The Mystery of the Skunk Ape

Pastor Chet thought he planned a tame Bible Camp -- until he learned about a hairy ape roaming the Timucua Forest...

It was supposed to be an easy trip. After all, if was their fourth expedition into the Central Florida backwoods. Pastor Chet and his crew had already learned a lot about the challenges of camping with preteen and teen boys: He'd lost a boy, even braved poisonous snakes, an impending hurricane and forest fire.

So when the New York-born pastor returned to the backwoods, he planned everything very carefully. What he didn't count on was a hairy ape, one who captured the imaginations of some of his campers, both big and little. Was it Florida's bigfoot, the skunk ape?
