He wasn't out to make a stand of any kind. He received an anonymous call telling him where he could find his tree stand, which had been moved from his undisputed property to the disputed strip. When he got there, the deputies and game wardens were waiting in ambush positions, and a deputy shot him in the back.
That's not conjecture or hyperbole, that's from their own reports.
Also, there had been multiple surveys attempted, all with different and conflicting results. The thick tree cover makes GPS unusable with any degree of accuracy, and obviously makes shooting a straight line with a transit also impossible. The railroad bed and a local iron deposit create a magnetic anomaly, also making an accurate survey difficult.
Yo. KB. Thanks for any and all updates on this case. I recall like it was yesterday when this appeared here, and did a lot of research on what was available about it a the time. A true atrocity that needs to be kept held to the light of day.
