Strangely enough, I was reading about Albert Ostman in a book last week. It certainly is quite a tale. Memo to self: if going camping in Sasquatch territory, keep a loaded gun handy.

~~~

“My equipment consisted of one 30- 30 Winchester rifle, I had a special home-made prospecting pick, axe on one end, pick on the other. I had a leather case for this pick which fastened to my belt, also my sheath knife. “

According to the story, he had his gun in his sleeping sack when he got grabbed in his sleep, and because he was slung, he didn’t have room to grab it and use it all tight inside.
