A Yurok man and his cousin were on a month and a half long timber job in northern California. During that time, the experiencer describes a remarkable encounter with a group of Bigfoot.

I recently received the following account:

“A family of Bigfoot came and visited me while I was camped out for work about 30 miles from the nearest town in Northern California. It was about 8 years ago.

My older cousin and I fall timber for a living and are both from the Yurok tribe. We had been given a job in Maple Creek, California which is a ways out in the sticks. There is a 17,000 acre ranch that’s behind a locked gate that we were given access to. The job was about a month and half. It was around 900,000 board feet of logs.

Anyway, my cousin had brought his camper and I was tenting it a little ways from his camper around 40 foot away. So, throughout the week, he would go home; come to work Monday, stay the night until Tuesday, then go home and come back Wednesday and stay until Thursday, come to work Friday and drive back. I did that for a little while, but I had been going through a horrible break up with my ex-baby mom so I decided to just stay out there through the week.

One night I had got done cooking dinner on the fire and had washed up. I then laid down in my tent reading. I dosed off for a while and awoke late (I don’t know the exact time but it was pitch black). As I looked out my tent, I could see outlines. You know the kind of dark that comes in the middle of nowhere; no street lights, no nothing, just some stars.

Anyways, I had to relieve myself, so I got up, unzipped my tent and took several steps from the entrance of my tent. While I'm standing there scanning all around me and I look over toward his trailer and crouched down behind the two propane tanks in front of the trailer there are to huge shoulders and a head with no neck. The eyes glowed greenish. Now, at this point I was frozen with fear. I had heard stories and knew that Bigfoot where relatively nice around these parts. But considering what I was doing out there I didn’t know if they would be so kind to me. I turned around, climbed back In my tent and laid down.

At this point it got weird. Small rocks and sticks were being thrown at the side of my tent. I was absolutely sh*tting myself. It was intense and I didn’t know what would happen. So I’m shaking and not moving. Totally petrified. Then the small trickling creek that we had set a water line in a week before started to get louder and louder almost to the point of a giant waterfall. Then the strangest most gentle voice came into my mind and told me everything was fine and I wouldn’t be harmed. They were just passing through and I would calm down in a minute. Then I heard a huge smack from a limb off a tree down towards where I had been working about a thousand foot away. The voice continued to tell me everything was fine and to go back to sleep, which I did.
