Class B First-hand BFRO #16944

Various sound-only incidents described by hunter near Cripple Creek

November 2002 approx 7am Kearney, Ontario 3 witnesses

Account

The witness waited in a tree stand in a remote northern Ontario hunting area just before daybreak after a period of unnatural quiet and a feeling of being watched. He then heard very loud wood-on-wood knocks exchanged between two locations for about 10 minutes, with one source sounding closer over time. He left for the camper scared, and his two companions later said they had heard the sounds faintly from their distant stands.
