[QUOTE="kellyreno, post: 1560977, member: 14488"] There are no Grizzlies in CO, only black bears and in 35yrs of hiking in CO I have never seen one there (did see one in WY). They are not prone to confronting humans and if they do, you can scare them away by yelling and waving your arms. No need to shoot them. What you should be more concerned with is mountain lions of course 2 legged predators. For those I carry a Glock .40 or a .357 revolver. The best advice is to keep your group together, especially kids and dogs. Don't let them lag behind, and make some noise as you hike. Just enough noise so that critters know you are coming and they are likely to clear out. Have fun and be safe. [/QUOTE]
