And there was this very strange low tone going on at the same time, kind of like, oh. It sounded like something was imitating coyotes. But I, it's tough. It's tough because I really didn't, I didn't rule it out right away. Something was off. Something was off about the sound. I grew up, you know, out where I am and there's coyotes, there's fisher cats, there's bobcats, all types of stuff.
I'm so used to that. But this this was like a huge pack of coyotes and it sounded so close. They were like yelling like this, like, you know, just like like children screaming. And we were like, oh, my God, what is happening? That is that it's coyotes, right? Like that's coyotes. And my boyfriend, he was kind of joking around. He was like, oh, it's Bigfoot.
And he picks up this big log and he whomps it off a tree. And to be honest with you, I was kind of pissed because I was like, don't do that. Like, you're freaking me out. Like, okay, Bigfoot, you know, he's just joking around. Ten minutes go by, we're just sitting there in silence, and we hear a huge, like, thump, like a wood-on-wood whack. It sounded like somebody...
had taken wood and hit a tree. And I was so pissed. I was like, no, no, like this isn't, this isn't happening. This is like so not okay right now. So we both kind of looked at each other with our jaws dropped and we're like, we should go to bed. Let's go to bed right now. So we just threw like all of this crackly pine kind of mixture onto the fire to like make sound.
And we just crawled right in the tent and went to bed. We were like, not even gonna talk about it. Let's go to sleep now.
So we went to bed that night, nothing out of the ordinary. It was pretty cold. We were, you know, kind of boiling water and putting it into Nalgene bottles and like putting it at the end of our sleeping bags to keep our toes warm and stuff like that. You know, just kind of finding little things to do to, you know, fill up time and stay comfortable up there. So we woke up the next morning.
And it was beautiful out. It was absolutely gorgeous outside. But again, just kind of still feeling that strange uncomfortableness of, like, I feel like someone's watching me. I just don't feel like I can, like, run around here freely. Like, I have the past 22 years out here. So I was staying really, like, refrained from leaving the immediate area of the shelter.
We both went down to the bear hang about... I want to say like four yards down the trail and got our food off and I packed up a bunch of bacon and we got the fire going again in the morning and we just decided to cook up all this bacon and eggs and have a really good breakfast and things felt okay. Things were, you know, just slightly odd, but not enough for us to be like freaking out.
Um, it got to about 12, you know, and I was like, okay, well, I think it's time to, you know, get ready for lunch or whatever. And he gets a fire going. And then by like one, one 30, I was like, okay, I'm hungry. I'm ready to eat some lunch. Um, but I noticed that we didn't actually have any water. I decided that I was going to go filter water alone. And I was like, this is my moment.
Like the sun is shining. It's a bluebird day. I just, you know, I want to have a good day. I got to stop literally just hanging out like on top of my partner, you know? So I grabbed all of our bottles and I was going to go fill them up at this little tiny Creek. That's maybe like 40 or 50 feet away from the shelter.
And I start walking down this little tiny path to this Creek and I get like, I don't know, maybe 20, 30 feet away. And I just stopped like dead in my tracks. And I feel the slightest rumble just in my feet on the ground. And I stop, I feel like freeze in place. And I just turn around and I'm looking at my partner who is at the shelter in front of the fire ring.
And I'm just staring at him and I'm just watching him. And all of a sudden I just hear this rumbling sound and I'm like, oh shit. So I run over to him and I'm like, do you hear that? And he's like, yeah, what is that? And I'm like, I don't know. And it almost sounded like an ATV in the distance. I was like, you know, really confused. And I was thinking to myself, oh shit. Okay, rangers are coming.
They saw our car parked at the parking lot. I don't know what the rules and regulations are with COVID and like the national forest being shut down. I have no idea if this is a new thing. Everything is new. I'm questioning everything. And I'm just like, we're going to get yelled at. They're going to tell us we have to leave. And in a matter of like 60 to 90 seconds,
You know, we're both standing there. We're both talking about, oh, shit, like the Rangers, they're coming, you know, and the sound is just changing. And I'm thinking to myself, oh, my God, this is like 20 ATVs. Like, we really fucked up. We're about to get in so much trouble right now. And then I was like, hold on.
Like, we got to go away from the fire because sometimes when the wind is blowing on the fire, it kind of has that like.
sound to it so i was like we gotta get away from the fire pit so i take him kind of to this like swampy inlet off the right hand side of the shelter and we're standing there and all of a sudden this sound just transforms into the most intense metallic rumbling i've ever experienced in my entire life
The only way that I can describe it when I'm talking to my family is it sounded exactly like a space shuttle taking off at the Kennedy Space Center. Like just an unbelievable sound. And I was standing about four feet away from my boyfriend. And I couldn't hear a single thing he was saying. We were trying to yell to each other. He says like, I just instantly turned completely ghost white.
And I could just see him mouthing the words breathe. And I'm like looking at him and I'm like, what's happening, you know? And we both... experienced this insane pressure in our heads. And as soon as this sound started, I would have done anything to make it end. Truly anything. I was like running around at one point, just like, what do I do? I can't hold my ears. I can like hear it through.
holding my ears. It feels like it's in my head. I've really gone to air shows my whole life. My childhood, my grandfather was an Air Force pilot. This was something completely different. I've never experienced anything of that magnitude in my life. This sound was so deafening that there's no way... I mean, whatever it was, it would have had to be so close that you couldn't possibly do it.
I mean, there's mountains on every single side of this valley, you know? It's just, it seemed impossible to even think about it. Truly, truly, if you pull up a video of a space shuttle taking off at the Kennedy Space Center, you know, just that unbelievable rumbling metallic, like this has to come from like a machine almost, I'm thinking in my mind, you know? It's so overwhelming.
