Forest hunters etiquette question

[manumuskin]

Remember that one hunter who thought he caught me on camera walking through his area when we were looking for arrowheads? I got pretty heated being blamed for something that I didn't do. He was armed so I didn't take it further but that rubbed me the wrong way.

Yes I remember.Thought you was about to break out a can of whoop ass on that big fella

Agree with those saying he should not have been blocking the road, if his intent was to walk off and leave his truck there to prevent others from accessing the area. Was he still unpacking his truck when you went the alternate route?

As far as what you described about the situation, it seems to me that a smile and a 'hello' between you two followed by a civil conversation would probably have led to a nice compromise with you getting your photos that you were hunting for and him getting his deer. In my opinion, neither of you was intentionally being a 'dick', there was just no communication besides some gesturing.
