Something similar happened while walking my two dogs a couple of years back. A coyote came out of a field of tall grass and led my dogs to another woodland a couple hundred feet away. Not really a chasing situation, just accompanying.

Just got this email from Black Diamond about all of their prices going up next week due to tariffs. If there's ANY outdoor equipment you've had your eye on, made by anyone - be it for climbing, running, hiking, surfing, paddling, biking, whatever - you should probably get it now.

Since day one, Black Diamond has been built on a foundation of honesty, transparency, and dedication to our community. Today, we want to share an important update regarding upcoming tariff-related price increases—and reaffirm our commitment to deliver uncompromising quality. Beginning May 5th, prices on most of our products will increase 10–25% due to the recent wave of global tariffs introduced by the Trump Administration. These tariffs include a base tariff of 10% on all imports, 25% on steel and aluminum products, and steep surcharges on products from China. These tariffs have dramatically increased the cost of producing our gear - by more than double in some cases. Every outdoor brand operating on a global supply chain is experiencing similar issues. We’ve absorbed as much of this impact as we can, but to continue delivering the high-performance equipment you count on, a price adjustment has become necessary. This isn’t a decision we’ve taken lightly. We build technical, protective, and often life-saving equipment. Our global supply chain is built on long-standing, trusted partnerships, operating 41 factories in 17 countries in a tightly managed network built around safety, reliability, and performance - things we aren’t willing to compromise to chase cheaper suppliers.
