Summary
A 27-year-old Alaskan caribou hunter narrowly escaped death after a brutal bear attack on the North Slope—only to be saved by his cousin’s gunfire and his own quick thinking. Knocked down a steep hill, he suffered horrific injuries including shattered nose bones and deep lacerations, but miraculously kept his sight. His cousin fired his entire magazine at the charging bear, giving him time to pull out his weapon and scare off the predator. Now home with his family, awaiting reconstructive surgery, he credits his survival to something greater—and vows to focus on healing as he faces the long road to recovery.
