Almost 45 years after the incident, a witness details a campout during the summer in Central Iowa in which two friends encounter a Bigfoot roaming their campsite.
"Thanks for reading my email. I grew up in the country, in Central Iowa (Marshall County), and where we lived houses were literally a mile apart. It was mostly farmland with lots of large wooded areas.
One summer a schoolmate friend and I went camping at a local reservoir. I think we were only maybe 12 or 13 years old (before high school). This was back in the 70s so I don’t remember exactly, but what I do remember was that the campground we stayed at was very isolated around this huge reservoir. But there were park rangers around so we never felt like the area was unsafe.
But the first night, about 2:00 in the morning, we heard someone walking around outside. We were both terrified because it was big - not like a raccoon or possum. We were both frozen with fear.
After about 10 minutes of not hearing anything, and assuming whatever it was left, my friend got his flashlight and slowly unzipped the tent closure - as quietly as possible. When he turned on his flashlight there was what we could only describe as a Bigfoot about 30 feet away just staring at us. It slowly backed up and walked away. We never heard anything else walking around that night so it left. We were so scared and we had no car and they didn’t have cell phones back then so we had to endure the rest of the night.
When our parents picked us up the next day we were so glad to get the heck out of there. And back then, we didn’t know anything about Bigfoot - it wasn’t talked about - at least not where we were." E
