A recent video posted on the YouTube channel Bigfoot Society has caught the attention of the Bigfoot community. In the video, a man named Dan shares his encounter with an unidentified force while elk hunting in Idaho. Dan and his father were hunting in the panhandle of Idaho, an area they were not familiar with as they usually hunt in the Frank Church Wilderness. They set up base camp on a Ridge line and began their hunt. According to Dan, the terrain was brutal, heavily wooded and steep. They had not seen any other hunters in the area, and the locals they encountered chuckled and said that no one hunts up on that mountain. On the third day of the hunt, Dan decided to head south by southeast along the Ridge line. He had not seen any game trails or sign of elk in the area, but as he was winding his way down the slope, he came across a game trail. Excited to finally see some sign of animals, Dan followed the trail southeast. As he was walking, he heard five distinct knocks coming from a clearing below him. The knocks were evenly spaced and sounded like they were coming from a large animal. Dan was initially confused and thought that someone was beating on a tree, but as he listened, he heard two more knocks from the same location. He decided to investigate and started making his way down the slope. As he approached the clearing, he saw elk sign and heard another knock. He was now convinced that he was dealing with an animal, but he couldn't identify what kind of animal it was. Dan approached the clearing cautiously and listened for any sounds. He heard nothing, but he could see that the grassy areas below were clear of any animals. He decided to continue his hunt and headed back up the slope. This encounter is intriguing as it suggests that there may be a large, unidentified animal in the area. The knocks that Dan heard were distinct and evenly spaced, which suggests that they were made by a large animal. The fact that Dan heard the knocks repeatedly and in the same location adds to the credibility of his story. The video has sparked a lot of discussion in the Bigfoot community, with many people speculating that Dan may have encountered a Bigfoot. While it's impossible to say for sure, Dan's encounter is certainly worth investigating further.
