In a chilling account of an encounter with the elusive and mysterious, the YouTube channel Bigfoot Society shares the story of two men from the Pacific Northwest who had a close encounter with something they couldn't explain. The video, titled "In Pursuit of the Elusive: Bigfoot Encounters & Missing Persons," features Tanner Hoskins and Kelly from Pacific Northwest Bigfoot Search. Tanner, a native Oregonian with a background in private security and investigations, is currently studying for a degree in conservation and forestry. Kelly, originally from Montana, spent six years in the Infantry and has a deep love for the outdoors. The two men recount a harrowing experience Kelly had on June 18, 2020, while camping with his boys and their cousin at Forlorn Lakes, situated between Mount Adams and Mount St. Helens. According to Kelly, the group heard a "guttural washboard" sound coming from a dry creek bed near their campsite. The sound was so loud and startling that it woke Kelly up immediately. Following the strange sound, Kelly heard footsteps right next to his tent, within five to ten feet of where he was sleeping. He knew exactly what was going on and was understandably alarmed. The footsteps continued on, and Kelly estimates that whatever it was moved down the creek bed about 100 feet in just a few seconds. Kelly describes the feeling of the creature walking past his tent, and how he could hear the huckleberry bushes brush up against its legs as it moved. He immediately called out for his friend Mike, who was also camping with the group. Mike, however, didn't hear anything and Kelly was left to face the unknown on his own. Despite his fear, Kelly didn't wrap his hand around the shotgun he had with him, a bizarre reaction for someone who spent six years in the Infantry. The next morning, Kelly told the group about his encounter and expressed his belief that there were at least two of these creatures in the area. Mike, who didn't hear anything the night before, told Kelly that he believed him. Throughout the video, Tanner and Kelly share their passion for the outdoors and their love for the Pacific Northwest. They also discuss the topic of missing persons in the area, and how it may be connected to the presence of Bigfoot. As Bigfoot researchers and enthusiasts, it's always fascinating to hear firsthand accounts of encounters with the elusive creature. The story Kelly shares in this video is both terrifying and intriguing, and it's a reminder of the mystery and wonder that still exists in the world around us.
