If I were in his situation, had a way of communication and locator beacon like he did, and had made contact with rescuers like his friends did before they left, I would have strongly encouraged my friends to move on without me. I would have insisted. "My life is better than your vacation"

My boys and I were hiking down Mt Jefferson in NH years ago when we came up on a woman and her teenage daughter. We were still a ways above treeline and the daughter had sprained her knee and couldn't walk. I had a neoprene knee brace that I gave them and the woman asked how she could get it back to me. I told her it was not problem because we were not leaving them until they were down. We carried the girl down and got help from other hikers as they came up on us. Everybody that came along chipped in with getting the girl down.

I would have insisted. I'm hate to sound like I would 2nd guess you but I can see a possible difference. Im assuming you would be holding a hand cannon and IDK if this guy had one or would be as proficient with it as you or I would hopefully be. If it said he was armed in the article, then forgive me I missed it. I know the percentage of predatory black bear attacks is said to be small but and insured and elderly man might inspire a hungry one past the point of no return. That would be my first fear. ï¿½Whatï¿½s good for me may not be good for the weak minded.ï¿½ Captain Gus McCrae- Texas Rangers
