Bigfoot Entered My Campsite at 4AM | NW Yeti Quest’s Wild Pacific Northwest Encounters

0:00 You're listening to bigflet Society, and I'm Jeremiah Byron. In this show, we go beyond the campfire stories to bring you first hand encounters from people who say they've seen something impossible. From backwoods trails and remote mountain haulers to quiet farms and crowded highways. The stories come from everywhere, and each one leaves us with more questions than answers. These are the voices of the people who've lived it. To settle in, because today you'll hear another account that just might change the way you see the woods forever. So stay with us, all right, Bigfoot Society. We got the privilege of talking to Hugh Knight. You remember, You may remember Hugh from his channel's name is Northwest Yetti Quest back in episode eight eighteen. So it's been a while back. I believe it was called Sasquatch Valley and quite an informative episode, and Hugh has been up to some wild stuff since then, so we figured it was a good time to get an update. But how are you, Hugh?

1:03 I'm good. How are you doing? Great? Man? We were just talking. I have not watched the whole channel You've been putting out some great stuff, and like, man, you've been putting out some really interesting stuff and I am really excited to hear some stories about what's going on. But you brought up a good point before we started is that you know, there's a lot there's a lot more listeners on this channel than there was back then, and so you know it might be good to do a little a little refresher before we get into the new stuff. Yeah, no, I can do that. So, yeah, my journey started in this bigfoot thing in the spring of twenty four and I was up mining for AGO's crystals rocks, just a hobby thing that I'm still involved with, but not so much anymore. It's all sasquatch now. But I was just on a mountaintop, looked into a valley below and was staring at a sasquatch in total disbelief. I wasn't a believer of sasquatch in that moment. And yeah, I was able to get video on my phone of it, but it was real far away, it was real poor footage, and because the footage was poor, and just for my own I just had to convince myself and everybody that is in my life that what I saw was a sasquatch.

2:30 So I went pretty hard into researching that area and immediately started finding things. Immediately, I found a meadow full of logs impaled into the ground like long darts, like logs this big around, just stuck in the ground in the most unnatural way, upside down. I found footprints. I found a lot of things, a lot of weird experiences and stuff. And we kind of went over all that in the previous video but previous interview, but a lot has happened since that interview, and I guess, you know, we will get into that because shortly after the interview, I was up there on a mission. And I'm pretty sure this wasn't talked about in the last interview, but forgive me if it was, but I don't think it was the closest I've ever came to being near a sasquatch was where I was up there camping, and I set up a camp site that has a lot of sort of like Christmas lights strung up and weird. I create this like low budget rave type illusion when I'm up in the woods because I'm trying to create something that is going to peak the curiosity of these beings.

3:49 Something they've never seen before, laser lights and flashy lights and weird stuff like that, just some kind of weird idea that I had, And so that was all set up. My buddy was there, my son was there, and we're sleeping. I had set an alarm to wake me up around four AM, and I was gonna go out with my night vision camera and just walk around the trees and see what I could find for the few hours before the sun came up. And I'm laying there in the tent and I'm thinking do I really want to go do this and debating it. It's four in the morning, and my son is in the tent with me, and my dog is in the tent with me, And as I'm having this conversation in my head, half asleep, half dead, I realized, standing over my tent because of the flashy light stuff, is a full blown giant figure right above me, and so it had to have been there when I woke up, and it probably heard me stirring, and it took me a moment to realize it. But because I have all these strobe light flashy light things going all over because they run all night, I could see this figure above my and it's huge, and it's moving back and forth, and so I grabbed my camera. I don't know what my plan was, because I mean I still had to unzip a tent and go out there. But I grabbed my camera, turned the camera on, and it made this noise and this figure just goes phoosh gone, silent gone as soon as the camera went babe be gone.

5:22 And what's amazing is it didn't even alert my dog. My dog is next to me and my son to sleep, and so that tripped me out pretty hard. I didn't go out. My plan was to go out, but after that happened, I just kind of thought, you know, maybe I don't want to go out there at four am, leaving my son here in the tent, and kind of debated that for a while, but laying there and I fell back asleep, woke up at seven am ish seven am sort of and got up, crawled out of the tent, was going over to make coffee, and I was thinking to my head, like, am I even gonna tell my buddy about this who slept in his car? You know, like it's just one of those things like is anybody gonna believe this? But then immediately he says, what were you doing last night? Why were you looking in the windows of my car? Were you all like out playing with your night vision? And I'm like, Joe, I didn't come out of the tent last night, like after you saw me go to bed. I never came out, didn't even come out to me. So whatever I saw, he saw, and he thought it was me playing with my night vision in the middle of the night. And and so I know it was a sasquatch and and I mean, I can't prove it. But since that happened, there has been multiple incidents now where these beings have came into my campsite and on some occasions actually made it blatantly obvious that they entered my campsite. And so I wanted to start with that story because you know, that was

6:54 basically my second siding, the closest that I've I'm aware of that I've ever been one of these things. But this is repeated again and again now where they are getting very comfortable in my campsite. Okay, and on the next occasion where one of these came into my campsite. Hugh, sorry, real quick, just to provide some context, I think for the listeners, and I know that you are. You don't really give specifics as to where this happens, but just for the listener, is this happening in Oregon or Washington or Okay? So my research area is it's in the Pacific Northwest, and it's it's a coastal mountain area very near the mouth of the Columbia River. I don't like to give too much more than that. You draw a circle around the mouth of the Columbia and yeah, it's basically my region.

7:52 I'm just weird. I'm real protective of exactly where this is. But it's it's right in that vicinity, you know, it's it's it's uh, yeah, I don't know. I don't like to say much more than that. Is that all right? No? I think that's that's perfect. That gives listeners like they can probably imagine the area in their mind. And I think that's that's. An area coastal you know, forests, green trees, never snows, it's got berries, it's got wildfish runs, it's got I mean, it's it's like a utopia for Sasquatch, it really is. It has everything, herds of elk and deer and everything, mushrooms, galore. I mean, as soon as the berries dry up, the mushrooms grow up. And in this area they have the choice between freshwater clams or saltwater clams. Year round they can go get clams. It's it's this area is a utopia of sasquatch. And and we'll hopefully have enough time to get into some of my some of my theories on why this area is so inundated with evidence of them, and because well, I guess I'll just mention that I believe, and I have some evidence to support this, that it's an area where different clans converge, possibly for the winner.

9:09 Different clans come and winter there, then they leave, while other clans are resident clans that stay there year round. And I'll get into why I believe that, you know, and when I get into talking about the pine cones. We talked about the pine cones last. Oh sure, yeah, And but I wanted to tell the next version because this next story kind of happened right at pretty close just a few months after our last interview. I believe it was a while ago, but I know it was around that time period. But this was at this stage in my research, I was pretty much trying to stay away from the wu side of things. You know, I didn't want to believe that these are beings that can become invisible, and you know, I didn't want anything to do with that. I had seen a lot of stuff about it, and I just I was gonna stay away from the paranormal, stay away from the weird. I wanted to create a bunch of evidence that would speak to non believers and bring them into the fold and just get people to accept that these things are real. And that all kind of changed. On this this next trip, I was I was awesome. I was all alone camping because I do a lot of solo research trips. Actually, well I haven't done one since this story actually, and

10:42 I know died on this trip, so that might be why. But I planned to do more solo trips in the future. But I was all alone doing I believe it was supposed to be four nights. It ended up only being three because I left in an ambulance. And I'll get to that. But I was camping in my campsite, and this is a special site that I had created. This campsite. It was a logging road that was well overgrown, decades of overgrown trees, and brush and to breathe that I cleared with chainsaws and made it so I can get in there with my truck. And I wanted a campsite deep in the woods where the wildlife wasn't used to seeing people. And that's kind of how I created this campsite.

11:25 And I refer to this campsite as base camp. It's like my main campsite. And so I'm in there by myself, and I stayed up all night in this hunting blind, drinking coffee and just sitting there staring at the darkness, all by myself, and nothing happened. Nothing, And the sun comes up, and I'm just like, why did I do this to myself? And it's time for bed, And I guess I have to jump to a different story actually because they tie in, so sorry, and I probably I don't know if I told you this story in the first interview. I don't think I did. But it was the first time I ever had a vocalization experience. I was by myself. This was pretty early in my research, one of my first solo missions actually, and I'm hiking into this canyon. There's a lot of deep canyon systems and I get down to this beautiful river, waterfalls, and giant agots all over down there. And I'm talking agots.

12:32 This is an aggot that I actually pulled out of that very canyon. And this is just a you know, this is a big old crystal face. This whole rock is a blue ago. If you cut this open, it's it's got blues and greens. And this is just sitting in the creek, you know, And these are this is just I mean, I could fill trucks with agots as big out of this canyon. And so I enter into this canyon, I spend the day down there, and I have my dog with me, and she's a three legs pit bull. And you don't know, we don't find any super compelling evidence of sasquatch or anything, but it's right on the edge of areas that are just inundated with signs.

13:13 So I very much felt a presence in there, an eeriness in this canyon, but nothing that blew my mind on that first trip as far as you know, upside down trees or tree breaks or anything. And as we're climbing out of this canyon, I'm almost to the very top and well over the halfway point, and something screams at me from that canyon bottom the most just I mean, this sound, gut wrenching sound, and it's very different than any audio anybody who's ever recorded. It sounded like machinery. It sounded like like a it's like a click click click click sound with this rhythmic just roar to it.

13:57 And you know, I've compared it to like a giant diesel engine not wanting to fire or something. It's a very weird sound, very strange sound. And that sound just blasts out of that canyon at me, and my dog looks at me, and my dog terrified and she she's not one to be terrified, but whatever that sound was scared her to death. She's looking at me like, no, you know, let's get out of here. And we did. We continued on, and so that sound is important because now I got to go back to the night in my campsite by myself. I just got done spending all night in the hunting blind. Didn't feel well, been drinking coffee all night. I had this nauseating feeling and the sun's coming up and the birds are squealing like crazy, and I had to go to bed, and so I get in my tent six thirty seven something like that.

14:50 I put one ear plug in one ear, I put the other ear in the pillow, and I fall asleep. And I'm hard asleep for a few hours. It's roughly ten am, and all of a sudden, my I can't just gets blasted racked with this noise and I'm like dead tired, groggy, and I hear this sound and I'm like thinking heavy equipment, like loggers, Like what that must because I this all takes place in a logging wilderness and so I hear this sound and I think it's it's like heavy equipment. I think it's logging, and I'm just like dead tired. I've been asleep for about two three hours, and I fall back to sleep. It hits my tent again. I don't know if it was seconds, minutes, I don't know how much longer, but blast my tent again, and it wakes me up, and I'm thinking like like what are they doing? Like there's they're logging this close to my campsite, and I'm just not thinking about how abnormal this is. And I start falling back to sleep again, and like I said, I have a pillow in the ear ear plug in one ear, and I'm I start falling back to sleep, and this sound hits my tent so loud, so obnoxious, and it dawns on you that's the same sound from that canyon. And I'm on my feet, you know, heart bounding, bolt out of the tent, and I'm looking everywhere. And I don't know if this thing was being blasted from two feet from my tent or from thirty yards, I don't know, but I knew that that was the same sound from the canyon. I'm looking everywhere.

16:20 There's nothing to be seen, nothing going on. And that's when I look over and I had placed a giant red apple right outside my tent, right in front of a trail cam. And I have a lot of trail cams. I use trail cams a lot. I know people say that's a big no no. I don't care. I use them. And the apple was gone. So I get my reader, I go with the trail cam, I pull that chip out and I'm going through looking at the So the apple's there one second, gone the next broad daylight, no explanation for it. And so whatever blasted that sound into my tent, remove that apple without without being filmed. On a trail cam. That is I'm talking maybe ten feet away, aim directly at the apple. That was the reason the apple was there, The trail cam was there. And so that was a big kind of eye opener for me about the whole cloaking invisibility thing. And I had seen videos of other people that have talked about this, and I was very skeptical of it. But at that moment I realized, Okay, I have to accept that this is a possibility, because this was beyond weird, just you know, disappear in broad daylight. And I've played with my trailcms enough to know that there is nothing that could remove that apple without it being taken a picture. And I have videos of birds that actually have came in and

17:52 removed fruit, and there's video of it. You see them, Like a butterfly goes in front of a trail cam, it turns on, you see. For an apple to pick up and leave without being triggering the motion detector, it's impossible, but yet there it was. And I had placed fruit in front of trail cams many many times and came back to check the footage and the fruit's there one second gone the next I was dismissive of it because it's out in the woods middle of nowhere, So you know, thought, I don't know, somehow I just vanished or a bird grabbed it, or and it didn't take a picture. You know, I was dismissive of it. But in that moment, with the sound blasted in my tent, the apple disappearing feet from my tent, with me in my tent, and so that was what I would consider the second time one of these beings entered my campsite with me in my campsite.

18:48 There's several more, but on that trip. So I went back to bed after this. I tried to go back to bed, and I might have got another hour and a half asleep, but you know, pretty rattled by the whole incident. And so I got up that day and I loaded up my e bike in the back of my truck and drove to a gate. Parked at the gate, got on the e bike and started heading into this really important area. It's this meadow with all these logs and paled into the ground, the most strangest thing. And I was trying to get there because I wanted to snoop around that area. That area is always a major focal point, but it's really hard to get to. And so I'm in route trying to get to this place, and I'm on an e bike cruising down a logging road and a logger and a truck comes around a corner and hits me, runs me over, and I get messed up pretty bad. I'm under his truck, pinned under his truck and oh my good, yeah, and he grabs reverse and drags me in the bike, and that long story short, he had to take me out of there and get an ambulance and you know, and so that was the end of that trip. I didn't break any bones.

20:04 Fourteen stitches across my knee and some damage to my shin, nerve, damage in my leg and stuff like that. But for the most part, I'm all healed up. I just have little issues of it. But once I got out of the hospital, I had to get back up there to get my camp out of there. All my camping gear was up there, and my truck was up there, everything, and I couldn't walk. I had two crutches because both legs are badly damaged, and so I could kind of move on the crutches, and so I had my father come with me to unload my campsite. And when we got to my campsite, I have two tents, my sleeping tent my kitchen tent, and something had came into that camp while I was gone that day and pushed down on my kitchen tent so far down and those are pretty flexible polls. It pushed all the way down, so one of the polls shattered. And there's no bird that landed on that thing. In order to do that would have been a powerful curious being. It was like, what's this.

21:14 It pushes and springs back, pushes and springs at and snapped the poll. Now I wasn't there when that happened. I didn't see it happened, so I don't know for sure, but I strongly suspected it was the sasquatch that did that. And I don't consider that one of the times they entered my campsite definitively. But I have several incidences where I'm pretty sure they entered my campsite, but I don't know for sure. And for example, I now have a new kitchen tent because that one got broken, and every night I go to bed, I ziped that kitchen door up because I don't want raccoons. I don't want wildlife coming into my kitchen. I can't even count how many times I had woke up and looked at my kitchen tent and it is zip oh, wide open in the middle of the night. Something that's came in there and unzipped it. And obviously every time it happens, I have to stare at it, I have to guess second guess myself.

22:12 But I'm so anal about zipping up that tent when I go to bed there there's just no way I didn't. And so I've never noticed food was missing, though, never anything for sure. And so if if it is sasquatch coming in there and taking stuff, they're only taking very minimal stuff, you know, I because I can never definitively say, oh, the bag of apples was gone or the bag of onions are you know. So it's weird, but it's something that's happened over and over again. And on a recent mission, my most recent mission, actually a friend of mine flew in from Mexico. He lives in Cabo outside of Cabo, and he was real big into sasquat's way before I was.

22:58 And so when I got into this thing, he got real excited and he wanted to come out and do a research trip with me, and so he did, and he met me and we went out and spent a few days in the woods. And on the last morning, our very final morning, I come out of the tent and he's like all excited. He's like, you got to come see this, and he shows me and there's a trail of footprints right through our campsite, going right alongside my truck, and these are just examples of them entering my campsite. And I actually have the cast we made of that footprint. It's on my video too. I have a video about it. But it was a footprint in the moss upon the gravel, and so it just didn't sink in very deep. But the toes showed up and the ankle would have been pretty good, but all the gravel pulled out when I pulled it out of that.

23:58 So it's not a great by any means. But I didn't have a whole lot of faith in it because it just wasn't a deep set cast. But the video and the pictures we took of it and all that, it's very clearly footprints, you know. A series of footprints, not huge footprints, but you know, bigger than mine. And I'm an eleven, so this is probably just a twelve thirteen ish size footprint. It's great how you can see the toes on it. It's very cool. Yeah, they just barely came out, and yeah it was This is my first in actually calling the guy that with me. He's really the one that did all the casting, but that was my first experience with ever doing casting at all. So it was kind of good to see how he did it. And now I know how I will do it different when we do it at a later time. But I've found a lot of footprints up there.

24:49 I mean I've the problem with the footprints I find up there is it's all this mossy pineataly junk, so you just don't get really good clear footprints. But I found a phenomenal juvenile footprint in the sand. But well, I shouldn't say phenomenal. It was kind of washed out, had been rained out. But it was really awesome find. That was on a trip with my wife, my daughter, and my son. And we need to talk about this trip because a lot actually was found on this trip. My daughter and I were exploring up this river and just there in the sand was this child size foot in the sand. It was really cool. It's the only well at that time period. It was the only juvenile print I'd ever found. Since then, I found one more that I'm pretty sure was a juvenile print. It was in the moss in a different area, but that was my first juvenile That one would have been castable, but I didn't have casting supplies on because that took place actually before Colin and I made that cast. But that was This whole trip with my wife and kids was pretty interesting. It was right after I had started healing from getting ran over, and my wife was wanting to know what I wanted to do for Father's Day and I told her, well, my first sighting took place Saturday, the day before Father's Day. That was the very first sighting.

26:20 That's what started me down all this. So I told her for my one year anniversary to my siding, I said, no, matter what, I'm going to my research area for Father's Day. And so she said, okay, well, I guess you're taking all of us, and so we all went and I had very low expectations of being a really good productive trip with my wife and kids, because I go to some pretty hard to get to places. I mean, I'm climbing deep in the woods. I'm not doing one of those research trips where we just hang out in a campground in Hope. That Sasquat's come to us Like we're trekking deep into the trees, deep into the woods. And so, you know, with my wife and kids, I couldn't expect them to go that hard into some of the places I like to go to. But it was pretty awesome.

27:09 We found that footprint, my daughter and I. That was a big deal. And that same day, this is one year to the day of my sighting, we're driving through this stretch of trees that and I refer to this road as tree Break Alley. I give everything names up there, and Treebreak Alley is called Treebreak Alley because it's just inundated with impossible, bizarre arches and tree breaks, and they're just everywhere. I've never seen anything like it. I've never seen another researcher show anything like what's going on in Treebreak Galley. They're just they're everywhere. It's like it's like they're trying to show off to the world, like we're here.

27:54 It's so bizarre. But anyway, so we're driving through Treebreak Galley and we're heading to the viewpoint where I had my first sight because I wanted to go there. It was the one year to the day and almost to the damn hour, really, and we're headed there just to hang out and you know, glass the valley and see if we can see another sasquat and I see something in the road and it catches my eye and I stop and I ask my wife what is that in the road, And she's like, I don't know what's in the road, Like why are you asking me? And so I get out. In the middle of the road was a giant ball of this hair. And this hair.

28:35 Is oh my goodness. Now, and this is this is about fifty percent of it right here. It was huge. I mean, it looked like a giant wig in the road, just in the middle of the gravel road, the most unlikeliest of places where you'd find hair like this. And I separated a lot of the hair. And I used to have This was a baggie full of locks, like big long locks, and it has all these different colors, these these grays and browns. But my kitten my young kitten got a hold of this bag and shredded it and messed the locks all up, and so this used to be my bag of locks and now it's just another bag of hair.

29:25 But uh, it was almost like the hair was left there like intentionally. For me, it was just so weird, so unlikely to be right there in the middle of my research area as I'm driving up for my you know, one year anniversary sighting thing. And so this was a pretty interesting find. And I have been pursuing answers to this hair as much as I can. I have samples with NCSU, I sent samples to Melbow Ketchum I I'm waiting for answers, and it's a slow process getting answers from these people. But I've also had a lot of microscopic assessment done on it, and I've had a lot of weird mixed reviews on it, very weird mixed reviews and difference of opinions. I had a Sasquatch museum look at this stuff and try to tell me that it was synthetic hair, and I'm like, it's not synthetic hair.

30:29 And I had to show him, look, there's a root attached to this one and he changes mind and go, Okay, yeah, it's not synthetic, but it's been dyed. Then he told me it had been dyed. I'd already had enough people look at it to confirm, yes, it's natural hair. And but that's just to illustrate how weird this hair is. How everybody is telling me something different. And I've had some researchers tell me, oh, it can't be sasquatch hair because it ha's a medula, and catch him told me that that's total be us, that sasquatchair has a medulla. And I think I've actually gotten to the bottom of how the no medulla and sasquatchair. Myth came about working with this guy Brian from Red Dirt Cryptid.

31:19 I don't know if you know any Oh, yeah, Brian Terrell, great guy, Yeah yeah. Super cool guy. Yeah. He was looking at this stuff and I sent him some and he was super excited. He didn't have a medulla, you know, he was looking at it and he's like, it has all the markers. He said, it's the best sample he'd ever had at that point. That's what he said. And he was very excited about it. But then somebody told him, well, if you don't glue the slide together, you can get a false read. So you're supposed to put some kind of glue or hairspray or something in the slide to glue it together. And once he glued it together and then re examined it, he found that it did have a medulla.

32:05 And so who's to say that the no medulla and the sasquatch hair myth didn't start from somebody only having one or two hairs wanting to look at him in a magnifying glass, not wanting to permanently glue them into a slide, and then looking at him and saying, oh, there's no medulla there, because apparently, if you don't glue it together, you will get the hair to not have a medulla, over and over and over again. And so it's just a theory I have that the whole no medulla thing started from that very thing. And like I said, Melviketchum told me immediately, sasquatch hair has a medulla. That is not accurate. People that say that are misinformed. And so you can find a medulla in the hair. Some has a very very minute medulla. Some you can see the medulla more than others. But most people don't have the volume of hair that I have to actually look at all these different colors. Some are brown, some are clear, some are black. And so I'm just I'm waiting on answers for the from the hair. It's uh wow, it's something I'm pretty eager about. It's I just I've sent messages to like Darby only one time. I've messaged him once and said, hey, you told me to be patient.

33:22 I haven't heard from you. It's been eight months. Is there anything to report. Oh no, we had to move to a new lab. And and but and I have the same thing with Melville. I've been trying to get some kind of answer, and it's just be patient, be patient. We don't want to rush these things. But the good thing is both of them told me, if what you send me is junk, if it's you know, horse hair, if it's this, if it's that, you'll know right away. And and so I haven't got that, and like nobody's got hold of me and said, oh no, we know it's it's this or that, you know, And so that is a good sign. And I'm just, you know, I have to be patient and just see. But I very want to know what it is. And so back to that trip with my wife and kids. On that same trip that we were in my campsite base camp and there was a knock. That was the first time I'd ever heard a knock, and that was pretty cool. My kids are right there and we heard this tree just crack through the woods while we're sitting there. Broad daylight even too. And on the right home from that trip, I pulled some trail camp chips and found some very weird stuff on these trail camps. I had a daytime capture of a white blob of light in the sunny,

34:52 bright sunny day, a white blob of light moving through the trees. And it was three or four shots of this thing, and it changes sort of shape for each picture. It's sort of a long rectangle and it's sort of blob like, and then it's sort of transparent like. But as it's moving through the shots, in one of the shots, there's an intent on the ground of a footprint, at least that's what it looks like. It's hard to make sense of it, but it's moving through white blob, white blob and this weird thing on the ground, and so that was another sort of kind of reaffirming to me the whole woo paranormal side of this thing, like there really is something to it. It's obviously I can't say that this object is a sasquatch. But where I set the camera up is underneath these two amazing arches. And I talked about the arches in your last interview, but the arches are a big part of my research because I find them everywhere, and they're big, big evergreen trees that have been bent and then wedged and hooked against neighboring trees. And not only it hooked. Some of them are just hooked, but a lot of them have been scraped and scraped and scraped where each side of the tree are just worn away, where that would have taken repeated, I mean hundreds over and over and over and over again to rub these notches into the trees which they'll

36:23 use to hook and get the tree to hold that form. And so it was I had found these two arches that were right by each other, and I had put this trail cam underneath them, and that's where I got this orb like thing in broad daylight. And the thing about that one is when you're out on a bright sunny day and you have a lantern going. You can barely even tell that the lantern's on amidst the sunlight, because sunlight is so bright it overrides, you know, flashlights, you can't even tell they're on. And so for this blob of white light to be so visible that you can see it in the sunlight, and you can see it, and it triggered the motion camera like that's significant. That's something that isn't just some weird, you know, glare on the camera lens, like it is something physically moving through the trees. And that same trail cam underneath those arches later captured quite a few pictures. I believe there was like seven of them. I can't remember, but quite a few.

37:32 It's as this little buck is running through the shot. It's a deer. It triggered all these pictures. And as these pictures were going on, it's capturing these beams of light that they're just so bizarre. I don't even know how to describe them. And people have tried to say, oh, that's rain drow I know what rain drops look like. At one point in time, I had twenty something trail cams out. I look at trailcam, but it's gone. I know all of the common anomalies of spiderwebs and rain drops and whatever. These beams are, I don't know, but beams of light moving through the trees, and each picture they're kind of in this different angle. Some of them are coming straight down that the next shot they're all coming kind of sideways, and it just something very weird.

38:22 And then that same trail cam later on captured it's a bipedal looking figure, but it's it's like see through, you can't really make it out very clear, and it's there for three shots, but each shot it's slightly different. It distorts just a little bit, but it doesn't move much, just slight changes in its figure, and then it's just gone, disappears and there's this distorted sort of blob that people have tried to tell me that's moisture on the camera lens. It's not. That's another thing I'm very familiar with. I get moisture on the camera all the time. So there were three shots of the bipedal figure and then it just vanishes. And that doesn't make sense because if you have something triggering your trail cam and it moves around it's in all the shots moving around, you know, like something will enter a shot and then it'll be here, and then it'll be here, and then it'll be here and then it's gone. For something to be in the middle of your shot and then just disappear is very strange, at least for my trail cams, because they typically show where they disappear to. So the thing disappears and then this blob of like distortion kind of swirls a little bit in each picture. There's four more pictures of this swirling blob that doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

39:52 And all of these are captured on the same trail cam, which is an old, outdated tra a really old trail cam. It doesn't even have the option for audio. It's picture only. And a strange, creepy coincidence. When I came to check this trail cam at a later time, I pulled the chip out and I put the chip in the reader, and I'm like trying to make sense of these pictures because they're all messed up, and I'm like, what is going on here? This was in midsummer, really early in the summer for spiders to make eggs at least around my house. Spiders tend to make their eggs towards the end of the summer. But a spider had came into that trail cam and laid an egg right on top of the lens, so it completely had blocked the shot.

40:49 And it's just I mean, what are the odds of that one? Out of twenty trail cams at the time, I think I had like sixteen or seventeen going. But the one trail it's catching all this interesting stuff gets a spider egg, you know what I mean. Just a weird coincidence, right right. Are any of these photos in your videos on your channel? Yes, yes, all of them are. Yeah, okay, And I'm actually getting ready to make a video to bring all of my trail cam anomalies onto one video and talk about them a little bit further because I have a different site that the same kind of thing has happened sort of. I call it five Arch, and it's an area where I found five arches that were just phenomenal arches, and all those arches are broke off now and gone.

41:44 So I'm watching arches get formed and then I come back and they're broken and gone, and so I'm trying to make sense of why they're creating them and breaking them. And I have some theories on that, but nothing in stone. And so I set up some cameras at five Arch and I captured in this camera it was the same thing, an old, dated picture, only trail cam. And I always have two trail cams. I always have a nice one and a cheap one. I mean not always a nice and a cheap but I try to always put two trail cams in each location, and I try to have them kind of facing each other but catching different patches of the forest. That way, if something comes in a mess with a trail cam, it gets captured by it.

42:27 But so I captured another image of this blurry, see through like thing that just moves across the trail cam, and it's three or four shots as well, and it's moving through the ferns. And everybody said, oh, it's a deer, it's a deer. It's not a deer, because I know what deer look like, and and deer can't move through the ferns without pushing through the ferns. None of the ferns have moved in this picture. And it's about the size of a deer, and it moves through like a deer, but it it completely glides across the top of the ferns and you can see through it. You can only see little kind of angles of it. But if that was a deer, it's quarter, you know, haunches would have blocked the ferns. And yet you can look right through this thing and see the ferns. So I know it's not a deer. But you know, people have said that, oh, it's a deer. And once again it's the same exact model of this cheap, weird trailcam that keeps capturing this stuff.

43:29 And that took place in five Arch. And I had told you about Colin who came down from Mexico and he and I were out in five Arch looking around and we had a video going and I'm telling him about the arches and I accidentally I didn't even see this till later, till the video is on my channel, But there's this shot and this was on the flash of Beauty Interview at the very end of it. I don't know if you saw that or not. I did see that, and that was very interesting, Hugh. Yeah, the last thing at the very end. Yeah, and that was a total accident. And that took place right in five Archs, underneath the arches, right where this thing was captured on my trail cam, and it looks like a task watch stepping behind the tree as I panned the camera over. And I think what happened was I was probably moving the camera like this, and I was looking like that, talking to Colin and not paying attention to the screen, because I do that a lot when I'm filming. You know, I'm not really looking at the screen because I don't know how I would have missed that.

44:40 And it got missed in editing as well. But when I edit stuff, I have somebody else do my editing, and I'm just kind of there with him, kind of telling him how I want things to go, And so it didn't surprise me that it got missed in editing. Really sickens me that I missed it in the moment while I was filming it. But that area of five Arch, after that happened, whatever that thing was, the sasquatch stepped behind the tree and disappeared. Colin and I went up to the top of there just to look around, and we found footprints up there in the moss. We talked about them. I think those are in the footprints we found are in one of my videos. But then we go off in a slightly different direction. I tell them like, this is a patch of woods I've never been in before.

45:26 And that's when I started finding this new phenomenon that has me baffled. Is these trees growing in a spiral. And these are conifer trees, evergreen trees. They don't grow spiral like, they grow like a pole. They turned into lumber, and I'm finding so many of these now, all in this area, right on the edge of five Arch where somehow, if this is manipulation, which I strongly believe it is, you're talking decades of repeated effort to bend and twist and bend and twist and bend and twist to get big, big, strong trees just twist and swirl like that. It's the most bizarre thing on my most recent trip up there.

46:19 I just went up recently Easter weekend just to check some trail cams. I was kind of in and out, and sure enough I found a new one, another big, old, huge swirled tree. And it's actually I made a YouTube short it's on my channel about that tree. But it's just the wonders of the trees, like what is going on? What is the sheer volume of the tree anomalies in this area is so just insane. And I've been all over since I started researching trying to find something similar to this. I spent two days in the bush of Packwood, Washington. I went through Yellowston Park. I've been call around.

47:00 I've been you know, up all over by Mount Adams, multiple states, and I actually did it. Took a trip to Costa Rica too, since I got into this research. That was a family vacation have been planned for years. It wasn't a research trip, but I mean, just analyzing trees everywhere I go, I've never found anywhere that compares to just the sheer volume of anomalies of the trees that's going on in this area. And then another new anomaly that I'm finding is when I first found those upside down trees in the meadow long ago.

47:41 That was a huge moment for me. That was early in my research. And I found this meadow full of upside down trees. There's actually two meadows that are connected to each other, full of these logs that are impaled into the ground. There's you know, like a dozen fifteen of them in this open field, and so I never expected to find them anywhere other than there. And now all across my research area, in the forests, in the trees, all over everywhere I go. Now, something has been coming in there, picking up logs and impaling them in the ground. And I have a video called you Know, hundreds of upside Down Trees that talks about this new phenomenon that's all going on. I mean, finding them everywhere. And I can't believe for a second that I had just missed all of these impaled logs in the first year of doing this research. So I have to assume that these are all new things that have kind of started happening.

48:39 And I made a video about why I think that they're impaling these into the ground, Why I think they would go to the effort, because not only are they impaling them in the ground, but they're topping. That's another phenomenon in my research area is I'm like, I live in an area right now where I can see conifer trees in every direction. I mean, I'm on a third story room in my house right now, and I healthy green conifers do not lose their top. I mean Occasionally lightning will top one. Occasionally a sickness will hit a tree, and once they're sick and dead and brittle, they can break. But green evergreen trees, healthy conifer trees do not lose their top. It's very rare, but in my research area they are everywhere. Everywhere you go. Topless trees, topless trees, topless trees. So that was a phenomenon that I was trying to make sense of early on. And now those tree tops I'm finding them picked up and stabbed into the ground. You know, some are this big, you know.

49:42 Go ahead, Sorry, sorry, Hugh, I that just made okay, so this is going to blow your mind. Check this out. So I spent some time in July of twenty twenty five in Mount Hood National Forest. We found the same thing where where tops of pine trees had been broken off and then slammed into the ground. In this area where we found footprints and handprints. It's the same thing, dude, I'm glad. Yeah, yeah, And it's weird because some of them are stabbed into the ground. The way in which if a tree top broke breaks off and gravity takes control of that tree, the fatter, heavy year end can fall like a lawn dart and stab into the ground. You know, I'm a I'm a I do tree removal for a living, and you can pull up YouTube videos where people will cut a tree top and it will fall and stab into the ground like a dart, So it can happen, right, But what I'm finding is that they're taking these trees and stabbing them into the ground the wrong way. So some of them are stabbed the fat end down, and some of them are stabbed the skinny ending. And you go up and you push on them, and they just wabble back and and they're just stabbed in the ground.

51:01 Some are this big, some are this big. I mean I recently found the biggest one I've ever found, and it was a log. I mean it stabbed into the ground going that way. And then another log about this big, stabbed into the ground going that way and it creates a V. And that was a new one. But that's the second one that I have found that I call V sites where these two logs come in and form these v's. And I found you know, X structures and all the normal stuff, But this new phenomenon of these impaled logs, it just blows my mind, the energy, the effort to top these trees then to stab them into the ground. And so Colin and I when we were in Dead Canyon. Dead canyon is the name of a canyon.

51:48 And I hope we have time I can tell you about this. But we found a really old, rotted, impaled log stabbed into the ground. It'd been there a long time. We broke that thing open just to see and there were grubs and bugs everywhere. And so I am confident. And this isn't a video I made called it says Sasquatch grub farm across the front of the screen the thumbnail. That's why I think they're doing this. I think they go around and they stab these into the ground because in the winter, when it gets really cold, if grubs have inundated a log that's on the surface of the dirt, they can die if it gets cold enough, and so grubs have to migrate underground to stay warm, to get out of the harsh cold of the winter. So when you stab these things deep into the ground, you are creating the most ideal habitat for wood eating insects, for grubs, and I have documented that grubs is a major food source for sasquats many times in my research area because my very first sighting the sasquatch hunkered down at a stump and spent like an hour at a stump, and when on trips later on, I started examining the stumps and stumps have all been shredded and tore apart and looked for for grubs. And so when you take a broken tree top, you're taking the youngest, softest part of

53:21 the tree, and it's gonna rot extra quick because it's young, it's soft wood. You stab it into the ground, you're accelerating the rot. And so I fully believe that that's what these are for. They have basically built a farm across my research area for grubs, and it'll take you know, a year or two before these are all matured and rotten and full of grubs. Some will rot quicker, and all they gotta do is just walk around and find them and pull them out. Break the rotten end off that's been in the mud. They can probably stab it right back into the same hole and it'll continue to rot, going up and up and up. I could be wrong, but that is my theory on why they're doing it, and I've been told Oh, they symbolize this, and they symbolize that. I think that's all BS because there's no rhyme or reason to how they're doing it. Some are upside down, some aren't upside down. Some are big, some are little, and they're just they're everywhere across my research area.

54:19 And there's been a series of very weird things that have happened to me, and I want to talk about these because it actually comes into the most significant experience I've had as a researcher up there, and this was on my last trip with Colin from Mexico. That's happened, but it's two incidents that both tie in together, and so on a previous trip before Colin, I was up there with my friend Joe, good buddy of mine, he's in a few of my videos. We go into Dead Canyon and we do a lot of aggat hunting and stuff and Dead Canyon, and a lot of times there's too many agots to take them out. They're just you can't.

55:03 You put twenty thirty pounds on your back and that's all you're getting out because you got to climb a canyon wall to get out of there. So I will take these agates, and I will set them up on top of boulders so they're easy to find on my next trip. Well, now everywhere I go, something has gone in there, picked up agots and set them up on boulders. Now, prior to me going into these canyons looking for agates, I had never found an agate up on top of a boulder. Ever, I started doing that, and now I'm finding it everywhere I go. Areas I've never rocked hunted in agots have been placed on top of boulders and are picked up and set on top of walks, and so I the agots in the crystals of that region are what brought me there. And when you look back on the histories of the Native Americans, they used to go to war with other tribes over who could claim certain areas where they were the right kind of rocks for making tools. Now agots break them apart, shatter them.

56:16 It's a glass. It's just like obsidian. It's harder to work than obsidian, but phenomenally sharp. And a lot of this rock that we're getting is actual big, beautiful chunks of chirt, which chirt is phenomenal for making tools and weapons and so on. This trip into Dead Canyon with Colin, I come across this site and it's in the gravel bed on the edge of the river, and we find what appeared to be something had picked up a big chunk of calcedony, which is it's basically an agate, but a rock countered all calceadonis, not an aggate, but they're all agates. To me. It's a big chunk of calcedonia and it had been shattered in. Pieces of this agot was everywhere, and it looked identical to what you would find if somebody was flint napping and making tools. And I have a chunk of it right here.

57:10 That's awesome, Hugh, that is so cool. This is the calcedoni. This is razor sharp rock. I mean this, I could take this right now, and I could carve wood, I could cut bone, I could. I mean, this is just a chunk that was left behind. And nobody will ever convince me that this was anything other than evidence of tool making. And also in the middle of where all these shards of razor sharp pieces of calcedonia were strewn about was footprints in the gravel. Now I didn't spot those footprints because I was just enamored by the shattered aggt. It wasn't until I got home.

57:53 I was looking at the video and I'm like, right there in the gravel, there's a big old footprint there and a potential footprint there, and so that was awesome. That was a very incredible find. And then Call and I continue on our walk and we're heading up towards my trail cam. Now, this trail camp's deep and dead canyon. Never once has any human being ever appeared on any trail cams in this canyon. Never one time. And I take that back. One time during a flood stage, a kayak did come down the river and just blew by.

58:34 That's the only person that's ever appeared in years of these trail cams being up there. So if people say, oh, how do you know a rock counter didn't go down there and shatter that rock, because they cannot get in and out of this canyon without being caught on my trail camp. So I know a person didn't go down there and shatter this rock. So we're going upstream. We just found this rock, and we had just found a bunch of phenomenally weird stuff over on the other edge of this meadow where all these logs are impaled in the ground, and so we're all pretty stoked, but pretty nervous. Dead canyon gives you this creepy vibe like you're trespassing on somebody's home turf. We're getting up to where this trail cam's at and I needed to cross the river to check the trail cam. And this was October, so real cold water. I get across, I'm going to check my trail cam, and laying on the ground underneath that trail cam in the path. This is the only way you can get to this trail cam because it's on the other side of the river, and this is the only river crossing that you can use where you don't have to swim, and so there's no way to get to my trail cam without going through this path that I was on. Right in the middle of the path, my trail cam's up in a tree branch. Up Here on the ground below my trail cam is a chinook salmon freshly killed, had its head ripped off. Laying on the ground is a chinook salmon. Laying next to its body is the head of the chinook salmon. So it

1:00:05 freaked me out because I thought, oh, this could have been at like a bear. This could have been an animal that was getting ready to eat this fish, and I spooped them, and so I was kind of nervous about everything. So I took a bunch of video of this fish and got the jail cram chip got out of there. It didn't dawn on me till I was leaving there. The only animal on earth that actually catches a fish and beheads it is us. Like a bear. For example, a bear takes a fish and bites its stomach, eats the stomach, eats the eggs. Otters went like otters will catch fish and maybe chew on their head or bite their head. I don't think I am physically strong enough where I could take an eight nine, maybe ten pounds hinook and stick my hands in the gills and pull that head off, don't I don't think I could.

1:01:01 You have to be insanely strong to do that. And when you look at this fish, and it's on one of my videos, you can see where all of the meat is smashed exactly how they had to do it. It would have been a hand in the gills going that way, a hand in the gills going that way, and had to pop that thing's head off, all the meat is smashed on the one side, and the spine of the fish is sticking out that far, and it so it's hard to remember everything, and so I jump all over the place. But leaving food for these beings is something I do. I've left bags of M and m's, I've left peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. I've left hard boiled eggs. I've left tons of fruit. I mean, I've left so much fruit for these guys. But for some reason, I had stopped doing it. I hadn't done it in a long time, and so I am convinced, I don't even want to say I suspect. I'm convinced that that was a fish they captured and killed put there for me, and for me that was so so massively huge, because if I'm right, that's like them saying I want to be friends, or thanks for the food, or that's something huge that can potentially I can potentially grow upon. And it could be a warning we don't like it down here.

1:02:26 We might be ahead. Yeah, I mean it could be, but I didn't take it that way, especially because of all the times they've been in my campsite and been so close to me. But I will say that the vocalization sound that has been blasted at me on those two occasions, it's not a very warm and fuzzy sound. It doesn't sound inviting, it doesn't sound friendly. But who's to say, you know, I know how to interpret the way they make sounds. You know, I don't know. But that the fishes is extra important because prior to that fish being discovered, I was down there with my buddy Joe.

1:03:10 We were rock hounding U and jaskquatch him. But Joe's really big into rocks, so he was looking at all the rocks and I was down there just doing my research. And we get down to the very area where now they have set all these agates up on boulders for me, I think, And there Joey found He was the first one to find it, but he found he found this. This was a bull elk, and this was dead. They're the whole body to this bull was there. But something had taken all of the leg bones from this thing, moved them and piled them up on an embankment. So all of the big, fat, heavy bones had been pulled away from the ribs and the spinal cord and piled up here on the embankment, which is not the behavior of predators or scavengers. You know, they don't organize and stort their bones. And where this was left was right across the river from my trail camp, where if this had just been moved over like fifteen feet, it would have been directly in the shot of my trail camp.

1:04:22 But it was right on the edge of a trail cam, right where it couldn't film anything, just like the fish was left right on the edge of right out of filming range of my trail camp. And so I've always wondered if that whole elk scene was there to torment me, a toy with me, like, hey, you're trying to get footage of us. You know, we harvested in an elk right here, right next to your trail cam. And another weird thing about that ilk was something had broke a ribbone off of the rib cage, taken that rib bone and stuck it in the moss on this big, huge boulder, this giant boulder. So as you come down the river, you see this what looked like a marker, a bone marker, stuck in the moss. And I mean what animals have fingers in dexterity to break a bone and put it in the moss like that. I mean a raccoon maybe, but they're not gonna do that, you know, they don't.

1:05:27 I don't know if they'd be strong enough to snap this bull's rib bone off the rib cage or not. But it is just really all that all that's taken place right there. And so after the ilk thing was found, I got my chip out of that trail cam and I was super excited, and I'm like, oh, there's gonna be answers. I'm gonna find out about this elk. And I had about eleven months, ten months of footage of this trail cam. And when I went through that trail cam footage, there was leaves that had shook and gave me. I forget five thousand and six thousand pictures over the ten months that was down there. There is no bears that went in that canyon, not one time. No cats that went in that canyon. Now, I get cats all the time on my trail camp cos I've only actually got one cougar. I get they're either lynxes, they're bobcats all the time. I'm not good at telling them apart.

1:06:28 They're if they're bobcats, are really big bobcats. And but for to go ten months in them, says Canyon Bottom, where there's so much life in there. Not a single bear, not a single elk, not a single cougar, not a single coyote, not a single raccoon, not a single porcupine. The only thing that this trail can picked up was a couple of deer wandered through there, and deer, you know, deer, dumb they And so what I think is that the local wildlife and that area, no, do not go in that canyon that is claimed occupied territory. And that's the same canyon where I found the potential tool making. The elk was slaughtered, the fish was beheaded, where I had a vocalization blasted at me. I'm sure I'm leaving stuff out.

1:07:19 There's been a lot of repeated things at Dead Canyon. It's a major, major important spot, and it's so beautiful down there, so healthy, so so much grass, and in schools of fish that come up this river. I have video footage of that where you can just see I always thought they were steelhead, but after having one of them captured and left for me, it was a chinook salmon. But this is so close to the ocean, it's never been altered from the dams, and so you still have wild runs of fish running through there all throughout the year. And so the only animals in almost a year of footage down there was bird and just a couple of deer that wandered through there. And that's not normal for my trail cams in that area, especially all along a river, because the animals go to the river, they need the river, and so I'm convinced. And so that's how it became called Dead Canyon was because of that, the elk carcass, and then the lack of wildlife that is in there, and so we just named it dead Canyon because there's no wildlife in there, and it's it's an area that I I think I'm trespassing when I go in it, because it's a big gray area of what is or isn't technically owned by logging corporations or what. And so it's also an area that they'll never log because it's all these canyons are protected by from logging because you

1:08:52 can't log within so many hundreds of yards with the river and stuff like that. So it's it's the very protected area and just there's there's there's gonna be a lot going on in Dead Canyon in the coming future trips, because it's going to become one of my main focus points. Really. I mean I have a few of them. I have Dead Canyon, I have five Arch Tree Break Galley, I have all these areas. But but Dead Canyon to me is where I think they're at, like where where I think they spend a lot of time in that canyon. And I mean I would be focusing there if I was if I was in your if I was in your shoes with all that info, I would definitely be focusing there one hundred percent, like the most.

1:09:37 Yeah. Yeah, it's there's so many places up there that are just so amazing. Like if you ever can come out for a trip, man, I would be able to take you into my research area and and not tell you anything. At a certain point, I'd say, okay, man, you pick a direction, just pick a direction, and and I'd say we'll go that direction, and where you are going to run into an upside down tree, an arch something. I mean, it's just it's just how it is up there. But What's what's really weird is I went out with my dad a few months ago to the neighboring mountain. We spent all day driving around on this particular mountain.

1:10:18 Couldn't find a single top tree, couldn't find a single anything. And so it's there's something special about this particular area. I think it has. Maybe it has something to do with the agates the rocks, because if they ever need a sharp edge, a sharp blade, they can just shat our rock. And they got one in their hand. They don't have to keep it on them, they can toss it aside. They'll find another one whenever, you know. And so maybe it has something to do with the tool making the rocks. But I think there's something more like spiritually magical, something's going on in there for all of the anomalies. I don't know if you've ever seen any of the twisted trees, the braided trees. Have you seen any those videos?

1:11:01 I mean, I've seen tree twist myself in mount Hood National Forest and it is just wild what it blows you away. Yeah, And to find maybe like a dozen of them in the same five acre patch of trees with all the arches and all the I mean just there are so much you know, it's this area is so special. I wish I could bring more people out there and show people and and someday I I will maybe provide a service where I take people out and show them all this stuff in person and see if we can have interactions and stuff like that. And there's there's there's there's a lot more stories I could tell to you.

1:11:47 I don't know how long you like these interviews to go, but I mean, that's that's a pretty good summary of, you know, some of the bigger things that have happened since we talked last. Yeah, I think this is a it's a good length for an update. But my goodness, dude, you have really been getting into it. And the thing I love now is that, you know, when we last talked, you were just getting into it. You're like, I remember I spent some time with you, Like you're like, I don't know set up a YouTube channel. I don't know how to do that. And now like you're you're totally into it. You've got the help that you need, and you're you're putting up some solid videos so people can go over there and actually, you know, watch these videos. You got up and see what it is that you know you're actually getting into, which is solid. So definitely, you know, listeners, you want to go over to Northwest Cete Quest. I'll have it linked in the show notes description. Subscribe over there and you can check out for yourself what Hugh has been talking about today.

1:12:48 Yeah, please do. Yeah, it's a lot of work running a YouTube channel, especially I'm so horrible with computers, but I'm getting a little better. I have a buddy who helped me. I pay him, you know, I pay him for all of his service, but he gives me a good deal. And yeah, I'm trying to be more regular with the videos. It's real hit and miss, and I haven't done a big mission in a while. I really I need to get up there. My next trip up there, I want to spend like ten days up there. And I am convinced that they are, in their weird way reaching out communicating. I mean, the footprints in my campsite, I think that was intentional. I think that was a gift.

1:13:31 The agates on the rocks, the fish, that's intentional. That's gifts. I don't know if they're mimicking me with the agates or or helping me find them. I don't know. There's one last thing I want to share with you. Okay, do you know what this is? Oh jeez, here we go. Yes, that's a show fire horn, right, Hugh, what are you doing? So? I've had this for like fifteen years. Mine gave me this. I didn't know anything about it being a show far horn man. And I used to play the trumpet as a kid, So I can blow the hell out of this thing, and I can hit all the notes, I can do whatever. And in our first interview I didn't tell you about and I'll make this short, but the whole Sasquatch thing sort of in a way started in my neighborhood right here, where I blow this horn from time to time just to annoying my neighbors. I had no clue what it was. I saw a video and found out what it was and was like, what, I blow that thing all the time. It was a flash of beauty episode that taught me what this is.

1:14:38 But in my neighborhood, I was walking with my dog up a hill not far just quarter mile if from my house, in the middle of the night, eleven o'clock at night. I found a deer laying in the grass that had been mutilated to all hell. Every organ had been ripped out of it, front legs were ripped clean off, gone, and it was just laying there. My dog found it in the dark. And now I don't know. We don't have couvers embarras. I live in a housing development. I mean, we're on the edge of a lot of wilderness area. But we see deer in the neighborhood, but we don't see predators in the neighborhood. So it is a very startling thing to find at eleven o'clock at night. Unfortunately, I couldn't report it. I couldn't do anything because we were catching a flight to Mexico and just like we were flying out at midnight, or we had to be at the airport at midnight, and this was eleven o'clock at night. He's taking my dog on a quick walk because the house sitter dog sitter was coming to take over so we could leave when I found the deer, and so I wanted to bring this up because if it's true that this is a magical horn that can summon Deathwatch, and you know, blah blah blah, I am going to be taking this out in my research area.

1:15:54 And below, Oh you are, I am. Yes, I don't know when and if I shouldn't say if. When I do, I'm gonna live stream it, and I don't have live stream capability out there yet because it's it's too remote. You barely get phone service on mountaintops up there. And so eventually I am gonna do a test. I'm gonna go to base camp or maybe Dead Canyon, I don't know, set up shop, and I'm gonna blow the hell out of this thing. And I'm just gonna see if it's true, because I know they're in there, and if this thing really does have the ability to attract them, we're gonna find out. And so, yeah, I just wanted to share this with you because I didn't tell you about the deer in our first interview, because you were the first interview I ever did, right, and I didn't know how many people would hear that interview.

1:16:51 I didn't want my neighbors getting weirded out in like asking me about it. And I guess they should know that there is something at our name that can kill it deer with its bare hands. But yeah, I just didn't tell you about it because I it was kind of weirded out about the whole deer thing, and I hadn't even learned about the show far Horn in that first interview. It was later on when I was getting ready to get to know the Flash of beauty people that I watched some other videos and that's how I found out. And so I found that deer slaughtered deer, and it made me go to Internet and learn about sasquatch and dog man and just question like was it a dog man? Was it a sasquatch that killed this deer in my neighborhood. And so that was going on in my head prior to my very first siding that took place on the mountain, and I was still on the fence like is this all bs? Like do these things really exist? And so part of me wonders if if that dead deer was some sort of gift, you know, to get my attention or I don't know, I don't know, or warning or I don't know. And since then, there's been some other weird things that have happened around my house that I mean, I don't know how much more time you want to give me, but I guess I can make a quick little story I'll keep it short, but I have found these sticks laid out like runic symbols on the benches by my house, and I have

1:18:24 a picture of this, and I didn't know what to make of them, because I thought maybe the kids in the neighborhood could have made them. But they seem a little too creative for the kids in the neighborhood. They look like runic ruins drawn out. Now a new discovery of mine that has me baffled is I got on Google Earth and I wanted to see my research area from Google Earth. So I went to the valley where all the impaled logs are at. And in that valley is two different symbols laid out by logs that look like runic writing, and one is like a triangle with this log that's coming out of it, kind of like what a Q would look like the letter Q, you know, a capitol Q if it was a triangle with a log coming out of it, and it has these double parallel logs right below it. So then you go up to the next meadow where the other impaled trees are, and there is a it's a cross, it's like an X, but it's a long log with another log in the perfect middle of it, but they're a little shorter, but it's like perfect symmetry. And then there's another little log that comes out of it, and the same thing, two double parallel log right below it. Now this is only visible from a satellite. I've walked right across these and had no clue that there was any kind of symbols, runic like symbols. And then it was interesting on Google

1:19:54 Earth because I look up and I see where I had my first sighting, and I knew that this valley was close to Sasquatch of my first sighting, but it was it's only like maybe one hundred and fifty yards from my first sight. So then I went crazy scanning all over trying to see if there's any other logs that are laid out that just coincidentally look like ruins, and I can't find any nothing. I've seen logs everywhere it's logging wilderness, but none that look like runic writing. And then I found on Google Earth, about one hundred and fifty two undred yards from the impaled logs with the ruins, I found what looks like a sasquatch captured by the actual Google Earth satellite right there in my and I could share this with you. Actually, I could show you if you want, on my phone right now.

1:20:46 And I've examined this over and over and over again, and I'm telling you it has this. I mean, it's a satellite from way up in space, but it looked so much like a sasquatch, you know what a sasquatch would look like from I'm you know, zooming in on Google Earth and it's right there, it's right in the area. If this is the Google. Earth, Oh wow, really, oh my goodness. Yeah, And the angle of the sun is is is visible because the neighboring trees, the shadows of the trees. You can see the green and how the sun is shining. That isn't a shadow. That's the actual color of the object because the sun is shining against it. So you know it's what I mean is is that's not a shadow.

1:21:32 That's the color. That's the body of whatever that is. And that's captured by Google Earth just a few hundred yards from my first sighting, just a few hundred yards from the upside down trees. And I'll show you the ruins real quick if if you want me to. So this is one of them. Okay, that's the cross like thing, and those are the two parallel logs. And this is surrounded by impaled trees and paled in the ground. Wow. And then the other one, let me find a good one. Oh, that's not the best one because it doesn't show the parallel logs. But this is the other symbol. And in somewhere over here is these two parallel logs laid out.

1:22:22 And I know it's just a triangle. But the thing is, I have not found anything that resembles these symbols anywhere else, anywhere, any and all over and it just so happens to me that these symbols are in the stain field with the upside down trees, like right there in the heart of all this activity. It's you know, and it could just be a coincidence that logs got laid out that way. But if it was a coincidence, it's a pretty bizarre coincidence because I can't find logs laid out that create anything like that anywhere else, and it's, you know, right there in the upside down tree meadow. And so it's just I don't know, it's weird.

1:23:07 Man, You're getting into some wild stuff. I love it, and I am really curious what's going to happen if you bring that sho far to Dead Canyon. That's that's going to get extremely interesting. So I'll be definitely watching to see what happens there. But do you mind? So first, first off, thank you so much for coming back for sharing your experiences since the last time we talked, and what is can your mind listeners again? Best way that they can keep up to date with what you've got going on and how they is there a way they can even reach out to you if they need to? Yeah, well, Northwest Yeddie quest on YouTube. You know, I don't have a I don't get crazy views, so I respond to my comments. I mean nine out of ten you will get a response from me. And you can find Hugh Night Northwest Yetiquest on Facebook as well. I don't do really anything with my Facebook, but if somebody you know, really wants to talk to me or has questions, you know, I'll probably get back to you. You know, I don't have some crazy following, so I usually get back to people. And I do intend to start putting videos on Facebook and doing more with my Facebook. I just haven't and maybe I will I plan to, but the YouTube channel has been hard enough. So eventually, when I get better with all this tech stuff, I'll probably start branching out more on other platforms. But really, the

1:24:40 best way to get old of me is just comment on one of my YouTube videos and we can go from there. You know. Like I said, I will respond so fantastic. Well, Hugh, thank you so much for coming back on the show. We'll definitely be in touch and we'll have to check in with you in the future. Yeah, for sure, man, I'll let you know if if something interesting comes and hopefully on a next sit down with you, I'll have some hair results to talk about. That's a big thing, and I've been trying to get people to test the DNA on the pine cones. We didn't really get into the pinecones much on this interview, but we talked about them in the last one. In the pine cones are just I'm finding pine cones brought in from a tree that does not well, not cannot grow in my research area. But they're bringing pine cones from far away. And these pine cones always have bite marks, teeth marks in him, so I speculate they're brought in in their mouth and so anyway, Yeah, I haven't had any progress on getting those tested, but I still have the pine cones and hope to get them tested. And we have found more of the pine cones since since the first two that I last interview.

1:25:57 Yeah, oh man, we'll definitely be into Thank. You, Hugh, Yeah, man, thanks for your time.

1:28:27 I want to say something directly to a very specific group of listeners. If you're in the military, any branch or forces, and if you've seen something that no one can explain, or if you're a National park ranger or forestryt worker who's been told to stay quiet, or if you're a pilot who's seen something strange down on the ground, or if you're with the FBI a federal agency, or working intelligence and you stumbled upon something you're not allowed to talk about. And if you're a firefighter, paramedic or search and rescue responder who's heard screams or found tracks that didn't make sense. If you're in the logging industry on a remote oil field, or a trucker with government contracts and you've had something happen that you've never told a soul. And if you're a biologist, a wildlife specialist, or a field researcher under contract who has found evidence you're not allowed to report. If you're a pastor, a missionary, or someone on a spiritual retreat and you saw something that shook your faith, or if you work in the shadows, CIA, NSA, or anything with clearance and you've seen what the public hasn't, then I want to talk to you, even if it's anonymous.
