Speaker 2: We're flying through there, over the tree. I don't know
Speaker 2: how it did it. Okay, Damn, I'm really confused. All
Speaker 2: I saw was my dog coming over the fence and
Speaker 2: they would dead once you hit the grill. I didn't
Speaker 2: see any cars. All I saw was my dog coming
Speaker 2: over the fence. Sat, what are you reporting? We got
Speaker 2: some wonder or something crawling around out here? Did you
Speaker 2: see what it was? It was enough out here? Look
Speaker 2: him new the window now and I don't see anything.
Speaker 2: I don't want to go outside this point. Kara, New York. Hello,
Speaker 2: hit somebody out here? What que on the Altair's thought
Speaker 2: of a bit just about sixty forty nine. I don't
Speaker 2: know easy, I'm out there, yeah, from walking right head.
Speaker 3: Oh hey, greetings, thanks for joining me. His friend Alaska.
Speaker 3: What I'm sharing with you today comes from Sam. This
Speaker 3: occurred back in the early mid seventies. He was a
Speaker 3: welding assistant on the trans Alaska Pipeline. From what he said,
Speaker 3: the assistant wasn't necessarily the job title. It was basically
Speaker 3: a ross about. He would just be a gopher for
Speaker 3: all the welders for whatever their needs were. He came
Speaker 3: to having his time off and one of the guys
Speaker 3: he had met on the job lived outside of fort Yukon.
Speaker 3: He went with this guy. This person was visiting his
Speaker 3: home village for a minute. Sam and this guy decided
Speaker 3: to go towards what's called the Neetti Landing. They were
Speaker 3: going to go on foot. There's some trails and whatnot.
Speaker 3: So they take off and they're taking their time and
Speaker 3: they planned on camping out because he had a week off,
Speaker 3: so his friend was well armed. He wasn't. Sam basically
Speaker 3: came up to the state for the work. As they're
Speaker 3: going along the whole time, Sam said, once they got
Speaker 3: outside of fort Yukon and they're heading due west along
Speaker 3: the Yukon River, they said they spend a lot of
Speaker 3: the time on the banks of the Yukon just skirting around,
Speaker 3: easier traveling, you know, instead of just breaking trail through
Speaker 3: the trees because it was pretty dense due there. He
Speaker 3: said they had planned it out to go so far,
Speaker 3: hang out, do whatever things they want to do. Drink
Speaker 3: some beer or whatever. Just basically a break. It wasn't
Speaker 3: out to go hunting or anything like that. It was
Speaker 3: just a break from the pipeline work. So the first
Speaker 3: night they're camped out, just as they were inning their
Speaker 3: festivities or whatnot, calling it a night. It wasn't overly dark.
Speaker 3: The sky was light, but everything around them was dark,
Speaker 3: pretty standard for Alaska. And this was towards the end
Speaker 3: of July. They decided because of how it was the
Speaker 3: weather and the winds were blowing up and down the river,
Speaker 3: they decided to tuck back into the trees a little
Speaker 3: ways as they were getting ready to call it at night.
Speaker 3: So they get up in there. It's a little bit
Speaker 3: chilly because of the wind blowing and stuff. So they
Speaker 3: decide to light this fire. He said, it wasn't a
Speaker 3: big fire, just something just warm them up a little bit.
Speaker 3: So they get the spire going and it gets on
Speaker 3: in the darkness. When I was talking to him, he
Speaker 3: had really long pauses. He was really still. It still
Speaker 3: bothers him. And this happened back in the seventies. So
Speaker 3: as he was sitting there staring at the fire, which
Speaker 3: you don't want to do that, Yeah, I can understand
Speaker 3: getting hypnotized by the flames, but if you're in a
Speaker 3: place with real predators, don't stare at the firelight. You
Speaker 3: just don't want that because it takes away your night vision.
Speaker 3: You turn away from that fire. Everything's just pitch. He
Speaker 3: was staring at the fire, so every once in a
Speaker 3: while he was hearing this noise, and his buddy had
Speaker 3: already passed out, fallen asleep. His friend had a rifle
Speaker 3: laying next to him. Sam was sitting there, and he
Speaker 3: said he kept hearing this noise. He would stand up
Speaker 3: and go to the other side of this little fire
Speaker 3: pit and look in that direction. But because his night
Speaker 3: blindness from the fire, he couldn't make out anything. He
Speaker 3: thought the glow he saw was just burned retina from
Speaker 3: staring at the fire. What he was in essence seeing
Speaker 3: was eyeshine off in the distance. He said it was
Speaker 3: less than thirty yards. He said he only knows and
Speaker 3: caught onto that because every time he heard the noise,
Speaker 3: he would do the same thing, go over the other
Speaker 3: side of the fire. It was at the same place.
Speaker 3: It wouldn't move, it was just the same eye shine.
Speaker 3: So after about third fourth time he was hearing these noises.
Speaker 3: He wakes up his friend, and his friend's a little groggy.
Speaker 3: He'd tied it on a little bit, sipping on some
Speaker 3: whiskey with the beer. So Sam tells him, hey, I
Speaker 3: hear noises over here. His friend was just half out
Speaker 3: of us, says, take the gun and go run the
Speaker 3: bear off. Sam goes, yeah, I've never done that. What's
Speaker 3: the procedure in that, I'm not from Alaska. His friend
Speaker 3: told him, look, just run over there, yelling haybar, be
Speaker 3: ready to shoot in case it charges, it should run off.
Speaker 3: Bad advice, but Sam took the advice grab the rifle.
Speaker 3: Sam said he had no clue what the rifle was.
Speaker 3: It was just his buddy's hunting rifle that's lost to
Speaker 3: the annals of time. Exactly what caliber was. Sam grabs
Speaker 3: his rifle and I'm not trying to laugh at Sam.
Speaker 3: It's the way he explained it was. He was a
Speaker 3: fumbling idiot. His word's not mine. Sam claimed that he
Speaker 3: was a fumbling idiot trying to make this scream run
Speaker 3: towards this darkness with a gun he doesn't even know
Speaker 3: how to shoot. He wouldn't even know how to take
Speaker 3: it off safety so mistakes, big mistakes being made. He
Speaker 3: self admitted that. So he goes fumbling and stumbling that direction, ah,
Speaker 3: screaming and whatnot. Doesn't hear a peep. The eye shine
Speaker 3: goes away, but doesn't hear a sound of anything leaving.
Speaker 3: Then he gets creeped out. He backs it back over
Speaker 3: to the fire. He sits down. He starts sipping his
Speaker 3: beer again, and he's nervous as health. He finally gets
Speaker 3: his buddy to take him serious and get up. So
Speaker 3: his buddy's shaking it off, trying to fully wake up
Speaker 3: or whatever as they're discussing, no sound, and he ran
Speaker 3: over that way his friend coming out of the fog.
Speaker 3: He was getting earlier, so you shouldn't have ran over
Speaker 3: that way. That's the instructions he gave me. Dude guy,
Speaker 3: apologize whatever, no harm, no foul. They sit up for
Speaker 3: a little while. Sam is super nervous. He can't fall asleep.
Speaker 3: There was something off about the whole thing by seeing
Speaker 3: the eye shine, just how everything was going. He felt
Speaker 3: uncomfortable in his skin. He convinces his buddy to take
Speaker 3: him more serious. Let's get out the flashlight, the only
Speaker 3: one flashlight they had that they saved the batteries on
Speaker 3: for emergencies, and let's use some of that emergency light
Speaker 3: and go see what the hell's going on, because periodically
Speaker 3: there would still be be a noise here and there,
Speaker 3: nothing really outlandish or outrageous. Just little tree snaps, little
Speaker 3: twig breaks, that type of thing. Nothing crazy. So his friend,
Speaker 3: being native, gets up and remember his friend still coming
Speaker 3: out of the fog or drinking, maybe still pretty buzzed.
Speaker 3: His friend starts assessing what's going on, tells him maybe
Speaker 3: we should just we'll hit the river and move camp.
Speaker 3: They got this fire going, so Sam was concerned about
Speaker 3: the fire, and he goes, okay, let's douse the fire.
Speaker 3: His friend goes, okay, I'm gonna sit here, I'll keep watch.
Speaker 3: Go ahead and douse the fire. So Sam does this thing.
Speaker 3: He throws dirt on it, breads the logs apart, piles
Speaker 3: a bunch of dirt on it, making sure that it
Speaker 3: was out. They retreat from where they were at back
Speaker 3: towards the river, out of the tree line, and when
Speaker 3: they get to the river, he said, they're in this
Speaker 3: tall grass. They're going along the tree lines off to
Speaker 3: their right hand side. So as they're walking along periodically
Speaker 3: they would hear scuffling through the brush, just like something
Speaker 3: moving fastened than stopping. His native buddy was like, that's
Speaker 3: not bare behavior. Something's up. I wonder if one of
Speaker 3: my relatives is playing a trick. So he starts yelling
Speaker 3: out names of his relatives. Hey, don't play around whatever,
Speaker 3: yelling into the trees. Not a sound. They get to
Speaker 3: this little feeder creek that feeds into the Yukon. It's
Speaker 3: about twelve foot wide and about three foot deep at
Speaker 3: the center of it, so it was a little deeper
Speaker 3: than what Sam wanted to tredg through. So he backs up,
Speaker 3: runs and jumps over right. His friend, still more inebriated
Speaker 3: than Sam, backs up, runs does the same. He makes
Speaker 3: it lands into the shallower part of the water. The
Speaker 3: rifle gets in the water. He pulls it out and
Speaker 3: it's all full of gunk and stuff. So they're basically stopped.
Speaker 3: His friends using blades of grass and anything he could
Speaker 3: think of to clean the barrel out because they still
Speaker 3: got something unknown over in the shrubs. So this goes on.
Speaker 3: They're movements to stuff everything. I'm explaining to you it
Speaker 3: was over the course of a couple hours, so for
Speaker 3: literally a couple hours. This thing's moving, pacing, paralleling beside
Speaker 3: him in the trees. He's got to stop cleaning the rifle.
Speaker 3: That took some time. Being Alaska's starting to get light again,
Speaker 3: but not full on daylight. Everything's still pitch black, silhouetted
Speaker 3: in the trees. You could see where you're walking, but
Speaker 3: you're not getting full on light. So as they're going along,
Speaker 3: his friend says, I keep hearing it. Do you hear it?
Speaker 3: It's moving in the grass. They were only maybe forty
Speaker 3: feet from where the grass ended, and then it went
Speaker 3: up the bank into the tree line. He goes, I
Speaker 3: don't hear anything in the grass. They keep talking and
Speaker 3: moving along periodically. His friend was behind him with the
Speaker 3: gun and would stop, hey, stop when they were talking.
Speaker 3: His friend told him, anytime I ask you to stop,
Speaker 3: you squat down low in case I have to swing
Speaker 3: the barrel over the course of blocking. His friends sobering up,
Speaker 3: it's getting uncloudy as far as safety measures. There's something
Speaker 3: moving unknown. I don't want you being collateral damage if
Speaker 3: I'm swinging the barrel. So they get their game planned
Speaker 3: down in case the bear comes out, because they really
Speaker 3: at this point they had no clue. They continued going.
Speaker 3: They're exhausted, they came down from the drinking. Their headaches
Speaker 3: are starting to kick in. So they decide, all right,
Speaker 3: let's stop, let's brew up some coffee, Let's have a
Speaker 3: little breakfast. Let the day come on in. Be done
Speaker 3: with this darkness craziness. So they had to go and
Speaker 3: find some brush, big enough fire to heat up and
Speaker 3: percolate the coffee. So they're together. His friend said, you're
Speaker 3: not leaving my side. We stay together. You don't want
Speaker 3: to go missing. They gather up what they needed to.
Speaker 3: They get this fire going and they're brewing the coffee.
Speaker 3: And as they're doing so, it's getting lighter on the horizon.
Speaker 3: So his friends getting a little more comfortable, a little
Speaker 3: more relaxed. Sam's buddy falls asleep. Sam goes, it's light enough.
Speaker 3: The rifles there, He explained how to take the safety off.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna let him rest a little bit. Sam doing
Speaker 3: the same thing, chilling, relaxing. It percolated the coffee. Sam
Speaker 3: said he didn't even get it off of the rock.
Speaker 3: He was just so exhausted. He just laid back and
Speaker 3: fell asleep as well. He wakes up approximately fifteen feet
Speaker 3: away from him in the grass. He keeps seeing something
Speaker 3: dark moving as he's waking up. He's trying to figure
Speaker 3: out what am I looking at. At first he thought
Speaker 3: it was the face and muslim of a bear reaches
Speaker 3: over and pats his buddy, who was sleeping. He wakes
Speaker 3: up groggly and mumbles something, and as his buddy's waking
Speaker 3: up mumbling this scene starts moving away. His buddy caught
Speaker 3: wind of the movement because they felt it in the ground.
Speaker 3: That's unnerving. Shit. When something's close enough and it's heavy enough,
Speaker 3: you could feel it in the ground. So immediately his
Speaker 3: friend's up bear grab jumps up, has the rifle and
Speaker 3: is looking Sam stayed down. Sam couldn't see over the grass.
Speaker 3: His friend was standing up pre arranged stay down when
Speaker 3: I got the gun, that type of thing for safety.
Speaker 3: So Sam sitting there and his friends start pacing back
Speaker 3: and forth looking doing this number, and just keeps looking
Speaker 3: down at Sam. Dude, this is something mat right. So
Speaker 3: Sam stands up and comes back behind him. He's not
Speaker 3: in any line of fire, and he goes what's going on.
Speaker 3: He said, that's not a bearer, that's a man. That's
Speaker 3: a man over there, he points. Sam doesn't see this
Speaker 3: figure at first. It's approximately seventy yards away at this point,
Speaker 3: at the tree line. Looking back at them, Sam said,
Speaker 3: once he focused saw this thing, he said, it had
Speaker 3: to have been every bit of at least nine foot tall.
Speaker 3: It looked real, scrawny, pitch black looking hair. He couldn't
Speaker 3: make out the face because of silhouet. Sam starts pointing
Speaker 3: and his friend smacks his hand. Don't point at it,
Speaker 3: don't acknowledge it. Sam asked, what the hell are we
Speaker 3: dealing with? He tells them it's the hairy Man. We
Speaker 3: need to go. Let's start heading back towards fort yukons.
Speaker 3: Sam goes, what the hell's this, Harry Man, what are
Speaker 3: you talking about? Bigfoot wasn't a big thing as pop
Speaker 3: culture goes, or so his buddy lays it out. The
Speaker 3: hairy Man will steal your women and children each et cetera.
Speaker 3: Sam's what the hell is this? What are you talking about?
Speaker 3: Because it made no sense to Sam. It wasn't even
Speaker 3: in his wheelhouse with what his buddy was talking about.
Speaker 3: His friend was deadly serious, said we gotta go. At
Speaker 3: that point, the fire wasn't very big that they heated
Speaker 3: up the coffee. They both grabbed a little bit of
Speaker 3: a sip. They were still concerned because it was still
Speaker 3: standing there. Sam said that his friend was keeping watch
Speaker 3: with the rifle as he was putting out the fire
Speaker 3: and collecting things up so they could start beating feet back.
Speaker 3: As he was doing that, all of a sudden, his
Speaker 3: friend lets off a shot. It startled the shit out
Speaker 3: of Sam. He fell over backwards, spilled coffee down his leg.
Speaker 3: Hot coffee really woke him up, was like, what the hell?
Speaker 3: What are you shooting at? Why'd you shoot? His buddy
Speaker 3: told him that this thing was peeping out back and
Speaker 3: forth doing this little sway thing and started motioning, moving
Speaker 3: quickly towards them, and he shot over it and it
Speaker 3: ran off. So Sam's like, all right, I'm not going
Speaker 3: to question this. I've seen it. I'm good. Let's go.
Speaker 3: They finished gathering up and they start heading back. They
Speaker 3: make it back cross that creek near where the other
Speaker 3: camp was, and as they were coming up and through
Speaker 3: that area, fire was still smoldering out of the dirt
Speaker 3: A little bit, right.
Speaker 1: And stay tuned for more sasquatch out to see. We'll
Speaker 1: be right back after these messages.
Speaker 3: Sam was like, shit, let me stop, let me douse
Speaker 3: it a little better, let me stop. More dirt on it.
Speaker 3: As he gets up there, all the dirt and stuff
Speaker 3: he had flung on there, he said, there was approximately
Speaker 3: about a seventeen inch track and it was about six
Speaker 3: seven inches wide. It looked like a huge human footprint.
Speaker 3: That freaked him out. He said. For whatever reason, the
Speaker 3: footprint in the dirt freaked him out more than this
Speaker 3: creature swaying over in the darkness. It made it a
Speaker 3: little more real for him. They beat feet to get
Speaker 3: out of there. As they're trotting along, his friend insisted,
Speaker 3: you go ahead of me because this thing is behind us.
Speaker 3: I want the gun so in case it starts coming
Speaker 3: up behind us, I could turn around and not worry
Speaker 3: about you being in the way. So they're trying along.
Speaker 3: They're not in a but they're in a fast walk.
Speaker 3: They get into a point where the trail cuts up
Speaker 3: away from the river and goes into the trees. That's
Speaker 3: the trail they came out in. So they get up
Speaker 3: the bank. They're in this treat area and off to
Speaker 3: their left, they heard this hollacious cracking sound. He said
Speaker 3: it sounded if someone had taken a huge, at least
Speaker 3: eight inch round tree and just crack it in half,
Speaker 3: if it was dry, just a real loud, snapping crack,
Speaker 3: and it freaked him out. He said that noise really
Speaker 3: startled him and shook him because it was such a
Speaker 3: powerful crack. His friend immediately says, we need to pick
Speaker 3: up our pace, and they're still miles away from their destination.
Speaker 3: They continue along and they keep hearing this different levels
Speaker 3: of breaking and thrashing around off to their left hand side.
Speaker 3: Now they get to a point to where the trail
Speaker 3: breaks off to an old berry picking spot and then
Speaker 3: back towards fort Yukon. They of course were going back
Speaker 3: towards fort Yukon, but as they were in this little
Speaker 3: bit of a clearing where this why was, they both
Speaker 3: look up to their left and this thing is basically
Speaker 3: standing in the trail less than one hundred yards up there,
Speaker 3: just looking at him. He said he still couldn't make
Speaker 3: out what it looked like because it was silhouetted. They
Speaker 3: continued on the fort Yukon. That was his first vacation,
Speaker 3: taking a break from working on the pipelines, he went
Speaker 3: back to work. They left it alone. He didn't tell
Speaker 3: anybody him. Sharing what the channel were the third to
Speaker 3: hear of his experience. His friend has since passed. They
Speaker 3: kept in touch for many years. His friend passed some
Speaker 3: years ago on a boating accident on the Yukon. I'm
Speaker 3: going to thank Sam for sharing. That sucks. That's not
Speaker 3: how anyone wants their vacation. I want to share what
Speaker 3: you guys. Comes from a guy in his mid fifties,
Speaker 3: his named Blake. About six years ago, he asked his uncle,
Speaker 3: who hadn't hunted many years, if he could proxy hunt
Speaker 3: for him because he knew his uncle like cariboo. His
Speaker 3: uncle says, I don't like to thought of you going
Speaker 3: out hunting for me. He was real cryptic in his responses,
Speaker 3: not giving him a definite answer. So finally Blake cornered
Speaker 3: his uncle, and his uncle finally agreed, Okay, I'll let
Speaker 3: you hunt for me. I just don't like the idea
Speaker 3: of you going out in the woods for me. Blake's like, no,
Speaker 3: I'm going for me, but if I'm going to be there,
Speaker 3: I might as well harvest you something. I know you
Speaker 3: love Caribou. They figure all the stuff out, They get
Speaker 3: their paperwork turned in for the proxy hunt permission and
Speaker 3: all that kind of stuff. His uncle, upon leaving, warns
Speaker 3: him about hunting south the Sweet Lake, south of the
Speaker 3: north Fork of the Gulcano, which I've shared I think
Speaker 3: five experiences from this area, which boggles me that more
Speaker 3: people don't come forward, but I understand. So he was
Speaker 3: further south than everyone else. He didn't stay in the shantytown.
Speaker 3: He went out. He found this little honey hole where
Speaker 3: he saw a bunch of moose and figured, all right,
Speaker 3: the moose are down over here. I think I'll go
Speaker 3: over this way and see if I can find some
Speaker 3: caribou which is heading back north towards the Dinnaley Highway.
Speaker 3: So he gets on his four wheeler. It was about
Speaker 3: the second morning, he said. That morning, he said it
Speaker 3: was odd. All the moose were acting weird. Some were
Speaker 3: walking in circles and then looking north, walking in a
Speaker 3: circle and then looking north, and he just he never
Speaker 3: seen that behavior before. So he makes his way pre light,
Speaker 3: and it wasn't as cold as Blake would like it
Speaker 3: to be hunting. He liked it real crispy. He knew
Speaker 3: the animals would be moving. He gets up north, he
Speaker 3: finds this little cut he gets up on this little step.
Speaker 3: He's walking around and he noticed it's an old game trail,
Speaker 3: you know, there's depressions in there that he thought were
Speaker 3: old double bear step prints and just left it at that.
Speaker 3: He was hunting with a magnum, which is a stout round.
Speaker 3: Definitely dropped mooser caribou. He goes around and he finds
Speaker 3: this little patch of alder willows. He kind of creates
Speaker 3: this little opening to where he has a line of
Speaker 3: sight over this little piece of marsh down below him
Speaker 3: from when the caribou come through. The one was in
Speaker 3: his favor. He felt really good about it. So he's
Speaker 3: sitting there for about an hour before daylight. He just
Speaker 3: kept hearing weird noises, like a weird grunting sound. So
Speaker 3: he starts looking off in the distance. He'ssing. He's glassing
Speaker 3: the edge of the black spruce sect. He estimated about
Speaker 3: eight hundred yards out. As he's glassing and looking along,
Speaker 3: he sees a cow moose come out. The cow moose
Speaker 3: comes out and is almost trotting towards him. He had
Speaker 3: already got his moose, so he wasn't out for moose,
Speaker 3: but he was just watching what was unfolding in front
Speaker 3: of him. A bull moose, a young bull moose barely
Speaker 3: above spike and fork, barely had the little paddles. It
Speaker 3: wasn't a mature bull. It follows her out, but he's
Speaker 3: watching and he's just curious by it because nature's unfolding
Speaker 3: before him and no careboul yet, So he's just watching.
Speaker 3: On this step that he was on, down below him
Speaker 3: were these another thick patch alderbrush. It was quite a
Speaker 3: bit of a step. Once he walked around and found
Speaker 3: his spot, it started off slightly sloped, and then as
Speaker 3: he walked around it really stepped off, and then those
Speaker 3: alderbrushes wrapped around. He was on a bend on this
Speaker 3: step where he was looking out, So he's sitting there
Speaker 3: just bored. There's no caribou yet. It's not very cold,
Speaker 3: so he's, you know, I'm going around. He's glass and
Speaker 3: he's moose watching him, and he's hearing this grunt still,
Speaker 3: but he realizes that grunt isn't coming from the moose
Speaker 3: several hundred yards out, is coming from the step down below.
Speaker 3: So he gets curious and he's like, I don't want
Speaker 3: to blow my cover because if a caribou's coming along
Speaker 3: me coming out, I could possibly get winded spook him,
Speaker 3: so I'm just gonna sit tight. So he's in this
Speaker 3: little cubby and he's barely inside the brush, just enough
Speaker 3: to see out, and he keeps listening. The cow moose
Speaker 3: is trotting almost at a full run, towards where he is,
Speaker 3: so he thought, what the hell's going on here? The
Speaker 3: bull moose is chasing because it's in season, so he's
Speaker 3: trying to chase him a piece, But as they cover
Speaker 3: about half the distance, the bull moose immediately busts the
Speaker 3: u turn and haul's ass out of there. And it
Speaker 3: really struck him as funny because this moose is in rut,
Speaker 3: but the moose wanted to get his and he gave
Speaker 3: up right like real easily. And there was no other
Speaker 3: bulls around, so Blake was confused, like, man, what the
Speaker 3: hell is this? He keeps hearing this grunting sound, it's
Speaker 3: more aggressive, and then he hears this low gurgling like
Speaker 3: growl roar sound. He's like, what the what? That must
Speaker 3: be a bear. I must be over a bear kill
Speaker 3: that's down below me and I didn't even know it.
Speaker 3: So his curiosity, he didn't want to stay where he was,
Speaker 3: so he figured, well, if there's a bear here, there
Speaker 3: ain't no caribou coming, So I'm just going to go
Speaker 3: and take a look. I'm here, it's happening. Might not
Speaker 3: take a look, So he quietly as he can, crawls out,
Speaker 3: goes back around a little bit, starts back to where
Speaker 3: it slopes down a little easier, and he comes down
Speaker 3: to where he's on the same plane as the cow moose.
Speaker 3: At this point, because he had to backtrack, he's about
Speaker 3: three hundred yards from where this cow moose was running
Speaker 3: straight in to where his position was up on the hill.
Speaker 3: As came off the trail he was on and was
Speaker 3: on the same plane and started walking towards the cow
Speaker 3: moose to see what was going on. He said there
Speaker 3: was something strange in the air. Lifelong hunter, he'd been
Speaker 3: out several times. He equates it to being immediately next
Speaker 3: to a bear, but there was nothing around. In the moment.
Speaker 3: I asked him, I was like that feeling. What did
Speaker 3: it feel unjust or unnatural? And he said not in
Speaker 3: that moment. As he continued forward, he was doing a
Speaker 3: stock he was spotting the cow is still standing there,
Speaker 3: and the cow was acting really weird. It would take
Speaker 3: a couple of steps forward, acting aggressive with his ears back,
Speaker 3: and then it would back off, and this low, growling,
Speaker 3: gurgling sound was continuing in his line of view. He
Speaker 3: couldn't see what the cow could, so he decided he's
Speaker 3: gonna just flank to his left, stay low. Hopefully the
Speaker 3: wind stays in his favor enough to get an eye
Speaker 3: on what this bear is doing, because in his mind
Speaker 3: he thought it was a bear. So he does this
Speaker 3: little half moment thing, and he's still about two hundred
Speaker 3: yards out. He gets into a position where he sees
Speaker 3: something dark just inside the alders, the cow looking in
Speaker 3: its directions. The cow is acting aggressive, but wasn't coming
Speaker 3: forward to go and stop the bear like you normally would,
Speaker 3: so he's glassing. It's still dark enough to where he
Speaker 3: can't see into that shadow, so he's like, man, so
Speaker 3: I'm gonna get a little closer. I'm armed. I'll be
Speaker 3: a good enough distance away to put some shots on
Speaker 3: a bear if it's charging over its kill or whatever.
Speaker 3: He was just really curious about what was going on,
Speaker 3: so he, little by little is making his way through
Speaker 3: these little in the tundr. You gotta understand his little
Speaker 3: troughs in between, and it's uneven ground, so he's taking
Speaker 3: his time slowly getting closer. He closed the gap about
Speaker 3: one hundred yards, slides up and peeks over. He sees movement,
Speaker 3: and the cow moose is sidestep and out of the view.
Speaker 3: She was blocking what he was trying to look at,
Speaker 3: and as soon as she was clear of it, she
Speaker 3: charged forward a little bit and then backed off again
Speaker 3: and was just all bristled up, ears back and just
Speaker 3: making this weird noise, making a call. He brings up
Speaker 3: the binoculars again. It was still so dark he couldn't
Speaker 3: really see what was going on. All he saw was
Speaker 3: up dark in there, and it was moving back and forth.
Speaker 3: And he heard the gurgling growly as he was getting
Speaker 3: his rifle scope up, because it had a little further
Speaker 3: reach than his binoculars, he was pulling up his rifle
Speaker 3: as so as he pulled his rifle up and put
Speaker 3: his scope over on it, this thing stood up, he said,
Speaker 3: guesstimating by the size of the brush this thing's height,
Speaker 3: he was guessing about ten foot tall. He said. He
Speaker 3: was immediately thrown off because he had never seen a
Speaker 3: bear that big. Grizzly bears usually don't get ten foot tall.
Speaker 3: Coastal brownies will because they got all that salmity, But
Speaker 3: interior grizzlies they maybe max out of seven hundred pounds
Speaker 3: for a really good size one. So he was confused
Speaker 3: at this thing's size. He's man, it's a big bear. Still,
Speaker 3: it was all silhouetted. He couldn't make out any definition.
Speaker 3: He figures, all right, I'm gonna try to get a
Speaker 3: little closer since I'm still at a safe rage to
Speaker 3: get shots on this thing. He again does his little
Speaker 3: crawl thing, and as he got about three more mounds
Speaker 3: of tundra closer, he started getting a sink and feeling like, ah,
Speaker 3: this is a bad idea. So he decides what I'm
Speaker 3: going to do is show myself fully and make some
Speaker 3: noise and disrupt nature and see what I can see.
Speaker 3: Because his curiosity just had him, he stands up and
Speaker 3: starts yelling, hey, he's waving his rifle back and forth,
Speaker 3: making himself bigger. Cow Mus doesn't pay him one lick
Speaker 3: of attention at all. He did not exist. However, the
Speaker 3: dark shadow paid attention to him let out this blood
Speaker 3: curdling scream. Holler, growl, all in unison, just all combined.
Speaker 3: Blake said that we both laughed about it. He said,
Speaker 3: I could share this portion. He wet himself. It startled
Speaker 3: him so badly. He had been drinking coffee all morning
Speaker 3: and sitting there holding it in hopes for caribou, had
Speaker 3: a full bladder when this happened. He wet himself from
Speaker 3: the startle of it. When that scream happened, this thing
Speaker 3: came out of the shadows more into the light. It
Speaker 3: wasn't necessarily full on light yet, but he could see
Speaker 3: see a big, hulking black thing in humanoid shape. He
Speaker 3: said it was still about one hundred and twenty ish
Speaker 3: yards out roughly. The adrenaline dump was very heavy. He
Speaker 3: had almost a half a mile to get to his
Speaker 3: wheeler to get out of there, so he still had
Speaker 3: to go on foot, luckily not towards this thing, but
Speaker 3: away from it. All this is transpiring, he still had
Speaker 3: to make an exit, he said. He lowered down, he
Speaker 3: grabbed his rifle, made sure he was locked and loaded,
Speaker 3: and yelled out, hey, I'm over here, I'm over here right,
Speaker 3: just saying stuff. It made no sense. He even admitted
Speaker 3: it made no sense. He just wanted to make noise,
Speaker 3: human noise. See what happens right, see if the single
Speaker 3: go away. He didn't feel comfortable turning his back trying
Speaker 3: to run away spark some predatory response. He was just
Speaker 3: honestly really freaked out, he said. He was shaking really hard.
Speaker 3: He couldn't bring himself to put the rifle up to
Speaker 3: his shoulder. The cow moose had backed off a little bit.
Speaker 3: This thing after the scream, turned around, walked back towards
Speaker 3: the brush, and then he realized why the cow moose
Speaker 3: was back in that way. The thing was eating its calf.
Speaker 3: That was the noises he was hearing. This thing was
Speaker 3: eating this moose calf. This thing basically took the moose calf,
Speaker 3: had it its whole head in its hand, he said,
Speaker 3: and just nonchalantly walked off to his left. The cow
Speaker 3: moose tried along the little ways and then turned off
Speaker 3: and then went back towards the tree line behind them.
Speaker 3: So what he suspected was this sink got her calf.
Speaker 3: She retreated. This young bull moose, not knowing any better,
Speaker 3: being in season, followed her back. Realized what was going on,
Speaker 3: got the hell out of dodge and with Blake, not
Speaker 3: knowing what was going on up above, came down and
Speaker 3: figured it all out. He said he couldn't give any
Speaker 3: detail other than big dark silhouette moving away, and as
Speaker 3: soon as it was far enough away that he thought
Speaker 3: it couldn't catch up very quickly, he made his escape.
Speaker 3: He he didn't tell anyone else because they hunted as
Speaker 3: a group, but separately. Blake picked his spot and his
Speaker 3: other two buddies picked their spots in different areas. They
Speaker 3: didn't want to all be in one area hunting together,
Speaker 3: so they all picked their areas there. On his way
Speaker 3: back to his camp, he was thinking, I need to
Speaker 3: share this with my buddies. He gets back to camp,
Speaker 3: he ends up not sharing it. He holds onto it.
Speaker 3: The trip was basically ruined for him. The weather came in.
Speaker 3: It was just real horrible for hunting. His buddies showed
Speaker 3: up like, hey, we want to pack it in, so
Speaker 3: he agreed. He didn't want to be there either. He
Speaker 3: was just trying to figure a good excuse. He thought
Speaker 3: about faking appendicitis because he didn't want to look weak
Speaker 3: in front of his friends. I get it. So he
Speaker 3: gets home. He goes and tells his uncle and his
Speaker 3: uncle looked at him and said, damn it, I knew it.
Speaker 3: I didn't want you to go hunt for me. And
Speaker 3: his uncle seemed mad, and he was like, hey, I'm
Speaker 3: trying to tell you something. Here he goes, I saw
Speaker 3: something similar. Not killing a moose or anything, but I
Speaker 3: saw a figure similar. That's why I stopped hunting. That's
Speaker 3: why I didn't want you going hunting for me. That
Speaker 3: was such a strange coincidence. You know, his uncle dealt
Speaker 3: with something similar that stopped him from hunting. Blake, trying
Speaker 3: to be a good guy and look out for his elder,
Speaker 3: has a similar experience. Anyone else out there that have
Speaker 3: been hunters that hunt south of the d'analey Highway, if
Speaker 3: you've seen something similar, please fill us in. I can't
Speaker 3: necessarily say that's a hot spot for activity because as
Speaker 3: this cliche shit, it seems random, but in the same area,
Speaker 3: different years miles apart.
Speaker 1: And stay tuned for more sasquatch out to sea. We'll
Speaker 1: be right back after the east messages, so.
Speaker 3: Keep that in mind. There's not a hairy man behind
Speaker 3: every bush. I don't want people getting that impression. I
Speaker 3: just want them to understand these things They occur in
Speaker 3: random places at random times, especially up here. You could
Speaker 3: see it's turning green a little bit. It's still dense
Speaker 3: to help. If you look, with the leaves and stuff sprouting,
Speaker 3: it's only going to get thicker. I want to thank
Speaker 3: Blake for sharing. I sincerely appreciate you making the time
Speaker 3: and effort. I know I was out of state, man,
Speaker 3: it made it hard to communicate and stuff, so I
Speaker 3: sincerely appreciate you taking the time to make it happen.
Speaker 3: A young lady reached out from an unspecified village early twenties,
Speaker 3: will name her Shiloh. She and one of her little
Speaker 3: cousins are another female in this particular area. They were
Speaker 3: going last year to check on how the berry patches
Speaker 3: were coming, along as an excuse to get away from
Speaker 3: the daily grind and chores of putting up fish and
Speaker 3: all the stuff we do in the village. So they
Speaker 3: took it as an excuse to one look for berries,
Speaker 3: which you're never wasting time there. Basically get a break
Speaker 3: from all the younger kids and whatnot. Right, So Chilo's
Speaker 3: going along and her a little cousin stop at the
Speaker 3: first patch of tundra. There's probably she guesstimated it about
Speaker 3: two miles between tree lines away far tree line and
Speaker 3: away far tree line. They were damn near dead center
Speaker 3: of them, wide open. All that was there was like
Speaker 3: an old wagon wheel trail of four wheeler track, just
Speaker 3: one trail. They stopped at the first match and looking around,
Speaker 3: and she noticed that all little berry bushes, the blackberries
Speaker 3: and stuff looked already picked, not even forming or anything.
Speaker 3: Only a few, like most of them were not ready.
Speaker 3: They were way too green. She knows there was a
Speaker 3: bunch missing, and she just thought it was odd, like
Speaker 3: they should be developing. It looks like they had been
Speaker 3: picked out, because obviously she would know what picked out
Speaker 3: area berries looks like. They continue on down this path
Speaker 3: for about a quarter mile, give her take. She was
Speaker 3: spitballing into gestimation. They get to another spot. They're looking around.
Speaker 3: Her little cousin went to the opposite side to check.
Speaker 3: She gets about thirty yards away. So Doo Shiloh go
Speaker 3: on the opposite direction off this trail, because it's like
Speaker 3: a big horseshoe, and they were just at the apex
Speaker 3: of the horseshoe. Basically, it would be probably eleven thirty
Speaker 3: on the clock. She goes off thirty forty yards just
Speaker 3: glancing down at the tuns or looking at the condition
Speaker 3: of the berries and stuff, and this area didn't look
Speaker 3: all picked out, so she was just kind of gauging.
Speaker 3: Picked a salmon berry was still it wasn't right yet,
Speaker 3: but she picked it anyway, just to get a little
Speaker 3: taste of it. So they're sitting there, time is going by,
Speaker 3: they're dinking around, their eyes are down that every once
Speaker 3: while she'd look around keeping out for bears. They had
Speaker 3: the rifle holder on the front of the four wheeler
Speaker 3: with the shotgun on it. Smart they're ready in case
Speaker 3: anything happened. She said her uncle was very intent on
Speaker 3: every kid knew how to use the shotgun, load the shotgun.
Speaker 3: Every time they left the village, that shotgun had to
Speaker 3: be on the four wheeler, otherwise they did not leave
Speaker 3: the village, which is good in my opinion. Kids should
Speaker 3: know how to properly handle a firearm in the correct context.
Speaker 3: Kurt little cousin found a really good patch, so she
Speaker 3: goes and joins her cousin, which would be the south
Speaker 3: side of the big looping arch of a horseshoe. Sheaped
Speaker 3: four wheeler trail that they used to get back to
Speaker 3: their berry picking spots because they only around the one trail,
Speaker 3: so it wasn't tearing up all the thunder because this
Speaker 3: was prime berry patch, very big berry patch. She joins
Speaker 3: her little cousin. They're sitting there. Her little cousin's picking
Speaker 3: a few of the blackberries are still not quite right,
Speaker 3: but she's just getting a taste of them. You got
Speaker 3: to understand, this is in the early fall. Nothing's quite ripe.
Speaker 3: They're just scouting, basically.
Speaker 1: So they sit there.
Speaker 3: They're playing around, laughing and joking as they're talking. Her
Speaker 3: little cousin had a string, and they're playing this little
Speaker 3: game with the string where you put your fingers do
Speaker 3: and you make all sorts of different broom and all
Speaker 3: this other stuff. They were dinking around, just no worries
Speaker 3: in the world. They're an open tunder. They can see
Speaker 3: something coming from literally a mile in each direction. We
Speaker 3: would look around every once in a while, nothing, So
Speaker 3: they're playing this little string game for a little bit.
Speaker 3: As they're wrapping up being in that area, they get
Speaker 3: back over the four wheeler. They got a couple more
Speaker 3: spots to check to bring back a full report. They
Speaker 3: didn't want to go back home with half the information
Speaker 3: at they're asked to gather. So they continue down a
Speaker 3: little further. It would be approximately about the one one
Speaker 3: thirty area on this horseshoe, if we're looking at it
Speaker 3: as a clock. They've already made it most of the
Speaker 3: way through this loop again, flat tundra. You got the
Speaker 3: divots and stuff in the tundra, but it's wide open.
Speaker 3: There's not even scrub brushing there. At the far far end,
Speaker 3: it's a little bit of marsh before it reached the
Speaker 3: black spruce. So they heard ducks and stuff taken off,
Speaker 3: so they were watching the ducks for a little bit.
Speaker 3: They watched the ducks take off and circle around land again.
Speaker 3: They saw a couple of Canadian geese. They're basically just
Speaker 3: wildlife watching and checking for berries. What more could you
Speaker 3: ask for it? She said, it was super peaceful. The
Speaker 3: sun was out, it wasn't cold, but it wasn't overly hot.
Speaker 3: It was just perfect condition for relaxation. They are literally
Speaker 3: sitting on a four wheeler looking around them in all directions,
Speaker 3: flat tundra, nothing there. They fire up the four wheeler.
Speaker 3: They're going down the trail out of nowhere, about fifty
Speaker 3: yards off to their left hand side, there's this big,
Speaker 3: hulking figure, approximately foot tall at least. She was trying
Speaker 3: to be conservative, is she was like, it's a big
Speaker 3: frickin monster. But the thing of it is that this
Speaker 3: thing was doing this motion. She said. It was almost
Speaker 3: like she fell into a trance. She said, in that moment,
Speaker 3: she felt peace. She felt like her uppu, her grandpa
Speaker 3: was calling her over. It was that kind of feeling
Speaker 3: she was getting from this thing again. This single four
Speaker 3: wheeler trail with ruts, so in order to go towards
Speaker 3: that thing, she had to go over these bumps to
Speaker 3: turn away from the trail. As she did that, she
Speaker 3: pumped her knee hit it pretty hard in a jarring motion.
Speaker 3: Snapped her out of this trance that she had. She
Speaker 3: made eye contact with this thing, she said. The facial
Speaker 3: complexion was a milky gray, very wrinkly pitch black eyes.
Speaker 3: The sun was behind them, so this thing was fully
Speaker 3: lit up right there about fifty yards she guestimated. And
Speaker 3: now they're pointing straight at it. It's not moving, it's
Speaker 3: his gently doing this motion like this. She's out of
Speaker 3: that trence and she recognized who was overcome that she
Speaker 3: had been fooled. Something was tricking her mind into thinking
Speaker 3: that this creature was their friend, initially until she bumped
Speaker 3: her knee, and that snapped her out of it. She said.
Speaker 3: In that moment, the realization of what was happening was
Speaker 3: so overwhelming to her, she had tears streaming. Of course,
Speaker 3: she banked back up onto the trail and hauled ash.
Speaker 3: She went and grabbed one of her older cousins, said
Speaker 3: was the only one around. Everyone else jumped on a
Speaker 3: skiff and they were doing stuff outside of the village
Speaker 3: while they had been gone, so there was just one
Speaker 3: older cousin, a male. They got her young cousin into
Speaker 3: the house, doors locked, all that stuff. Don't answer the doortell,
Speaker 3: we give back her and her older male cousin went
Speaker 3: back out that way. When they get back out to
Speaker 3: where it had gone down or whatever, they had no
Speaker 3: cameras or anything like that. She just recently got her
Speaker 3: cell phone when she moved away from the village, so
Speaker 3: there was no portable cameras. I asked, because there was big, heavy,
Speaker 3: deep impressions, she said. It was very reminiscent of the
Speaker 3: pictures Vincent Wassley sent with the tungeer broken with the
Speaker 3: foot imprint. Her older cousin was just, ah, jeez, yeah,
Speaker 3: because at first he thought they were just being silly
Speaker 3: little girls. Maybe a bear was there. They got startled.
Speaker 3: He was looking for reasoning to dismiss the girls because
Speaker 3: they were silly girls. He was obviously wrong because she's
Speaker 3: very sharp. They get there, he pops the shotgun out
Speaker 3: of the holder, and they go over and she shows
Speaker 3: them where the tracks are. They look and they see
Speaker 3: the tracks going in a straight line, one in front
Speaker 3: of the other. They weren't offset. It literally went back
Speaker 3: towards that pond. Now that pond was a distance away,
Speaker 3: because they could barely see it as a sliver at
Speaker 3: the distance, and when the ducks were taken off and
Speaker 3: flying around earlier, so they decide they got the gun.
Speaker 3: She's got a male companion with her to go and
Speaker 3: check it out. He was curious, She was terrified. She
Speaker 3: kept telling them, I told you, I'm telling the truthless goal.
Speaker 3: He knows, I'm going to see this thing for myself,
Speaker 3: so I could say I saw it and not just
Speaker 3: have it a track in the ground, right, she said.
Speaker 3: He was a little older, so that would make him
Speaker 3: going into the late twenties. They start walking and she
Speaker 3: didn't want to be alone, so she's stuck by him.
Speaker 3: He had the gun a hard head to go and
Speaker 3: check this situation out. They walked. They followed the track.
Speaker 3: She said she had to take four steps to equal
Speaker 3: one stride length of this thing. She said, she's five
Speaker 3: foot seven. You used to run cross country, so she
Speaker 3: was used to taking longer steps. She said. It was
Speaker 3: four of hers compared to the one her older cousin.
Speaker 3: The further they got away from the four wheeler trail,
Speaker 3: the more nervous he got. So they got about one
Speaker 3: hundred yards from the four wheeler. When across that pond
Speaker 3: away they saw this dark figure standing there and it's
Speaker 3: doing this number really hard, swaying back and forth really hard.
Speaker 3: Her cousin spots it just as she spots it, and
Speaker 3: he starts waving his hands up with the shot in
Speaker 3: his hand. Hey over here, you know, trying to get
Speaker 3: its attention because this thing was focused on them, but
Speaker 3: it just kept swaying. So he was like, okay, I
Speaker 3: see it as the Harry manner. They start going back
Speaker 3: towards the four wheeler. Every few steps, her cousin was
Speaker 3: looking back to make sure they weren't being followed. The
Speaker 3: problem was every time he looked back, it was in
Speaker 3: a different position, coming towards them, covering ground rather quickly.
Speaker 3: He got her to start running, and he started running.
Speaker 3: Got back to the four wheeler when they jumped on
Speaker 3: and he put the shotgun in the holder. This thing
Speaker 3: was within one hundred yards already and closing in on
Speaker 3: them very fast. He fired up the four wheeler, had
Speaker 3: it running, and then he felt this thing was coming,
Speaker 3: beelining for him, so he pulled the shotgun back out
Speaker 3: and fired around in the air, racked another shell in
Speaker 3: when he shot into the air. This thing at tumble
Speaker 3: and then tumbled again, then took off on all fours,
Speaker 3: heading about approximately three quarters of a mile to the
Speaker 3: tree line, to the opposite side of this huge opening
Speaker 3: of tundra. He feels safer now because it's running away,
Speaker 3: the four wheelers running. She's looking all around for any
Speaker 3: other ones. The thought of how quickly these things moved,
Speaker 3: because this thing that they said it did not stop.
Speaker 3: It hit the tree line. They hard some crashing at
Speaker 3: a distance. It was just gone, disappeared. So they look
Speaker 3: around a little more. Go back, talk to her little cousin.
Speaker 3: When the other folks came back, the older cousin went
Speaker 3: with other males from the village. They went out. If
Speaker 3: anyone else knows what I'm talking about, Shallow is not
Speaker 3: a real name. I'm not naming the village. But she
Speaker 3: said there was several others part of this, so if
Speaker 3: you are one of those, please reach out. Any others
Speaker 3: from this particular area where if this sounds familiar and
Speaker 3: you were part of that, please speak out. They go
Speaker 3: back with all the older males. He takes them right
Speaker 3: to where this thing went into the trees. They paired
Speaker 3: up in groups of two. There was approximately eight of them,
Speaker 3: so there's four little groups, all armed, looking not to
Speaker 3: kill it, but to make it clear it can't come.
Speaker 3: They wanted it to feel unwelcome, right because the way
Speaker 3: they viewed it, this thing was awfully freaking friendly and
Speaker 3: awfully open daylight to keep accosting younger people. They weren't
Speaker 3: going to have it. So they hit the trees and
Speaker 3: they break up into their team, some safety buddy and whatnot.
Speaker 3: They got to the back side of that tree line
Speaker 3: and there are some smaller marshes with little islands of
Speaker 3: spruce and stuff.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 3: What I mean by an island of spruce is you'll
Speaker 3: have a bunch of muskeg and tundra and swampy areas,
Speaker 3: and they'll be just like a little island of black
Speaker 3: spruce streets. A lot of them are dwarfed out from
Speaker 3: all the alkaline and stuff. You know, you had all
Speaker 3: these little patches here and there. Once they got to
Speaker 3: the tree line, because there was easy to follow the
Speaker 3: tracks to the tree line. But then once it hit
Speaker 3: the tree line, it was broken up. And how it
Speaker 3: was moving from what was told to me, it was sporadic.
Speaker 3: How it was going through the trees. I don't know,
Speaker 3: if it was to lose the trail, whatever, I don't know.
Speaker 3: All speculation. So they're on the backside when they were
Speaker 3: at the edge of this tree line, they're looking out
Speaker 3: across the muskeg on the opposite side to see if
Speaker 3: it had continued, and they noticed some spots that they
Speaker 3: assumed were its tracks still going away. So they were
Speaker 3: happy that it was gone out of the area and
Speaker 3: still moving away. So they felt safe enough and they
Speaker 3: retreated back. Shiloh said that two weeks later, three weeks later,
Speaker 3: someone had some smoked salmon hanging that they had not
Speaker 3: tended to. They were busy doing other things. They just
Speaker 3: hadn't quite tinded to their smoked salmon and their smokehouse.
Speaker 3: Their particular house is right at the edge of the village.
Speaker 3: The smokehouse mysteriously was knocked down. It didn't look damaged,
Speaker 3: It just looked like it was pushed over. There was
Speaker 3: some tracks seen, but the person who saw the track
Speaker 3: was a younger kid that thought they were bear tracks.
Speaker 3: Ran told someone, and I saw bear tracks. Oh well, okay,
Speaker 3: it makes sense. They thought nothing of the hairyman. They
Speaker 3: thought a bear pushed it over, being a brute, just
Speaker 3: pushed it over and took the fish right. They were
Speaker 3: upset about that. Now they hadn't forgot the hairyman thing,
Speaker 3: but it wasn't fresh on their mind. This was a
Speaker 3: few weeks later. So the kid that found it knocked
Speaker 3: over whatever, went and told his dad. His dad grabbed
Speaker 3: his bear gun, went and tracked this thing aways. He
Speaker 3: got approximately three hundred yards from the village proper where
Speaker 3: they were at on this little game trail, and he
Speaker 3: was coming up to where the trail entered the black
Speaker 3: spruce in the willows, he felt something had never felt before,
Speaker 3: a very unnatural fear that compelled him to stay where
Speaker 3: he was knelt down and was eyeing. He felt like
Speaker 3: he's being watched, and he was trying to discern where
Speaker 3: is he being watched from.
Speaker 1: Stay tuned for more sasquatchy out to sea. We'll be
Speaker 1: right back after the east messages.
Speaker 3: As he's doing so, he noticed his movement. This is
Speaker 3: big movement in the trees, and he thought, God, that's
Speaker 3: too big to be a bear. They weren't used to
Speaker 3: bears that big in there. Big bear is an area,
Speaker 3: but not that big. So from what this guy says,
Speaker 3: this sink came out and he's less than thirty yards
Speaker 3: from this tree line. This think comes out and it
Speaker 3: has a handful of if salmon strips. But these salmon
Speaker 3: strips are approximately eighteen to twenty two inches long, each
Speaker 3: looking like little pieces of grass sticking out on each
Speaker 3: end of this thing's big hand. The guy got the
Speaker 3: hell out of there. From what I understand was the
Speaker 3: last sighting. That was the last experience. Then this is
Speaker 3: just last year, last fall. There hasn't been anything since.
Speaker 3: She just moved away from the village February ish and
Speaker 3: is currently an anchorage. I want to thanks Shiloh very
Speaker 3: much for reaching out. Very bright young lady, very concise
Speaker 3: in what she was talking about, very sharp girl. I
