The Fine Line

64. A Hunter Falls In The Forest


Listen Later

If a hunter falls in the forest and no one is around to hear it, do they make a sound?
Of course they do. They call for help and people come running.
On this episode of The Fine Line, we look at at how a hunter happened to trip and fall in the middle of nowhere, in the middle of the thickest of timber you can imagine, just as the sun was going down. The response led to an all-night mission from Teton County Search & Rescue.
This story features TCSAR Chief Advisor Cody Lockhart, hunters Charlie Short and Jeremy Dietz, and some deep Wyoming wisdom about a rough and tumble rescue in a wild location.
