I have family in Jackson Hole, one member is retired but does tours periodically just cuz he loves the scenery, story telling and strangers. Anyway, my favorite story he tells is of this foreign couple that thought bear spray was actually repellent, so they started spraying it on each other while waiting for the tour to head out.

Not a tragic ending as the OP story but a cautionary tale nonetheless, and one that teaches a lesson. Always read the instructions when your seeing nature you've never seen before.

- anyway, csb

Replying to a past comment about bears running downhill: they come downhill like a bolt of lightning. They catch large elk, moose and caribou running downhill wide assed open downhill. You don’t think as fast as those animals run down hill. Bear spray and 10mm loaded with Underwood or Buffalo Bore ammo that you’ve practiced with until your bank account is empty cause the good stuff ain’t cheap. And don’t forget wolves - they live there too snd there’s a lot more of them than bears.
