Yeah this is not good at all. It makes me wonder sometimes when I am out in the middle of nowhere that crazy sh!t happens when you least expect it. Be safe out there.
^This seems as likely as anything else, messing with a mans wife or money are, historically, great ways to get dead....Quote:

Maintain situation awareness at all times, Glock on the hip for quick-react, and SBR (unchambered) w/ spare mags in the backpack just in case things get really interesting.....Quote:

Doubtful. The vast majority of those are in warehouses and residential houses. Not up on Mt Herman. Hard to say what happened until the investigation moves forward.Quote:

Some initial versions of the story tried to promote the agenda and imply his death could be the result of unsafe target shooting. Hopefully, that narrative will be completely discredited as more facts are produced.
However, the events do reinforce the concepts of "anywhere, anytime" when one could experience a lethal encounter, and ALWAYS being armed when you are "out and about", even while exercising/recreating.
Is a .38 snub or LCP carried in mountain bike saddle bag going to stop someone from killing you in a targeted attack or gang initiation killing? Maybe, maybe not, but at least you have a tool of resistance that could turn the tables in your favor, or at least cause a break-off of the attack.

The El Paso County Sheriff's Office is investigating another crime that happened in the same area where mountain biker, Timothy Watkins, was killed.
The sheriff's office says they have gotten reports of a man threatening mountain bikers with a hatchet.
Suspect maybe linked to 2 little girls murder in Indiana.

I have spent countless hours on some of the wells along Chalk Bluffs Rd, late into the night as well, and there are some weird/strange people there. If you have to go, go prepared.Quote:

5 acre pot grow found in White River National Forest, complete with irrigation system dispensing chemicals to keep wildlife away. This was a big one, but there are lots more out there that aren't nearly as big that the growers will do anything to protect.
This is quickly turning into one of those "truth is stranger than fiction" stories.Quote:
