A late-night drive through Northern California leads into something unforgettable.

In this episode of Bigfoot Society, a retired California Department of Corrections employee describes what happened while traveling Highway 199 through Del Norte County, near the Smith River corridor, just south of the Oregon border. The road winds through steep canyon walls and tight curves, a place where visibility is limited and the forest feels close on all sides.

The witness recalls observing a large upright figure moving along the roadside, with enough time to notice how it walked, how it carried itself, and how it filled the space around it. The encounter stayed with him, and over the years he began recognizing how often the same stretch of road appears in other reports.

The episode expands outward into surrounding regions, including Bluff Creek, Willow Creek, Brookings, Oregon, Curry County, and the Trinity Alps. Hunters, truck drivers, and longtime residents share accounts tied to these locations, involving tracks in fresh snow, missing game, nighttime activity, and unexpected encounters deep in familiar terrain.

This conversation focuses on firsthand experiences and the places where they occur, forming a quiet pattern across Northern California and Southern Oregon.

Listeners interested in detailed eyewitness testimony and recurring locations will find this episode worth hearing in full.
