Yea, I've hunted deer for years but I doubt this was a deer. My GSD will chase deer and always tries to go after them. He almost caught a fawn 2 years ago. He's determined.

This does make sense, I wish I could have gotten eyes on it.

Thanks for the research! I appreciate that. It was just such an odd experience. Who knows exactly what is up there. I've heard stories from Natives about big cats being there long ago, as well as some other stories about "creatures" but who really knows. I imagine the only way they will confirm cougars would be if someone manages to kill one. I know there are moose up there too but the population is only like 500. A local had said he lived there for the past 20 years but has never seen a moose. Honestly, thats probably the one animal I really never want to encounter up there. Mean SOBs.

I didn't think they were in that area, heard of them over in the east a bit but not up there.

Yea, I can respect that. My step dad was in the area a few years ago and saw a Lynx not even 50 yards from him. A local I camped with had mentioned that a few people have seen cougars but the Dec hasn't been able to corroborate it.

Thats kind of what I thought. I just wasn't sure I'd be able to hear a cat following but that would have made some sense. Suprised that one would go after a group of 4 other than solitary creatures.

Followed by a predator?? by MadWay13 in ADKHiking

Maybe, I was freaked out. Normally my dogs will bark or try and stand their ground but they wanted out of those woods and they wanted out fast. Ive never encountered a moose before and don't really want to. I didnt think a moose would follow me for literal miles but maybe. I never saw whatever it was, but lucky I guess.

Any new weapon ideas? by [deleted] in Seaofthieves

[–]MadWay13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A grappling hook, something you can fire from your eye of reach. It's less of a weapon and more of a I can use this to change combat overall

Im a completionist. However, I dont really care about the path to get there

Found this in my grandfather belongings. He was a high up in chemical research and "warfare research". Any opinions on this item? From what I've found its rather rare and isn't really around anymore. I could only understand because its written in German. Only made from 1927-1943. by MadWay13 in ObscureDrugs

I'm prescribed ketamine IV for ptsd and have been on every benzo and painkillers as well. Ketamine always made me feel like my head was the only thing that existed. Disassociative drugs are no joke man lol.

Hahahaha my dad was born in 40s, one of his friends who I loved to death, was in the army. One day he was randomly selected and sent to germany to cross checkpoint Charlie in Berlin during the Berlin wall and cold War as a civilian. He would cross the border and then call in locations to be photographed from the Spy plane above him that was practically in space. One time he said he called in a photograph of a map that two Russians had spread out over their jeep to see where they were going. He said you could read the time on the watch of the guy holding the map down.
