Nightwolf (45:28)
My name is Nightwolf. I live in Pueblo, Colorado. It's been some years. I never told anybody but me and my brother. This happened in 1999. Had to be around fall, and we were traveling. We got done coming from a farmer's market, and we grabbed some pears and apples and we were going to go up to Bertha's pass on West 40. Just go, you know, drive up there because, you know, it's a cool drive in the mountains. So we go driving up there and the road's windy, it's in the mountains. And we come across this bend in the road. We're just cruising along, you know, just sightseeing, me and my brother chatting and laughing and talking. The time, it had to be around 6 o' clock because the sun barely started going down. I look in my rearview mirror and I told my brother, there's a bear. You know, it's coming over the side of the road. It's on the side of a mountain. So it goes straight down and then goes straight up the other side of the mountain. So we slam on the brakes and I said, hey, give me one of those pairs. And he gives me one and I get out and I used to pitch, so I maybe about a good 50ft from it. And I told him, I said, I'm gonna just throw this pear at this bear and hit him and, you know, he'll probably just eat it. So my brother gets out and he goes, it don't look like a bear. And I said, no, it's a bear. So I grabbed a pear and I throw it as hard as I could, and I hit it in the side where the shoulder would be on the bear. And it just like started sitting up. And I was like, okay. And by the crazy thing is, it grabbed the pair and my brother started freaking out. And then I was like, just calm down. I said, you know, just be cool. I said, we don't even know what it is. And then it fully erected and stood straight up. Look like a man. And I was like, dude, ain't no bear, dude. And, you know, we started thinking about it and we were standing near the trunk of the car, just staring at this thing, you know, and it's massive. I'd say a good eight, eight and a half feet. This thing is big. And, you know, we're close enough to see details. And I told my brother, I said, you know what? I said, I see all these documentaries, dude, about, you know, bigfoot and, you know, yetis, but everybody always runs. I told my brother, I said, Just get on your cell phone and get ready to call 91 1. And he goes, what are you gonna do? And I said, well, give me the whole bag of pears. And then I seen two other little heads popping up on the side of the road. And it was weird because we didn't smell nothing. You didn't smell anything at all. And then all of a sudden, you seen this, another big one coming up. And it was, like, kind of on all fours, but kind of, like, hunched over, walking. And then you seen a little one. And I was like, oh, man, there's a whole family of them. And I said, give me the bag. And I took the bag from my brother because he was so scared. I started walking over there, and he goes, dude, don't do that. You know, he'll rip you in half. I said, no, man. You know, I'm gonna go look at this thing. I said, I don't care. I'm gonna get close as possible to it. Well, I started getting probably within, like, another about 15ft of it, and I threw another pair, and I hit him in the chest with it. And all of a sudden, he must have took it as an aggressive act or something, because we didn't smell nothing. But he right away stretched his arms completely out, which, I mean, they were long. And he, like, let out this girdling, like. I don't want to say a roar, but had a lot of bass to it. You could feel it in your chest. I don't know. It was just, like, bass, like a hardcore grind. So when he did that, then it started to stink. As soon as he did that, it started smelling and stinking as soon as he spread his arms out and felt threatened. So it was kind of weird. His fur was, like, a darkish brown. You could see, like. I don't know if he was old or not, because you can see, like, gray in it. So I don't know if he was, like an elder or something. Being Navajo, we are always taught to respect them and stuff. So I had grabbed that whole bag of pears, and I threw it as hard as I can. So, you know, he could give it to his family or just take the whole bag or whatever he's gonna do with it. But they all look the same, but they were, like, a dark brown. But it was weird, though, because the little one, his face was like. You could see skin, but it was, like, covered in hair. But it was real, like, perfectly round. Like, it didn't get its shape yet. Not like the dad and the mom, you know, with the crest on their head. It was insanely crazy. And after that, we had jumped back in the car and we were all scared and we went down to the nearest store and we had told him, you know, we saw bigfoot on Bertha's past. And they go, oh, yeah, you know, we get that around here quite often. You know, we hear stories. And I said, no, it just happened. And me and my brother actually sat down and started talking. And it was funny because his Bigfoot's face looked just like my dad's. And we just started cracking up. We're like, oh, Bigfoot's face looked just like dad's. And the way my dad grew his beard and mustache and his hair being long and everything and the way he looks, it just the same thing, you know. It was like odd and weird. And one thing that got me was like his nose, the Bigfoot's nose was like. It looked like it had almost like the same texture as a dog's nose. It was strange, weird. But he looked like kind of greasy too. But yeah, that's my story, man. My son keeps telling me to call you and stuff. We love your show and yeah, we appreciate you being out there and doing this for people to be able to call, you know. Alright, thank you. Bye.
