First-hand Oregon Bigfoot #780

Campers hear vocalizations

Oregon Bigfoot date: october, 1978? late afternoon Reinersville, Noble County, Ohio 3 witnesses

Account

The witness was squirrel hunting with two companions in a remote hardwood forest reached by 4WD trail and boat. Throughout the evening they repeatedly heard a loud tuba-like blast at 15 to 30 minute intervals that seemed to move around but stay out of sight. After returning to a campground across the lake, they heard the same sound from across the water at intervals all night until before daylight.
