I'm old, semi-retired and still good enough shape to hump a backpack, so I'm planning on some probably solo 10 to 14 day sojourns into ONP and ONF with the Dungeness drainages, in particular, this year as they are all in my backyard. If I do pack with someone, it's usually my brother or one of my girls and my RV is a bivy sack and a 90 liter backpack. Bear season here in WA (don't get me started on spring bear...) starts August 1 and late cat season ends tomorrow, the end of April so I'm usually packing an -06 or a 300 RUM and my own hand loads. I'm not totally pro kill, a corpse would solve the issue, but the personal consequences of the aftereffects need to be taken into account. Even if it was a real sasquatch one killed, certainly someone isn't going to like what you did and is going to legally come after you, or maybe in your mind, you just misrecognized a prank pulling human in a suit, or perhaps an out of season bear. My first action afterward would be to hire a lawyer just because.
