Any good stories? I hike in sipsey wilderness a few times and on the last two trips have had hogs come through and mess my camp up. The first time a group of about three came through and shredded my tarp. About two weeks ago i was back in there and had a hog come check me out in my hammock. I woke up to him putting his snout in my bug netting. I was so sleepy at first i thought it was my dog who does the same thing then i realized i didnt bring the dog. He took off as soon as i woke up and yelled at it.

The roof of our camp house was all but taken over by red wasps. We waged war on those suckers a few years ago. Went through probably 20 cans of wasp spray. One of the nests was so large that it rolled up on both sides like sheep horns.

Armadillo. Mrs Dust kept telling me to go check cause it might be a bear/bigfoot/GDCK hybrid. I just told her it was dangerous and better to stay in the tent

we've got mice, found a few snake skins but never seen one(knock on wood) and we always hear the yotes very close by. we've had a pack of them run through the "parking lot" area of the camp while we were sitting on the porch, less than 20 yards.

Myself and a couple of Southern Miss broads were camping in a campsite in Perdido Key one nigh under the stars. We had all had a little too much acid, when damn racoons started coming out of the woods, invading out campground. I was beyond too fricked up to "manhandle" the situation, so we all just got in my 4Runner and "cuddled" and laughed at the coons. My buddy didnt partake in the festivities, rather drank himself into a campfire slumber. The coons didnt pay him no mind, as they sat on his chair and ate food around him.

Haha...not this time. I was too sleepy to realize what was goin on. I gave the shout for good measure just to make sure they didnt come back. Had i realized probably would have been a different story. I should clarify as well it wasnt hogs, i think these were just feral pigs.

a buddy of mine has a camp that is old as hell a beat the frick up. they have plenty of mice and coons. you can hear them running through the walls and roof as you sleep. one time we were siting around and a fat arse coon started running across the ceiling and fell through. it went nuts and found its way into a hole in the cabinet/closet area. we all just kinda sat there and watched, then when went back to what we were doing.
