You Don’t Want To Go To Ghost Mountain at Night! - My Bigfoot Sighting Episode 94

Here you there, Thanks for tuning in. You're ready for another episode of
My big Foot Sighting. All right, then let's do this. Seen a
bunch of run down now horse towns where the church at the backbone was in
the power and the posting melodies cove in. But the bombman rose, where
the roots run deep beyond the noise of the busy streets with the songs of
the south or so then when I hear the promp boat picking down home rhythm
bringing out I don't run from banjam music. Yeah. My big Foot sighting
occurred in the year two thousand and seven and Timmans, Ontario. We were
both seventy kilometers west of the little town. It's a mining town up in
northern Ontario. Very densely forested area, Lots of coniferous trees, lots of
sandy roads. It's number one gold mining area in the world, with one
hundred and eighty million ounces mined out of the area. A lot of logging
industry. Very remote. Ontario is a massive province. Most of it is
uninhabited. If you get lost in Ontario, you could walk pretty much to
the Arctic without seeing anybody. It's that vast. It's quite a cold temperatures
even in the summer. The temperatures can go down to seven eight degrees right
in the middle of the summer. Lots of bears, lots of moose.
Deers generally don't survive in northern Ontario. There's a lot of wolves, a
lot of predation. It's fairly rugged country. There's quite a lot of mountains,
not huge mountains, but hills, a lot of oatcrops, granted oat
crops, and it's kind of the land of a thousand Lakes. There's thousands
of lakes, big, small, and rivers that run right through to James
Bay. Timmins, Ontario was part of the Arctic Watershed, meaning that all
the lakes and rivers eventually find their way into the Arctic Ocean from that point.
So it's quite a remote northerly area. And the hunting is world class
and the fishing is world class. With that being said, I was quite
an avid outdoorsman, you know, in that part of my life. I
spent a lot of times hunting and fishing and pursuing game. There was seemed
to be a season for everything. I had a camp at the time,
since then we sold it, but I had a camp on a lake called
Opishing Lake. It was a nice camp. It was rugged. It had
electricity, but it was rugged, and I used to spend a lot of
my time there, a lot of my weekends, and as much time as
I could get off of work, I'd always be out there, you know,
enjoying the wilderness. And it was quite a great time in my life.
I was, you know, young, full of energy in my early
thirties, and I always had a lot of fun fishing and hunting and enjoying
my time outdoors. And you know, I was not afraid of anything.
I had a nice hunting dog. He was a black lab his name was
Buck. He was very in tune to the animals in the area, and
he seemed to understand what I was pursuing. So usually I was with him
unless I big game hunting, and then I'd leave him at home because sometimes
he'd scare off the animals. Then I didn't want that, especially when it
came to moose hunting. Anyway, the year two thousand and seven, it
must have been November, late October, early November. I was hunting for
moose and I had come to a place maybe five six miles from my camp.
It was a logging area. Now when they log up there, they
usually take one mile by one mile blocks of forest out and they'll build a
road going in, and then they'll log an area a mile by a mile,
and then they'll sometimes they'll go beside it and do another one and they
take sections of forest out. But what happens is after they take the logs
out, the vegetation that grows where they've logged often attracts moose in numbers,
and it also allows you as a hunter to get visuals on the animals.
So other than that, you really can't see into the forest very far at
all, like maybe five ten feet in that area. The bush is so
dense and dark you really can't get a visual. So it's very hard to
close distance on these moose when you're pursuing them. So as an experienced hunter,
I would spend my time in the cuts new cuts to be more precise,
hunting moose and trying to get a visual on something that I could shoot
now. In Ontario, in those years, if you didn't draw a tag
for an adult moose, you would have to shoot a calf. When you
bought a moose license, you automatic we're given a calf tag and you would
enter a draw for an adult tag, and if you didn't draw an adult
tag, you're pretty much hunting calfs, and they're a little bit more tricky
because they don't answer calls. So pretty much what you have to do is
you have to call the mother out and hopefully she brings the calf with her,
and then you shoot the calf. So this year, in particular,
I didn't have a tag for an adult. I had a calf tag,
and I was trying to focus my hunting on finding that elusive calf and that
cow that was harboring a calf. So it was a tougher hunt. But
I knew the area well and like I said, the evidences in the ground,
so I was always tracking animals and I had this one particular cut oh
Boots six seven miles south of my camp, and it seemed to be pretty
pretty active. Like I would show up there in the mornings and I would
see quite a few moose tracks, that moose that had been frequent in the
area. I see the tracks, and actually I had come across to bull
moose the night before my experience. They seemed to be in the area and
they were fighting and I laid eyes on them, and I watched them,
and it was quite something to see. They were in the area, and
they were scenting the area. They were leaving their mark and scenting and not
often acts as like a magnet for cows that are in heat and calfs that
are following with them. Right, So I was pretty focused on this area.
I had spotted a calf and a cow track one day I was hunting
and it was getting pretty late, so they seemed to go down into this
valley. I said, well, it's getting pretty late, you know,
it's almost sundown. I'm not going to have time to pursue them. They're
not going to come back out in the open tonight. So what I'm going
to do is I'm going to go back to my camp and I'm going to
wait to the wee hours of the morning, and I'm going to go to
where I saw the last track of them, and I'm going to try to
call them out for sun up the next morning. So I went back to
my camp and I wasn't alone. I was with a friend of mine.
She was a good friend who often accompanied me on my hunting trips. She
was a northern girl, She enjoyed the outdoors as much as I did,
and we were good friends, and you know, I thought she'd be perfect
to be with me on this hunt. So she tagged along for the ride.
And so we went back to my camp and we watched the movies,
and we took it easy that evening and pretty much got ready for the next
morning. And we went to bed nice and early. And the following morning,
we woke up at four o'clock and made ourselves a thermos full of coffee
and ate something quickly, and we headed back out to the cut. And
the idea is that I was going to call these moose back out in the
dark, so that when it just got bright, just as the sun came
up, they would be out in the open. Because the habits of these
mooses, I find that they don't like to be in the open during the
daylight hours. So you'll catch them in the morning first thing, and just
before sundown they'll come out to these open areas because they're pretty crafty themselves.
So we showed up that maybe, oh four thirty five o'clock. We showed
up in the cuts, and I remember my truck, the muffler. It
wasn't exactly intact. So it was pretty loud going into this area, and
I didn't want to go as far as where I had seen them go into
the valley. So I took the road and went nice and slow as I
could, and crawled in there with the truck, and I parked the vehicle.
And what ended up happening was I shut the vehicle down, and I
rolled open the windows a little bit and and told my friend, I said,
Jess, I said, you stay here, stay in the truck here,
and I'm going to go out to the end of the dirt road here.
I'm going to walk out there. It was probably about one hundred and
fifty yards. I said, I'm going to go to the edge of the
forest and I'm going to call those that cow and the calf out of the
valley and see if they respond. So the road here. At SunUp,
we'll get our shot. But it was very dark and I couldn't see very
much. So I grabbed my rifle, and I grabbed my moose call,
and I proceeded to exit the truck and I walked about one hundred and fifty
yards down this logging road to where it ended, and I pointed the moose
caller at the forest and I gave a tug on the raw hide string.
The moose call was all it was was a raw hide string that was going
through a can. It was a big metal can with a rawhide string attached
to it. And what you do is you just wet the rawhide string and
you pull it, and it sounds kind of like a grunting bull, but
it's louder. It's a little bit louder than that. So I did that.
I went the raw hide string up and I walked to the edge of
the forest and I gave it a tug and it sounded, you know,
like a big bullgrun you know. It was like pretty loud, and it
was like a very low pitched sound that vibrated through the still night air.
And I waited a minute, and of course I did it again and started
listening, and all of a sudden, I heard what sounded like a crazy
man start yelling out in the middle of the valley that I was calling into.
He started screaming like he was very angry. It couldn't be a man
because it was too loud and it was too angry, and I couldn't make
sense of it. I couldn't understand why this this crazy man was in the
forest in the middle of nowhere at that time of night. I just couldn't
understand what was happening. So it didn't make a lot of sense to me.
So I actually got a little bit spooed by that because I didn't expect
to hear that, and it seemed like he was having a fit of rage
really down in that valley. And I got to thinking, I can't see
anything. I better get back to the truck before that thing decides to come
up at me and cut me off. So I actually turned around with my
rifle in my hand, and I had a big rifle it was. It
was a third thirty odd six, quite a big caliber, and you know
that gun could pretty much kill an elephant. And I pretty much found myself
running back to my truck with my rifle in hand. And I got to
the truck and I jumped into the truck and I Jess was sitting there and
I said, do you hear that? And she goes she said, yeah,
I hear that. I said, what is that? And she said,
I don't know. I said, why is that so angry? Why
is that? Whatever that is so angry. She looked puzzled as I was,
and you could still hear it screaming in the forest, and it seemed
to be having a fit of rage. And I didn't know why. I
didn't know what the purpose was. Actually, I thought that somebody had to
escape the mental asylum in Timmins. And I asked her, I said,
did you hear anything on the news about somebody escaping the mental asylum and Timmins
yesterday? And she said no, I didn't hear anything. And I said,
well, whatever that is down there, or whoever that is, is
not all there. They're not there. Nobody gets that angry for no reason.
I said, so what do you think that could be? She said,
I don't know. I said, do you think it's some campers maybe
that are playing a trick on us? Do you think they've put a speaker
in a tree to try to scare us off away from their hunting area?
And she said, well, possibly, And I said, well it must
be, I said, because I don't think a person could yell that loud
and be that angry for no apparent reason. She said it could be.
I said, your doors locked, right, She said, yeah, my
door is locked. I said, good, keep it locked and keep the
window of crack open because I want to hear what's going on down there.
So we kept listening, and it seemed to be yelling and screaming, and
it didn't seem to want to stop. It was very voice and I said,
well, I said, what we can do is we can wait until
sun up. I said, our hunt is probably not going to happen.
Those moose are probably scared and run away by now. I said, I
can't see them sticking around in the valley with that thing whatever it is,
with that noise going on there. But I want to find out who's down
there. So let's wait here and we'll in the morning. You know,
we'll they'll have a camp fire and we'll see the smoke, and we'll go
down and we'll find them and we'll find out exactly what's happening, and you
know, we'll look for their vehicle too in the area. So we waited
there for a little while, and all of a sudden we saw a strange
light coming out of the forest. And it wasn't a direct light, it
was like a glow. And I said, there's the person right there.
I said, they must be wearing a headlamp walking out of the forest.
I said, but what in the heck would somebody be doing in the forest
in the middle of the night. What would their purpose be? I mean,
they can't do any shooting, but their vehicle must be here, and
we're gonna wait for this person to come out and we'll stop and we'll talk
to them and find out what it is they're doing there. So the light
kind of came slowly through. You could see it moving through the cut,
and it kind of came to a spot where, well, there was like
a road that was behind us, okay, And I said, well,
I said, we're gonna that light has kind of gone to that road.
I'm like, we're gonna see that person walk behind our truck and I'll get
out and I'll talk to them and find out if they've decided to play a
prank on us. Well, that person was never behind us. There was
nobody that hit that road. In fact, as soon as it got light,
I got out of the truck again and with my rifle, and the
road was right behind me. I went up and I looked and there was
nobody there at all. And I said, wow, I said, that
is too strange. I said, what was that. I looked in the
ground and there was no tracks. I went down the road to that road,
hit a dead end and there was no car there. I looked into
the valley for a campfire or any sign of somebody camping down there, and
there was nobody there. And there was nobody actually in the whole area.
I'd say within six miles of me. There was nobody there at all.
But there was a light that definitely appeared there, and we thought it was
a person wearing a headlamp, but there was nobody there. There was nobody
in the area, so we were puzzled, and eventually, you know,
the screaming stopped during the night. It sounded like there was a fight between
a moose and whatever was screaming. It sounded like there was a little bit
of a ruckuss there, but it was not human and there was no humans
in the area. So we were perplexed. And we didn't necessarily think Bigfoot
or sasquatch at the time, because that thought never crossed our mind. We
weren't believers in Bigfoot. We didn't explore that realm of possibility. But the
yelling was quite unlike anything I've heard before. It was like a madman that
was having a fit in the middle of the forest at night. We just
chalked it up as you know, somebody was trying to play a prank on
us. But we never did see anybody there. There was nobody there,
and we were just left confused. So the next day we left the cut.
We didn't really think that those moose were still in the area. Our
hunt cut short. We went back to the camp and we went to sleep
and caught up on some sleep, and pretty much that was it for our
moose hunt in that area, because we figured those moose had been scared off
and we had to start now looking at the new areas. So I drove
just back to town and I had to work that day. I had some
small errands to do in the afternoon, and I did my errands and and
then I called my girlfriend up, and she was an Indigenous. She's a
Native American Indian, and I thought, well, you know, she might
have knowledge of what the strange lights could be and what the yelling could have
been. You might know something about that, because Native American Indians are pretty
in tune with the northern boreal forest, and you know, they spent centuries
there and they seem to have some kind of knowledge that maybe I didn't have.
So I called her. She was done working about five to six o'clock
and I called her up and I said, hey, I said, I
had a really weird experience last night. You know, there's a crazy man
in the bush yelling back on the cuts when I was hunting moose with Jess,
And I said, and we saw some mysterious lights and we thought there
were it was somebody, but it was nobody. You know, is there
anything in your culture that maybe your mother or father knows about these mysterious lights
that we had seen. And did you hear anything about on the news some
escaping a mental asylum in town? Did you hear anything like that? She
said, no, nobody escaped the mental asylum. And she said sometimes Native
American Indians talk about which lights that happened in the bush at night, And
I said which lights? I said, well, what's that? And she
pretty much gave me a little bit of an explanation there, and I said,
well, I said I could take you there tonight if you want to
see them. I said, maybe you'll hear the crazy man yelling there.
I said, you want to go it's really really puzzling me. I said,
I'd like to take you and show you. Maybe they'll come back,
the lights might come back, and maybe the crazy man will still be there
in the area. Maybe we'll find out what exactly that was. And she
said, yeah, sure, she goes, I'll come with you and I'll
check it out. I said, okay, I said, let's go.
So she jumped in the truck, grabbed a rifle and went to the camp.
And we spent the night at the camp. And the next morning,
you know, four in the morning, we got in the truck and we
drove up to the cuts and we parked in exactly the same spot. You
know, this time I didn't get out though out of the truck. I
just parked the truck in the exact same spot. And I said, wait,
you might see the lights. I said, just wait right here,
and she said okay. So we were waiting in the truck and we're trucks
turned off and we didn't hear any yelling. But again I didn't leave the
truck and call, but we didn't hear any more yelling. It was pretty
silent in the bush. But they're from the edge of the tree line.
Came the lights again, and I said, there's the lights that I'm telling
you about. I said, did you see that? She said yeah.
I said what is that? She said, I don't know. She goes,
I've never seen anything like that before. I said, okay. I
said, well, it's coming towards us, so let's see. Let's just
wait here and see what happens. Still, the light came and slowly meandered
through the cut and it came towards us and where we're sitting there watching it,
and the lights came over, and this time the lights got a little
bit closer to the truck, and there was a pilot of logs sitting about
forty yards to the south of me, and the light appeared to go on
top of the pilot of logs, and I could see a bunch of caribou
running through the lights, but it was like the spirit of cariboos, like
a whole herd running through the lights. And I said to her, I
said, do you see what I see? And she goes, a bunch
of caribou running through the lights. I said yeah, I said that's what
I see and she goes, yeah, I see that. I said,
what is that? She goes, I do not know. I said,
have you ever heard or seeing anything like that before in your life? It
goes, no, I haven't, I said, Well, you're seeing the
same thing I'm seeing, I said, And it is just too weird,
you know. A few minutes later, the light dissipated, and maybe a
half hour later the sun came up, and we did a little bit of
hunting, and we didn't ever track the moose we were after. We couldn't
track those moose down, and so, you know, we left and we
were very puzzled by the whole incident. So we just really didn't know what
to think of what happened there. And I don't think I was very comfortable
going back to that area at night hunting anymore. It was late in the
season and there was no point and continuing to go back there walking around by
myself. I was a little bit spooked by the crazy man that I heard
in the forest, and I couldn't make sense of it. I didn't think
sasquatch or bigfoot. I didn't think any of those things. It was more
of a mystery to me at the time than anything. So I avoided the
area and continued my hunt somewhere else that year and pretty much just left it
at that. And it actually wasn't until six years later when I was on
YouTube. I saw a video that was titled Sasquatch audio, and I decided
to click on it to hear what they sound like. And I'm telling you,
it sounded exactly like what I had heard that night. And I put
the pieces together and I said, you know what, I said, that's
very likely. That is too coincidental that that sounded exactly like what I heard.
And it was at that moment that I realized that, you know,
that very well could have been a Sasquatch. So I thought to myself,
I thought, well, if that happened to me in that area, it
must have happened to other people. So I looked on I typed in on
the computer Ontario Sasquatch Reports, and sure enough, there was about one hundred
Sasquatch reports, most of them from up in that area to the Bigfoot Reporting
Center I call it the BFR. So I said, wow, I said,
I guess a lot of people have had encounters in the area and that
must have been what we heard that night. So I kind of pieced that
together that way. It happened years after I had heard the screaming that I
realized how close I was that night to an encounter. And ironically enough,
a lot of the encounters that happened in the area were from moose hunters,
people that were hunting moose that had gotten close to herd a moose because moose
will herd up together at that time of year, and it seems to be
that the sasquatch what they'll do is they'll target them and they'll shadow the herd,
waiting for an opportunity. So a lot of the encounters that I read
about it was from moose hunters that just had come across a sasquatch as they
were targeting moose, So I thought that was another coincidence. So I said,
yeah, it seems to be that these things they'll target moose and they'll
target animals like that at night, and a lot of the encounters and the
audio that people here are at night, that was another coincidence. They liked
the night time, they're nocturnal, and they like to pursue big animals,
So there's a lot of coincident this is there. So that's what made me
believe with some kind of certainty that I had been relatively close to one and
I had run into one. And what probably happened was I was targeting the
same prey that he was targeting, and that's probably why he got so mad,
you know, and freaked out when he realized that I was pursuing the
game that he was pursuing. That's my explanation for it. But I'll tell
you, these things can become angry. And I'm sure if he wanted to,
he could have caught up with me in the middle of the night because
I couldn't see anything even though I had a rifle on me. I'm one
hundred percent sure that he could have taken me out had I not acted quickly
and ran back to the truck. Now, that was my first kind of
close encounter with one, and that's why all these coincidences had me believing that
these things exist. And you know, I was pretty well seasoned hunter.
You know, it was nothing for me to go in the bush at night
with a rifle and hunt bear going to a bear stand at night by myself,
but for something to make me run away with a gun in my hand
was obviously not a natural thing, because generally I did not run from anything
with the wilderness. But in this particular instance, I was running away with
my gun in my hand, and that was my first kind of encounter with
them, and I didn't realize what it was till years later. My next
encounter, it happened about a year later, and this time I caught a
glimpse of what I equated to being a sasquatch, and it was. It
was very peculiar. I was sitting with my girlfriend in Timmins and said to
me, she said, my mother heard from the indigenous people on the reserve
that they saw something. They saw something peculiar at the reserve. And I
said, oh yeah, I said, well, what did they see?
And she said, well, they saw a minotaur. And I said,
oh, they saw a minotaur, didn't they? And she said yeah.
It had like a man's head with antlers, and it had like a mouse's
body, and it walked up to a vehicle close enough to a vehicle that
they were in, and they all freaked out and they panicked and they drove
off back to the village. And I said, is that right? And
I kind of laughed it off because I didn't believe it. I said,
that doesn't make any sense. I said, I don't know about that,
you know, I said, is that even possible? That doesn't make a
lot of sense. So I kind of shrugged it off, and I didn't
think much about that. You know. I actually made light of it and
made jokes about it, and it's kind of something I just really didn't believe
at the time. Anyway, we decided to go hunting, we would sometimes
we'd go to the reserve and we'd go hunting on the reserve. It's had
It's probably about maybe ten kilometers wide and oh maybe fifteen kilometers long. There's
a little village there. I don't really want to name the reserve because I
want to respect the privacy of the Indigenous people that live there, and they're
pretty secretive about this type of thing. So I can't really give up that
location because I don't want to draw attention to them, and I don't want
to people going there and asking questions. It's just I don't think they want
that by the way they treated the whole situation. But I will tell you
that we were camping there one weekend, me and our parents, and we
were hunting moose and partridge or grouse. We were relaxing and hunting. And
I had my hunting dog with me and we shot a bunch of grouse that
weekend, and we were looking for moose tracks. And it's a very sandy
area. There's a lot of sand there, and there's a road that'll take
you right back into the reserves. It's about twenty twenty five kilometers long.
Road zigs and zags and you know, goes in different directions, and there's
side roads that you can go down and explore, and it's quite a vast
area and it's maybe about one hundred and forty kilometers from tim Ands. This
area. There's a village there. There's probably about one hundred Indigenous people that
live there in the village, but they have access to quite a bit of
land outside of the reserve that's considered reserve land. And my girlfriend's mother being
Indigenous, she had access to that reserve and we'd be invited to go hunting
sometimes there and we liked it because we had freedom to do what we wanted
out there. So we decided to go hunting for a weekend. They invited
us up and I think it was around Thanksgiving weekend, if I'm not mistaken.
Two thousand and eight, and we were hunting away, having a good
time and enjoying ourselves. And on Sunday, my father in law he came
over to me. His name was Ron, and he came over to me
and he said, Jay. He goes, we're heading out. It was
about four o'clock in the afternoon. He said, we're heading out now.
He said, but two miles back. But down the road over there,
he goes. When I was on my way back to the camp site,
he goes, I noticed a moose, cal moose across the road. He
goes, I saw her tracks. They're very fresh, he said, she
but she was at a full run. I guess he could tell because the
length of the stride. He said, she was at a full run,
and she was. She ran into the valley over there. After lunch,
he goes, you go back there. I bet you you could catch up
to her. And I said, oh yeah, I said, you know
what, run, I said, I will do that. I said,
because we have, you know, six seven hours before dark. I said,
I'll see if I can track her down and get a shot before we
get out of here for this weekend. So we ate her lunch really quick,
and he took off, and I took off the other way, and
I came to the tracks and I looked and I said, you know what,
I said, this is very odd. I said, very odd for
this moose to be running in the high country in the middle of the day
like this. I said, you know, broad daylight. I said,
that's not normal. I said, something's got to be chasing this thing.
I said, but regardless, we're going to go after her. And she
had run into a valley and the valley was very sparsely treated, and there
was like a white moss all over the ground, and you could really see
far into this valley. You could see you could pretty much stand on the
top side of it and really see right down to the other side of it.
I said, we're going to be able to get a shot here,
because she's out in the open in the daytime, and that's not typical.
I said, So we're going to track her, I said, So we
parked the truck and we walked down into the valley and we kind of stayed
on the upper side and we were looking and looking, and we kept walking
and walking and walking, and we walked maybe oh three quarters of a mile,
and we came to a crossroad there, and we're in there, and
I couldn't seem to catch up to this moose. It seemed to be one
step ahead of us at all times. And I could see the tracks and
the moss. I could see where she had stepped down on the moss and
where her tracks were, and but I couldn't close the distance, and I
couldn't see her because she was staying kind of close to the tree line.
She really didn't go out down and in the open area, she stayed close
to the tree line, and she was zig zagging in and out, and
you know, and and I was pursuing her, and I could not catch
up to her. So we came to a cross road there, a little
side road that we had run into, and it was sand and I could
see, you know, she had crossed it. And I said, well,
I said, I don't. I think she's a little bit up there,
and I don't think we're going to be able to catch up to her.
And you know, my girlfriend at the time, she goes, uh,
I want to get out of here. I said, what do you
mean. She said, I don't feel right. She goes, I'm very
scared right now. I want to leave I said, why, she goes,
I just want to leave, and she actually started to cry. She
goes, I just want to leave. She goes. We got to get
out of here now, I said, listen. I said, calm down.
I said, I have the thirty odd six with me. I said,
what are you afraid? If nothing can get close to us, I
said, anything comes close to us, I'm going to shoot it. I
said, I got the gun here. I said, you don't have to
be afraid. She goes, I just want to leave. She goes.
Let's get out of here, I said, listen. I said, we'll
go back to the truck. Okay, I said, we'll go back to
the truck. We'll get in the truck, and we'll go down to where
the road turns ninety degrees. I said that moose will cross at that spot.
I said, when she crosses the road, we're going to get our
shot. I said, because probably about another mile and a half two miles
up from where we were, the main road that we were on, it
turned ninety degrees, and she seemed to be going right to that area that
I can see. So I said, we're gonna go there and we're gonna
cut her off. I said, so let's get back to the truck and
we'll drive down there. We'll hit the ninety. We'll go down the ninety,
and we'll see in the ground if she's already crossed there. If she
hasn't, we'll wait there on that road and she'll be coming into it.
So we walked about three cords of a mile back to the truck, and
we jumped in the truck and we followed the dirt road down and then it
turned that ninety degrees and so we made the turn, and I'm going nice
and slow up the road and and I'm looking for where she had if she
had crossed yet, and she hadn't rosst So I followed the road about a
kilometer down, and there was no sign that she had crossed that road.
So I turned the truck around. I said, she's going to cross in
front of us, right in front of us here. I said, let's
just go slowly back and she'll probably be coming out anytime. So we turned
the truck around and we started slowly, you know, going back, maybe
you know, two kilometers an hour in the truck, and and we're just
waiting for her to come out in front of us, and I had the
rifle in the truck, and i'm I'm going and we're traveling back and it's
broad daylight note And we started going back and all of a sudden, this
thing comes out of the bush and it's about seven feet tall. It's dark.
It's it's kind of almost black, dark brown, like almost black.
And I said, there she is. And it's probably about one hundred and
fifty yards away from us. And I stopped the truck and I went to
open the door to get the scope on it. Okay, well, it
turned around sideways and it took one step and it was in the bush.
It walked across the road into the bush, and I said, you stay
here. And I ran up to the spot where it went into the bush,
and I started going into the bush after it with the rifle. And
I got about thirty feet into the bush and something didn't feel right. It
didn't feel right. I stopped. I got a little bit of a little
bit afraid. Actually I was a little bit afraid, and I said,
you know what, I said, I better go back out there and see
look at the track that it left to make sure that was a moose,
I said, because I didn't see a backside of that moose when it turned
sideways, I didn't see the backside of it. It turned sideways and there
was nothing. There was no back end to it. So I said,
I better go make sure that that I'm pursuing a moose here, because something
doesn't feel right. So I went back out to the road and I looked
in the sand and there was no track. There was no track. It
was all this thing crossed where it wasn't sand. It was like an old
creek bed. And the whole road was mostly sand. But this one particular
spot where this thing crossed, it was like rock, like loose rock,
like an old creek bed. And I said, isn't that weird? I
said, if that was a moose, the points of the hoofs would have
left an indent there. I said, that is this is something's not right
here. I said, I didn't see a backside to that thing, and
it seemed a little bit dark to be a moose. I said, I'm
going to call her up here, tell her to drive the truck up here,
and ask her what she saw. So I waved her over. I
was a little bit embarrassed because I didn't keep pursuing that thing. Into the
bush. I kind of got a little bit nervous. I was a little
embarrassed by that. I waved her up with the truck, and she came
up with the truck. She drove about one hundred and fifty yards to where
I was standing, and I stopped her and I said, come out of
the truck. Did she come out of the truck? I said, look
at the ground here. I said, do you see anything? And she
said no, I don't see anything. I said, what did you see?
She goes, I don't know. I said when that thing turned,
did you see a backside to it like the back end of a moose?
Did you see that? She said no, I didn't see a back end
of it. I said, but you did see a turn right. She
goes, yeah, it turned. I said you didn't see a back end.
He said no. I said, neither did I. I didn't see
a back end either. I said what color did you see? He goes,
it was almost black? Dark brown, almost black. I said that's
what I saw too. I said that thing didn't move like a moose either,
did it. She goes, no, it didn't. It was much
more fluid. It moved like weird. I said, well, do you
think a bear could be walking on two legs? You think that's what we
saw? And she goes, I don't know. I said, well,
would a bear have gotten down on all fours and ran away when it stepped
into the bush. He goes, I think it would have. I said
me too. I said, that doesn't any sense. This thing was on
two legs, and it turned sideways and took one step and it cleared the
road. So we were very confused by that, but I was I said,
I'm not going in after that thing, whatever that was. I said,
I'm not going in after that. That doesn't make any sense, I
said, you know. But again, we didn't think about bigfoot. We
didn't know anything about sasquatch at the time. We just thought, you know,
that that was fake. I didn't put the pieces together yet at that
time. So I said, well, I said, we should probably just
get out of here and go back to town because something doesn't add up here.
So we packed up our stuff and we got out of there, and
we really didn't talk about it anymore. You just said, well, you
know, but there's something not right there. But you see the way that
it seemed to be stalking us at one point when we were on the ground
and the way it came out and turned, and it was just very peculiarly
the whole the whole afternoon, and after we realized, you know, years
later, when I heard the Sasquatch audio and some of the reports and I
found the BFRO some of the reports were from that very same area where people
had seen sasquatches. So on the way out of the reserve, I looked
and I noticed that the indigenous people that lived there, they had set up
these total polls on the outside of the village, and it kind of gave
me a little bit of a creepy feeling, like, you know, these
people they might know something, you know, and maybe that's to keep that
minator that they're talking about. Maybe that's to keep that thing out of the
village, you know. But I in hindsight, I don't think that they
saw a minotaur. I think they made that up. I think that they
know the sasquatch lives there. I think they live alongside it, and I
don't think they like to tell people because they don't want any unwanted attention.
They don't want people going there and trying to pursue this thing. As because
it could make it angry. Then they could be in danger when they go
hunting or fishing and they go into the wilderness. If they make this thing
bad and people start pursuing it, it could change the relationship. So I
think they say things. They're very secretive about it, and they don't like
to talk about it. They warn people don't go back there at night,
this type of thing, right, They I to keep people out of there,
And in fact, I was warned by my father in law one night.
I asked him, I said, where does that road there go to?
And he said, well, that road there goes to Ghost Mountain.
Then he looked at me. He says, you don't want to go back
there at night? And I said, oh no, I said why,
He just looked at me very peculiar. He said, I just trust me.
He goes, you don't want to go back there at night. So
he didn't even really want to tell me anything about it for some reason.
So I think I'm pretty sure that that day what we saw was not a
bear, and it was not a moose for sure, And I think that
that's what made my girlfriend feel very uneasy, and it made me feel very
uneasy. And there is an aura about these things. When you get close
to them, you get very scared. Well, I'm not very usually scared
when I'm carrying at thirty odd six in my hand, but in this case,
I was scared. And we decided not to pursue the animal or what
we said saw because we couldn't make sense of it, and we just decided
to get out of there. And you know, like I said, years
later, I started connecting the dots and I've since then, I've I've reached
out to some people that I know who live on that reserve and I've asked
them. I said, listen, I said, have you seen anything weird
on that reserve? What have you seen back there? We're kind of curious
because we had a weird encounter there, and they don't seem to want to
talk about it. And these are people that my girlfriend, she's related to.
They don't really want to talk about it, they don't want to draw
attention to it. But I'm one hundred percent sure that they know all about
it, and they're well aware, and we're pretty much well aware of it
now because of what we saw. And you know, I'd like to go
back up there this year, back to where I saw those lights, to
see if I could see them again, to see if I can catch a
sasquatch, you know, screaming in the area, because I'm sure there's more
than one, and you know, I'm a big believer in it now,
you know, after reading some of the reports and hearing the audio, I'm
one hundred percent sure that that's what I was hearing and that's what I saw
on these two separate occasions, So be aware. I've noticed that a lot
of reports say that they're nocturnal. I know that, which makes them very
tricky to find. They're very intelligent, they can outwit you, and they're
expert hunters. They're very strong, and they're temperamental. They target moose,
and these are the things I've come to learn, and I strongly believe that
Ontario's got a small population of them up. So those are my big Foot
encounters as an experience. Woods. Well, that's it for tonight show.
If you've had a big foot siding and would like to be a guest,
please go to my bigfootsiding dot com and let us know. Thanks for listening.
Have a great night seeing a bunch of run down New Horse towns where
