LOL...   That reminds me.

When we were hiking in Galcier or the Bob Marshall, I forget which, I was
behind as usual, when I came upon my group taking a break and they ask me if
I smelt the bear spray back on the trail.  No I hadn't, but apparently one of
the guys who had his bear spray cannister tape to his hiking pole
inadvertantly pulled the trigger for a second or two and wiped them all out!
