Wait a minute!

As you’ve told the story, you three have now all drawn your weapons and a guy is standing naked while having his weapon drawn and you don’t finish the story???

C’mon, we have to hear the ending of that one!!

[Glacier Honey]

Well, it was one of the scariest times of my life and I remember my heart sank and I knew in an instance I could shoot the guy. He was naked from the waist down and had a small revolver and we were about 30 yards when we saw him. At first we thought the dogs had come across as bear or mountain lion and they would not come when called which is unusual so we ran forward only to see him pointing his gun at our dogs.

Linda and I never said a word to each other but we each drew our revolver and pointed at him and no one said a word. The dogs were circling him and my Shepard and her dog had fangs bared. My lab, she was just barking in an alarming tone pacing back and forth. No one said a word. He had a day pack leaning against the tree and after a minute or so he tossed his gun beside his pack and put his hands up. We retrieved out snarling dogs backed away. We told him if he even attempted to follow us he would never be found.

Although we both stayed very very calm, I fell apart back at the safety of our campsite. Rob and Ben then spent the afternoon looking for him but they never found him and we reported it to the Rangers.

To this day I believe Linda and I would not have made it if we were not armed or had our beloved dogs came upon him first. He was up to no good and our dogs sensed it. I have never seen them react like that before or to this day.
