Nothing like a creepy predator to ruin a good hike. I’m not sure what his intentions were but you don’t go up to a loan woman on a empty trail and say something weird to her and then turn around and start following her.

Whether I am protecting myself from an animal or a human there are a few pieces of gear that I always take with me on my hikes that give me some sense of self reliance and the ability to fend off and get myself out of a possibly bad situation. 

1. I always let a couple of people know where I’m going to be hiking, what trail I’m gonna be on, what I’m wearing, and when I’m expected to return.

2. I carry a gel pepper spray on a carabiner and an elastic band to give me the ability to keep whatever is approaching me at a good distance.

3. I carry a multi tool that has a bottle opener and screwdriver on the end so that I can use those immediately as something to protect myself without having to open up a blade or anything. 

4. Hiking poles or a Walkingstick are always a good thing to have two again keep people at a distance and used as a weapon or for example like the snake that was in the video it would be able to help push it off of the path without harming me.

5. Follow your intuition. If something feels like it might be bad your intuition is telling you something don’t ignore it.

6. Stay on designated trails. If something were to happen to you peoples try to follow the trail that is with in the park but if you wander off the trail it’s going to make it much harder to find you if something should happen.
