Turkey hunters have loud bang on camper at night in Colville National Forest
Account
Two companions were sleeping in a truck camper at their turkey hunting camp when a violent bang struck the rear door in the early morning. They turned on lights and searched outside but found no cause, marks, or tracks. The next morning they could not recreate the loudness and noted unusual quiet and lack of animal sign. They speculated an unseen Sasquatch slapped the camper to drive them off.
