Account
The witness was outside on a companion's cabin porch at night when both heard strange howling sounds lasting a few minutes. The companion calmly attributed the sounds to bigfoot, said similar sounds had been heard many times before, and reassured the witness they would not cause harm. The witness was unsettled enough to want to go back inside.
