From the Rogue River to Navajo Nation: Real Bigfoot Encounters Across America

0:00 You're listening to BIGFA Society, and I'm Jeremiah Byron. In this show, we go beyond the campfire stories to bring you first hand encounters from people who say they've seen something impossible. From backwoods trails and remote mountain haulers to quiet farms and crowded highways. The stories come from everywhere, and each one leaves us with more questions than answers. These are the voices of the people who've lived it. To settle in, because today you'll hear another account that just might change the way you see the woods forever. So stay with us. Hey, David, how's it going going great? How are you hey? Doing well? I feel free to share what you got going on. Man. Last month I took a road trip up the Oregon coast and I stopped in a little town called gold Beach, Organ in southern Oregon. Yes, the Rogue River runs through there and empties out in the ocean. I would say around dusk.

0:56 The date was. It was January. It's probably end of November. It was at dusk, and I was on this road called the Agnes Road that runs alongside the Rogue River east and west, and the further east you take it the further it goes into kind of wilderness. And I was I was driving. It was probably about thirty minutes from Gold Beach, and as I was driving back at dusk, I saw a figure. Walk across the road. And into the forest, and I thought, maybe there's a house there. I thought it could be a person because it was certainly walking. And then I sped up and I was like, okay, maybe there's a house. So somebody's out getting the mail, like why is somebody walking on the road, And I get up and it's nothing but trees.

1:50 So I don't know. I think I saw something. I was by myself, so I wish I had somebody to verify it. But I. Swore I saw something big walk across the road, and very possible it could have been some kind of creature because I was pretty far from town and it was a walking. Thing to leg it. So that was my experience, and you know, so, yeah, that's what I saw about a month ago. Wow, a month ago. That is fantastic, David, Thank you so much. I've always wanted. I don't get many sighting reports from this area of Oregon because everyone's like very tight lip down there. For some reason, and so it's extremely unique to hear. I know, Gold Beach has stuff going on and the Rogue River, So thank you so much.

2:42 Have you ever seen anything that comes close to the size of what you saw that day to be able to compare it. To No, No, I spent a lot of time in nature and stuff, but no, that was the first kind of abnormal sighting. And I do nature videos. If you go to my channel, I have a lot of great, high quality I have a Canon R ten with a Sigma five Miller lens. I'm out there doing nature stuff and that really kind of shook me. When I got into town, I mentioned it to a couple of people and they kind. Of laughed it off, but I didn't, you know. I wish I had somebody there with me to be like, yeah, we saw something, because when you see it by yourself, sometimes you're like, did I just see that?

3:26 Was that real? You know? But you know, I follow your page and I follow this stuff because I believe it. I was an Olympic National Park last summer up in Washington, and I swear I heard something, and I even recorded it on my phone of these kind of like howls that I've never heard before, and it was pretty deep in the Olympics, so you know, I think it's possible. So yeah, that's that's been my experience so far. Wow. Can you share what part of the Olympics you were in when that you heard that? I was in the southern part of the park. There's a lake there that you can go into the southern interest, not by Port Angeles, but there's a southern entrance and I was just on a road going deep and I pulled over to do a hike and take some pictures, and I just heard these like insane howls unlike anything, you know, maybe like an elk, but I don't even think it was that because it was so powerful you could hear it so far away that.

4:34 Yeah, it was. It definitely got me, you know, researching the stuff and been into it for several years now. Was that a lake Quanal? Yes? Correct, Okay, yeah, I figured that would be a good guess. I've taken a ton of reports from that lake, everything from like road road crossings, visuals and people getting like telepath telepathic mess in the same area, like a lot of really really weird stuff in that It's very very active. So that's awesome. Man, very active. I want to go in back if you have a few minutes going back to the Oregon citing, you know, being a photographer or you know someone who has a really good eye for detail. Do you remember any specific things about what you saw as it as it crossed the road there?

5:28 No, it was right beyond my headlights, my tail lights, so all I all I saw was like a shadow figure very quickly and very swiftly move across the road. And when I first saw it, I thought, man, somebody out there checking the mail, Like, why is somebody on the road out here in the middle of nowhere? And then when I I sped up and I got to this and when I got to where it was, it was just you know, nothing but trees, and it disappeared in the forest. So there's no way it could have been like a person. I mean, I don't know who would be out there like doing that. You know it was on the Adnes Road on Roague River. You can check it out.

6:09 Awesome. Well, hey man, I appreciate you coming up and that's that's a new area to put on the map. So thank you so much for sharing what you experienced that day. No problem, Thanks for having me on, oh, roy, how's it going? Okay? Good? Well? I came back with my friends and my niece lives a little waist and when I came inside, I looked out the window and I seen something over the cliff, and then I went outside. I told my wife, let's christ see what is it. My niece came over and she goes, did you guys see that there's something over there with red eyes? Then I told my wife, yeah, see, I'm the only one that saw it. So she called her uncle and myself we went. She had had a baseball bat and I had a summarize sword, and we both went over there and we saw it, and we got scared and we came back. Then four officers came.

7:11 That old nation police officer came and they saw it too. They came four times, and there was a female lieutenant and she saw bigfoot. She got scared, and I asked the other lieutenant, how come that female officer has a comeback? She went to a different call. I said, no, she did it. She saw bigfoot. She got scared, and they said the only way they can shoot it was to lift the fishing game warden shoot it. But the fishing game warden wasn't around, so the officer just parked right there and we could have been they killed do nothing. So when I fell down, my new shirt that I bought his caterpillar. It's black and yellow. So in the morning, when I went over there to go pick it up, well, when I took it off, I snatched up like the newspaper and I dropped it on the ground. The next day, I wanted a way to to go pick it up.

8:07 Before I picked it up, I got my phone and I took pictures all the way around before picking it up, and then I got my shirt and then I looked at my phone at my pictures. I swear to God when I seen the pictures that I took, I've seen a devil horns, red eyes, and I showed my mom and we got scared. And then I went to medicine man and that medicine man did a prayer for me and he told me delete the picture that I have on my phone. So that's what I did.

8:49 Okay, yep, Wow, that's extremely intenser. So yeah, I told my niece that she was seven years at that time and she sawid and when I'd seen it and know about maybe ten feet away at me. My cousin saw it, and we just froze and we got scared. We were just scared and I can't I didn't see anything like it.

9:29 What what year was this? Two thousand and ten. Twenty Okay, and this happened you said in the Navajo Nation? Yes, do you mind sharing if it was in a certain area of the Navajo Nation. By the Salwan River, same river. I'm not overly familiar with the area. Is that by anywhere else? Do you know where Farmington, New Mexico is at? Yes?

10:10 I let me look real quick, Farmington, New Mexico. Oh, yes, right on the it's kind of it's east of ship Rock. Right, yes, yeah, this way there's ship Rock. Yep. I've gotten reports from ship Rock, so not surprising at all. And yeah, okay, very cool, very cool. You were saying that fishing game have the ability to take one out if they need to. Yes, well, if it's if it's in danger, you know, I mean, if they're dangering to humans. Well that's what the police officer said. They could shoot only the fishing game awarden.

10:56 Okay, yeah, okay, gotcha. Do you know if that's actually happened from what you know, no, Okay, they just have the ability to do so. Yeah. Wow, wow, wow wow. There's so many stories from the Navajo Nation that are just incredible. What would you say if you can share? What do you think is the most interesting account that you've heard over the years that has happened on the Navajo Nation. Killing some livestocks like sheep, just killing them, not eating them, taking their organs and out of their body and breaking their neck and just leave them there.

11:51 Yeah, I do. I hear that a lot actually from different people that that happens. Yes, I have. I've heard that quite a bit. I'm trying to think of specific areas. I don't have specific areas. Maybe Chessca mountains over the years. Yeah, there's some really interesting stuff that happens in that mountain range. Yeah, I appreciate you coming up, sir. Thank you so much for sharing what you experienced back then. Okay, to appreciate it. Thank you. Hey, Melissa, how are you? I'm doing great?

12:31 I'm doing great, awesome, Hey, real quick, I want to make sure you're up to share a big foot experience. Absolutely absolutely, Basically my nd counter was very peaceful and in fact, the two of them I had were very peaceful one of them. Me and my ex husband. We were going, I believe, to pick up some bookcases or something in Oregon, And basically it was fourth and July weekend and I think just woken up from a nap and I saw this big black shadow something cross the road by a twelve and a seven.

13:22 I believe was. The intersection, and there was a big red pickup truck with something towed on the back of it goes about or something that was down on all fours, you know, knuckley across the road, and this big red truck was coming towards. I thought, you know, I started screaming, that thing's going to get hit, and my ex husband's like, well, thing, I said, don't you see that shadow going across the road there? I swear it was as big as a bigfoot. Scared me because I didn't want this thing getting hit. You know, I love animals. I'm a big animal person, so you know, I'm like, I don't want that thing being hit. You know, Luckily it crossed before it could get hit. But you know, that part scared me. But the other one was really a very peaceful encounter. My ex husband and I we were in our pickup truck.

14:20 We were going home from something I believe in why Reta, California or something. I don't remember exactly where we were coming from, but we were at mile marker I believe it was one eighty or one eighty three. We were between Happy Camp, California and Fort Goff, California. I remember that very very clearly. And again I just, you know, woken up from a nap and all that, and I looked in my side review mirror and there was this gorgeous, magnificent, beautiful big foot creature just strolling, just strolling, minding his own business, you know, right on the side of the road.

15:08 I watched it. We kind of just knotted at each other, acknowledge each other's presence, and that was it. It was very peaceful, no threat, no harm done to anyone. He was just strolling. And I remember I had this snapshot in my mind. I don't have an image, but I have a snapshot in my mind. I still see him to this day. He was about nine nine and a half feet tall, short, reddish orange I don't know if you want to call this hair or fur. He had, you know, washboard abs and all that. You know, just a regular dude, just strolling on the side of the of the road and minding his business, and I remember looking going, wow, he is absolutely beautiful. What a magnificent creature.

16:13 That's extremely interesting. First, thank you for sharing. And I've been trying to talk to someone about the Happy Camp area for a few years now because I know there's a lot of activity that happens in that area. Correct. Yeah, absolutely, So. Would you say what you saw was completely covered with hair or were there areas of it that were not covered with hair? His chest and abs was skin and not hair. Okay. Do you remember what color? Yeah, sort of a brownish orange color, like reddish brown orange. Okay, like a human would be a redhead. I would consider him a red.

16:58 Head, right, gotcha? You said the hair itself was reddish orange rait? Yes, okay. Were you able to see any features about the face at all? Yeah? He was kind of half human half ape, kind of like what you have pictured as your background, sort of similar to that. Gotcha? What features would you say, we're more human in which were. More ape like, like his eyes, but his nose and his mouth were more ape. Gotcha, that makes sense. Did it have any emotion at all when you saw it.

17:39 No, just peaceful, very very peaceful, just mind in his business, strolling along. You know, the side of the road. And you know, I just watched until he faded us. Sitan, I just read about my thing, and that was that. How many seconds would you say you actually had eyes on it? I want to say probably for a good two to three minutes. Okay, that's a long time. So you've probably seen a lot of like drawings in art.

18:20 Yes, yeah. Is there anything that you wish artists would get right or that they always get wrong? Based on what you saw? Pretty much pretty much everything is wrong. He's not. As big or as bulky as what most would typically say that bigfoot looks like this one was kind of thin, kind of all about medium to build, small to medium build, very thin, thinner than probably I've seen most images of him.

19:14 Sure, have you heard of any other encounters happening in the Happy Camp area? No? But we we had what I swear were baby bigfoots literally dropped off at where our our trailer home at the time was in a park at Happy Camp and they would just run literally you could hear the footsteps. They would just literally run across the top of our trailer and you know, I thought that was kind of cute because, you know, being an auntie and all that, you know, it just kind of, you know, if the Bigfoot moms feel safe dropping their babies off to play at my house, Like, okay, cool?

20:01 Absolutely? Is that the name of a trailer park then in Happy Camp? No? Unfortunately I don't remember the name of it. Okay, no problem. Also, I wanted to ask you some questions about the Oregon account where you had the shadowy figure. Oh that was that was on the line between California and Oregon. Okay, so this is down A twelve? Probably? Hi, way A twelve? I wait A twelve? Okay? Is that by a certain Is that by a certain town? Or is that like you're going down to Eureka through hill?

20:43 Yeah? Probably right around hillt Yeah? Sorry, is it I five? So you're tak an I five down that we're talking about? Yeah, something like that. It was like right around. Hill Okay, interesting near What years did this happen again? Okay? Twenty twenty three for both of them? All right, awesome, Well I appreciate you coming up and thank you for taking some time in your morning to go over what you saw over by, You're very welcome. Yeah, no, I you know, I love bigfoot. How's it good? How you doing? Hey? Doing well? I have no problem with that. I'm actually a retired school teacher. And this is a very quick story. It isn't nothing. And I was kind of on the fence about bigfoot. I know, I list myself to a bigfoot, but I'm actually six', eight so that's one REASON i list myself as a big guy. Bigfoot BUT i saw your. Podcast, man this is pretty. Well you're here on TikTok AND i love it the first Time i've ever seen.

21:44 It but a quick. Story we're coming home from a basketball game late, night my daughter had played college, ball and we're coming to our. House. Now i'm located out Of, Cordon, Indiana, okay and we do have a, forestry probably twenty miles from, us pretty good size. Forestry and, uh and believe it or, not we're driving down the Road i'm almost, home maybe two miles from, home and we actually see a bigfoot run in front of. Us we look at each, other me and my, wife and thought what was? That and it looked like a. Gorilla it was very light, brown though very light brown in. Color the arms were very. Long it almost drug the ground the arms. Did and, UH i would say high, twise it was probably Maybe i'm six.

22:36 EIGHT i don't think it was quite six, eight, THOUGH i don't think it was quite that. Tall we just missed. IT i, mean my wife had to hit the brake and we just just missed. It it ran across the, road and we were, skeptical thinking that what did we see was that a? Bigfoot very, hairy extremely. Hairy Uh, anyways, UH i didn't think anything of. It let it. Go me and my wife still laugh about it to this. Day BUT i was at school AND i taught agriculture and natural. Resources So i'm talking to my class and one of the kids had, said, Well, mill they called me Big. Mill we saw a bigfoot just the other, day we thought it, was asked one of the other.

23:19 Kids and of Course i'm dealing with kids, here AND i, said what you actually thought you saw? One AND i, said what day was? That and he had told, me and it was on the same day that me and my wife had saw. It so NOW i truly believe it was a. Bigfoot because one of the kids had, said, ask you, know Ask. JOHNNY i can't remember the. Names i've been out of school for ten years, now, retired and he, goes, really, really we thought we saw, one believe it or. Not AND i, said where do you see? It and they told, me and it wasn't probably no more than two miles from my. House SO i, thought right then and, there. Unbelievable. Unbelievable it really actually was a bigfoot because me and my wife laughed thinking what would this be at three o'clock in the, morning coming home late night because my daughter played college, ball so, we're you, know we had to travel somewhere and it was late, night and we swore it was a.

24:12 Bigfoot we. Did we, thought, golly we've never seen this. Before but, anyways that's a quick. Story and Again i'm on the fence with. It but we did see, it and it sure it ran across big. Feet the feet were huge on, it the arms were, huge and LIKE i, said when it ran across the, road and it looked more like a large gorilla run across the, road and my wife barely missed. It it did not look at, us it did not turn its head to look at, us but move fairly, FAST i will say, that very, quick But, anyways that's my, story AND i THOUGHT i would tell it and let you. Know it's pretty neat podcast you got here or whatever this, is And i'm going to start following.

24:54 You but Again i'm on the fence with. It but it is. TRUE i don't know WHY i, came haven't caught them, before but it ran right out in front of. Us true. Story SO i just want to make. Sure so that, Area i've taken so many reports from Southern indiana it. Blonkers, yeah if you go to if you go To bigfoot societypodcast dot, COM i have a sighting map there and you can see them. All, okay and you're going to just be blown. Away so what can do you know the specific date this happened or do? Not it had to be around two thousand and, seven two thousand and, Eight it's been years. Ago, Again i've always been on the fence about, it But i've always been interested in the Big foot because me and my wife saw it so.

25:43 Plain as. Day what time of year, again. Uh been it would have been. Wintertime it would have been winter because she'd played, basketball so it would have been winter. TIME i want to, say And i'm guessing at, this BUT i want to, say Like, January february and that time of. Year, uh but, uh we still laugh about it to this. Day we really. Do BUT i will check your that. OUT i didn't realize there was that many in Southern. INDIANA i really. Didn't and Again i'm convinced because the kid had told. Me he, said, no big. Meal really we saw a. Bigfoot we all we all scared to. DEATH i mean it scared us to. Death we saw it and uh and ended UP i ended up asking the other, student did you see? It he, said, yeah we really. Did we thought it was a. Bigfoot we really. Did everybody was laughing about. It but, uh true, story it is true. Story, CRAZY i, know BUT.

26:40 I believe you. That AS i, said Southern indiana is down by The Ohio. River it gets really. Wide for we're not probably twenty miles from the from the. RIVER i did not know. That i'm glad you told me that and educated me on. THAT i had no. Clue absolutely. HATE i appreciate you coming up been sharing. That i'm going to start following. YOU i enjoyed. That that was. Interesting thank. You, hey how's it? Going? Hey pretty? Good feel free to share what you've experienced. So My so the story That i'm going to share with you is not my personal. Experience it's it's my. Mother's and her story has always been, consistent and she doesn't share it a lot because she doesn't want to be viewed as a person who is kind of crazy or anything like, that because she you, know she's in her.

27:36 Eighties but this actually happened back in the early nineties when at one point she lived In, reno and her and my dad and my brothers they used to go up into the hills up In chillicoot and they used to go and cut down snags and get. Firewood and so back in the early, nineties she knew nothing About she knew nothing about, Bigfoot she knew nothing about what these creatures. Were, nothing she never heard about the. Stories. Nothing so during a trip one, afternoon and it was during the fall, season they went and took a trip and up in the hills to get some. Firewood they got their permits from the forestry, departments and they went deep into the, hills but there were still some homes and piles of. Wood and while my dad and my brothers were going and getting their, wood she stayed in the, truck just reading a book and, unknowingly probably about a good maybe thirty forty feet in front of the pick up where she was, inside she noticed this creature in front of the pickup and it was squatted, down and

29:14 she when she looked up at, it she said that it was close enough to where she could see that the wind was blowing its. Hair it was. Orange it looked like a female because the belly she could see the, belly it was very. Large in, fact she said that it almost looked like it was. Pregnant behind the, creature they were just staring at each. Other they stared at each, other she, said for about a good five ten, minutes because she couldn't wrap her brain around what she was looking. At she was in shock what she was trying to determine what she was looking. At but behind this other, creature there was a woodpile that was kind of tall, enough and she could see another creature kind of pacing behind the, woodpile and it was. Black all she could see was just the kind of the top of the.

30:13 Head but it was nervously walking back and forth as though it was trying to capture the attention of the creature that was in front of the, truck and so my mom was just sitting there and just kind of staring at it for a, moment and when she realized that there were two of, them she then started getting really nervous and she got. Scared she started honking the horn of the truck to get my dad and my brother's. Attentions and when they came to the, truck or prior to my brother's coming to the, truck the creature that was in front of the pickups stood, up and she said it was probably a good maybe eight foot it, was she says it was it was a beautiful. Creature she says it was very. Clean she said she could see the fur or the hair just kind of glistening and kind of it was a little bit of there was a little bit of, wind so you could see the hair just kind of flowing in the. Wind it was long. Hair it was fully, covered so there was no skin. Showing but it was definitely she says when she when it stood, up it definitely looked like a

31:43 female because it looked definitely looked like it was. Pregnant then from a, distance she could see my brothers and my father running from a distance because then she started to scream because then she became concerned that the two would turn on my brothers and my. Dad but then they ran. Away the two creatures eventually ran. Away she didn't really see where they. Ran she assumed that they ran into the stand of trees where they were. At but she said that the encounter. Lasted she said she it lasted for about a good maybe ten fifteen. Minutes she says that to this, day to this, day she still sees them in her. Mind my mom's a she's a beautiful, artist and so she has drawn pictures of this creature that she has actually, seen and she has she has actually uh drn pictures of, it and it's very similar to what other pictures have been in or what we have. Seen but WHERE i, live we have A bigfoot museum up in the hills where we, live

33:16 and so she's had some communications With i've taken her to that museum and she's done her. Research and because, again LIKE i, said she never knew about bigfoot when she first encountered, this so you, know over the, years she's done a little bit of research and she, learned of, course What bigfoot was and all the stories and apparently the video and this historic video that took place back in the seventies and all of. That, so but she's pretty adamant That bigfoot, exists and she's talked to several people in her area that that particular, area there has been sightings Of bigfoot in that, area in The Chillicoot mountains up in that. Area SO i just think it's very.

34:16 Fascinating that is an absolutely wild. Story thank you for sharing your mother's. Story so you, said it's called The Chillicoot. Mountains, yeah up In chillicoot up where up on the. Borderline it's kind of like up in the borderline Of nevada And, California. Okay Reno susanville up in that northern up in the northern, area and this was up TOWARDS i would say probably when she first told the. Story it was like in the early. Nineties this was BEFORE i got. Married SO i got married in the early, nineties so it was shortly before that time. Period, so and they were always growing up in the hills up in that.

35:09 Area SO i just want to make SURE i have the right. Area is this are we talking? Like it's so he, says by A reno is it like Where verdi crosses over it up by Where Cold springs it's. All Cold springs is. More Cold springs is more. South so if you go up more, north up towards like it's not quite Towards, susanville but it's definitely if it's it's off The highway eighty up More. North, OKAY i got, YEAH i totally got it, Now, Okay so, yeah yeah that area. Yep i've talked to people Around Lassid National forest there you.

35:57 Go, yeah, yeah So i'm. In the area. Now and then that's just north Of plumus as. Well, yeah the whole. Area, yeah it is. Pretty, crazy all, right that makes total. Sense, wow what's the what's the name of the museum that you guys want To. So it's actually The Bigfoot. Museum it's up in The felton up In felton out Near Santa. Ceas. Yep so that, one unfortunately is no longer. Operating go to the point where he can't do, it you, know he's just too old, now which is. Unfortunate but that's. Cool so you're able to talk To mike about what. Happened, yeah, yeah we were. There we were. There it's been maybe maybe three years, ago maybe two or three years. Ago, yeah but she had a real fascinating conversation with the older guy. There we you, KNOW i had to buy her HER t shirt, there but but, yeah they had some really fascinating artifacts in there and so forth like.

36:59 That so, uh, yeah she she enjoyed her conversation. There but, again you, know she doesn't talk about it very much but about her about her encounters because she doesn't want people to think, that you, know she's a little out. There you, know but my, mom for an eighty year, old very intellectual and very cognizant of what is going on and so but for those of us that she does talk, to her story has always been very, consistent has never, changed and so forth like. That so, THERE i. DO i do feel that there is validity to her, story and it's always just fascinating to hear her tell.

37:45 It that's. Wild if, man if she, EVER i, MEAN i know she's she's up towards, eighties BUT i would love to talk to her one, day if if she ever wants to have it it recorded for you, know so it's there for you guys for the. Future even you, know it's an open invitation you can send me an email big For society at gmail dot. Com BUT i, mean what a what a fascinating, Story Like i've never heard anyone that has had a sighting like. That, yeah that's. Wild. Yeah, yeah Well I'm i'm following your page. Now I've i've never really been a bigfoot you know, person but the stories are, fascinating you. KNOW I i do find it very. Fascinating and you, know it's it's you never know what's you never know what's going on, on you, know in the wilderness and so forth like.

38:43 That so, absolutely, yeah good, Stuff thank you for for coming. Up, yeah thank. You he's Going. Leviticus good to see you. Here So i'm a preferend by, saying, uh SO i grew up on the. River you, know we hunted the river and everything quite a bit AS i was WHEN i was. Young and ALSO i, MEAN i, KNOW i know what things sound like, basically and so we were Cat it was, me my father and a couple of our. Friends we were kayaking down the stretch of the. River we put in it and it was one o'clock at.

39:29 Night that's when we first put. In and so we we uh we put in and all and we were we were just, chatting messing, around and my, buddy uh we called, HIM i called him an, uncle but uh he lets off a little, hoot like a like what they did on finding a big put or. Whatever we're just messing, around you, know talking. Up you, Know i'm not want to calm. Down it's gonna come and get, you you, know just just just cutting. It but and then you, know after a while we're still sitting there and we start on our. Way we're here a big splash in the water and it it it sounded, died but it sounded like a, rock like a big rock in the. Water and then you, know and we read.

40:23 It we re wrote it off as a beaver's tail splashing the, water even though it didn't sound like. It we just kind of that's what we tried writing it off as. Right and then so well we we as we were paddling, down and as we kept you, know paddling, it the rocks just kept. Coming so and it's like these weren't just you, know small rocks being. Grown these are decent sized rocks to make a good size thud when it hits the water and on the side of the river that it was coming. From it's it's knowing to be really. Thick. Uh there's no trails or anything cut on that side of the, river and even if someone was through, there you'd bed you, know they couldn't get through it with a. Flashlights and there was no flash lights nothing that were that were on that side or anywhere around. Us and LIKE i, said IT'S i, mean it's pitch. Black it's one o'clock in the, morning SO i mean you'd see a flashlight if it was you.

41:33 Know and. Uh but, Yeah so they followed us with the rocks and all all the way down and there's quite a few creeks that's, uh that's down through, there and creeks and slews and, all AND i think the widest one would be twenty twenty five, foot you, KNOW i, mean, nothing nothing that'd be easy to get. Across and but we didn't hear anything cross down and, it you, know it kept following. Us so it went on for about eight to ten, miles and it WAS i, mean we're in the river, kayaking and you, know it kept up with. Us and LIKE i, said being on the river growing, up you get used to hearing things and you can kind of pinpoint what it. Is and that's the only THING i could. Say it was was. Rocks AND i mean my uncle he shined the the river bank and there was you, know you didn't see. Anything you didn't see anything walking down the river bank or. Nothing but so it was kind of like the rocks are being thrown from the woods and there's at some places there's about a twenty twenty five foot gap from the from the woods to the to the bank of the. River but, yeah it just kept following us about ten miles and you, KNOW i mean we're moving just about on this water BECAUSE i, MEAN i don't know if you've ever been in kayaking or, whatever but you, know once you get going, downstream you kind of pick up a little bit of,

43:04 speed even if you just sitting there. Floating but, yeah it kept up with us pretty. Easy could you share what area this is? In what's, Up? Charlie that's one of my. Uncles but uh, yeah So i'm we're right on The Alabama georgia line In West, Point. Okay and SO i GOT i, MEAN i got some baddies with some stories that, are you, know relatively the same. Background spend a lot of time in the woods and, all and now he's he's seen whatever it, was it's coming around dust dark and he was in a tree stand and something started messing with. Him but the only other TIME i had an incident THAT i was, LIKE i couldn't you know place on what it was WAS i was driving down the road at night and uh ABOUT i say ten miles from ten to fifteen miles and initials spot my, granted that was WHEN i. Was the river incident happened WHEN i was i'd say around, thirteen and so this next incident happened WHEN i was, seventeen seventeen. EIGHTEEN i, went all, RIGHT i was driving down the road in like pitch, black you, know And i'm on the. ROAD i, Mean i'm the only one on the, road AND i come across.
