This is an interesting story I came across. This guy is just wandering around bumming in people's cabins apparently. He could possibly be an outcast from the FLDS church. Has anyone from the southern Utah/Arizona border heard about this already? Interesting....:nono2:
Yikes

Hell yeah ...and breaking in and shooting up the place skills. And pooping in cookware skills. He's a real roll model. :roll:Quote:

Any ability of this person to survive is lost on me due to his criminal behavior.
Yeah, seems like cheating if the ability to live off the land includes breaking in and robbing. Not really the kind of douchebag I'd commend.Quote:

And Brute, I really don't understand how Obama has anything to do with my disgust or your admiration of this thief. :ne_nau:
I've built several cabins in this area(not sure if any of my customers were victims)
I've also spent a considerable amount of time wandering around this area. It would be extremely difficult to find someone who was familiar with the area and didn't want to be found.
But, criminals usually make a mistake leading to capture, I guess we'll see.
Just yanking your chain..Quote:

Kurt, every time I see this I think of the ride you took us on across Swain Creek. That was some rugged country with the odd cabin here and there.

I hope it turns out well, fear is causing many people to not use a huge chunk of real estate.
Also--while the focus is on "this" mountain man, I can tell you--he is not the only year round resident living in similar fashion, in this area.
