Holy shite. They are lucky.

When the grizzly ceased its attack Mr Cummings said he called out to his friend to see if he was alright, and the bear “circled around and got on me again.”
He tried to fight back but was overpowered. The bear eventually got off him and left, and he remained silent for several minutes. He was able to get up and rejoin his friends soon afterwards.

They ought to have had bear spray. I know being armed sounds responsible, but unless you can unload a .45 (anything less bounces off their skulls - maybe a .40 could do the trick if you’re lucky) within a few yards in a few seconds with precision, you’re better off with spray, at least for grizzlies.
The best protection is NOISE. They avoid the shite out of that. Blast Led Zeppelin II and no bear will bother you. Kinda defeats the tranquility of the forest, but hey, no scary ursine interactions.
