. I had another area near a stream deep in some dark timber that was another great spot. Hunters camped there also. It happens. Sometimes what looks like a good camping spot is also a nice spot for the elk to hang out. 
When I was a kid my dad, stepmother, and friend of mine were coyote hunting "run n gun" in the truck. We'd stop and call then move on, etc. One spot we stopped, stepmother was sleeping in the truck and Dad went to run the speaker out. I suddenly got the most horri feeling like I was going to die, I mean I wanted to jump out of the bed of the truck and run. My buddy looked at me and said dude we need to go, stepmom woke up and started screaming "what's going on" and my dad was backpedaling with his shotgun saying "we're leaving we're leaving NOW". All happened at the same time within 2 minutes of stopping the truck. Never figured it out. Two years later we stopped nearby and did some walking looking for new spots to setup and found a human skull about 75 yards in the brush from where we had been parked.I dunno, was definitely strange. Been going out in the woods since I was a kid raccoon hunting and never been "scared of the dark". But for some odd reason I just did not want to be there at all. Talked to my wife about it last night as well and she said pretty much same thing you said, something was saying something. I don't know if it was all the frustration and being alone finally got the better of me or what. I go solo all the time but always home later, this was first time since I was a teenager that I spent days alone like that. When I was a dumb teenager I'd say see ya mom and dad, going out to the mountains and spend a week or 2 back in fishing and having fun alone sleeping under the stars. I did find an older thread on here from quite a few years ago that was very similar and a lot of guys chalked it up to getting older and wiser. From the talks of everyone the game warden had been making rounds so maybe you're right
Holy crap man, that gave me goosebumps. That's crazy. I'm not one to believe in hocus pocus or anything but I believe my mom was something special. This will be kind of long. Before her and my dad got together she used to go with a biker guy and she worked at a small gas station in Texas. They used to go for a ride after she got off work at like midnight or something and one night he showed up and asked if she was ready to go. She said no we aren't going, something will happen. He laughed I guess and was like funny let's go for our ride. She gave a hard no and he said well I'm gonna go. A few miles down the road a board had fallen off of a truck or something and the car in front hit it and it impaled him, had she been on the back, it would have gotten her as well. Fast forward years later to when I was a young kid back in the early 90s. My dad and his buddy went elk hunting religiously every November. I still remember the fights they had about him going, she said she didn't want him to go because something was wrong and was going to happen. Well he went and we got a call on the night of opening day, he was burned over 50% of his body in 3rd degree burns. She passed away in 2015 and 2 years ago I was going through a really nasty divorce, everything was going against me and I fell asleep on the piece of equipment I run at work. I woke up to her touching me and saying everything will be ok. I flew up and went out the door to make sure I wasn't dreaming. It was so surreal I have a hard time believing that it was only a dream. My girlfriend said something wasn't right and may have been my mom saying something.
Fascinating. My dad had some strong ESP as well, watched him either predict or cause things. Got some stories but for another thread. Really interesting reading that about your mom, sounds a lot like my dad and I've not heard of people like that other then him.
Sounds like a good stripper name.
