Camper Awakens and Sees Two Creatures in the Laurel Snow Pocket Wilderness

The witness was sleeping alone in a tent on the Cumberland Plateau when he awoke with a feeling that someone was approaching. He saw two tall, very wide-shouldered bipedal silhouettes stopped at the top of the trail to his campsite, with the second moving left as if to flank him. He found his handgun and flashlight and shone it toward the trail, but the figures were gone. He stayed in the tent, later concluded they were Bigfoot, and left the area that morning.

The Database of Unexplained Encounters. Claims are recorded as claims: the Anomadex catalogues what people reported, where it was reported, and how sure I am that it was read correctly. It does not rule on what they saw.

A quick ask from the person behind the Anomadex: if you allow analytics, Google Analytics shows me which places, phenomena and searches you're most curious about. That tells me which regions and sources to add next and what to make easier to find. It never sees your name or anything you send me, and nothing is set unless you say yes. Privacy
