my story from the other thread:
I went solo crossing the fagaras mountain ridge a couple of years ago, which would take me about 10 days.
> get drunk in bucharest 3 days in a row because the wodca is so cheap and the girls so easy
> hungover as fuck get a train and a bus to some shithole where people's cars get pulled by workhorses.
> walk a day along a river to the foot of the mountains
> pass gypsy camp right at the foot of the mountains
> its almost dark, hike an hour up the mountain and set camp
> scared shittless trapped in my bivybag the whole night because of gypsies, with every little noise i hear i think it's them sneaking up to me ready to bash my head or rob me
> wake up happy and unrobbed, start hiking
> it's summer and there aren't a lot of watersources, so i resuply for 4 liters when i have the chance, also i carry food for 10 days
> this is pain, but it sure is beautiful out there, and i saw no other hikers
> i hit the treeline in the evening
> set up bivy about 50 meters above the treeline so i can wake up with a nice view
> walk down to the trees to get some firewood to cook on
> see this giant dog coming out of the forest, crazy mad barking at me
> go back to my bivy, without wood, think the dog will pass if i ignore it and stare at the ground.
> more dogs show up, they all seem very unpleased with my presence there
> about 10 dogs barking at about 20 meters from me now, half an hour till dark, i take my knive, but still try to ignore them
> they close in on me and start surrounding me
> it's almost dark, the dogs are in a circle about 2 meters from me, barking drooling, ready to devour me, i feel their spit flying on me and i think this is the end
> I have to act, i grab some rocks, jump up throw the rocks, shout as loud as i can, with the knife in my other hand i wanted to stab one of them, thinking it might scare the others
> they run away before i have the chance
> grab all my shit, walk for 3 hours in the dark
