A chilling encounter with Bigfoot in a remote lake. A video posted on the YouTube channel Bigfoot Ebooks 1980s has caught the attention of the Bigfoot community. The video, titled "Highway Of Tears Complete Documentary Sasquatch, Bigfoot, Yeti," shares a firsthand account of a father and son who had a close encounter with a Sasquatch while canoeing in a national forest. The video starts with the father and son, Jason Baitman, loading their gear into the truck and setting off on a scenic drive to a remote lake within a national park. The day was perfect for canoeing, with the sun shining through the trees and the lake surface as smooth as glass. They had no expectations of anything unusual happening that day, but that was about to change. As they were canoeing, they noticed that the lake was teaming with fish, so they decided to make the most of it and started fishing. Suddenly, a massive splash shattered the calm, and a large object crashed into the water so close to their canoe that the sudden waves rocked them violently. They both snapped their heads around, scanning the water and the trees, but at first, there was nothing. Jason's heart was hammering in his chest, and his dad's expression changed instantly. He was on high alert, and his reaction alone sent a chill down Jason's spine. They sat there for a few moments, listening, but the forest was still, too still. The usual chorus of birds and rustling leaves had gone eerily silent. Then, without warning, a huge rock came hurtling through the air, splashing into the water right where Jason had been sitting. The creature reveals itself, standing at the edge of the trees, was a massive shadowy figure, its dark fur blending into the dense foliage. It wasn't just tall, it was towering, at least 10 or 12 ft high, with broad shoulders and arms so long they nearly reached its knees. Jason and his dad both whipped their heads toward the shoreline, searching for the source of the rock. That's when they saw it, standing at the edge of the trees, was a massive shadowy figure, its dark fur blending into the dense foliage. It wasn't just tall, it was towering, at least 10 or 12 ft high, with broad shoulders and arms so long they nearly reached its knees. For a moment, it just stood there, staring at them, then it moved with an almost unnatural grace. The creature took a step forward, its powerful muscles shifting beneath its thick coat of reddish-brown fur. Its face was partially obscured by shadow, but Jason could make out deep-set eyes locked onto them with an intensity that sent a chill down his spine. Then it let out a low guttural growl, a sound so deep it vibrated in Jason's chest. Jason wanted to scream, but fear had frozen him in place. Then the creature bent down and picked up another massive rock in its enormous hands. The rock looked no bigger than a baseball, a terrifying escape for a split second. The world seemed to stop, then the creature hurled the rock toward them. It splashed into the water with a force that sent waves crashing against the sides of their canoe. The boat rocked violently, and for a moment, Jason thought they were going to capsize. Jason's dad didn't hesitate. He grabbed their bucket of fish and dumped them back into the lake. The creature's reaction was immediate; it stopped moving, its shoulders relaxed slightly, and the deep growl that had been rumbling in its chest faded. Then, in a sudden burst of movement, it turned and disappeared into the trees, its heavy footfalls shaking the ground as it retreated. They sat there for a long moment, still gripping their paddles, barely breathing. Then Jason's dad said, "We need to go now." They paddled back to shore as fast as they could, their hands trembling on the oars. When they finally reached the dock and returned the canoe, they told the rental worker what had happened. He laughed, but the way his eyes widened for just a second told Jason he knew exactly what they were talking about. Back in the truck, Jason and his dad sat there for a long moment in stunned silence. Then, finally, his dad spoke, "That was Bigfoot." Jason nodded; there was no other explanation for what they had seen. This video is a must-watch for all Bigfoot enthusiasts. It's a firsthand account of an encounter with a Sasquatch, and it's chilling. The way Jason and his dad describe the creature, its movements, and its actions, it's clear that they had a close encounter with something otherworldly. The video serves as a reminder that Bigfoot is still out there, watching, and waiting to be discovered. I encourage all of our readers to watch this video and share their thoughts with us. It's an exciting addition to the Bigfoot community, and it's a reminder of the mystery and wonder that still exists in our world. Excitement Level: 7/10.
