I think he's a very lucky man don't ever under estimate the power of GOD and a 410 shotgun.   For sure this guy wasn't alone and maybe an angel was with him too for sure.                     BigBill

Seeing stories like this makes me think about the early fur trappers and the dangers they must have faced too.  Think about it sleeping in the open with a blackpowder rifle that may or may not work in grizz country?

BigBill,

it is something to think about...makes you wonder how they did it so many years ago?


Ever see the movie "Man in the Wilderness"??           BigBill

Was that Hugh Glass? His high school coach told him that if he was ever attacked by a grizzly he should just, "Walk it off".
