When we go hunting in the woods, we feel invulnerable and impervious; having a gun and asserting yourself on top of the food chain will do that to you. Things can change quickly, though, as you'll find out with the video below.
Mystery and murder can be said to be the major themes of the stories above. The most terrifying story is probably the first one. Not only was there a murderer running around in the woods, killing hunters, but that murderer was also stalking a father and his son as they completed a right of passage. He was toying with them using the severed head of one of his kills; if that's not completely deranged, we don't know what is.
So keep your wits about you and follow your gut; you never know when they might save your life out there.
I have spent a lot of time in the woods, and only ran into other hunters. However, with the mfg of drugs in isolated areas, you have to be on your toes. There always is the chance you can run into the hermit, who lives off the grid, but most of the time they are harmless. Then you have the anti social nut cases, and others hiding from the law. I am almost always armed, except for some scouting excursions.
I’m currently caring for my elderly parents (mother has Dementia, father is deaf). After they die, I’ll be homeless. I was planning on hitchhiking to the Alaskan wilderness to try to survive there. I thought the ONLY things I would have to worry about was bears or packs of wolves. But after hearing these stories, I’m afraid of meeting serial killers out there. I’m a little freaked out.
You have a better chance of running into a deranged maniac in the City than you do in th e woods.
BULLSHIT! Didn’t watch more than a few seconds.
“Remington 798 sniper rifles”
Another idiot who either knows NOTHING about firearms or hunting, or a political loonie-toon intentionally trying to make hunters look stupid.
AND THIS PAGE IS PERPETUATING THAT BULLSHIT
