1
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:23,199
Speaker 1: Winter is supposed to loosen its grip this time of year.

2
00:00:24,679 --> 00:00:27,879
Across much of the country, the snow has begun to melt,

3
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:33,079
rivers have started moving again, and the woods are slowly

4
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:38,920
waking from that long seasonal silence. According to tradition, we

5
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:42,479
were promised six more weeks of winter, but in many

6
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:48,520
places the season seems ready to move on. Still, winter

7
00:00:48,759 --> 00:00:54,039
doesn't surrender quietly. In parts of the United States, storms

8
00:00:54,079 --> 00:00:58,159
continue to roll through the mountains and river valleys, blowing snow,

9
00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:05,319
temperature drops, and in some regions travelers are still hearing

10
00:01:05,439 --> 00:01:11,599
a phrase that carries a particular kind of warning whiteout conditions,

11
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:19,280
the kind of weather where the land disappears, where distance collapses,

12
00:01:20,519 --> 00:01:24,879
where the world shrinks to the narrow reach of your headlights.

13
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:31,079
It's during moments like that, when visibility fades and the

14
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:36,519
wilderness feels suddenly larger, that strange things have a way

15
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:41,200
of appearing. Tonight's story is the beginning of a three

16
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:45,920
part series called white Out Warning. It takes us back

17
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:49,719
to the winter of nineteen ninety nine in a small

18
00:01:49,799 --> 00:01:53,719
town called gray Haven, where the end of the century

19
00:01:53,879 --> 00:01:59,200
arrived under heavy skies and deepening snow. A game Warden

20
00:01:59,319 --> 00:02:04,400
was found dead beside the Ashkeen River. A storm closed

21
00:02:04,439 --> 00:02:10,240
the roads, and somewhere in the woods upriver, something large

22
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:14,639
was moving through the snow. The people of grey Haven

23
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:18,800
would later realize that the storm wasn't the only thing

24
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:24,280
moving through those woods, and when the snow finally stopped falling,

25
00:02:25,599 --> 00:02:28,719
it revealed tracks. No one in town was ready to

26
00:02:28,759 --> 00:02:35,319
explain this is white out Warning Chapter one, The Last

27
00:02:35,599 --> 00:02:41,840
Christmas of the old World. Grey Haven, Massachusetts had always

28
00:02:41,879 --> 00:02:45,800
existed slightly out of step with the rest of the world,

29
00:02:46,199 --> 00:02:49,439
but in the final weeks of nineteen ninety nine that

30
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:55,879
feeling sharpened into something harder to ignore. Christmas had passed quietly,

31
00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:00,960
almost reluctantly, as if the town did want to admit

32
00:03:01,159 --> 00:03:06,319
it was finished. Lights still hung from porches and storefronts,

33
00:03:06,879 --> 00:03:11,520
blinking through the gray, but the cheer behind them had thinned.

34
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:17,439
People spoke about the date more than the holiday. December

35
00:03:17,479 --> 00:03:22,919
twenty sixth, the last Christmas of the twentieth century already

36
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:27,680
behind them, the last days of the year stretching ahead

37
00:03:28,159 --> 00:03:35,039
like a narrow bridge. Snow fell over night light, but deliberate.

38
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:40,159
It softened the roads without hiding them, and pressed into

39
00:03:40,199 --> 00:03:45,800
the ground just enough to make footprints hold their shape.

40
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:50,840
The Ashkeen River ran dark and steady through the northern

41
00:03:50,919 --> 00:03:56,560
edge of town, its surface steaming faintly where the current

42
00:03:56,639 --> 00:04:02,199
resisted freezing. Sixty miles inland from the ocean, the river

43
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:07,319
still carried a hint of something mineral and old. The

44
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:11,120
mills that once relied on it had collapsed decades earlier,

45
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:16,560
brick walls bowing inward, roofs caving under their own weight.

46
00:04:17,639 --> 00:04:23,199
Trees had moved where men once stood, patient and thorough.

47
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:29,920
At six fourteen a m a County snowplow rounded the

48
00:04:29,959 --> 00:04:36,120
bend along river access road. The driver had already cleared

49
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,720
two miles without incident when something near the tree line

50
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:45,720
caught his eye. It wasn't the way it lay that

51
00:04:45,879 --> 00:04:49,399
drew him in, but the way the snow seemed to

52
00:04:49,439 --> 00:04:57,519
have settled around it. Careful, almost respectful. He slowed, then stopped,

53
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:02,959
the plow, blades scraping once before going silent. He stepped

54
00:05:02,959 --> 00:05:07,319
out into the cold. The woods stood close behind the

55
00:05:07,399 --> 00:05:12,879
river bank, pines, tall and rigid, bare, hardy woods rising

56
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:17,279
like pale bones against the sky. The man lay just

57
00:05:17,399 --> 00:05:22,839
beyond the plow's edge on his side, one arm folded

58
00:05:22,879 --> 00:05:26,480
beneath him at an angle that immediately told the driver

59
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:32,160
this wasn't a matter of sleep or collapse. Snow dusted

60
00:05:32,199 --> 00:05:36,920
the coat and hair, His hat was gone, his jacket

61
00:05:37,079 --> 00:05:40,480
hung open, as if he'd never had time to close it.

62
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:46,519
The driver recognized him before he reached the body. Game

63
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:52,079
Warden Thomas Hale. Hale was a fixture in gray Haven.

64
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:57,879
He'd worked the Ashkeen Corridor and the surrounding woods for

65
00:05:57,959 --> 00:06:03,240
nearly twenty years, long enough to know which trails people

66
00:06:03,319 --> 00:06:10,720
respected and which they ignored. When hunters crossed lines, Hale

67
00:06:11,199 --> 00:06:16,319
handled it. When hikers didn't return on time, Hale went looking.

68
00:06:17,639 --> 00:06:23,040
He wasn't a man who speculated or exaggerated. He trusted

69
00:06:23,079 --> 00:06:27,759
the land, and the land had always answered him in

70
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:34,680
ways he understood. Seeing him there felt wrong, in a

71
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:40,639
way that the driver couldn't articulate. First responders arrived quickly,

72
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:47,959
a deputy, a volunteer, E m t later, the County sheriff.

73
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:55,240
Radios murmured and fell quiet, breath fogged and drifted away.

74
00:06:56,639 --> 00:07:03,040
No one rushed forward. The scene resisted haste. The snow

75
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:12,360
around hail lay smooth and undisturbed, no scuffing, no drag darcs,

76
00:07:12,399 --> 00:07:20,879
no obvious approach or departure. The river moved beside him indifferent.

77
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:26,439
Up close, the injuries made less sense, not more. There

78
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:31,399
was no clear head wound, no broken limbs consistent with

79
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:36,480
a fall. Bruising spread across the torso in patterns that

80
00:07:36,519 --> 00:07:42,560
suggested pressure rather than impact. The shoulders bore deep marks

81
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:47,439
thumb with impressions that looked less like blows and more

82
00:07:47,639 --> 00:07:53,959
like grips. Someone knelt and examined the snow again, frowning.

83
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:59,959
It's like he was set down, the empty said, then

84
00:08:00,759 --> 00:08:06,879
he stopped talking. Hale's service radio remained clipped to his belt.

85
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,920
The deputy checked it out of habit and found it

86
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:17,360
powered off. He said nothing, but the detail lodged itself

87
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:22,360
quickly in the mind of everyone standing there. Hale didn't

88
00:08:22,399 --> 00:08:28,439
turn his radio off without reason. The county medical examiner

89
00:08:28,639 --> 00:08:32,720
arrived later in the morning and chose his words carefully.

90
00:08:34,279 --> 00:08:39,840
Exposure was the likely cause of death. Disorientation near the river,

91
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:45,720
weather related accident. It was tidy language, designed to settle

92
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:51,519
nerves and closed doors. Gray Haven accepted it outwardly because

93
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:56,360
storms were coming and unanswered questions had a way of

94
00:08:56,519 --> 00:09:02,240
multiplying when people were already uneasy. But questions didn't disappear.

95
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:09,200
They spread underground. Hale hadn't been careless, he hadn't been drinking.

96
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:15,120
He hadn't been known to wander without purpose. Two days earlier,

97
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:19,720
he'd closed a stretch of trail up river without explanation,

98
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:24,080
drawing a line through the access point on his map

99
00:09:24,519 --> 00:09:30,000
and dating it. That alone was unusual. Hale didn't restrict

100
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:35,360
access unless he believed it was necessary. By mid morning,

101
00:09:35,919 --> 00:09:41,720
word moved through town in fragments. Conversation stalled in the diner,

102
00:09:42,919 --> 00:09:47,399
Coffee went cold on counters. Some one said it was

103
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:52,759
bad timing, and someone else replied that everything felt badly

104
00:09:52,879 --> 00:09:59,080
timed lately. Why two K talk crept into the margins

105
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:07,159
of those conversations. Computers crashing systems, failing, lights going out

106
00:10:07,519 --> 00:10:12,799
when the clock rolled over. Some laughed it off, others didn't.

107
00:10:13,919 --> 00:10:20,960
Gray Haven didn't mock superstition. It tolerated it quietly. End

108
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:24,000
of a century. An older man muttered near the window,

109
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:31,240
those always take something with them. No one contradicted him.

110
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:40,720
Snow resumed just afternoon, thicker, now more committed, The forecast

111
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:47,639
shifted again. Wind advisories followed, white out conditions were mentioned

112
00:10:47,759 --> 00:10:55,399
for higher elevations along the Ashkeene corridor. The river rose slightly, ice,

113
00:10:55,480 --> 00:11:01,399
knocking against the banks like dull teeth. At three forty

114
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:04,799
p m. A woman arrived at the Gray Haven Inn.

115
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:10,759
Her name was Eleanor Price. She was in her mid forties,

116
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:16,440
clean and composed, wearing a head band that held back

117
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:21,320
hair threaded lightly with gray. She carried herself with the

118
00:11:21,399 --> 00:11:25,840
calm assurance of some one who believed she was exactly

119
00:11:25,879 --> 00:11:30,159
where she was meant to be. A small backpack hung

120
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:35,360
from one shoulder. In her hands were two cloth pouches

121
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:40,000
tied neatly at the top. She placed them on the

122
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:45,480
counter gently, as if they deserved care. Just over night,

123
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:51,600
The innkeeper asked, just to night, Eleanor said, I'm heading

124
00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:56,720
up river tomorrow to fish. The innkeeper asked, already knowing

125
00:11:56,759 --> 00:12:02,559
the answer. Eleanor smiled. Her fingers drifted to her chest,

126
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:08,240
resting lightly over her heart, a gesture she repeated without

127
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:13,759
noticing to connect. She said, there's a place up there.

128
00:12:15,039 --> 00:12:22,919
The innkeeper hesitated. Snow tapped against the windows, faint but persistent.

129
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:28,720
We had a warden passed this morning, she said. Elinor

130
00:12:28,879 --> 00:12:33,519
listened without interrupting, her hand still pressed against her chest.

131
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:42,200
That's unfortunate, she said. Finally, thresholds can be dangerous. No

132
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:47,679
one asked her to explain what she meant. She spoke

133
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:52,320
about the pouches when asked. One held sand from a

134
00:12:52,399 --> 00:12:57,200
place she once loved, a place she said had taught

135
00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:02,159
her something she didn't want to forget. The other contained

136
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:10,000
clippings from a giant sequoia, folded carefully, kept dry for grounding,

137
00:13:10,159 --> 00:13:18,440
She said, smiling. Gray Haven had seen people like her before, Spiritual, attentive,

138
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:24,240
operating on rules the town didn't use. No one discouraged them.

139
00:13:25,159 --> 00:13:31,399
The woods usually resolved misunderstandings on their own. You'll want

140
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:37,519
to start early, the innkeeper said, weather's turning. Elinor nodded,

141
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:44,440
I'll be listening outside. The snow thickened, and the Ashkeen

142
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:51,720
River kept moving, unconcerned with calenders, warnings, or the end

143
00:13:51,759 --> 00:13:57,399
of anything at all. The wind arrived some time after midnight,

144
00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:03,840
not suddenly, but within. It threaded itself through grey Haven

145
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:10,879
street by street, worrying loose shutters, lifting pottery, snow off roofs,

146
00:14:10,919 --> 00:14:16,720
and sending its skittering across frozen pavement. The town slept lightly,

147
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,600
as if it sensed that rest should not be taken

148
00:14:20,639 --> 00:14:25,399
for granted. A few televisions glowed in dark living rooms,

149
00:14:26,159 --> 00:14:30,720
tuned to late night shows, segments speculating about Ye t

150
00:14:30,799 --> 00:14:35,159
u Q failures and far away cities. Someone laughed at

151
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:39,960
a joke about computers forgetting what year it was. Someone

152
00:14:40,039 --> 00:14:46,399
else turned the volume down. The storm warnings grew more precise.

153
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:54,519
Higher elevations, river corridors, limited visibility, the kind of language

154
00:14:54,679 --> 00:15:01,279
locals took seriously without dramatization. Gray Haven had lived through

155
00:15:01,399 --> 00:15:06,320
enough winters to know the difference between nuisance snow and

156
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:12,200
weather that closed its hand around the land. Elinor Price

157
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:17,960
woke before dawn without alarm. She lay still for a moment,

158
00:15:19,039 --> 00:15:23,480
listening to the building's sigh and the wind moved outside.

159
00:15:24,919 --> 00:15:30,000
The inn was quiet, the other guests still asleep or

160
00:15:30,039 --> 00:15:35,240
pretending to be. She dressed carefully, choosing layers with the

161
00:15:35,279 --> 00:15:40,799
same deliberation she had shown the night before. Clean socks,

162
00:15:41,559 --> 00:15:47,440
wool sweater, insulated jacket. She tucked the small cloth pouches

163
00:15:47,679 --> 00:15:53,039
into her back pack, last adjusting their placement until they

164
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:59,519
sat just right. Before leaving the room, she paused, her

165
00:15:59,519 --> 00:16:04,360
fingers resting against her chest, eyes closed briefly, as if

166
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:08,759
checking in with something that didn't speak back in words.

167
00:16:09,799 --> 00:16:15,559
Outside the porch light cast a dull yellow cone through

168
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:21,919
blowing snow. Eleanor stepped into it and breathed in the

169
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:27,600
air felt charged tight against her lungs. She smiled faintly,

170
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:32,799
not because it was pleasant, but because it was unmistakably present.

171
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:38,759
The trailhead lay a short walk from the inn, already

172
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:44,120
losing definition under fresh accumulation. The path markers were still visible,

173
00:16:44,519 --> 00:16:50,399
though muted, their colors dulled by frost. Eleanor adjusted her

174
00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:56,159
pack straps and stepped forward without hesitation. The woods accepted

175
00:16:56,159 --> 00:17:01,120
her quietly. As she moved up river. The ash keen

176
00:17:01,279 --> 00:17:07,559
narrowed and bent, like banks, steepening, the sound of water

177
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:13,799
flattening into something steady and close. Old growth pressed in

178
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:21,240
pines rose straight and tall, their upper branches vanishing into

179
00:17:21,279 --> 00:17:30,400
moving white. Hardwoods stood bare and pale, their limbs etched

180
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:35,640
against the low sky. The deeper she went, the less

181
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:41,440
the forest resembled anything human. The snow fell harder, now

182
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:47,720
not straight down, but driven sideways in sheets that erased

183
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:54,680
depth and distance. Eleanor slowed, not from fear but from attention.

184
00:17:56,279 --> 00:18:04,000
She listened, her hand drifting again to her chest, fingers

185
00:18:04,519 --> 00:18:10,759
resting there as if that was where understanding lived. The

186
00:18:10,839 --> 00:18:17,799
trackways appeared, gradually, revealing themselves, not only because the snow

187
00:18:17,839 --> 00:18:22,480
could not quite hide them. They ran parallel to the trail,

188
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:28,680
offset by several yards, wide and deep enough to give

189
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:36,240
her paws. The stride was wrong, too long, too Even

190
00:18:37,559 --> 00:18:41,359
they did not cross her path or approach it, they

191
00:18:41,759 --> 00:18:48,680
matched her pace. She noticed them and kept walking. The

192
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:52,880
smell came next, carried on a shift in the wind,

193
00:18:53,759 --> 00:19:01,759
heavy organic, not decay exactly, but something warm that didn't

194
00:19:01,799 --> 00:19:09,319
belong to the cold. Eleanor wrinkled her nose slightly, then relaxed.

195
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:17,640
She adjusted her headband and continued forward. Visibility collapsed faster

196
00:19:18,079 --> 00:19:22,200
than she expected. The world narrowed to the sound of

197
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:27,599
her breath and the muffled resistance of snow beneath her boots.

198
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:36,839
Landmarks vanished, direction became instinctive rather than visual. She stopped once,

199
00:19:37,599 --> 00:19:45,519
turning slowly listening. Something was there, not rushing, not hiding,

200
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:53,920
simply present. Eleanor's heart rate increased, but panic did not follow.

201
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:58,880
She pressed her hand to her chest again, grounding herself,

202
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:07,680
breathed slowly, the forest felt attentive, not hostile, curious. The

203
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:12,880
wind surged stronger now, and the snow thickened until the

204
00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:19,279
air itself seemed solid. Eleanor turned slightly, uncertain whether she

205
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:22,880
was still on the trail or only believed she was.

206
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:28,799
She took a step, then another. The sound came then,

207
00:20:29,799 --> 00:20:34,759
not a vocalization, not a footstep, but the absence of

208
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:40,200
sound where something large should have made it. The space

209
00:20:40,319 --> 00:20:45,920
beside her felt occupied, close enough that distance stopped meaning

210
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:51,559
anything at all. Back in Grayhaven, the storm shut the

211
00:20:51,599 --> 00:20:56,599
town down, piece by piece. Roads were closed as plows

212
00:20:56,680 --> 00:21:03,799
pulled back. Power flickered twice and held whether radios advised

213
00:21:03,839 --> 00:21:09,240
against travel of any kind. Search crews, already discussing the

214
00:21:09,279 --> 00:21:14,880
warden's death in lowered voices, postponed plans to check the

215
00:21:15,039 --> 00:21:21,119
up river trails. It'll have to wait, someone said, nothing

216
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:25,279
good comes out of going up there. In this no

217
00:21:25,319 --> 00:21:32,119
one disagreed. The storm lasted longer than predicted, snow piled

218
00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:37,880
wind scoured the landscape clean, and then buried it again.

219
00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:43,880
When it finally broke, it did so abruptly, leaving behind

220
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:50,000
a silence that felt earned. Search teams moving upriver the

221
00:21:50,039 --> 00:21:55,799
following morning. Cautious and methodical, they followed the river bend

222
00:21:56,039 --> 00:22:00,519
where Hale had been found days earlier, then pressed on,

223
00:22:02,039 --> 00:22:07,240
scanning the woods for any sign that didn't belong. They

224
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:12,559
found Eleanor Price's lock. At first, it lay near the

225
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:18,640
edge of the trail, clasp intact, chain, unbroken, resting on

226
00:22:18,759 --> 00:22:23,319
top of the snow, rather than buried beneath it. Someone

227
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:27,240
picked it up carefully, as though it might still be warm.

228
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:32,119
There was no blood on it, no sign of struggle. Nearby,

229
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:38,880
farther on the ground told a different story. Half buried

230
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:43,400
in snow that had not fallen naturally, they found her

231
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:52,240
ear torn with surrounding flesh. The blood marked the ground heavily, unmistakably,

232
00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:58,000
head wounds, blood profusely. This had not been a clean break.

233
00:22:58,519 --> 00:23:02,960
This had not been an act accident. No scavenger marks,

234
00:23:03,839 --> 00:23:09,200
no animal feeding patterns. The rest of her was gone.

235
00:23:09,519 --> 00:23:14,680
The trackways circle the site, wide and deep, pressing into

236
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:20,359
the ground with a weight that exceeded anything human. They

237
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:26,880
did not lead away, They did not lead toward. They revolved.

238
00:23:28,319 --> 00:23:32,359
The cloth pouches Eleanor carried were nowhere to be found.

239
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:38,720
Only later, as people compared notes, they hadn't meant to share.

240
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:46,599
Did the similarities emerge Hale's injuries, the compression, the absence

241
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:51,839
of struggle, the sense that both scenes had been controlled

242
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:59,640
rather than chaotic. No one said Sasquatch out loud. The

243
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:05,359
word stayed locked behind teeth and old memories. But an

244
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:09,640
older hunter standing at the edge of the trees finally spoke,

245
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:16,640
his voice, low and steady. That wasn't the weather, he said,

246
00:24:17,279 --> 00:24:23,000
and it wasn't an animal. The Ashkeen River kept moving,

247
00:24:23,799 --> 00:24:30,119
dark and patient, as it always had. Thank you for

248
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:33,799
listening to Bigfoot's Wilderness. This was part one of our

249
00:24:33,839 --> 00:24:38,400
three part series White Out. Warning. The storm over gray

250
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:42,880
Haven is only beginning to reveal what it left behind

251
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:47,839
in the woods alongside the Ashkeen River, and what search

252
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:52,240
crews will discover upriver will raise questions the town isn't

253
00:24:52,279 --> 00:24:56,759
prepared to answer. Be sure to join us for part two,

254
00:24:56,799 --> 00:25:00,240
where the investigation moves deeper into the forest and the

255
00:25:00,319 --> 00:25:06,400
evidence in the snow becomes much harder to explain. Until then,

256
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:11,319
stay curious out there, and thanks again for listening to

257
00:25:11,359 --> 00:26:25,920
Bigfoot's Wilderness.
