Odor in Idaho (2000)

summer of two thousand Idaho 5 witnesses

Account

The witness led a group of three adults and two children cross-country toward a remote lake. In a valley floor they smelled strong rancid rot and found about three hundred green trees stripped of bark all around, twelve to fourteen feet up and weeping pitch. The group could not explain the cause and continued their trip.
