[quote:Anonymous Coward 11485379:MV8xNzM3MDUxXzI5OTIwMzMyXzVEQTE4QTU4] [quote:Anonymous Coward 6721938:MV8xNzM3MDUxXzI5OTE2NzAyXzEzNEU1NDRC] I was solo kayaking on a mountain lake in the middle of BC. Camped on a beach in the middle of nowhere, nothing around. I get bored and lonely sitting by the fire one night so I send out a psychic broadcast at the mountains and the stars, saying "feel free to come visit me if your intentions are good and your heart is pure. We can learn about each other's lives, share some space, and I promise I will try to limit my fear reaction." So I wake up in the middle of the night, its very still and very dark and I'm suddenly so wide awake that it feels like something strange is going on. I hear a few knocks out in the distance. I try to fall back asleep but every few minutes there are a few more knocks, like something hitting a tree very hard, and it keeps getting closer fast. At one point I hear more knocks way up the valley in the distance like call and answer. Every set of knocks is like a little phrase somehow, each is different, 2-5 strikes. They get closer and closer until the sound is LOUD and it must be within 100 meters. I'm scared so I send out a psychic message as loud as I can without actually speaking. "Please leave, please stop, I know you are big because you are moving so fast and knocking so loudly. I can't see you, I'm too afraid to leave my tent, please just leave and don't make any more sounds. Please just leave, I'm so scared" And its quiet. Perfectly quiet, perfectly still. I felt very ashamed when I woke up for not controlling my fear response. [/quote] It is true they can read minds and speak to you via the mind. To bad your were so frightened. It could have been a wondrous experience. [/quote]
Original Message
I got a special wilderness permit to go into an area in the mountains in CA where they hadn't allowed foot traffic in, in twenty years. There were no trails. It was myself and two other Marines and we did it in exchange for seeing if there was a rare kind of trout in the streams up there. I guess the forest service didn't have anyone who wanted to do it. I'm not sure I was set up with this by a friend. Anyway we hiked for two days with no trails using just a map and compass and on the second day we walked around this huge cliff to find a full on cabin with a lawn and solar power and washer and dryer the whole nine yards all built into the rock face of the cliff. You couldn't see it from above so it had gone unoticed for years. We talked to the guy that lived there and he said we were the first people he had seen hike in, in 14 years. He was a retired helicopter pilot and he had flown all the equipment in by helo. He was squatting on federal land and knew it but didn't seem worried. He said he hikes out every two weeks for supplies by a different route then we came in and he showed it to us. We used that route to get back as he had a trail beaten down so the walking was easier. All in all it was pretty cool. The trout the forest service was looking for were in the creeks so it is still closed to foot travel and we never told the forest service about the old helicopter pilot so I would bet he is still out there.
