What is the strangest thing that has ever happened to you while you were outside hiking/jogging/walking/running, etc.?
I've had a lot of strange things happen but I guess the worst was when I was out hiking/geocaching and I found a dead coyote. I was looking at it kind of creeped out, stepped out of the way and seconds later there was a giant rockslide near the cliff where I had been standing. Creepyyy!

I was chased by a doe while running on a nature trail. It loped along side me for about 100 metres making a grunting noise.0

Funny you should mention geocaching.... today while hiking in the open space and looking for a couple of caches we didn't attempt last week - we found some hikers 'stash' ..... well insulated, water bottle, a homemade bong, lighter and more stuff then we cared to look into ( we thought it was the cache at first!) needless to say we did a little CITO to dispose of it..... it was located up high (no pun intended) with a beautiful panaromic view...we never did find the cache tho0

a mountain lion in my neighborhood. It ran across my path and I think we scared each other. I thought I was seeing things until other people started yelling "cougar".0

Yesterday I saw a woman sitting in a wheel chair, using her legs to move it, she had her arms folded in her lap, if she can walk with the wheel chair why can't she walk without it? She went like 2 blocks!0

Having spent many years working in a nursing home, this happens a lot. Some people may not have the strength or stability to walk. But it doesn't mean their legs don't work. Wheelchairs aren't just for paralized people. Nice empathy tho.0 -
Walking alone in twilight and seeing a huge mass of branches and dirt moving, only to get closer and discover that it was a giant porcupine crossing the path. This was on my way up the hill. On my way down it was even darker and I couldn't see very well, and the possibility of coming across said porcupine again, surprising it and getting myself stuck with quills was nerve-wracking.0
