Really Curious

When I blogged about camping alone as a woman, and mentioned bringing weapons, what weapons did you envision?

I pictured a firearm of some sort, most likely a handgun, because if I recall correctly, you've posted before about carrying a firearm in bear-and-cougar country. I know you have a dog, but I don't count dogs as 'weapons', and he'd probably be less than no help if a bear or cougar came around. I presume you have a stick and a knife - primarily tools rather than weapons, and again, not very effective against a large predator, though better than nothing. Since you teach self-defense, it wouldn't surprise me if you also have pepper spray, which would be effective.

... I didn't recall correctly; it was bleodswean who posted about that. Sorry; my mistake!
