We finish out the episode with Fred sharing a story of two brothers, Jim and Jake, and their experience of building a cabin on a remote five-acre plot in Alaska, accessible only by float plane. The brothers, who had to contend with the constant challenges of transporting materials and the dangers of the wilderness, encountered a grizzly bear and heard strange whooping sounds near their camp. One day, while Jake was alone, he witnessed and tried to photograph an unknown bipedal creature but failed. Their tools were mysteriously scattered, leading to an early retreat advised by their pilot. They returned two years later to find things relatively untouched but found evidence of a large, nest-like structure. Their intermittent returns have revealed further mysterious damage to their cabin, adding to the intrigue.
