IIRC, while it still might have been 'dusk' by common parlance, I believe I read, by his own admission, he had taken the shot later than he was supposed to, after sunset.

While the woman probably should have realized hiking near dusk in an area that hunting occurs, is probably a bad idea, I can't lay any blame on her. The hunter should have been hunting during legal hours, identified his target, and anything behind.
