Camper at a remote site hears nocturnal rummaging, bad egg smell: thinks it was bigfoot
Account
The witness and a companion camped alone in a remote, small campground. Late at night the witness was awakened by a loud rummaging-like noise and movement, along with a thick, harsh rotten-egg odor. The witness first thought it might be a bear but felt unusually creeped out and scared. After later reading reports, the witness concluded the visitor rummaging through their belongings had been a Bigfoot.
