Thanks all for the responses. The forum is great for stuff like this!
While I've been telling myself the chances are low, it's the risk of an experience like Winni83's that worries me. Although I do not hunt myself, I have a friend who is a bow hunter, and he always goes out with a handgun too, just in case.
I picked up bear spray at the outdoors store in Wolfeboro, and it came with small holster I can clip onto the back of my belt. The guy in the store said he's sold a lot this year
