[quote=irfubar]When I lived in Oregon I used to ride my dirt bike on old logging roads and often would come across remote camps and I am not talking recreational camps, I am talking blue tarp, garbage strewn camps.
I suspect they were meth cooking camps, don't know for sure because I got the hell out of there.
So I started carrying a side arm while riding, would be foolish not to.
I also know in Humbolt and Mendacino county in Calif. they advised people to stay out of the hills during harvest sea"
Have run into similar camps in Colorado near the front range, but not while hunting. My thought is if you are a CCW type of person, there aren't many places you aren't prepared. Local conditions might reinforce that.
The Wisconsin deal was a bad one, but definitely atypical if you read up on it.
