Wife and I just got home we were truned around at the entrence.  we got there around 11:45 or so, we were going to see if we could get to Paradise.  We knew something was going on because we were passed by around 15 patrol cars from various agencies on the way up. There were two forest service rangers turning people around and the enterence. We could see a number of officers just up the road. But the Rangers told us they could not get into detail about what had happened. One of them did tell me I would hear about it on the news.

They were very professional during what must be a very difficult time for them. I hear he is still at large. I hope they get him, but not before he has to spend a colder than hell night in the woods.

Tough to read this one. Prayers go out to the kids and her husband....
Hope they find this *censored*.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Maybe this sick f*&k will run into a pack of wolves during is cold stay in woods. Two problems solved.
Now therefore, please take your weapons, your quiver and thy bow, and go out to the field and hunt game for me

I may not have alot but what I have I got honest.....

I'd rather be hated for what I am then be loved for what I'm not

Is it me, or are people getting dumber

Prayers sent for the family.  What a senseless crime and loss of life!  I don't hope they catch the killer, I pray that they KILL him!

Very very sad to hear.

I think they should call in an artillery team. Maybe that will show the next pos that tried to do this they mean business. I only hope that if he is caught alive they let the husband have some time before they take him away.

Condolences to the family
Team nubby!
