Yep. Keep the bear spray easily accessible. No animal will keep charging. They won’t be able to see.

Bear spray is good. But that's not true. Lots of bears have attacked after a full dose of bear spray. You can shoot a bear in the face with a shot gun and still get attacked...or a musket (see The Revenant).
Bears terrify me but only because I hike with a dog. If it was just me I wouldn't care at all. Just keep your eyes open and spray handy and you won't get in any trouble. While I'm not the guy to give advice on animal oneship these days, it doesn't hurt to have a kind, calm, non combative aura about you in general.
