Bear attack or homicide in Montana

[mike.adams.467]

The things some people consider likely risks in their lives is fascinating. Do you also put on a crash helmet when driving in a car? Do you tie into an anchor with a harness when you get on a step ladder to change a light bulb? Head injuries from car accidents and falls from ladders are way more likely than being attacked by animal or human in the backcountry. Get a grip. Go into the wilderness and enjoy.

Now that you mention it......

The decoy tent is also very handy when you have another type of unexpected camp visitor.

Man I take too much stuff as it is. If I start setting up decoy camps then I might have to rethink where I'm hunting. I always sleep with a gun and I do find it hard at times to relax when I'm sleeping alone.

Setup the decoy camp and then a decoy blind to spook game to your real hunt location.. it’s not hard to figure out. The only hard part should be what camo are you gonna dress your blowup doll in

The level of paranoia expressed in this thread is disturbing. Stay home if you’re scared to go outside.

I’ve found two decoy tents to be ideal - then it’s a shell game to find me, and people always guess wrong. It’s science - millions of shell games around the world have proved it. Has anyone ever heard of a camper chopped up with two decoys? No.

It is also good when you're not sure what tent is best, gives a good excuse to buy the top 3 choices hahaha

Me and my cousin were hunting in the Pecos wilderness, coming back to camp for lunch and we ran into two pretty attractive women hiking alone. We were 7 or 8 miles back with horses and mules, so it was somewhat surprising. We both looked at each other and said, "did that just really happen?"

Our buddy who had stayed at camp to trout fish and tend to the animals never saw them and thought we were pulling his leg when we got back and told him.

After I set up my decoy tent I like to dig punji pits and an elaborate tunnel system into the side of the mountain incase I have to evade capture/ killing.

Put those babes in a Target once you're back home and your relativity scale readjusts and they become 4's.

You're probably right, it was like day six

Have “CAUTION! EXPERIMENTAL OFFGRID SEWAGE TREATMENT SITE” printed on your tent fly.

Just hang a bunch of stuff like this in the trees around your camp and no one will mess with you.

Well when woken up from a very deep sleep you might be in sleep paralysis so self defense would be hard then. I had a person start to unzip my tent door in the middle of the night years ago in northern CA and I was in that state. I wanted to yell at them but it was almost impossible to do even that...all I could manage was a muffled mmmmrrrr a couple times and that took everything I had. It was a struggle to get fully awake and i wasn't scared...just could not yet control my own body in that sleep state. They must have heard me as they paused, zipped up the tent and wandered away. Probably they had a midnight bathroom break and stumbled upon the incorrect tent...mine.
I stayed there in that campground the rest of my hunt and had no further issues.
I was dayhunting out of a campground as where I was it didn't make sense to go further in as I was getting into deer every day.

I wouldn't have minded some sort of alarm though as it was disturbing. Waking up from that deep of a sleep I would not have been able to do anything with my firearm if needed...it was super hard to get fully awake fast.

In Afghanistan I slept with my m4 beside me and slept very lightly becuase of night attacks we would have to defend from. I don't want to go hunting and have to sleep that light and then effectively hunt the next day. Maybe some sort of camp intrusion alarm would be a good thing if its light enough to carry with you.
