In reply to what is the reality of the dangers from other humans on the trail? posted by Backcountry (Guest) on December 14, 2007 at 1:13:16 am EST

Since I have been spending my time in the outdoors, plus a couple of "required" projects, I had not looked at this thread, nor the blog that has generated so much posting. I took a look at it, re-read it several times, followed the links, discovered I have some familiarity with the area, also noted that this is a couple years old, and tried to piece together what actually went on. There are a number of statements in the description that just don't ring true. However, I have neither the time nor interest in searching the police reports or talking to the originator of the story. rdavis is right that much of what has been posted in this thread about the incident is speculation in the absence of factual information that can be confirmed.

I would suggest to the moderators and owners that this has already gone too far. rdavis is right that this is an outdoor forum, not a self defense one. It is way off the original topic, as well as way out of the realm of Trailspace. Perhaps the thread should be locked.
