      Thank you. Just to clarify for my viewers and people wishing to visit Bamff or Jasper or any of our amazing National Parks, there are no firearms allowed, period. This is why I made this video with the focus I did. No hunting in the National Parks either. :)

    Can I ask why you didn’t get loud and aggressive in your explanation of your interaction? You kept calm each time he charged you. So I’m confused why the original advice was not followed. Thankyou for your response! And the video. I want to go hiking with my 7 year old son. And I’m very scared for us to have this encounter.

    • @InsidersTravelGuideCanada
      @InsidersTravelGuideCanada 5 часов назад

      Please let me clarify. When trying to calmly walk away, you remain calm. You speak calm and you slowly retreat while making NO eye contact. You only get loud and aggressive if you are being attacked. Otherwise you only provoke an attack which you don't want to do.

    What are your thoughts on bear spray if a grizzly charges you? Would it be a good idea to stand your ground and use the bear spray and horn if the bears charges/gets too close?

    • @InsidersTravelGuideCanada
      @InsidersTravelGuideCanada 3 дня назад

      I'm not a bear spray advocate, but it's not say it doesn't work. But it's fact that many grizzly bears have only gotten more pissed off after being sprayed. Look at all of the people who get pepper sprayed in riots etc...many of them fall to their knees, but many of them also get even more enraged. My personal view is, that if a black bear attacks, I stand my ground and fight like hell. If a grizzly attacks I play dead. There's a whole other conversation to be had there. Perhaps it's time for another video!

    When I was 14, I was fishing in a California Sierra stream when I heard something nearby. It sounded like a goat, so I approached the brush to take a look. Then suddenly the bushes erupted and a horrible roar occurred. I was being rushed by a very angry bear. For a bare second I saw the bushes bouncing toward me. There was no conscientiousness or decision making in the moment. I ran.. the sounds behind me were horrible. It's like a dream because I just remember flying over a log as if I was picked up by angels. I could hear the horrible sounds behind me. I never looked back and ran out of the area. My mind recorded the minimum in the moment and I don't know how I got so much speed over the river rocks. Instinct prevailed!

    • @InsidersTravelGuideCanada
      @InsidersTravelGuideCanada 23 дня назад

      The likelihood is low but...don't keep any food in your tent. There are bear proof lockers at every campsite. And there will be bear warnings if bears have been sight2d near the campground

      The valley of the 6 Glaciers is a wonderful hike. Trail shoes are fine but you will encounter scree and rocks that might make a hiking boot a better choice. But you can do it. And not a high ankle boot. Just a hiking shoe with firm soles. (And make sure they are broken in.)
