Weekend Expedition in Paul Bunyun State Forest 6-27--6-28-09

We headed up to Bena Minnesota to Meet Don Sherman a fellow reseacher from Northern Minnesota at a bar called The Big Winni, so we met up with him and we talked about eatchother's experiences/encounters and whats going on in the area of Paul Bunyun state Forest where campers have been chased out by these creatures, the campers have been chased out about 3 week's ago and that's the last that he has heard of it so He told us what he knew about it and of course us being us want to camp in that same camping area to see what would happened, He gave us a map of the area and pointed out where it all was takeing place at, after we meet him we went there but it costed $12.00 and i didnt have it at the time and didn't want to get kicked out befor we got a chance to explore there so we headed back to Bemiji and sleeped in a gas station parking lot it was about 4:30-5:?? am at that time, after 4 houres of sleep i woke up to Squatchy asking a loco man if he knew of any good fishing spots in the area and he told Squatchy about a spot in Bemiji that had a dock, well i knew as soon as i woke up thats where he would want to go so i just woke up and took him there my plan was to let him do some fishing for a couple of hours well i get some rest and catch up on some sleep, well it was about a half a hour when his phone rang and it was a team member that goes by the nick name of Monstaquest realy good guy that joined us about a month ago, well anyways he was ready to meet up with us and told us to meet him in Kabekona no problem so i went to go get Squatchy and finaly got him back in the car and off we went to go meet Monstaquest with the R.V. that he was brining for us to camp in, so we meet up with him and gave him the down low about us meeting with Don Sherman the night befor and what he said about the area, then we head out to the area and we stop at a lake there, BIG MISTAKE Squatchy & Monstaquest wanted to do some fishing and i was thinking to myself who brings fishing stuff on a Bigfoot Expedition where here for research and not fishing, i was getting PISSED OFF but I did understand that Monstaquest does have alot of stuffgoing on in his life right now and he needed to relief some stress so they did, but i think they did it for like 2-3 hours when i was planing on doing a expedition as soon as we set up the camp sight and got squared away with that, i was hopeing that we could of hicked across the State Forest in search od eveidence, i was realy getting heated and started to whistel the Andy griffith theam song in hopes that if a bigfoot heard it that it would whistle it back later or something i was also walking around looking for prints witch i didi find 1 that messured 9 inches long & 3.5 inches wide across the toes & 3 inches wide at the heel, ill hafe to look at the pic to make sure but it was a little one and at this lake there was no sand except in the water other wise it was all dirt & Gravel with sticks & poison ivy and some glass fragements scattered around not a good place to be walking around bare footed well that did calm me down a little & they did catch some fish witch we did eat for lunch but during that time of them fishing i was getting mad and started to think about the other 3 prople that were going to come but thing's fell apart for them at the last minuet and i was thinking if they where here we would be doing the hicking well these 2 would be catching fish and collectine evidence,,,,GGGRRR anyways later after we ate we did go to a teepee formation that Monsta did see on our way in or out of the park on one of our trips to town, this teepee had a tree or branch on top of it that was hoiziantle and we went to where one end was pointing and hicked a ways past it and seen other structures & arches, arches that where stuck in the ground or had stuff on top of them from keeping them popped up, then we went back to the teepee and went the other direction and we had to cross the street and again there was more arches and other structures but as we hicked we found poop that looked like human poop i was decideing to collect it but it wasent frese because it wasent warm so there was no telling how old it was or if there was any good D.N.A. left in it so i decided to leave it bacause i didn't want poop hanging around in my refridgeorator sorry about thew spelling, so after that we did hear some wood knocking and the Mesquitos where just BAD yes we did have Deep wood's off on but as we hiked the sweat would make it come off and after spraying it back on a couple of times we just thought lets get out of here and get some food, so we did and we headed back to camp fore some food & Rest and a couple of beer's.  At camp i would do wood knocking every 15-20 min and i would do 3 knocks, well it wasent untill after sundown that we heard 3-5 woodknock's out of the blue so we would respond and this went on for about 1-2 hours and around that time i was having trouble keeping my eye's open & Squatchy was falling asleep in the chaire, so i turned on the tree cam's that covered our area and we all went in to the R.V. for a good night's rest, i should mention that we did leave a pack of hamburger bun's out and some thing did disturbe them well we were slepping/during the night, we woke up around 8:?? something because Monstaquest came back in from fishing because his wife wanted to make somekind of fish soup and asked if he would catch some more well he had no luck that morning, so we woke up and did the morning stuff and we were going to where we heard the knocking sounds from so we headed out back to the lake and once we got there Monstaquest changed his mind and decited that he was going to fish instead of expedition, i almost said something but again i know he has been realy stressed about stuff so i did let it slide aint i a nice guy :) so me and Squatchy did the hiking around and as we where about to go up this trail that goes around the lake i spoted a little foot print, like it was a baby or toddler bigfoot foot print, so i casted it but the detail wasent there like it was in the dirt but i did take a video of it and that was that, i feel safe to say that with all the stick structures & the tree knocking that there could be a clane on thim in this area and i would like to do futuer expedition's in that state forest.
