Missing Oregon Hunter

I hope the guy is okay. The fact that they heard shots during the night bodes well, but 3 days later and no signs doesn't. He's "experienced" and a "survivalist."

I hope he gets found.

Curious if it was the standard 3 consecutive shots for an SOS or what the details were on that. If not it would seem to me like he was shooting at something which I would assume he was attacked by an animal at that point since he was already tagged out and it was well into the night. Either way, hope they find him soon.

Last i heard, the shots were at night and not all at once so they were fairly confident they were meant as a signal. Not easy to be seen in that terrain.

Doesn’t sound good if he was making noise one night and now isn’t but praying for the best outcome.

Rain storm coming in tonight with some wind. Heavy rain. Thought and prayers for him.
