I'd guess that the sort of people incidentally mugging others can't afford a car and so would generally be within walking distance of their home/haunts. Probably also not the sort to put in extra effort walking trails or chancing a long walk in case they found someone.
I've travelled and hiked in the US a lot. In outdoor tourism spots away from cities, I think the main threat for opportunistic thefts would be 20-30yo foreign tourists (shoestring travelling Europeans, South Americans, etc). Cities would be completely different.
