WOW! If only I had ever had THAT problem! I've backpacked the Colorado Rockies since late 1971. There was no ccw allowed at that time. Even when CO finally allowed CCW, it applied only to Colorado residents. I moved from the state in the mid-'70s, so could not carry concealed.
THAT meant that if it was raining or snowing I STILL had to leave my firearm exposed. In colder weather, such as May or October, I had to carry it exposed outside my jacket. I wish I could carry concealed in CO for just those reasons.
