Counter Assault, the Kalispell Montana based bear and self-defense pepper spray manufacturer, is one of the largest companies of its kind in the United States, distributing its sprays worldwide to a wide range of people from hikers in Glacier Park to hunters in Alaska. The company got its first big break in 1989 when Exxon purchased thousands of bear deterrent canisters to protect its crews cleaning up the Exxon Valdez oil spill. "We're recognized as the leader in bear spray", said Pride Johnson, who owns Counter Assault with his wife Kirsten. Bear spray was born in response to helplessness and frustration over the regular, violent, and often fatal encounters between humans and bears. Counter Assault, an industry leader for over 30 years has led the charge for the longest distance, strongest formulation and longest discharge time for decades. The results speak for themselves... Our team has found that capsaicin, a chili extract, is highly effective in what's now called bear spray. Counter Assault bear spray emits a powerful cloud of 2% capsaicin and related capsaicinoid products that, temporarily and harmlessly disables a bear's ability to smell, breathe, see, hear, and think clearly while not permanently harming the animal. Our product is not only "grizzly tough" it is POLAR BEAR tough. Always carry the "RED CAN" and practice bear safety in the field.
