Yes I have. It was back in 1997, I was mountain biking above Bonneville dam. It was a long tough climb up to Wauna point. I looked up from the trail and about 50 feet or so and I saw a full grown Gouger walking up the trail I was on. He turned his head and looked at me and then walked off the trail
Unfortunately for the cougar yes. I hit one on HWY 26 about four years ago on the other side of Prineville, I called the police department to come out and put it out of its misery because I paralyzed it. Glad to have the police report to show the Insurance company because they thought I was joking.
Public land needs to have logging/thinning/brush management and close dispersed camping within 10 miles of Sisters/Bend, especially during summer months.
First of all, that agent you had on was an absolute uninformed idiot. Where is the compassion. Weather the storm. What storm. It’s because the insurance companies are having to pay out after collecting billions of dollars. Boo Hoo, now we must pay. There is no fire here,
I nearly shot one when I caught it stalking. It scared off before I could get on them.
ReplyI have seen a huge momma cougar in between lapine and sunriver on state recreation road
