A fascinating story has come to light, shared by a viewer named Amy, about her grandson's encounter with what could be described as a "gorilla man" in the forest. Amy and her husband, who reside in Oregon, purchased 20 acres of property in the Cascade Range in 1985, near the town of Trail, Oregon. The property, adjacent to the Alqua National Forest, featured the Rogue River running through it and was home to a variety of wildlife. Amy's daughter, who was going through a divorce, had two children, one of whom was a 5-year-old autistic boy named Sage. The family planned to fix up an old two-story home on the property for Sage and his mother to live in. Amy often brought Sage to the property after school while she worked on painting the interior of the house. One day, while Amy was painting and Sage was outside watching birds, she heard him talking to someone. Assuming he was talking to the birds, she paid it no mind. However, when Sage came inside and mentioned the "gorilla man" who lived in the forest, Amy became intrigued. Sage described the gorilla man as a large, hairy creature who had eaten the sandwich he had left out for him. Over the next few days, Sage continued to mention the gorilla man and even brought him apples. Amy's husband, who was working on the property, decided to keep an eye on the situation to ensure Sage's safety. However, they never saw anything out of the ordinary. One day, Sage came inside looking upset because he hadn't seen his friend in a few days. He had even made a drawing of the gorilla man, which Amy found to be endearing, rather than threatening. While the family never saw any evidence of the gorilla man, Sage's continued mention of him has left them wondering if there is something out there in the forest. You can watch the full video on the Base Camp Chris YouTube channel and decide for yourself if Sage's story is fact or fiction. Either way, it's an intriguing tale that adds to the mystery and allure of the forests and the creatures that may reside within them.
