LAST EDITED ON Sep-01-12 AT 04:11PM (MST)[p]I'm sure everyone around utah saw the insane lightning storm that rolled through last night. Me and my dad are hunting 22 over here in NV for archery deer and got stuck in it last night coming back to camp. Bad got worse and a bolt struck inbetween our 4 wheelers lockin me up completely, eyes rolled back neck snapped straight up and took my breathe away for quite a while. When i gathered myself i got off and turned to see my dad laying in the road infront of his quad. He got ejected off his wheeler. Ran up to him, he was gasping for air and yelpin "what happened" i told him i think we got hit and he had to get off the ground and back on his wheeler and we had to get back to camp asap. Wobbled and outa breathe he made it back even with his hads shaking and "on fire" as he described. Got him into the trailer, got his wet clothes off and into the truck. Called 911 and had them meet us with an ambulance on the charcoal ovens main dirt road. Long story short, in the ER till 1 am but he's ok other than pain in his hands and swelling in his forearms. You guys be safe out there, all hunters. Lightning is cool to look at but get off the mountain if possible if you see it.
