protecting my goat

[IdahoNancy]

It may be a little over done but I carry both bear spray and a gun. One on each side of my pack. They fit in the water bottle pockets on the side. I like the statistics on bear spray (granted they maybe somewhat biased) but I would always want a gun to dispatch a mortally wounded packgoat.
Idaho is heavy wolf country, not sure I would want bear spray on my wolf pelt if the opportunity arose.
