Bigfoot Logging Camp Attack Island Mountain

Linda Louise writes RMSO

The Big Foot attack happened in the Summer of Aug.1971. 

The Logging Show was being run by a Victor Jabloniki.

We had a crew of up 10 Guys, of which my Husband was one of them. i was the Camp Cook at the time. we stayed at the Camp in Island mountain during the week, and would go back to town on weekends for supplies.we were so far back in,it took many hours to make the drive from Laytonville.CA. to the Camp in Island mountain .

 The day before the attack came, I had taken my Husband his lunch where he was cutting Timber. Look at this he told me. There were many small trees ripped out of the ground near where he had cut trees the day before.They would have been about 4 Ft. tall when standing, but were pulled up like Carrots. 

 I've seen Bears go through an area and do strange things he said. But nothing ever like this.We sat down and he ate. The woods were very quiet,and that got our attention.It was too quiet. We then heard foot falls coming our way from up hill. It's all clear my husband called out. I don't have any trees hung up.

 The foot falls stopped, then we heard foot falls going back up the hill. After eating we walked toward where we heard the foot falls coming from. the trails were covered with pine needles ,but we found some very large tracks, bigger than a size 16 shoe ? None of our guys had feet that big. ? My husband was always at home in the woods, but he was spooked. Think I'll knock off for the rest of the day he said. And we picked up Saw and Gas and headed back to camp. 

 We told the Logging boss and crew what happened ,and asked if anyone walked down to Art's timber patch. No,we didn't go near there.My Husband and I slept in the Cook shack.And one of the guys had brought a Dog up with him. everyone had gone to sleep.All quiet and very Dark.We only had lanterns for light up there.the stove was wood,and fridge and Hot water heater ran on portable propane tanks we hauled up with us.so keep in mind,no phones ,no radio,we were very isolated. 

So, I'm awake thinking about what to cook in the morning,and I hear Blackie the chicken dog begin to whine like I've never heard him before. He was on a chain just out side the cook shack. All of a sudden he ran under the cook shack and really began to wimper and whine. I looked at my husband who was sound asleep,looked out the window to the shack where the crews slept.No lights came on.No one was up .next came the sound from up above us on the ridge where the landing was. it sounded like bolder's and trees were being pushed down the ridge.It got louder and closer.No one else is hearing this ? Next came a scream .High shrill,as close as I could describe it was high pitched like a bull Elk in Rut.But there were no Elk anywhere near that area.

 At breakfast the next morning I asked the guys about all the noise over night. They said I must have had a night mare or something. when they reached the Log Landing after Breakfast,well that was a different story.The Cat they were using to drag in the logs had been pushed. And a 55gal. diesel barrel had been picked up and bent over the blade on the Cat.  like a Beer can . Large Foot prints where all over the landing. 

 Vic had to drive to Garberville to make phone calls to report to insurence CO: They sent a man up to take photos. Never did get to see them. One of the crew men was a Modoc Native man. He came back,packed up his gear and left. His name was Larry Leggit. I've never seen a grown man look so shaken up in my life.

 My guess is what ever it was showed it's rage and left the area. I use to wander all over the woods up there until that happened. After that, I kept close to the cook shack. Vic had a son on the crew I think his first name was Alan, There was also a Allan Frost, Art Frost, Mark ?? Larry Leggit, Vics son in law.  Dave , .Ted Frost, and myself at the time this happened. Seems like there was a Pete ,but he  drove Truck More than fell timber.

 This happened almost 50 years ago. However, I will never forget the screams I heard that night, or the rest of everything else that happened. Do I think there is something living in the woods across America. You bet I do. if forest animals can hide in Big Cities,,then any animal can hide and survive in the wilds. Just because you don't see them, does not mean they don't see you. so, here is my story. Take it or leave it. And happy hunting. 🙂

Reminds me of similar reports by loggers being harassed by Bigfoot in North California. Do you recall if any of the men has a sighting leading up to this night of escalation or after?

Linda continues

I do not remember anyone admit they had put their eyes on any creature. As I stated. on the day before this event happened, I took my Husband lunch down into the patch of timber he was felling. as we were eating Lunch, he was talking about feeling eerie, like something had been watching him. and something about some kind of nest he had come across .

 He said he had heard that Bears would sometimes build a nest, but this was different. Almost tee-pee like. I didn't see it. only saw the large tracks on trail down to his patch of timber. The other guys did see the tracks up on the Landing, as well as damage done up there to Cat. it was a D9,that's  a big Cat. That night after we left the Timber patch was when all of this came down. I don't scare easy. yet I found my self thing, should I get on the roof, or under the Cook shack with the dog !

 oh, the Loader operator's name was Mark Spackman.I think he was only about 20 years old at the time. I removed from Laytonville in Oct. of 1972.And my Husband Art Frost passed in Oct.8,1988.the only other thing that came up was about a week in working the Area, Allan Frost came into Dinner one night and asked who was trying to prank him by throwing rocks at him. He was angry and up set. 

 that was a very strange Camp.it had been logged before back in the 40[s or 50's. However, logs and Equipment had been brought in  and out by Train. We had to build the road into the area. this creature is a Mystery I hope they solve before I leave this world. Would not want it hurt or killed, or even caught other than on film or video. if they have been able to live hidden for this long, let them live. Thank you for letting me share my Story. haven't told many folks about in my life time. There are just some things people will not understand. All I can say for sure is, I may not have put my eyes on it, but i know, something is out there. we did have a Logging Truck go off the road with a Full Load of Logs out of that Camp. but don't know what caused him to do so. Can say, I will never forget the sound of that scream.

RMSO

Thank you for the detail. Enjoyed hearing about your experience.

Linda

You are most welcome. only wish I could have said myself or Crew had put eyes on it. Only damage, tracks rock throwing and feelings of being watched and hearing the Screams. .Our crew were only humans around for miles. sure wish I could find some of the folks that were there at that time to back up what happened

RMSO

I feel you already have back up. This is the 3rd logging crew in California to be harassed by Bigfoot that I am aware of. May be more. Seems the Bigfoot don't like logging activity.

I would like to make a blog post about your experiences if that is OK?

Linda Louise

if you like, it is fine with me. perhaps there are still some out there alive that may be able to add to this event. I was young at the time, and am now close to 70 years old. Should you do so, and get feed back, please let me know. have wondered and thought about this event for years.

 Things that have happened in the woods that no one wants to talk about. People would think we were crazy.once you reach an age,you don't care what they think.You your self knew it happened.Hope some one else recalls this.to find this animal would be like a Deer hunt.people that don't hunt deer think a person just drives out to woods,and Bambi is standing there with a Bulls eye painted on his side.having spent many years in the woods,I have seen people walk right past Deer,Bear,even watched a Cougar follow a man along a ridge right above him. He didn't have a clue. We were in his world.messing up his back yard. Of course he would get up set. I know I would.

RMSO

OK I will keep you in the loop if anyone responds to the blog.
