BFRO #77591: DUSK PROTEST -- 23 miles south of Macon -- Big rocks thrown around sundown near remote boat launch on Ocmulgee River

📍 Location

📝 Description

I ride UTV�s regularly near GA DNR property on West Lake Rd in Twiggs County GA. Early evening on September 22, 2023 my wife and I rode to the makeshift boat ramp area along the Ocmulgee River. Best guess approximately 4 miles from the nearest paved road. We parked the utv and walked around near the bank like we normally do. I thought I stepped in feces based on the unbelievably bad smell that came suddenly out of nowhere. Imagine a trash truck rolling around in dog doo. I checked my shoes, the tires on my utv and even asked my wife to rinse her shoes off in the water so none of �whatever that was� made it in to my utv. She and I both went to the water edge to rinse our shoes. Turning back to return to the utv from the river edge she and I both saw a stone fly from the woods 45 yards in front of us over our heads and land in the water behind us. We turned and looked at each other and before either of us could speak another rock flew over us in to the river behind us. Neither of us saw what threw the stones or heard anything unusual. That ended our evening ride and we got out of there as quickly as possible. Bigfoot is not something regularly discussed in my home. It was far from my first thought during and immediately following the incident. On the way home my wife Googled �smell bad throws rocks� or something like that and had a �holy cow!� Moment when the search results came back as Bigfoot. When we got home I tried to throw a similar sized rock (7 inches in diameter) as a comparison. I was able to get it across a 2 lane road at about 6� at the height of its arc. I am 6� tall 200 lb lineman who climbs telephone poles daily so I�m at least moderately healthy and at least average strength for a 40 yo male. Who or whatever threw these stones was considerably stronger than I am and could throw the stones around 25 feet high and for 45 yards. Three + times further and much higher than I could. I�d like to think this could have been a hilarious game warden or practical joker but the isolation of the area combined with the fact that there were no other vehicles or ATV�s within sight or earshot makes it unlikely. It would take several days to reach this area on foot without motorized vehicles.
