Mud verses mountain lion?
« on: May 21, 2018, 10:59:34 AM »
 Mud frequents the area where the mountain biker was killed by the lion.

 I would bet on Mud escaping with a few bites/claw marks and his life.
 
 Any additional precautions in mind for your next ride in that area Mud?

Camo biking outfit (spandex leggings - no shorts - or if shorts have legs camo tatooed) and new camo paint job.
Make vegetable broth based spray to douse yourself before each ride.

No precautions.  I do ride occasionally in that general area.  Up river from there I do a fair amount of solo "exploring".  Will  not be taking any precautions with the exception to remain my normal ornery self.  Most of the area's I have been hitting up if something was to happen it would most likely take a while to find the body.  They would start with finding the car.  With the bicycle stuff they would find the car then the bike.  Hound dogs should work unless it is raining.  Best of luck and

One chomp and all they would get would be bone.
Unless you cracked and they got marrow they would let go and look elsewhere for some MEAT  :lol: :arf:

What a sad event. Where I grew up...that was the one animal we always suspected was around. Especially around the Crystal Springs area where I ran in collage since that was a nature preserve.

Glad I only ran into the occasional BobCat.

At least Mr Mud has a dog, who would smell the cat.

I think Mr Mud needs to buy a Glock.

for the price of a Glock I could by a new rack.

Only take the dog when exploring, not when putting in routes or climbing up stuff or rapping down stuff.  Do not trust him enough to not jump off.

When rappeling are you placing bolts? I hear it’s the most efficient way to establish a route.

I have not rap bolted a route as of yet, but I am seriously contemplating it.  I am also looking at some solo belay devices.

For some of the stuff I am definitely rapping in to inspect prior to bolting.

Just strap a kettle bell on the front of your harness and climb. It will give you the same feel and sense of suckurity.

Once you go down, you may not want to place on lead.

I still think you need a Glock.
