddlewise > Subject: [Paddlewise] Fight off a grizzly?!? > > > This guy has a little more guts/stamina/cohanas than I think > I would have: > > http://www.adn.com/stories/T99110300.html > > So how well would that River Shorty do against a grizzly? > > Mel > *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not to be reproduced outside PaddleWise without author's permission Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************
