Mountain Lion Sightings South of Henderson

It’s not everyday you see a mountain lion during your morning workout but for some local residents of Henderson this morning’s workout will be forever remembered.

Nora Ohrt was riding her road bike this morning around 7:00 a.m. on the Lushton Road 1/4 mile west of Road E when a mountain lion jetted across the road right in front of her. Ohrt said “I thought it was deer at first but then I saw a long tail and thought that it couldn’t be a deer.”

The very ironic part was Ohrt was not the only one to see a mountain lion this morning on her workout. Jaime Oswald and Sarah Goertzen were out for a run this morning when they also spotted a mountain lion a couple miles southwest of Henderson.

Thankfully these women were not injured and were able to share so others know and have been warned in the area.
