Tip for hiking in bear country. Never be the slowest in your group.
Reminds me of an old joke.
Two guys are hiking in the woods when they see a grizzly bear heading towards them. The first hiker reaches into his back pack and pulls out some running shoes and puts them on. The second hiker says, "Why are you doing that? You can't out run a grizzly bear." The first hiker says, "I know, all I have to do is out run you."
ack-ack
