Boortz Report: A Grizzly Bear Lesson Every Hiker Should Hear

Boortz shares a humorous story from a trip to West Yellowstone, where he asked a local outdoorsman whether carrying a .45 pistol was enough protection against grizzly bears. The man jokingly suggested filing down the barrel because a handgun would be useless against a charging grizzly. Boortz uses the anecdote to emphasize that bear spray, not a handgun, is the recommended defense when hiking in bear country, ending with a tongue-in-cheek remark about its usefulness in other situations.
