I don't hunt much in grizzly country. But when I'm fishing in grizzly country? I bring the 45-70. I've had a few encounters with black bears. I don't want to have those same encounters with grizzlies. That being said. I won't let the fear stop me from hiking.
And there is no law prohibiting firearms on crown or private land within any specific seasons, except for provincial parks and specific natural areas or deemed zones that may have those restrictions and you would have to refer to the regs for those areas.
