Bigfoot Terror in Skamania County!

0:00 Here listening to Big for Society, and I'm Jeremi Byron. Tonight's account is from a former nurse from Oregon living the van life in the forest near Mount Saint Helens. When her tire blew out in a clearcut zone miles from help and deep in Sasquatch territory, the forest drastically changed. This is a story of Kara and what happened to her that day in Sciamania County. So stay with us, all. Right, Big for Society, You've got the privilege of talking to Kara today. Kara is an individual I got connected to over on the TikTok platform. Kara's a former nurse from Oregon who also likes to spend a lot of time out in the woods, van life, all that good stuff.

0:40 But we got connected and I asked her to come on the show after I heard a bit about her account, which is extremely extremely interesting happens out there in Scimania County. So welcome to the show. Kara. How are you doing today? I'm great? Thank you? How are you doing great? Other great day where I'm able to talk to people about their their Bigfoot encounters and make sure that is all documented. So I want to I want to make sure that you have the proper time to share what happened out there by Mount Saint Helen's. So you are welcome to take us back to that time when you had this experience, anything that we would need to know in addition, and I'll let you take it from here.

1:26 Okay, awesome. So it's so strange because it was exactly a year ago today. I had it pop up on my memories today that this occurred like a year ago, exactly today. And I was looking for a campsite out on the south side of Mount Saint Helen. I was trying to get to this area and it was like I thought I could get to it by driving out this logging road through this clear cut. And I started driving out there and it was huge, the big, you know, sharp gravel, and I got a flat tire like I heard it pop. And I was only about a quarter mile off the main road, which was just a forest service road. It was like a forest development road. But I turned around and went back to the forest service road so that I would be near people going by because I didn't have service. And it turned out that I couldn't figure out that I had never changed a tire on this particular vehicle before, and I didn't know that I had to drop the spare tire with a long thing that you stick in through the bumper of the car. So I couldn't figure out how to change the tire, and some rangers came by. They also couldn't figure it out, but they said that they would get a message to my son, who was going to come and help me, so I hoped. So they took off.

2:55 I didn't see any other people really, but while they were there, like right before they left, I started hearing these really weird sounds that I had never heard before, and I noticed that the ranger noticed it too. It sounded like, ah, like it still makes me feel anxious to even talk about it, and I will not like make this sound if I'm in the woods because it's still as scary to me. But but anyway, it sounded like a gorilla kind of like barking or roaring, like a like an animal with a huge lung capacity, making like a deep sort of short guttural sounding bark roar thing, and the ranger looked up the hill at it. The first time I heard it, it was up the hill the ranger looked up the hill and I said, what is that any kind of like like nervously laughed a little bit and looked away and didn't answer me. And then I asked again and he still didn't answer me, and so I didn't ask again. But then they left and I kept hearing it, and at first it was only like every couple times an hour probably, But then I started hearing it and it was only from up the up the hill. But then I started hearing it alternately

4:28 from downhill from me, and still also from uphill, so it was like at least two things were like calling to each other, and the one up the hill was staying where it was, it sounded like, but the one down the hill sounded like it was getting closer. And this continued for hours, and it was super super scary. Like I said, I've never heard anything like this before, and it I've heard elk bugle, I've heard bears, I've heard record I've never heard a cougar in the wild, but I've heard recordings of them. And it sounded more like the size of an animal, like if you've ever heard a bear up close, or like if you've ever been around a big bowl like a big bull cow, you know. It sounded like that kind of huge lung capacity.

5:34 And the one down the hill kept getting closer and closer, and I was so scared, and I tried to like, I'm a very spiritual person, and I sort of like prayed about it, and I was getting that it was like I was I was associated because I'm a person, a human with the clear cut, and they were pissed like about the clear cut, it felt like, but it was kind of felt like it was more like they were definitely protectors of the earth. And they kept getting closer and closer, and it got scarier and scary. I tried to like leave an offering in the clear cut as a peace offering, but that was terrifying because I had to go like kind of far away from my van to do that. And they kept getting closer and closer to the edges of the clear cut. And then, oh my gosh, right after it got dark or the you know, the sun had gone down and it was getting twilight, and they just kept getting closer, and the one down up the hill started coming closer, and then I heard like, I'm I don't know for sure that it was a different one than the one that had been down the hill. But then I heard another one of those noises from my from the side, like it

7:08 would have been they eat the west from the west then, and that tree line was pretty close to me, and I was just too scared, Like I just decided to drive on my flat tire and get out of there. But before I drove out of there, I did feel like they were definitely sending me a message, and it was that like, they don't really The vibe by God is they don't really care about people, like they don't like have They don't have a soft place in their heart for us, you know, because they see how we're hurting the Earth. It's not like the they dislike and inherently, but they don't like what we're doing to the Earth.

8:05 And the message that they were sending is that the Earth needs help and that the Earth will create balance whether we help or not. But the Earth loves humans and wants us to be a team, and so that's why they tolerate us kind of, and why the Bigfoot tolerate us. But they see us as destructive. But but humans are supposed to protect the Earth and we're supposed to be a team with the earth, and the Earth will provide for us if we protect it. But but they were mad about the destruction that was caused by that clear cut, and that's why, you know, more than anything, why they were running me out of there. But it was so scary at the end, like I felt like there they were about to like start throwing stuff at my van and it felt like so I drove about aile away on my flat tire, ruined the tire, but I didn't never hear them again. And it was definitely the scariest experience I've ever had in any location. So that's pretty much what happened.

9:20 I can tell you are and I would be the same way if I was, if I was telling this account, I mean, you are right back there in that time. Emotionally, it's yeah. It was so scary. I like made videos because I didn't have cell service. But I was like, I think that these are what we call bigfoot, and I am scared that they are going to literally written me apart, you know, and they won't care about my phone, and so I want to get a message to my kids, you know, So I like recorded, Oh my gosh, I don't want to get all Okay. So I recorded some videos to my kids where I was like, I love you so much and stuff, you know, because I was truly scared and but yeah, it was intense, but I was really glad they didn't like I was scared they would follow me, or that they would be faster than I because you can't drive very fast when you have a flat tire, you know. But they just wanted me to go away from there. So I think that that area was special to them, or at least I don't know if they were protecting it because of the clear cut or if it was before that a special area to them or what. But it definitely was like they were protecting that area. So anyway, that was wild. It was.

10:50 Yeah, I definitely have a few questions for you. Yeah, so so you get a mile away, your tires ruined, then how did you how did you eventually get out to safety them? So I so I had to wait. I like I said, I I had asked the ranger to like, uh, I gave him my son's phone number and I asked him to notify my son and ask him to come out. And so I knew that my son was going to come out there eventually you know, and I didn't know exactly when, but I just like I I was going to go camping anyway. So I had everything I needed.

11:37 I had water and food and you know, I like everything I need in my van. I was self sustained, like I didn't really need anything. I would have been okay to be out there for like a week or so, you know, and just waiting. And he did end up coming like that next day, like part way through the day, we were unable to figure out the thing, the tire, and so we drove down to where we had reception, and I ended up getting a hold of a person who lived in that closest town that was like about eleven or twelve miles away, and he drove up and oh yeah, that's a cool part of the story too.

12:18 He drove up and so he lived there right his whole life. He's like in his forties. This guy that drove up and changed my tire for me and showed me that like the thing to change my tires under the hood, and I just have to like pop off this rubber thing and then shove it through the back bumper and drop my spear and blah blah blah. So I figured out. Like, by the way, if you ever go out into the woods with no reception, make sure you know how to change the tire on the vehicle you're currently driving. So if I told him what happened, because it was still like super super fresh and scary for me, and he was like, I was like, what do you think that could have been? Because I didn't say I heard a bigfoot, you know, I said, this is what happened, and this is what I heard, And without like skipping a beat for even a second, he was like bigfoot. And he's like, my mom saw one in our backyard like when I was a kid, and he grew up in that area, so they know that.

13:15 I mean, he's he said that he's only had experiences where he heard them, but he's had friends too who like have been run out of places and had stuff thrown at them, and so he wasn't like he was just very clear, not missing a single beat, said it was bigfoot. It's like every single person you talk dudes like, yeah, it's just it's a thing you have to deal with. Yeah, it's wild, absolutely for sure. Yeah, yeah, there's a clear cut out there. I don't know if people should be going there. I'm never going there again, right, That's how I feel about it. I'm not saying don't go there, but I'm just saying, like it might be a scary thing, you know, or you might have weird stuff happen, or like I really truly think that they were about to start throwing big stuff at my van. Yeah, yeah, it felt like it. It was like elevating, and they were like calling to each other more and more frequently and getting closer, and I was like, they're definitely trying to scare me. But I also feel like they're going to keep elevating it until I actually listen, you know, right.

14:23 So, yeah, there's a few questions that I want to ask before I do. I want to make sure you know I'm asking them with respect, But yeah, my listeners are going to be like Gwen's. You ask it so sure. When you're saying that you'd made videos, are those I'm guessing those videos are not available anywhere on the internet or. No, they're like videos that I made on my phone in case I got ripped apart by a bigfoot so that my kids would know what happened, because I thought Bigfoot won't care about my phone, know like it probably doesn't even know what a phone is, so like, it's not I wasn't at all scared it was a person that was going to like steal my stuff or take my phone. I was like, so yeah, they were like videos so that my kids could know that I love them.

15:17 And what happened? What what? What did you leave exactly as an offering there? Oh yeah. So I meditated about that a little bit, and I had a big piece of raw, raw rose quartz, and I also had the only thing that I had that was like a fresh vegetable type thing, was a pepper. And so I went out and there was this one area of the clear cut that was kind of in the middle of the like latter area that's right below the road. It's not really flat, but it's like a little less steep area that's right below the road that sort of felt central or something. And I but it was a stump. I mean, it's a clear cut. They're all stumps and brush piles. And so I went over and put it on, put the rose quartz in the and the pepper on top of that stump, and rose quartz is it. And my intention was to focus healing energy on this spot because rose quartz's properties have to do with healing, so that was my intention. And then the pepper was just like a like, a here's something you might like, I hope think right, but it's probably

16:51 still there maybe unless somebody took it. Yeah. Absolutely, that is so so wild but very interesting. I didn't know about that about rose quartz, just a double check. So you actually had to stay there overnight while you were waiting for the individual to get you or was it you did? Oh man, oh man. Yeah, it was scary. It was super scary. I was like, yeah, I was ready to keep trying to I would have ruined my van to get away from there, you know what I mean, Like, I didn't care that it was going to cost me so much more money at that moment to like, I would have kept going farther if I had to. But I didn't hear them again after I drove. Okay, so yeah, but it was scary. It was really scary. I didn't sleep well the next day.

17:44 I got out of my van to like look at the tire because I didn't even get out of the van that night at all. The next morning, after it was light, I got out of the van to look at the tire. But I didn't even stay out of the van for very long ago I can until my person got there, So so thankfully. I mean we mentioned before you're you're into like the van life movement, so I would get from that that you had the inside of your van decked out for you to be okay if you need to stay overnight. Oh yeah, yeah, I was planning on staying at least at least a week in the area that in the camp in the camp spot I was trying to find out there. So yeah, I was ready to I was ready to be camping. I think I had like twelve gallons of water and plenty of food. You know, you know, everything I own it it currently is in my van, so absolutely, yeah. Yeah, so I had everything I needed.

18:49 That's great, man, that wasn't the thing. Yeah, that's great. Let's see. Oh, during the time when you were out there and you're hearing the sounds all around you, did you hear, sorry, did you smell any weird smells at all? I don't remember that, gotcha. And when you're looking around the forest that's all around you, did you notice any patterns made by trees or tree limbs or branches, anything that stuck out. Sometimes as humans will pick out patterns when we're out in the woods, anything weird like that.

19:47 Right, So I was in the middle of the clear cut. The road that I drove out, it goes like so I was on the south side of Mount Saint Helens and it drop and it goes down like away from the mountain, from the peak of the mountain, and it goes out kind of in the middle of the clear cut area, the swath that's clearcut. It's like a big swath that goes down the mountain. And so it was all like debris piles and stumps. But it was like there. The next day when we went out there, I had to go back up because when I drove away, I drove away from like I had a chair outside of my van that I was sitting in before I got scared, you know, outside like just a fold up camp chair, and I don't remember what else, but I had drove driven away from that stuff when I drove away, And so after we dealt with the tire, we had to go back up there and get it. And my son walked out and walked up there were all these really tall debris piles that were out there in that clear cut, and my son walked out and walked on top of one of those debris piles, and it just felt very red flaggy to me, Like I it felt like maybe I don't know if that debris pile could have been it was the biggest one in the area of the clear cut, and maybe the I don't know, there were other debris piles. It could have been that that was

21:19 a normal debris pile, but it felt weird, and I didn't want my son to be up there. Could have just been because of the trauma of the night before, and I was like, please don't do anything to my baby. While he climbed up there, I'm like, what are you doing. Let's get out of bear right. But but there was like one big debris pile that seemed like it was a little different than the other ones, And then there were there were a few other spots where there were like like a few of the bigger chunk like logs of debris or bigger branches of debris or whatever that were that were tented up, like not totally put in a debris pile, but kind of like tinted up down the hill because I had walked over before I started hearing that stuff. I had walked over to see if I could see anything cool, because like I said, it swales out, kind of gets a little flatter, and then it drops off again by where I was. I walked out to the edge of the drop off and and yeah, it just it seemed a little bit I don't know.

22:34 I don't really know, but it seemed a little bit weird how some of that stuff was definitely. It's it's it's extremely interesting. I do want to throw in because I have a feeling the right people will be listening to this one if you're a ranger and you've experienced something like this, and you would be cool with sharing it because I think it's important to share it. And we can also, you know, do it anonymously as well if you need to, because I know a lot of individuals are kind of scared of losing their jobs. But the invitation is open. If you would like to reach out, you can send me an email. It's big for society at gmail dot com. But wanted to throw that in there real quick as well. Did you happen to get the name of the ranger that you would talk to or just kind of a nameless individual that showed up type deal.

23:31 Well, there there were three rangers that helped, that tried to help me, and I don't remember any of their names. There were two younger, younger men, like they were in their early twenties I would guess, or maybe late teens, and then a younger woman also and I really don't remember their names. He was kind of tall and thin, and he had like brownish hair, brown brownish blonde, kind of curly hair. I don't remember his name. I think he was out of that ranger. They were just like the kind of rangers that drive around and you know, fixed stuff or.

24:12 Whatever, like yeah, no doubt, no. Doubt, recreational. I think they're called recreational. Yeah, okay, very cool, very cool. How did this situation or this this event that you lived through, how did that affect the way that you I guess how you viewed Bigfoot in the past year. Well, I have I have always like had a respect in reverence for it, but I feel like I like I am afraid of it. I hope I never encounter another one. But I also have like a really really deep respect and reverence for it, Like it is if you I was thinking about this earlier. Actually, I'm glad you asked this question. If you think about like the thing or person that you love the most in the in the world, right and just like the amount of like love and tenderness you feel for that person. That was the feeling that I get from Bigfoot about the earth, like it loves the earth like that, you know, and so I like love and respect that about it, you know,

25:47 But I'm terrified of it, Like I really really hope I never encounter another one. So yeah, I'm definitely not going to ever be going on a big Foot hunting expradition. Gotcha. That was kind of the next one. But I was like, yeah, it's going to be a no. I mean, maybe I would maybe go with some other people to like, because they are psyched, they are telepathic at least definitely, and so I would maybe go as a as a communicator to in the right circumstance, not like a ghost hunting vibe type thing like those where they're like we will find you, you know, like, but more is like a respectful peacemaking you know, like what is it called diploma diplomacy kind of thing? Oh yeah, sure, that kind of vibe. I would go with that, but not like the yeah, yeah, anyway, that makes sense.

26:45 Yeah, in the time since that event, have you experienced anything out of the ordinary that has happened. I guess at your at your home where you are located. You mean, like supernatural kind of stuff. What could be considered that kind of thing. I mean, I've seen I've seen UFOs since then, I've seen some orbs, like when I was on the coast, but that I don't feel like. I don't know that that's connected, but it is a weird thing that happened, you know. I do like believe, so I do believe that we have the ability to communicate without in other ways besides just verbally potentially, you know, and I think that some people have to kind of tapped into that. You can feel vibes of things. People talk about that all the time. Whether it's like infra sound from Bigfoot or whether it's like energetic I don't know, but I forgot the question.

28:09 To be honest, you definitely answered it. But then the question was you're experiencing weird things, which is a path Oh yeah, thats always. I always experience. Yeah, I do experience weird things and I do still. What I was going to say is like I do feel like we're all connected all the time, and I feel like I can still tap into that energy if I want to, Like like I feel like there is a thread, there's a connection. And I also feel like I always every ever since then, Oh, this is one thing that's very different. I mean not very very different, because I always have been very respectful. I'm always always leave no trace and very respectful of animals and I never want to destroy their habitat and stuff like that. But ever since then, whenever I go to a place, I ask for permission to be there, like in that physical space in the woods, like is it okay for me to be here? And then I like wait for the answer, you know, and if I get a vibe that I should leave, then I just leave.

29:14 So that is something that's different. Like there are areas where it is preferred that we are not so, and then there are areas where it's okay for us to be as long as we're respectful. So that's that's extremely interesting. And do you think that is communicating directly to the Bigfoot? Again, I think that it's one of the energies that protects the Earth. I think that there are other energies that protect the Earth too, and and they are like when I think that when you ask for like, when you respectfully you know, I also usually will like leave give some kind of offering. Also when I and I leave a place, also as good as I found it are better. But there so when I asked that, I'm asking it of Bigfoot, but I'm also asking it of the other earth protector energies that exist, because some of them are equally scary.

30:19 Yeah, and I would imagine, you know, that's not I'm more well, I'm more versed in the big Foot side, right, That's what I focus on. But are those things that would also be considered cryptids by some groups of people? Probably so the I've heard some heared, I've heard some people talk about them, the things I'm talking about. I mean, I think there's all kinds of cryptids. I do believe that there's all kinds of cryptids. And I think some of them are regional and stuff like that. Some of them maybe are possibly interdimensional or extraterrestrial, you know, in my opinion, this is my this is my guess about it.

31:02 And I think that some of them that I'm talking some of the the energies I was talking about though when I said that are what some people call elementals, and they were always of the earth energy, you know, they're they're from the Earth. They were always of the Earth. Some of them are inner dimensional probably, but they're like that's their whole thing, is their Earth protector energies. And some of them, like do people do call them things other than that that are cryptids, Like I think some of the stuff that I don't really like to say some of the names that people call some of the cryptids because I feel like it even saying the name of it makes me nervous. I don't want to associate with that energy. Yeah, but but yeah, there are some energies out there that are I just think you should always listen to your intuition when you're in the woods, and if if you it's it's never going to steer you wrong. If you get a gut feeling and you follow it, that's never going to steer you wrong. But and I think that we're more sensitive to energy and that kind of information, then we realize sometimes you.

32:22 Know, oh absolutely, did this communication start just after the encounter or was it always there? Do you think. For me? Yeah, uh, with this specific energy or in general just in general. So I know I have. I started when I was a kid. When I was a little kid, I could sort of understand what other people were thinking about. But then I understood that that was a weird thing to do, and so I tried to stop doing that for a long time. And then after I got COVID, I couldn't stop it anymore, and so I just leaned into it. And it's not like I can I'm not saying I can tell what other people are thinking all the time. It's not like that at all.

33:20 It's just more of like a an understanding of some things that aren't or like a being able to communicate or feel some things that other people aren't necessarily open to at this point, because I do feel like everybody has the potential, you know, I do exacuated or if they try. Yeah, absolutely, I do know what you're saying. Another interesting thing that has come up through years of talking to people. I think that there could be a thing where a person will have an encounter or being an area that might be really charged up and it'll kind of maybe unlock something in definitely in a human that could be lost.

34:11 And I feel crazy for even saying that, but it's just a pattern that I've noticed in a lot of interviews that I've taken. And yeah, I think you're right, and I do think, you know now that I'm like sitting in the experience again, I do think that there was a so like I did tap, I begged my guides for help during that moment because I was so scared, you know, and asked for guidance and like, am I in danger? And what's going on? What's this about? All that kind of stuff, And there was something about a portal that they were saying.

34:56 I don't know if it was like related to that specific physical space or if it was being if it's always there, if it was being created right then like that night, if it was going to if it was going to be created that night and it was a special thing that was happening only then, or if it was always there. I don't know, is what I'm trying to say. But there was something about that area being connected to something about a portal, at least at that time. And I do feel like, and like I said, I did, this is very interesting because I have never thought about the stream like this before. But like I said, I did do some kind of magic at that in that circumstance, Like when I placed the offering, I asked for there to be a connection from you know, energies that would help, energies of life that would help for there to be healing in this area, you know, for this earth to be healed, for the injury that was sustained in this area to be corrected as quickly as possible, and for healing energy to like rain down from beings of light or energies of light or whatever would help, right as you do in magic. And so maybe that's why I

36:28 feel like I can still I don't know, I'm speculating, but maybe that's why I feel like I still have like a thread of connection to that specific energy, those energies in that space, you know. Oh yeah, it's one of those things where it is it is interesting to think about and to speculate. There's no solid info, but there is threads of people experiencing the same things, which is always a super weird thing. Yeah. Yeah, I would say, you know, thank you as so much for coming on the show, for trusting this show enough at myself enough to share what you experienced care.

37:19 I really do appreciate it. I would say there are a lot of really good things that people can take away from this one. As you said, know how to know how to change your tire before you go out in the woods. That's a huge deal. Also, what I do is I take and I will have my mapping program downloaded to my phone so I don't need cellular that's another big deal, or even have like a beacon type thing. But I think, yeah, the car tire is one that can get yet. So guys, definitely make sure you know how to change your car tire. You don't want to be lost out there. But thankfully your your account has a happy ending and you've been able to learn a lot over the last year through this. And I just want to make sure also that you were able to share everything that you had wanted to share by coming on the show today.

38:19 Yeah, I mean, I really think, like I really think that this happened. Like I said, it was the most most scared I have ever been. But I really think that this happened because there is a message that that was trying to be communicated, you know, about like about the like about the earth is hurting and angry and rising and waking up and needs our help, and that it's trying to create balance and that you know. So basically that was what they were trying to say. That was like the big that was what they were trying to say. So anyway, absolutely well, if you have every if you ever have any you know, questions that come up or any other things that happen in your life, hopefully you know things calm down. But you're always welcome to reach out.

39:11 You can send me an email. But I just want to say thank you for coming on the show. It's been a pleasure to chatting with you today. Of course I have a beautiful day. Thank you. My name's Kevin. Just you know, want to share what happened to me because I've seen a fellow sharing what happened to him in bear Brook and I mean, you. Know, I can't. I can't even explain to what happened in five minutes. You're gonna have to call me. But basically, I mean, I've been hunting my whole life.

39:51 I'm from New Hampshire, born and raised. I've been in the Great north Woods hunting all the way up to the northern part of the main I mean I've been everywhere seeing a lot of things, and I've never seen a Sasquatch or bigfoot, and I've never had any problems. Never I've hunted in some very remote areas and I've never seen anything or had a problem. But what happened to me. A couple summers ago when we went up to camp was bizarre and it was a little scary, but it was also. It's left me with a lot of questions. I mean, this could the only thing that I can think of in what's gotten me to contact people is basically, you know, this is the only thing it could have probably been was of Sasquatch, you know.

40:41 And I mean I'm not like a full on believer. I'm an open minded person, but I'm also kind of a tight I mean, I don't I'm a hunter, you know, don't. We don't talk about this. I mean, it's just not a thing. So I mean, I've shared this with West from Sasquatch Chronicles, and I've also shared it with a woman her name's Michelle. She's written some books on all this stuff from Maine. Because what happened, I mean, I had so many questions after what happened that I had to reach out, and I had to do a little research to find who Michelle was, but I contacted her explain to her what happened. Come to find out, there's like all these freakin reports of stuff going on right near where I was, which I had no idea about in the first place to begin with, which was a little crazy. And you know, in talking with Wes, he's had so many people with the same thing happen to me.

41:42 So because what happened, I never saw it physically, but I know for a fact that you know. I mean, I know my animals, I've seen them. I've had bears in my camp. I mean nothing, This is nothing that I've ever, ever, ever, ever come into contact with before. And I know that for a fact, even though I didn't see it, I can tell you just from the vocalizations that it made and the sounds that I heard, this was not a human being coming down to play and mess around. Because for one, where I was, if you're gonna mess with anyone, you're gonna get shot and you're never gonna be seen again.

42:26 And it's just how it is. I mean, you're not gonna go way up in northern New Hampshire and mess and go down and mess into someone's camp in the middle of the night, and you're gonna. Someone's gonna shoot you. So and and the the the I can't explain to you, like the noise, the trying to think of a word to describe the loudness or the like the size of the noise. Very hard to explain in five minutes. But it basically ended up coming down right outside of my tent wall, where I had been by this point frozen because I didn't know what I was really here and are dealing with. And when this thing vocalized, it was like that, ain't that Ain't.

43:21 Anything I've ever heard before, So I can't. I tried to reproduce the sound for west, but it's like nothing, nothing will reproduce this sound. It was like a guttural grunting, but it had like a voice to it. It was very bizarre, very bizarre. So if you want to hear more about what happened to me, I'm from New Hampshire. I've hunted my whole life. I like I said, I never believed in any of this, but I am a little open more to it now because of the things that have happened and what I've learned throughout my own personal research, and it's like, you know, I still hunt it. I'm an avid archery hunter. I'm in the woods from September to December. I mean I'm out there every day and I don't see anything. I've never had a problem, but you know, what happened to me up in my camp was definitely I don't know what else it could have been other than a bigfoot.
