Bigfoot Domed Stick Shelter

During the winter of 2009, I was hiking around in the woods near the lake in a Wildlife Area in Salt Fork State Park when I came across this domed structure. A few months later in the spring,I made a return trip to that location while out fishing and took some pictures of the structure. The "hut" was constructed of tree limbs carefully stacked around two boulders that were at right angles to each other. The limbs were tightly stacked together and a layer of leaves were placed over and around the entire structure, then limbs were placed over the leaf coverings. There was a large opening on one side for entry and exit. There was more than enough room inside for any large individual to sleep completely out of the wind and the shelter was situated such that anything inside would be completely concealed from view. We have had encounters through Gifting in this location on a number of occasions in the years since.
