Just got done reading this book. Its an amazing account of survival in the most extreme circumstances. And something strange they encounter. https://www.amazon.com/Long-Walk-True-Story-Freedom/dp/149302261X/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1540571957&sr=8-2&keywords=The+long+walk&dpID=51CUfy8StiL&preST=_SY291_BO1,204,203,200_QL40_&dpSrc=srch *spoiler alert* Basically its about a Polish Cavalry officer that is imprisoned by the Soviets during WW2. He is sentenced to 25 years hard labor in a gulag in Siberia. Just getting to the camp many perish, the camp is a logging camp on the Lena river. He escapes with several others and they head due south through the tiaga, then the Gobi and finally the Himalayas. They encounter two creatures in the Himalayas. And the encounter is not fleeting.

Nah, you weren't doing it wrong, NatFoot, because I never bagged a monster buck either LOL.

I see these in the Eastern Sierra's up on a mountain close to 11,000 feet during winter and spring. They are straight line with far spacing. They come up from over a Ridgeline from the next valley over. Been seeing the tracks the last few years on this very dangerous mountain to even hike on, and why I haven't gone to check them out. Observing the tracks with binoculars from across the way and can tell that they're not bear or any other animal, except for maybe a Bigfoot.

Thanks for sharing that. Nice.

Welllll ... as of September 9th, still existed. How 'bout "know"? It's a good, and fitting, word. MIB

Maybe this will work better.

Great find Norse. I have the HPG Original Kit Bag (OKB). The Emerson is wider and taller so it would fit a longer handgun. I have a long-slide Glock 40MOS and it fits in my OKB with no problem. My Ruger Toklat just barely fits...and I mean barely. The Emerson would provide the additional room. I've always said the OKB is the best piece of outdoor equipment I have ever had. I'd have to look further into the Emerson but it is in the rare field of options for someone who has a large-bore revolver.
