a sheep hunter passed away from a bear attack the other day in southern alberta, makes a guy think twice about doing a solo trip

Wow, safety is not something to take lightly when hunting! Feel for the mans family. :(

Sad story. Those goats are in tough country.

Last year I tested myself, to see if I could pull off a goat or a sheep hunt. Finding them was the easy part, getting to them with a camera was impossible for me. Because of a crazy inner ear thing, I found myself in an extremely dangerous situation. I can imagine that exhaustion from moving a downed animal may have played a roll in getting this individual into trouble. The goats that I found were in the most precarious places, getting them out would have required a team with climbing gear.

Amen, hvyhitter.

Prayers will be made for his family. As terrible as this is, he at least died doing something he loved. Please don't think I am making light of his death, but as hvyhitter indicated, there can be worse circumstances under which to die.
