Absolutely correct, I worked for Brewster, 12 seasons in Jasper park, Of course no guns, on in country hikeing trips, in groups, everyone carried bear spray, very careful with food and garbage--stayed together--stayed alert---I never had occasion to use bear spray, one gentleman on the thread said dont carry it in the back pack---very good advice--a carry pouch on the belt for quick draw makes sense.
