First-hand Oregon Bigfoot #882

Deer hunters heard loud, low vocalization

3 October 2004 early morning Oakridge, Lane County, Oregon 2 witnesses

Account

The witness and a companion were deer hunting during rifle season and briefly separated in the woods. While waiting alone, the witness heard a very strange deep sound lasting many seconds, then heard it again sounding closer. Frightened, the witness rejoined the companion, who confirmed also hearing it, and both agreed it matched no known animal or human they knew.
