fenderfour Posted October 8, 2007 Posted October 8, 2007 People shouldn't be allowed to hunt mushrooms like that and cost the taxpayers money for the rescue effort. Quote
archenemy Posted October 8, 2007 Posted October 8, 2007 and it changed the hunter's gender? Wow, that is some mushroom. Quote
EWolfe Posted October 8, 2007 Posted October 8, 2007 Rhodedendron is a scary place! And those mushroom-hunters are a territorial lot! Quote
AlpineK Posted October 8, 2007 Posted October 8, 2007 Mushroom hunting can be scary. I remember as a kid going mushroom hunting with my folks; while out looking for good eats these idiot hunters showed up and started blasting into the woods we were in. I'm no hunter, but I don't think blasting randomly into the woods is the kind of tactic that will get you a nice deer to eat. Quote
cj001f Posted October 8, 2007 Posted October 8, 2007 mushrooms are fun. perhaps they picked the right kind? Quote

rmncwrtr Posted October 8, 2007 Posted October 8, 2007 From oregonlive.com The Clackamas County sheriff's office reports that Ruth Kathleen Thompson, 53, of Sandy, reported missing late Sunday night by a mushroom hunting companion, walked out on her own Monday morning to a home in the Rhododendren area. Thompson was last seen about 5 p.m. She was not carrying a cellphone nor did she have food or water, said sheriff's spokesman Jim Strovink. Searchers concentrated their efforts on U.S. Forest Service Road 1820, near Snowdon Road. Quote
archenemy Posted October 8, 2007 Posted October 8, 2007 I hope they find her quickly. It is damn chilly out there and she is not prepared for a bivy. Quote
builder206 Posted October 8, 2007 Posted October 8, 2007 these idiot hunters showed up and started blasting into the woods we were in. Return fire! You're an American, where were your guns? Flank and deliver suppressing fire. Quote

Choada_Boy Posted October 9, 2007 Posted October 9, 2007 Pretty easy to get lost when you're randomly walking around in the woods while staring at the ground. I'm amazed she lived, despite not having either a cell phone or a hot Tauntaun abdomen. Quote

Couloir Posted October 9, 2007 Author Posted October 9, 2007 After seeing the interview of said subject on the news, it's no wonder she got lost. Quote

dmuja Posted October 9, 2007 Posted October 9, 2007 Hey, (not to sound too much like kevbone but...) I read on a bottle cap that there is this particular mushroom underground in Oregon that is like a couple miles square in size. Can someone confirm this is so? Quote
AlpineK Posted October 9, 2007 Posted October 9, 2007 It's been a while, but I remember hearing that same story on the radio. It wasn't on a Paul Harvey show, so I don't know if it was true. Quote
