If your sweating it that bad, wait until light! Fart or something. When I do that I can definitle clear and area!
That's a good one! Maybe you could also light a match at the same time!
Seriously, I can't see what the problem is here with bears. If we are hunting we have weapons with us don't we? If you don't think a bow is good enough to defend yourself with then throw the bow away and hunt with gun only. I knew an old timer once who was invited to hunt some new land that his nephew bought. He got wind that someone spotted a bear on the property and he didn't want to go anywhere near the area being afraid of a confrontation. Heck, he was going to be hunting with a gun, what in the world was he so scared of? Not very easy to understand such thinking.
