learned my lesson

So I'm out looking for my 2nd perfect cougar pelt and found a map online that suggests there might be another cougar area on the northwest side of blackwater. I'm still in chapter 3 and it says "wanted dead or alive" I figured I'll just sneak in there, well I had my temp horse with me as well (I usually run 2 horses when trapping). I go in just south of the lake with the beavers, turn a corner and BOOM about 12 bounty hunters just appear out of nowhere. I tried to make a run for but they shot me, FAST. 

I died, it respawned me in Strawberry and it had a $10 bounty on my head, in Strawberry. I'm not sure for what, I didn't kill anyone or even shoot at the people in blackwater area. Oh well I paid my bounty then had to go back to the border to get in whistle range of my temp horse. A single bounty hunter comes up I shoot him in the face, took his "white lawman hat" and ran back to safety with both my horses.

I still don't know what the bounty was for the first time, but I did get a cool white hat out of the deal. Wish you could buy it or it was a "found or stolen" hat. It looks pretty cool.

I guess in theory I paid $10 for that hat LOL

The only issue is, once I die or change hats/outfits I will loose the hat as I can't save it to my inventory.

you keep the last 4 hats in your horse satchel, maybe it's 5 hats.  something like that.

Anytime i've gone into the red area around Blackwater i always get those dozen lawmen and 3 dogs, they spawn right beside you and you have no chance to run away.  I'm guessing the $10 fine i also received is for trespassing?   only thing i can think of, there's nothing in the crimes list that makes sense for it.
