Jimbo, I have been following this very closely. I was on the next ridge over when this happened.

 I do believe it was an accident, contrary to what some idiots are saying and posting on message boards that it was murder.

She
was wearing dark clothing, had stopped to retrieve something from her
back pack. She was on her knees, digging thru her backpack. The shooter was about 120yds above her. The weather was
foggy that morning. I have hiked and hunted that area for many years. I
grew up just a few miles from where it happened. I believe that it was
opening day of bear season, they seen what they thought was a bear. The
didnt double check their target. Possibly had Buck (bear?) feaver, and
rushed the shot. Thats about what it boils down to. It will be
interesting to see if they decide to file charges and if they dont,
watching all the liberals cry about it.
