found a make shift stone altar and a bunch of satanic literature, candles etc. along a drainage from a pond. it made me look around with my hackle hairs up! creeped me out & i dont creep out easily. X2 had melted candles and satanic symbols made with salt.... about 15 feet away was a noose at the end of about 50 feet of rope hanging off about a 75 foot bluff i never went down there and I never went back! I was 17 no gun I hightailed it out of those woods! It was deep in there too...

The Mark June story would be tough to top. I still remember everything about that morning. The misty foggy darkness of the early am. The fact I was so focused on "do I have a mink" that I was entirely focused on that operation. Oh, and the fact that in those times, I was HUSTLING to thwart any thieves from stealing any mink I had. And how the ma and pop gas station with the phone booth wasn't open in the early am and no one was around when I called the police in my town (I had no idea who to call in that area about 30 miles from Fenton). And I think back to the fact of how I never again set that spot. It wasn't a honey hole anyway. And I didn't need to find anything else at that spot ever again. As I recall, I was about 20 at the time and so was the person murdered by his druggie pal. Blessings, Mark

Mark, it is a good thing I never found anything like that at the age of 20, it might have cured me from not only ever trapping that spot, but maybe cured me from ever trapping period.
I got myself a seniors' GPS. Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination, it tells me why I wanted to go there.

Was bow hunting whitetails one time and was walking out at end of sit, near dark. A bull moose appeared from the woods and made a beeline for me for me in the wide open. He was rutted right up and came real hard to about 20 yards, grunting.
I thought he was going to demolish me and an arrow at his face wasn’t going to do a whole bunch. Luckily the wind swirled because me shouting at him didn’t seem to be working.
So not overly scary but pretty intense. I've had a couple encounters with moose that were not fun at all. About as bad as treeing a coon in a pasture with a Holstien bull.
