On Friday, July 17th, while Rusty and Timber camped in Dixie National Forest in southern Utah, Timber was attacked and killed by a mountain lion.

How is Rusty doing?  As well as can be expected.  Unfortunately he witnessed the attack, which makes the loss even more painful.

Many of you care very much about Rusty and Timber, as I do, and you want to offer your condolences.  I encourage you to do so.  I know from experience how much your kind words can help.  I’m sure Rusty will appreciate hearing from you; however, he won’t be writing individual replies.

Rest in peace.
