Death by a thousand cuts would seem merciful to him. That would be to easy for him. He's a bitch. That's why he took the plea deals . Definitely afraid of dying. They should wall paper his cell with pictures of all his victims and what he did. And play audio of people screaming, begging for help,and crying and crap like that. Until it literally drives him crazy then kill the SOB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Roofer Billy Report post Posted July 5 6 minutes ago, maximus said: hey Billy are you talking about all the way up by the trailhead for reavis ranch? Not really sure honestly. I know that we always went up to the parking lot at the very top . Rodger Trough ,and Woodberry trailhead is what I always new of. We would ride North East from the parking area. More east then north. Very good Coues hunting back in there. Especially in early bow season . That area has several different places that have water seeping out of the creek beds . And the deer use the heck out of them. That's also where you will find some wild camp sights, that kinda scream no good. We been told to turn around before . By two guys on Quads with big rifles. Told us that there was nothing for us up ahead and to turn around. We did... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maximus I just spoke with my Dad and He told Me yes it towards Reavis ranch. In the valleys surrounding the ranch area. Always in the bottoms near water and on the east side of the canyon. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AZBIG10 Report post Posted July 5 23 hours ago, wildwoody said: Lots of strange and dangerous people pass threw there. Circa 2016 Slept in the back of my truck on a scouting trip In the same area was on a look out with 360 view. I woke up in the middle of the night to the sound of a truck coming up the road. It went up and down the same stretch as I watched. Eventually They turned the car/truck lights off while the car was still running. I Pulled out my binos and observed a small group of people come out of the bush and got into the car/truck/van lights go back on and they drive off. I had been at my camp spot well before sundown andNot a single car had come down that road. Figured az trail folks getting picked up or maybe not. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edge Report post Posted July 5 Many years ago before Marijuana was legalized, several of us had packed into Lime Creek Cabin for a couple days. A pretty remote location with a year round spring fed Creek. About 2a the first night there, we were awakened by the sounds of people hiking and talking loudly to one another. They were on a trail nearby heading north by moonlight. Got creepy when we realized they were only speaking Spanish. One of the drunks in our party yelled out to them to STFU, which they did Then he yelled out we had guns and shot a couple pistol rounds in the air. Some thought maybe it was a shift change or goods transfer at an illegal grow along the Verde. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catclaw Report post Posted July 5 My neighbor in Mesa drove out to Picketpost mountain in Nov 23 ( I think) they went to the big clearing of the old highway to shoot but there were residual cars there from a rave party. They went down the road further to shoot. After a couple hours they decided to drive back to the mine road and look for a better place to shoot? Both in separate trucks. My buddy saw an I phone lying in the road so he picked it up. He drove on and there was a guy standing in the road. He stopped to not hit him. The guy came to his window and didn't say a thing. My buddy held up the phone and asked if it was his. The guy grabbed it and then tried to force his way into the truck. My buddy said he didn't have time to even grab his gun on his hip. Just hit the gas and drug the guy until he let go. He and his buddy decided to leave. They got out of there both shaken up [75 year olds) the next day he saw on the news that the guy who tried to car Jack him killed the next guy who came down the road! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CatfishKev Report post Posted July 6 The stories in this thread explain why everyone should carry. I just met with an elderly lady in Tucson and I told her she should absolutely own a firearm based on our conversation. I told her one of my favorite phrases. When seconds matter the police are only minutes away. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
