#!markdown Cam. there are several lessons here. Consideration goes both ways. Accounts should be presented in their entirety from all parties. Pictures (personal in your face ones), contrary to the belief of the younger crowd are usually taken with permission; at least that is the expectation of those over 40. The old expression that two wrongs don't make a right seems appropriate here. There is a difference between trail vandalism and people sorting out a conflict: let's keep on top of the former. The latter needs no public forum. I will reiterate what I said before: I have never had an altercation with anyone on the mountain over many years of riding. With a stump, a few rocks, a tree or two and more than once with my own bike, but never a dog or person. These types of articles can change that dynamic and should be reserved for safety reasons only. We should be happy that there are many types of users on the mountain. That increases the chance of getting help when it is needed, if it is needed for whatever reason.
