A chilling account of a possible Sasquatch encounter has been making the rounds on YouTube. The video, posted by the channel Ex Ranger, features a firsthand account of a woman who came across something truly bizarre during a hunting trip with her husband. The woman, who remains unnamed, was out in the woods near Challenge, California, when she stumbled upon a massive bare footprint in the middle of an old logging road. The print was so large that she initially thought it might be a bear track, but upon closer inspection, she realized that it was unmistakably human-shaped. "It was easily 14 inches long, maybe even pushing 15, and it was wide – seriously wide," she recounts in the video. "I wear a women's size eight boot, which is already bigger than average, and David is a 10 and a half. His boots would look like baby shoes next to this thing." Despite her initial shock and disbelief, the woman had the presence of mind to take some photos of the print and even laid her hunting knife next to it for scale. She then called her husband, who was back at camp, to tell him about her discovery. "I found a footprint – a really big one," she tells him. "I think it's human...it's huge. You need to see this." Her husband, understandably skeptical, asked for more details and directions to her location. When he arrived at the scene, he was just as stunned as his wife. "14 inches barefoot – just one print and no others around," he says in the video. "It's weird...really weird." The couple eventually decided to leave the area, but not before the woman captured one final photo of the print. As they were leaving, they both heard strange noises coming from the woods – rustling leaves and branches snapping, as if something was following them. The video has sparked a flurry of debate and speculation among Bigfoot enthusiasts and researchers. Some believe that the print is definitive proof of the existence of Sasquatch, while others are more skeptical. Regardless of where you stand on the issue, there's no denying that the woman's account is both fascinating and terrifying. Her detailed description of the print and her reactions to it are truly gripping, and the fact that she had the presence of mind to document her discovery is commendable. If you're a Bigfoot believer or simply intrigued by the mystery, be sure to check out the video for yourself. It's a chilling reminder that the woods can still hold many secrets and surprises.
