The "abandoned mine", large enough to have elaborate wood framing, is high in the mountains, at least "four hours hike" from the trail-head at high altitude. Mines, even abandoned ones, are always located near some kind of negotiable road. Otherwise the ore could not be extracted.

All the characters, including Casey and other supposedly experienced mountaineers, repeatedly make greenhorn hiker mistakes: exploring an unknown cave for "fun" in mountain lion country; splitting up to look for a dangerous animal; leaving camp perimeter after dark; etc.

The size of the sabretooth relative to humans keeps changing.

Bob Thatcher: I'm gonna kill your fuckin' cat.

Kara Harmon: It could be right behind me and I wouldn't even know it.

Bob Thatcher: They split here. The campers go that way, the cat goes that way.
