Missing Crazy Mountain Hiker/hunter

RobG · Aug 15, 2018

A person who was volunteering with the Rocky Mountain Goat Alliance to count goats in the Crazy Mountains didn't return Sunday. He was in the Cave Lake area (aka Milly Creek up the Sweet Grass drainage). If anyone was up there and saw anything relevant contact the Park County Sheriff's office.

That's terrible. Praying they find him alive and healthy.

Seems like that mountain range gets a disproportionate amount of missing person press.

I hope they find the guy and he’s alright.

I wonder if he had a locator device (Spot, Inreach) with him? Obviously, he may have, and many things could have happened causing him to not be able to use it if he did have one, but I wouldn't go alone without something.
I hope he's alright and found soon!!

I think it is these types of trips that should make us all stop and think. Without trying to put words in the lost hunters mouth and certainly not trying to fault him, he probably thought this trip routine or innocuous. Each of us have probably done something similar in the past. It's things like this that made me purchase a 2way satellite communicator.

The Crazy's live up to their name. I hope he is found well.

He has been found deceased.

That's terrible.

Very unfortunate. Prayers for all family and friends. Sad.

Lawnboy · Aug 15, 2018

Dang that’s a bad deal. Really should implement a buddy system on something like that. Might not of stopped the fall but maybe saved him assuming he was still alive. Prayers for the family

Sad story. Be careful out there guys.

pabearhunter · Aug 16, 2018

As sad as it is for the family. He was doing what he want to do when it happened.

BigHornRam · Aug 16, 2018

Sorry to hear this. My condolences to his family and friends.

Rotten deal. Some people learn from mistakes and some people die from mistakes.the tough decision in the mountains is deciding the difference between risky and dumb. But sometimes $hit happens.

Nameless Range · Aug 16, 2018

Very sad. He probably was very similar-minded and hearted to many of us on this forum.

JMG · Aug 16, 2018

It truly is sad. What little I know ... it appears this gentleman was just helping out a cause he believed in enough to get involved.

Prays and thoughts for the family, friends, and those affected in the Rocky Mountain Goat Alliance.

Very sad deal indeed. Hopefully he did not suffer.
