Class B First-hand BFRO #43889

Hunter has unnerving experience at Bear Den Lake NE of Gaylord

15 November 2012 dusk, 5:30 p.m. Canada Creek Ranch, Montmorency County, Michigan 1 witness

Account

The witness was parked by a vehicle at dusk after a day of hunting, waiting for two companions to return. After putting a rifle in the vehicle, the witness heard footsteps and then an extremely loud, deep guttural roar close enough to feel in the chest and fled by vehicle to meet the companions at a local establishment. The companions said they had heard strange noises and felt uneasy all day, and the group left the area that night.
