I'm working at a mining camp in the absolute middle of nowhere in Alaska for a month this summer. What should I bring to handle pic related?

Bear spray.
Less likely to be stolen by your subhuman coworkers.
>>30496911
Been there, done that.
If the place is corporate you need to check with their rules, either they will have security or a dedicated anti bear crew. Some places will not allow firearms on their property as retarded as it is.
For less formal ops:
Always have bear spray on you just in case, sometimes you can just deter the bear, not having to kill it.
Then go down the list:
12ga shotgun with Black magic slugs - the only choice for tundra with risk of Polar bears
45-70 Guide gun (either pre freedom or very recent)
Rossi R92 in 454 Casull (significantly lighter than the guide gun or shotgun but still packs a real punch)
Large caliber revolver, minimum 454 Casull
10mm semi auto pistol like G20, 29, 40 or some 1911.
Anything less than that you just need one round for - killing yourself to save the pain of being eaten alive.

How does one get a mining job in the middle of nowhere?
>>30497007
Also remember to make noise like a bear bell so you don't startle them. Also works for moose. Seriously, fuck moose.
I've read you are supposed to ram your arm down its throat. Supposedly they have a very strong gagging response.
>>30496911
If you throw left over food around the outskirts of camp, the bears will become your friends and only want to hug you.
>>30496911
Shotgun with hard cast slugs.
What about a semi auto shotty loaded with a mag of buckshot. What if I dump the entire mag into it. What if I treat the bear like the battleship Bismark?
Would I win?

Beretta Jetfire
>>30496911
do this OP. You'll become a legend in the mining community.
Bring your own crew of bears
Carry one of these around with you at all times
If bear comes, throw at bear as hard as you can

That looks like a good suit to show up to a Trump Rally in.
Go stand in front of the anti-Trump protesters and laugh it up.
>>30497143
This. Hands down the very best suggestion.
>>30497261
>COME AT ME BRO, the suit
>>30496911
a fat, slower friend and a knife.
>>30497162
>buckshot.
You won't get enough penetration to harm it significantly (might get lucky and put out its eyes though), you won't do enough blunt force trauma to it to do any real damage either. You might cause enough pain to make it go away, but you also might not. That's not a gamble you want to make.

>you see sergei, bear just want hug. and when bear hug you he is kill.
>>30496911
How'd you get that job senpai? I'm looking for something similar for either next summer or winter. No experience I'm no stranger to working hard with my hands (and I do technically have a college degree).
>>30497125
Really off-topic, but do you or anyone else in this thread know what moose tastes like? I'm curious.
>>30497348
Not him, but right now, that flavor of jobs is a little hard to come by because oil has busted and roughnecks slip into those kinds of deals.
>>30497321
Those poor suicidal fuckers. I guess if I was a godless killing machine I too would consider my best dreams to be the ones in which I am dying.
>>30497349
If you want to know so bad, go find out for yourself and never ask this question again.
Big Bowie knife 11 to 12" and a hard hittin 45-70 rifle
>>30497366
Nigger I don't live in a state that has moose, calm your stupid fucking tits down. I just want to know if it's worth the damn cost of the trip to find out or if I'm better off just eating venison and black bear here in Wisconsin and forgetting about it.
>not another bear

this
>>30497381
It's basically deer.
>>30496911
or this

>venison
>>30497388
Thank you. As much as I want to visit (and possibly live in desu) Alaska, I don't want to shell out a bunch of money I don't need to for the sake of trying meat that tastes like something I can get near-unlimited amounts of here.
>>30497434
Since we /ck/ now, any ausfags able to send me some frozen roo?

>mfw people ITT are jealous of OP going to work in rabour camp
>>30496911
Bear mace. You're more likely to get mauled if you use a sidearm.
