Absolutely sound advice someone would be an idiot not to heed. I run a CO detector, and combo CO / smoke in my camper or tent when I'm running the portable big buddy heater. Sixty bucks for a couple CO detectors is cheap insurance to make sure you and everyone in your camp wakes up the next morning.

Read of a couple guys and a teenage boy a while back on an elk hunt that died from it. Thought they were safe because they were using the camper furnace, which exhausts outside. The furnace exhaust pipe had popped loose on a rough road on the way in. All 3 were found dead, having never left their beds.



Guns are responsible for killing as much as Rosie O'Donnel's fork is responsible for her being FAT.
