The behavior of the hunter over several months was crazy and risky.
YES!
Once literally miles from anything on a seldom-used trail, backcountry Colorado two guys headed in wearing street clothes/gym shoes, carrying nothing a foot of snow on the ground, late afternoon.
They ask a couple of odd questions if we had seen anyone?
The two of us picked up the pace and looked back often.
We made it to the car before dark and left. No way would we stay there! No other cars in the campground?
We had been out for four days with a tent, bags, rope, rack...
Yes, I was packing, my partner was not.
I still wonder what that was all about???
That is a very creepy story.

A buddy and I fixed up a cabin years ago and it kept getting broken into and stuff stolen. Neighbor across the road had the same thing happen to them.
One weekend, the neighbor and a buddy were at their cabin and went back into town. Came back after an hour or two and their cabin had been broken into while they were in town.
They figured it was a squatter and so went looking for them. The squatter got the drop on them and had a handgun and told both men to get on their knees. One of the guys had a .38 i the small of his back and grabbed it and shot the guy dead.
The shooter told my buddy later that he had emptied the gun on the squatter but kept shooting because he was so amped up.
