Eaten by a bear?

You are foolish if you are not packing some sort of large caliber in remote regions such as this. It's also commonly known that sometimes people go "bear hunting" and return with less people than they left with. Remote areas can be lawless in that way when nature is a scapegoat.

Probably forgot most bears spend most of their time on ground and she was too in the habit of looking up for drop bears.

Just days before her disappearance, Ms Lane posted on a local Facebook page asking if she could join other hikers to avoid trouble on the trail.

"Can I join your hiking group so I don't get eaten alive?"

"No."

Hey, I thought Canadians were supposed to be nice.

Then someone saw the post, creeped on her profile and liked it, stalked her down out in the woods, raped and killed her?

The prefect crime since it's likely a bear would get to her remains before authorities.

It's the prefect word to misspell because it's not actually misspelled.

If you're referring to the pig farm, that's just the back end of the property used by canuck elites for many horrendous crimes.

Ain't that ironic. A person from a country where literally every living creature is not just deadly but actively wishes to harm you is killed by Yogi Bear while visiting the country renowned for its politeness. You should have stayed home, Shelia.

Probably hates guns as well. Well I hate getting eaten by bears since they will eat you while you're alive taking nice chunks out of you, removing your arms and legs first.

I have to wonder though, how hard would it be to legally get a gun in a foreign country to go hiking inna woods?

Yeah almost impossible. I just wouldn't go that far out in the bush without my 12 gauge. At least some bear spray, a crossbow and some diapers if I couldn't get a gun.

Yeah I think you're right. She even knew better, but then went alone anyways. At least the bears get a free meal out of the deal.

I was visiting friends in that area and headed off to ride a local well known trail. A couple klicks in I came across a bear on the trail ahead of me. I turned around. Speaking with my friend later about it he mentioned that when he encounters a bear while running those same trails he just goes around them. That was a few years ago, The guy is still alive which just goes to show something I guess.

Turns out she's a faceberg user.

The main road in. She went up the valley to the right, past that ridge. Looks like bear country.

Go three miles east of bear lake to summer lake, there's a another single girl in the middle of the lake with a streetview pic. Possibly others in the camp by the smoke...

If there's cell service there, they could be like that Russian girl in the woods who called her mom to say: "Mom, the bear is eating me." (search quote for links)

Voat sure hates links. What a mess.

Good, thinning of the herd. You go out to experience nature, you should be prepared for nature to want to experience you.
