Utah's Unita Mountains are big/empty & unforgiving

Sad way to go. One mile from the camp and lost in the snowstorm. I'm surprised that his body didn't show up sooner.

I was asked to read the Bible over the phone to a precious lady who will likely leave soon too. I thought that I'd have another opportunity to share the gospel with her the next week......The Drs gave up on her lung cancer, so she has been sent to a hospice. Life is fragile and short. That is why I wished that I shared this with her.

"Crumrine’s remains were found about a mile from where he and his group had been camping, according to Thursday's news release."

There was a guy from the Flathead elk hunting who went missing and the S&R spent a few weeks looking all over hell until someone went back over an area already searched and found his body sitting next to a pine tree, compound bow at his side, apparent heart attack. He was about a mile from his truck too.

It's a shame but when my time comes, I'd rather it be something like this than in a nursing home.

In 2011 I hunted the Uinta's for Mountain Goat with my brother(who had the tag). It's big country, not surprising that it took awhile to find this guy.

A good friend of mine died at age 58 of a heart attack while goose hunting.

Still beats dying in a hospital bed.

Take lots of pictures.

The majority of fellow hunters in my photo albums are gone.

It was an honor to walk the hunting fields with most all.

It may beat a hospital bed for him but it is very hard on the family. Not knowing and hoping!

If a family member of mine had died a mile from camp....I would've found them. Trust me.

In this day and age.......any idiot can use a GPS.

Bear crap has a certain cachet about it, especially if mixed with bear bells and a hint of pepper...

...bird crap not so much..

We picked up an archery elk hunter in the Uinta Mountains on part of our trip that took us from Vernal Utah to Lone Tree Wyoming. First part of September this year and the snow had the place covered up. We were in 4WD going slow and saw him sitting by a road sign. His truck was 2 or 3 miles away uphill. It is beautiful country and in the past I've seen a good many deer and elk.

I had a great uncle that died while camping with his wife and a friend on a fishing trip. He had a heart attack and it took forever for the ambulance to get there and it was too late. It was hard on his wife for a while and then she realized that it was what he would have wanted, doing something he really liked, not in a hospital bed tied up with tubes.

Much to be said for this.

No argument there.
I've hunted in the same area and I'm sure he had a beautiful view in his special place.
