The bodies of two hunters have been found in Colorado

Which tPBers live in Comorado I know there are a few
 

On a separate point, I knew this girl & the rumors I’ve heard are that he was at the bar (drunk & doing blow) & someone told him she was cheating on him so he drove home kicked the door in, shot her in the face & left her choking on her own blood.

If they’re hunting where I’m thinking around the Trinidad area that area is pretty tough and dense as hell. Guessing they got lost and hypothermia. I just don’t remember there being any moose in that area when I was hunting and moose usually aren’t up at the altitudes where it will get cold enough in September to be too big of a problem. Weird story - they seem like semi-experienced hunters that should have had a plan.

It’s been 20 years since I hunted in Colorado, but at the time the only moose were in the Walden/North Park area.

Report also says they were hunting elk, which makes sense.

Yeah, Walden area I couldn’t walk a mile without seeing moose. I’ve ran into moose around RMN and Steamboat too but I’ve put quite a few miles on my boots down along that southern border (further east than these boys were though) and never heard of moose being around there. Awesome elk and muley numbers and genetics though.

It sounds like they found a lot of camping gear in their truck. Going to guess these boys put on light day packs for a day trip and got lost. If you don't download your ONX maps offline before leaving the trailhead it can get sketchy with service in the mountains really quick but damn you at least want to know what direction your trail is heading and always know how to get back to your truck.

First one I saw up there was in the early 80’s. I was fly fishing. Standing waist deep in the middle of the Biff's Butthole Surfers river and a big bull came crashing through the brush to the edge of the river. I was pretty sure I was going to get dead.

Edit: lmao at the auto correct for the M ichigan river.

If that moose decided you were a problem, being waist deep in water you would have been toast. That moose would have been able to bounce around full speed in there while you're stuck moving about 10 feet per minute

No doubt. I had a .357 in a shoulder holster that would have pissed it off.

Being in waist deep water don’t help my perception, but Jesus that thing was huge.
 
As others noted, they most likely got lost. I've done my share of hiking and camping trips through remote areas and you'll occasionally see pics posted up of missing people. They are not fully prepared for where they're at, they think they are heading in the right direction when they are not, and ultimately succumb to the elements.
 
Sounds like hypothermia.
Couple kids from the south that weren’t prepared.
 
Why the fuck do we continue to come up with new terms to replace commonly held ones.

Unalived = Dead
Unhoused = Homeless
Why does this bother you? It’s a little silly but I couldn’t imagine getting butthurt about it

The unalived thing is something they do to get around the algorithms. It’s not a PC thing
