Oh, wow. Injuries in the wilderness are scary, especially one as serious as yours. I'm glad your girlfriend was able to find help. How long did you have to wait for her to return? Hopefully you were able to continue enjoying the park after this unfortunate accident... I will never trust deer after this story. Thanks for sharing. Lucky I have nothing but good memories from my time in the park. I saw my first moose and grizzly there, but kept my distance.

Long enough to start wondering, "do bears smell blood, like sharks do?"

We were more or less "tent bound" after that. Which, wasn't so bad really.

Like I said, I have been there many times. Probably more than 20. I have mostly amazing memories of the place.
