My family and I camp in the northern woods of Michigan. My brothers and I bring rifles, a Sig AR in 556 for me, a DPM panther in 556 for one and a scoped, bolt action, Ruger 243 "All American" for the other brother. We bring those for time on our range. All of us have pistols of various calibers. I bring a small frame Para 1911 "wart hog".[IMG]

We are aware of bear in the area, plenty of sightings by locals and the last two camping seasons we have found evidence of them on our land. This past summer there was a bear attack in our area, at least one in our camp open carries all the time now and the kids are no longer allowed away from the camp site without an adult present. Coyotes and wolf hybrids are quite common and are seen often. Having read of coyote attacks on adult males, I may start to open carry a Ruger mark III 22/45 to ward off "Wiley" and plink a few of the ever-present game birds.
