9
00:00:33.200 --> 00:00:45.200
time so far, so let's get
on with the show. Morning. You're

10
00:00:45.240 --> 00:00:49.679
listening to an episode of Bigfoot Society
recorded more than three years ago. Interviewing

11
00:00:49.719 --> 00:00:54.079
skills in audio quality have improved since
then. Please don't judge the podcast on

12
00:00:54.119 --> 00:00:57.479
this one episode. We'll see you
next week. All right, Well,

13
00:00:57.560 --> 00:01:02.200
welcome back to another episode of the
big Foot Society podcast, and we have

14
00:01:02.439 --> 00:01:10.879
the privilege this time of talking with
mister Shane Coursen. Shane is involved with

15
00:01:11.480 --> 00:01:15.400
all sorts of cool stuff Bigfoot and
I'll have them talk about that in a

16
00:01:15.400 --> 00:01:21.400
minute. But the way that I
picture is doing research into Shane. It's

17
00:01:21.480 --> 00:01:25.879
kind of like if you have the
Marvel Avenger movies and you know Agent Colson

18
00:01:25.959 --> 00:01:29.000
is there at the beginning, and
then when you start to look for Agent

19
00:01:29.040 --> 00:01:32.879
Colson, he's everywhere. So I
mean, you are, you have your

20
00:01:32.879 --> 00:01:38.599
hands and everything, sir, would
you mind going ahead and kind of what's

21
00:01:38.599 --> 00:01:45.640
a brief summary of who you are
and what you've done in the big foot

22
00:01:45.640 --> 00:01:48.599
community over the last few years.
I guess we'll start there. Okay,

23
00:01:48.680 --> 00:01:51.400
Well, I don't claim to have
done anything, but I'll tell you I

24
00:01:51.439 --> 00:01:56.159
was born and raised in Scotland,
had an interesting cryptids as a young in

25
00:01:57.319 --> 00:02:00.599
it was always fascinated with of course
in Scotland and your fascinated with the lock

26
00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:06.599
this monster and Yeddi and other cryptids
that are you know, around the world.

27
00:02:06.799 --> 00:02:09.280
Always fascinated with the subject of sasquatch. Moved over to the States in

28
00:02:09.360 --> 00:02:15.000
ninety three, still fascinated with the
sasquatch phenomena. I really did not start

29
00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:21.800
getting into sasquatch research, or what
I thought was sasquatch research, until about

30
00:02:21.800 --> 00:02:24.319
the ninety seven and that's kind of
when I got my wheels and was able

31
00:02:24.360 --> 00:02:30.759
to travel doing research in southern California
where we moved to around San Bernina Mountain,

32
00:02:31.319 --> 00:02:38.439
Julian area, and then definitely Yosemite
was on my radar for a number

33
00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:43.599
of years. Yosemite was fascinating to
me. Talked to a lot of great

34
00:02:43.680 --> 00:02:49.960
individuals individual with the head encounters,
but I personally never found anything during my

35
00:02:50.039 --> 00:02:53.719
years in California. Eventually moved up
to Oregon. I got Mary, moved

36
00:02:53.800 --> 00:02:57.879
up to Oregon in two thousand and
eight, and that's really where I started

37
00:02:57.960 --> 00:03:04.639
hitting the ground heavy up an again
and had an encounter in twenty eleven that

38
00:03:05.080 --> 00:03:09.680
solidified the existence of Sasquats for me, okay, and from there I realized

39
00:03:09.719 --> 00:03:15.879
that being a one man band,
somebody that is going about their business by

40
00:03:15.919 --> 00:03:20.680
themselves, was not very productive.
I realized that I really wasn't doing research.

41
00:03:20.960 --> 00:03:25.520
I was investigating stuff. I read
every book out there been online.

42
00:03:27.439 --> 00:03:30.560
I really had no context at that
point. I talked a few individuals and

43
00:03:30.759 --> 00:03:38.639
eventually got involved with the Olympic Project
after my encounter and got involved with like

44
00:03:38.680 --> 00:03:46.400
Cliff Barrickman and those individuals very cool
and that's kind of really jumped my research

45
00:03:46.439 --> 00:03:50.560
and joining a group and realizing that
there's more to research than what you think.

46
00:03:50.800 --> 00:03:54.599
And I really wasn't conducting research.
Now I'm now up in Washington State,

47
00:03:57.000 --> 00:04:00.159
up in you know, Western Washington
here where we do a lot of

48
00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:02.560
research and I work. You know, I'm one of the core members of

49
00:04:02.599 --> 00:04:08.639
the Limit Project now and I work
with an amazing and fantastic group of like

50
00:04:08.759 --> 00:04:14.400
minded individuals, both from the layman
world and the academic world. So that's

51
00:04:14.439 --> 00:04:15.839
kind of where I'm at now.
I've been working on a lot of projects.

52
00:04:16.120 --> 00:04:20.040
I've been around the block, and
there's a lot of cool stuff going

53
00:04:20.079 --> 00:04:24.639
on now. There's a lot of
cool stuff that's happened. So I'm very

54
00:04:24.720 --> 00:04:28.399
proud to be working with the individuals
that I work with and collaborating with them.

55
00:04:28.439 --> 00:04:30.680
And you know, I'm always an
optimist. A lot of people get

56
00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:35.000
frustrated in this field. Not me. I see all sorts of opportunities.

57
00:04:35.399 --> 00:04:39.839
Back right before this interview here,
I just got the phone with somebody that's

58
00:04:39.879 --> 00:04:44.560
working on an amazing project, very
scientific project, and so always things going

59
00:04:44.639 --> 00:04:47.319
on behind the scenes. I'm sure
my listeners listen to Bigfoot and Beyond with

60
00:04:47.680 --> 00:04:53.519
Cliff and Bobbo as well. You
had a fantastic episode on that, and

61
00:04:53.720 --> 00:04:59.680
you've referenced something that I wanted to
ask you. If you had been in

62
00:04:59.720 --> 00:05:02.680
the them, I would have asked
you right there. So you mentioned the

63
00:05:02.720 --> 00:05:08.600
Olympic Project, and I believe what
you mentioned was that in the coming year

64
00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:15.199
you would actually be having primatologists coming
to the area. Did I get that

65
00:05:15.279 --> 00:05:21.240
right from the episode or maybe did
I hear that directly? Are you talking

66
00:05:21.279 --> 00:05:25.360
about the nest area? I think
so, yeah, Yeah, we've actually

67
00:05:25.360 --> 00:05:30.079
already had primatologists. Okay, now, yeah, we've had primatologists come out

68
00:05:30.079 --> 00:05:32.360
to this area. We've had bare
biologists come out to this area. We've

69
00:05:32.399 --> 00:05:41.439
had anthropologists, archaeologists, we've had
even zoologists, which was the most recent.

70
00:05:42.399 --> 00:05:45.399
Two individuals came out from a certain
zoo here in the United States,

71
00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:47.839
not in Washington, but a certain
zoo. I can't mention it, but

72
00:05:48.560 --> 00:05:54.600
they came out and we really wanted
to get their feedback on, you know,

73
00:05:54.639 --> 00:05:59.439
these nests when it comes to known
primate behavior. These individuals worked directly

74
00:05:59.519 --> 00:06:04.319
with chimpanzees, bonobos. Uh so
we're back gorillas. So we really wanted

75
00:06:04.360 --> 00:06:09.199
to get their feel on on these
nests. Because they're not bairness and they're

76
00:06:09.240 --> 00:06:15.040
not they're definitely nests and they're formulated. Doctor Meldon's talked about these nest loads

77
00:06:15.079 --> 00:06:16.439
of time, so it's Cliff.
They've both been out to the area and

78
00:06:16.519 --> 00:06:19.720
helped us collect sample. So yes, we've brought in a lot of academic

79
00:06:19.759 --> 00:06:23.839
individuals out there because we're not you
know, I'm not a scientist. I'm

80
00:06:23.839 --> 00:06:29.199
not an academic individual. I'm I'm
an explorer. I find stuff, I

81
00:06:29.279 --> 00:06:33.079
collect stuff, and you know,
sometimes I'll visually analyze stuff, but I

82
00:06:33.120 --> 00:06:35.879
have my limits and I recognize those, and so you got to bring in

83
00:06:36.000 --> 00:06:39.680
to people with the right eye.
So yeah, we've done that. Yeah,

84
00:06:39.920 --> 00:06:44.519
very cool, very cool. If
if so, if listeners do not

85
00:06:44.720 --> 00:06:48.800
know the nest we are talking about, of course, so you can fill

86
00:06:48.839 --> 00:06:51.439
in details as we go along,
of course. But there's so you have

87
00:06:51.480 --> 00:06:57.079
access to an area of land where
it had not been touched for was it

88
00:06:57.160 --> 00:07:00.240
forty years? Yeah? Fifty plus
year? Yeah, fifty plus years.

89
00:07:00.279 --> 00:07:06.600
So like a logging company and there's
these nests that were found on there,

90
00:07:06.639 --> 00:07:11.720
and I mean they're big enough for
I believe it was either you a Cliff

91
00:07:11.759 --> 00:07:15.279
said that you could lay down in
the nest and it was quite comfortable,

92
00:07:15.920 --> 00:07:20.279
and man, it's just it's fascinating. There is one part where it's like

93
00:07:20.600 --> 00:07:25.920
you're saying, from one nest you
could see the other nests, and I

94
00:07:25.959 --> 00:07:30.600
thought that that was very fascinating.
Yeah, the the Huckleberry So all these

95
00:07:30.680 --> 00:07:35.480
nests, there's twenty two nests bound
to date, spread along a ridge line

96
00:07:35.759 --> 00:07:41.279
and they're spread out on fingers or
saddles or ridges, depending where you're from

97
00:07:41.319 --> 00:07:44.639
the country. Everybody calls it something
different. But you have a ridge line

98
00:07:45.000 --> 00:07:48.639
with a finger or a ridge or
a saddle coming down and they're spread out

99
00:07:48.759 --> 00:07:56.519
on multiple saddles, fingers, ridges
or and whatnot. And they're they're definitely

100
00:07:56.519 --> 00:08:01.720
formula. They've been constructed intelligently.
They're not some that's been haphazardly put together.

101
00:08:03.240 --> 00:08:05.360
And by what I what I meant
when I said and when I say

102
00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:09.920
that you can see from nest and
nest, well, that's that's on purpose.

103
00:08:09.079 --> 00:08:15.319
The huckerberry branches them in stripped completely
of leaves, whether that was a

104
00:08:15.360 --> 00:08:18.879
food source or on purpose to see
from nest and nest to nest and in

105
00:08:18.959 --> 00:08:24.240
their their very strategically placed these nests. But yeah, you can see every

106
00:08:24.279 --> 00:08:26.639
nest and they range in size from
you know, about three feet to about

107
00:08:26.759 --> 00:08:31.639
nine feet in size and circumference,
so I mean huge, huge, and

108
00:08:31.279 --> 00:08:35.960
we're a foot in depth. I
mean just huge law material. That is

109
00:08:35.120 --> 00:08:41.080
very, very cool. The question
I also thought the other day is so,

110
00:08:41.879 --> 00:08:45.480
uh, of course, right now
we're in the middle of the COVID

111
00:08:45.600 --> 00:08:52.360
nineteen pandemic. How has that affected
the work of the Olympic project tremendously.

112
00:08:52.600 --> 00:08:56.480
Yeah. You know, nobody gets
paid to do sasquatch research. We all

113
00:08:56.519 --> 00:09:01.960
have day jobs, we have families, and so it's really there's a lot

114
00:09:01.000 --> 00:09:05.039
of stuff we can do at home, and fortunately we do have access to

115
00:09:05.559 --> 00:09:09.279
you know, when it comes to
research, we do have access to timberland.

116
00:09:09.360 --> 00:09:11.679
We have gate keys and whatnot,
and that's where we conduct a lot

117
00:09:11.720 --> 00:09:16.240
of our business. But this whole
COVID thing, regardless of would you think

118
00:09:16.279 --> 00:09:20.159
of it and how it's affected you, it's affected everybody economically, socially,

119
00:09:20.600 --> 00:09:24.799
you name it, and so I
can speak for a lot of enthusiasts,

120
00:09:24.799 --> 00:09:28.639
bigfoot researchers, you name it that
it's affected at big time. You can't

121
00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:31.440
get into some areas that you used
to be able to get into legally.

122
00:09:31.559 --> 00:09:35.879
I mean sure, I'm sure people
are sneaking out here in Washington. They

123
00:09:35.919 --> 00:09:41.399
closed down it's opening up May five, all of the trails and parks and

124
00:09:41.440 --> 00:09:46.440
whatnot. But it's affected it tremendously
and what it's really done for the Aliment

125
00:09:46.519 --> 00:09:50.440
project. Recently, kind of jumping
ahead here, we've come across some newer

126
00:09:50.519 --> 00:09:56.480
nests. Finally, after searching for
four years, five years now, we

127
00:09:56.559 --> 00:10:00.559
came across a new nest. I
can't really get into the kills right now,

128
00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:07.519
okay, but a partner of mine
by the name of Todd Hale,

129
00:10:07.720 --> 00:10:11.600
he's a project Mayber. We were
out scouting an area that Derek Randalls and

130
00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:13.679
I had scouted two weeks prior.
While we went back out to this area

131
00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:18.000
and came across something physically making a
nest. Did not see it, but

132
00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:22.480
spooked. It sounded very large song
by pedal and oh it was. It

133
00:10:22.519 --> 00:10:26.519
was quite the experience. And I
won't get into that right now, and

134
00:10:26.519 --> 00:10:30.559
that's some stuff we're working them.
But we did come across a nest in

135
00:10:30.600 --> 00:10:33.559
the making or multiple nests in the
making, and we came across a lot

136
00:10:33.600 --> 00:10:39.440
of other really unique and very cool
tidbits to this that it proved a lot

137
00:10:39.440 --> 00:10:41.919
of things to us. So we
were in the right area, the right

138
00:10:41.960 --> 00:10:46.840
time of year, the white circumstances, and we just got really lucky and

139
00:10:46.919 --> 00:10:50.879
walked upon something making a new nest. But go back to your question,

140
00:10:50.919 --> 00:10:56.919
Well, I have some samples that
I've collected, that we've collected as a

141
00:10:56.919 --> 00:10:58.279
whole, as a one project that
I got. I can't send it anywhere

142
00:10:58.360 --> 00:11:03.120
right now, you know, And
it sucks because some of these samples,

143
00:11:03.480 --> 00:11:09.559
you know, they they go to
junk after a while. It's time sensitive

144
00:11:09.600 --> 00:11:13.279
sort of stuff. And some you
know, you know, we got some

145
00:11:13.320 --> 00:11:16.679
hair samples for example. Some of
that you can visually analyze, but to

146
00:11:16.799 --> 00:11:18.519
do any real work on it.
It's, man, it's really been.

147
00:11:20.320 --> 00:11:22.519
It was just this whole virus is
the worst timing, and we talked about

148
00:11:22.559 --> 00:11:26.559
that as a group, the worst
timing ever. Unfortunate. But upwards and

149
00:11:26.600 --> 00:11:31.080
onwards, you keep plugging away and
we'll see if we anything comes from this.

150
00:11:31.159 --> 00:11:35.960
No promises, no guarantees, but
exciting tells me we're we're doing something

151
00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:39.200
right. Regardless, you can say, regardless of what's making these nests,

152
00:11:39.519 --> 00:11:46.039
we came across whatever was making it
fresh, and that's that's awesome. That

153
00:11:46.039 --> 00:11:50.559
that is really exciting, and maybe
you can start to see a pattern like

154
00:11:50.639 --> 00:11:54.159
Okay, it's this time of year. You know, who knows the data

155
00:11:54.200 --> 00:11:56.240
that you'll get from this like this, that is super exciting. And that's

156
00:11:56.440 --> 00:12:00.919
you said, that's very recent that
that happened. Yeah, this happened back

157
00:12:00.960 --> 00:12:05.519
in February. So, I mean
the reason and cool, The real key

158
00:12:05.559 --> 00:12:11.320
there is that we hypothesize originally that
the older nest that we had we were

159
00:12:11.399 --> 00:12:13.759
led to. We didn't discover the
old old nest. They were discovered originally

160
00:12:13.799 --> 00:12:18.279
by a timber cruiser in a really
remote area doing his job. These areas

161
00:12:18.320 --> 00:12:22.600
aren't places you go hiking in,
you go hunting in, exploring in their

162
00:12:22.639 --> 00:12:26.600
off trail. They're hard to get
to there, it's a nightmare. And

163
00:12:26.679 --> 00:12:28.840
he came across them. Well,
we started to mimic what he was doing

164
00:12:30.840 --> 00:12:35.200
for years and possibly came across some
very very old nest. So ran we're

165
00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:37.799
kind of on the right truck.
Maybe we don't know. And then we

166
00:12:37.919 --> 00:12:41.919
come across this and that was in
the month of February. Again with the

167
00:12:41.960 --> 00:12:45.440
same elements. You got the salmon
come up these creeks, you got a

168
00:12:45.440 --> 00:12:48.679
lot of things going for you.
So you're right, it does add value

169
00:12:48.720 --> 00:12:52.480
to that and it's exciting tells us
we're on the right track. Oh man,

170
00:12:52.559 --> 00:13:00.840
that is that is very cool.
You've also been involved with, yeah,

171
00:13:00.919 --> 00:13:05.759
the Devil's Creek project, and that
was a few years ago where that

172
00:13:05.919 --> 00:13:11.159
where there was a lot of that, you know, those stories going around

173
00:13:11.200 --> 00:13:13.080
and you know what was going on. Would you be able to kind of

174
00:13:15.039 --> 00:13:16.360
you know, there's a chance there
are some listeners that you know, when

175
00:13:16.399 --> 00:13:20.320
I say Devil's Creek, they might
not know what I'm talking about, But

176
00:13:20.639 --> 00:13:24.919
would you be able to maybe give
the summary of that scenario. And then

177
00:13:26.519 --> 00:13:33.159
you'd mentioned before our calls started that
you actually have some some new things that

178
00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:39.000
you can share. Some things you
can't because it's you know, special situation.

179
00:13:39.200 --> 00:13:41.879
But yeah, if you go ahead
with that, that'd be awesome.

180
00:13:41.200 --> 00:13:46.399
Yeah, absolutely so. Several years
ago, Derek Randalls was contacted by an

181
00:13:46.399 --> 00:13:50.840
individual by the name of Donna.
Her husband's name is Greg, up here

182
00:13:50.879 --> 00:13:54.279
in western Washington on the east side
of the Olympics, and they had a

183
00:13:54.279 --> 00:14:00.159
lot of suspicious activity going on on
their property. Well, Donna's husband Reg

184
00:14:00.320 --> 00:14:03.720
he works all around he works all
around the country, he was rarely home,

185
00:14:03.000 --> 00:14:07.879
and Donna had all the stuff,
weird stuff happening, noises, stuff

186
00:14:07.919 --> 00:14:11.759
happening on the property. And her
husband, Greg, when he was home

187
00:14:11.799 --> 00:14:13.799
with witnessed some of this. The
majority seemed to happen when she was home,

188
00:14:13.840 --> 00:14:20.159
but he got to witness a lot
of unique things, especially audio things

189
00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:24.159
they found on their property. And
so they got ahold of Derek Randalls of

190
00:14:24.200 --> 00:14:28.120
the Olympic Project, and he came
out, and Derek's not an audio guy,

191
00:14:28.679 --> 00:14:31.200
and so he got them in touch
with David Ellis of the Olympic Project,

192
00:14:33.000 --> 00:14:35.320
who is like the audio guru.
He looks at audio visually on a

193
00:14:35.519 --> 00:14:41.480
sonic visualizer program and so he's not
just listening because your ear replay tricks on

194
00:14:41.519 --> 00:14:43.600
you. But if you can visually
analyze something and listen to it, it

195
00:14:43.720 --> 00:14:50.960
really adds value. And you can
compare those recorded sounds to the mcaulay Library

196
00:14:50.000 --> 00:14:54.720
of Sounds, for example, so
you have a context and a baseline to

197
00:14:54.759 --> 00:15:00.679
compare unknown sounds, at least unknown
to you. And so David and Donna

198
00:15:00.840 --> 00:15:05.399
really started place, you know,
placing audio recorders on the property. Well,

199
00:15:05.440 --> 00:15:09.279
I mean the backtrack a little bit. Donna had a sighting near her

200
00:15:09.360 --> 00:15:13.480
property, you know, when they
were driving up the road to their property,

201
00:15:13.879 --> 00:15:16.879
just down the road in what it's
been coined Devil's Creek. And let

202
00:15:16.879 --> 00:15:22.039
me clarify something. There is no
Devil's Creek. You know, there's no

203
00:15:22.120 --> 00:15:26.559
Devil's Creek. It was a name
made up by a third party that got

204
00:15:26.600 --> 00:15:31.759
involved. And you know, at
first, a lot of us really didn't

205
00:15:31.799 --> 00:15:37.600
like to name Devil's Creek because there
are Devil's Creeks around the country. We'll

206
00:15:37.639 --> 00:15:45.240
be back with more big Foot Society
after these words from our sponsors. This

207
00:15:45.360 --> 00:15:48.320
was a pseudo name, just a
made up name. We stuck with it

208
00:15:48.399 --> 00:15:52.279
mainly because there was a lot of
individuals trying to find this area and we

209
00:15:52.399 --> 00:15:54.840
wanted to throw them off. They
you know, they were trying to there's

210
00:15:54.840 --> 00:16:00.240
a lot of people out there.
Yeah, they find spots. So we

211
00:16:00.320 --> 00:16:04.320
stuck with Devil's Creek. Not the
greatest name and a little bit disingenuous,

212
00:16:04.320 --> 00:16:08.639
but there was a reason behind that. Now, don't get me wrong,

213
00:16:08.679 --> 00:16:15.919
there's a lot that creek plays a
huge role in this whole experience, this

214
00:16:15.960 --> 00:16:19.519
phenomena. And so after David Elle
started recording stuff, Donna, you know,

215
00:16:19.559 --> 00:16:26.480
previously had her sighting. I started
getting involved in going up there placing

216
00:16:26.519 --> 00:16:30.960
audio and I spent quite a few
nights out there in the property, had

217
00:16:30.000 --> 00:16:33.360
some my own experiences and no sightings, and I do have flear equipment.

218
00:16:33.399 --> 00:16:40.399
I tried very thick, hilly area, and it wasn't like every night,

219
00:16:40.519 --> 00:16:42.919
it was every once in a while. But this one on for several years

220
00:16:44.679 --> 00:16:48.519
and I did get the chance.
Donna called me up one day and said,

221
00:16:48.559 --> 00:16:52.919
hey, basically, backpack a little
bit more. Don and Greg actually

222
00:16:52.919 --> 00:16:56.919
moved out of that house, planning
on renting it or possibly selling it.

223
00:16:57.600 --> 00:17:03.200
They got another house, well not
nearby, but you know, about hours

224
00:17:03.240 --> 00:17:07.400
away from this place. They got
another house, so they're paying two mortgages,

225
00:17:07.720 --> 00:17:10.000
and they wanted to do something with
this property, but they knew that

226
00:17:10.039 --> 00:17:12.000
it was important for research, and
so they weren't ready to give it up.

227
00:17:12.160 --> 00:17:15.039
I mean, God bless him,
because we did record a lot of

228
00:17:15.119 --> 00:17:21.799
neat stuff on the property, experienced
a lot of neat stuff. And as

229
00:17:22.039 --> 00:17:23.640
as they were living on this separate
property, they were trying to fix up

230
00:17:23.680 --> 00:17:27.799
this house and they hired a contractor, a contracting business to come up and

231
00:17:27.839 --> 00:17:33.279
fix one of their like a kind
of a guesthouse slash garage and lo and

232
00:17:33.319 --> 00:17:38.039
behold this guy. This one of
the contract tractors, had a sighting possibly

233
00:17:38.079 --> 00:17:45.279
two sidings in the area, and
he knew nothing about the big foot phenomenon

234
00:17:45.319 --> 00:17:47.880
going on in the property. He
knew nothing about it. I interned the

235
00:17:47.880 --> 00:17:51.039
best part. That's the best part
where he's like, that's a little weird

236
00:17:51.160 --> 00:17:56.480
that all what's gone. That's awes
exactly exactly. You know. We talked

237
00:17:56.480 --> 00:18:00.160
about this on MONSTRAI Tradio, my
podcast, but oka being is that it

238
00:18:00.319 --> 00:18:04.079
was just it was phenomenal, and
you know, and going through this area

239
00:18:04.079 --> 00:18:08.119
over the years and studying this area, some of the elderly neighbors that live

240
00:18:08.640 --> 00:18:14.039
close by. One of the women
who has an apple orchard in this area,

241
00:18:14.880 --> 00:18:17.319
she knew there was sasquat. She
straight up told Donna one day,

242
00:18:17.319 --> 00:18:19.839
without Donna really you know, insinuating
anything. Yeah, it's sad squats it.

243
00:18:19.839 --> 00:18:23.119
It's up in this area. So
there's a lot of collaboration, there,

244
00:18:23.160 --> 00:18:26.839
a lot of ideas there where other
people are aware the other people have

245
00:18:26.880 --> 00:18:30.640
seen something and there's no it's not
that they're having a discussion on sasquatch.

246
00:18:30.680 --> 00:18:37.279
It just pops up and then historically
in this area there's multiple reports on one

247
00:18:37.319 --> 00:18:41.720
project gets taken in personally, I've
had people that are close in the know

248
00:18:41.839 --> 00:18:47.079
of this area that have talked about
other reports from neighbors and people within a

249
00:18:47.160 --> 00:18:49.519
couple of square miles and some of
the lakes in this area, there's reports.

250
00:18:49.559 --> 00:18:56.000
So why why Donna was having this
activity on the property, I don't

251
00:18:56.039 --> 00:18:57.880
know. You know, she was
home alone. Her house was like a

252
00:18:57.880 --> 00:19:00.839
lot of really big windows where something
from the forest line could watch her.

253
00:19:02.279 --> 00:19:06.839
There was apple orchards in the area. A lot of hypothesizing here, but

254
00:19:07.119 --> 00:19:10.279
no doubt she had a lot of
tremendous amount of activity on this property.

255
00:19:10.680 --> 00:19:15.960
Now fast forward, there were some
unfortunate events that took place. Unfortunately,

256
00:19:17.039 --> 00:19:22.559
Donna and Gregg sold the property and
they no longer have access to the property.

257
00:19:22.240 --> 00:19:26.559
There's still stuff going on in some
adjasent areas that I follow, but

258
00:19:26.640 --> 00:19:30.319
it's not an area you can get
intoout getting into trouble, and it's private

259
00:19:30.359 --> 00:19:33.400
property and all that stuff. So
it's a real shame there. But I

260
00:19:33.440 --> 00:19:37.880
guess, you know, paying two
mortgages and just that Donna did not feel

261
00:19:37.880 --> 00:19:44.559
comfortable staying there anymore and they had
to leave. So as far as Devil's

262
00:19:44.559 --> 00:19:48.119
Creeks concerned, there's not really anything
ongoing there now. As far as research,

263
00:19:48.119 --> 00:19:49.880
I'm not being in contact with the
new inhabitants. They're not aware of

264
00:19:49.880 --> 00:19:52.519
any of the stuff that went on
there. I'm not sure if they're experiencing

265
00:19:52.559 --> 00:19:57.400
anything. That's a story in itself. It's like, did they know what

266
00:19:57.440 --> 00:20:03.559
they were getting into buying property?
And like if they're just slowly, I

267
00:20:03.559 --> 00:20:06.440
don't think it would be slow.
I think it would be quick that they

268
00:20:06.440 --> 00:20:10.759
would figure out, like there's something
going on here. You know, who

269
00:20:10.759 --> 00:20:12.279
knows, right, I mean,
all bets are off. I don't know.

270
00:20:12.920 --> 00:20:17.319
I do know that there's still some
occasional activity in that drone area.

271
00:20:17.440 --> 00:20:22.240
Still get reports from that area.
I do still visit some of the adjacent

272
00:20:22.279 --> 00:20:25.799
areas, but it's not you know, as far as the property is concerned,

273
00:20:25.839 --> 00:20:29.599
I don't get I can't get access
to that. And definitely, my

274
00:20:30.480 --> 00:20:33.240
personal opinion, they definitely had sasquatch
stuff going on, I mean no doubt

275
00:20:33.240 --> 00:20:37.960
about it, with the multiple signings
from different individuals and the things that occurred

276
00:20:38.000 --> 00:20:42.359
with me. I've had rocks thrown
and stuff like that, and I couldn't

277
00:20:42.400 --> 00:20:45.400
spend enough time there. I really
wanted to capture something on a fleer and

278
00:20:45.440 --> 00:20:51.119
I spent many nights are by myself
edge the property had you know, a

279
00:20:51.119 --> 00:20:53.039
lot of experiences. I've never got
anything on fleer. The brush is so

280
00:20:53.119 --> 00:20:56.079
thick and whatever it was would never
get close enough for me to get on

281
00:20:56.160 --> 00:21:02.599
flear. So it is what it
is. Yeah, man, thanks for

282
00:21:02.680 --> 00:21:06.799
sharing that. That's that's a really
cool up to add. No idea that

283
00:21:06.799 --> 00:21:08.400
that had. Yeah, that's not
happening to get shared. Yeah, yeah,

284
00:21:08.680 --> 00:21:11.759
Well but I'll tell real quick.
I'll tell you Donn and Gregg.

285
00:21:12.200 --> 00:21:17.559
Sorry to interrupted Donn and Gregor,
two fantastic, phenomenal individuals I have to

286
00:21:17.759 --> 00:21:22.680
the utmost respect from Donna and David
Els did phenomenal audio work on the property.

287
00:21:22.880 --> 00:21:27.440
And I know Donna's very thankful for
David Ellison and Derek and myself,

288
00:21:29.119 --> 00:21:32.680
two stand up individuals that didn't ask
for this, just happened, and they

289
00:21:32.720 --> 00:21:34.720
were willing to go along and do
what they could to a certain extent,

290
00:21:36.640 --> 00:21:41.359
and unfortunately things didn't work out with
their lives and with the property. But

291
00:21:41.519 --> 00:21:48.559
the chance to to get involved with
one of these rare occurrencies where you have

292
00:21:48.720 --> 00:21:52.480
this consistent activity happening on the property, not necessarily year round, but consistently.

293
00:21:53.240 --> 00:21:56.279
That's the sort of places you want
to be in because I'm not a

294
00:21:56.480 --> 00:21:59.440
I'm not, for say, an
ambulance chaser. I don't you know those

295
00:21:59.519 --> 00:22:02.960
days are asked, I don't you
know. Derek Randall's a the Elent Project,

296
00:22:03.039 --> 00:22:06.640
but the co founder of the Elment
Project talking this years ago, you

297
00:22:06.680 --> 00:22:10.599
know heat for years. He's been
in research since nineteen eighty five, and

298
00:22:10.680 --> 00:22:11.720
he used to go to Idaho,
I mean, living in Washington, would

299
00:22:11.720 --> 00:22:15.400
go to Idaho at the drop of
a hat looking for uh, you know,

300
00:22:15.400 --> 00:22:18.640
if there was an account, he
drive out there or wherever. And

301
00:22:18.880 --> 00:22:21.359
you can get a lot of good
information on that. But it's almost you

302
00:22:21.359 --> 00:22:26.359
know that the crime's done and defined
a place where there's a lot of activity

303
00:22:26.359 --> 00:22:29.559
and it's ongoing. That's really not
ambulance chasing. You're trying to do a

304
00:22:29.559 --> 00:22:33.759
conductive study there and figure out what's
going on. So that's that's that's something

305
00:22:33.839 --> 00:22:37.079
I think when those occurrences happen,
and it's happened a few times in my

306
00:22:37.559 --> 00:22:42.240
experience with this research and and some
others, that's the places you really want

307
00:22:42.240 --> 00:22:53.319
to be m very cool, very
cool. I'm gonna throw out a random

308
00:22:53.720 --> 00:22:59.240
left field question just to see if
anything sticks. Doesn't, we'll go to

309
00:22:59.240 --> 00:23:07.319
somewhere else. So you've had all
these you know, you're focused on big

310
00:23:07.359 --> 00:23:14.279
foot. I'm in uh this the
Midwest area. We have a lot of

311
00:23:14.359 --> 00:23:21.680
like things flying around, thunderbirds,
stuff like that. Have you ever run

312
00:23:21.759 --> 00:23:25.720
into any weird stuff? I don't
know. Is that a thing where those

313
00:23:25.839 --> 00:23:32.200
actually will come up in the Pacific
Northwest, like large flying cryptids or anything

314
00:23:32.240 --> 00:23:34.319
like that, or not really a
thing that you you run up against.

315
00:23:36.480 --> 00:23:37.640
Well, here's the thing. You
know, growing up, I was involved

316
00:23:38.079 --> 00:23:41.920
interested in a lot of crypt It's
not involved. I was interested in all

317
00:23:41.920 --> 00:23:44.680
sorts of cryptics. I'm well burst
on a lot of cryptids up here and

318
00:23:45.079 --> 00:23:48.400
northwest. I mean, you go
to Portland and you know that there's a

319
00:23:48.400 --> 00:23:52.759
big sign that says keep Portland's weird
down in or it's great. Yeah,

320
00:23:52.759 --> 00:23:55.880
and it is weird. The you
know, the Pacific Northwest is a weird

321
00:23:56.000 --> 00:23:59.799
spot. There's a lot of things
that you know, people will claim to

322
00:23:59.799 --> 00:24:03.440
see. You know, they have
a Cadborosaurus on the coast that apparently it's

323
00:24:03.640 --> 00:24:07.359
like a water cryptid because from San
Francisco all the way up to Alaska they

324
00:24:07.359 --> 00:24:12.519
call Caddie. There's, of course, the the large thunderbirds. There's you

325
00:24:12.519 --> 00:24:19.319
know, pterodactyl, tranidon sightings.
Apparently you got UFO sightings. I personally

326
00:24:19.680 --> 00:24:23.200
never seen any of that stuff.
And I spend I mean I live in

327
00:24:23.240 --> 00:24:26.599
the woods, and I spend ungall
the amount of time in the woods.

328
00:24:26.599 --> 00:24:30.319
I've never personally come across you know, I've never seen any weird orbs or

329
00:24:30.400 --> 00:24:36.640
lights. You know, none of
that's a but you do hear stories from

330
00:24:36.640 --> 00:24:41.400
credible people that claim to have seen
you know, Cadburisaurus or a flying cryptid

331
00:24:41.400 --> 00:24:45.359
that's much larger enacting peculiar. You
do have people claiming to see lights in

332
00:24:45.400 --> 00:24:48.720
the woods or UFOs. I mean
Washington State, you know, I think

333
00:24:48.720 --> 00:24:53.440
one of the really first big UFO
sightings was around mount very near back in

334
00:24:53.839 --> 00:24:57.839
ooh, what the sixties, fifties
or seventies, I forget flying discs.

335
00:24:59.480 --> 00:25:02.359
So it's an where there's a lot
of stuff that happens up here, and

336
00:25:02.440 --> 00:25:07.440
different cryptids, you know. We
know, mainly though my focus and mainly

337
00:25:07.440 --> 00:25:11.519
what I come across the sasquatch sightings
up here and It's way more prevalent than

338
00:25:11.599 --> 00:25:15.839
people will ever guess. You know, for every you know, one siding

339
00:25:15.880 --> 00:25:18.240
you hear about or two signs you
hear about, there's I mean, I

340
00:25:18.240 --> 00:25:21.359
can only imagine how many more signings
are out there that you know, from

341
00:25:21.400 --> 00:25:23.400
people that are either not willing to
talk or just don't have an opportunity to

342
00:25:23.400 --> 00:25:30.640
talk about it. Very cool,
very cool. You'd mentioned before that you

343
00:25:30.720 --> 00:25:37.279
have actually you spent time in the
Yosemite area early on. Can you go

344
00:25:37.400 --> 00:25:41.880
in? I've actually so I visited
that area. It's a beautiful area and

345
00:25:44.640 --> 00:25:51.720
I'll just I'll paint a little picture. When we drove there from Cupertino area,

346
00:25:51.920 --> 00:25:56.559
you lose cell service like an like
two hours outside of the park.

347
00:25:56.880 --> 00:26:02.319
It felt like it was nuts and
there was apart when we were like driving

348
00:26:02.359 --> 00:26:07.960
around in this little electric car up
these hills and like we had to stop

349
00:26:07.359 --> 00:26:11.559
and literally if you had stepped you
always hear people say this, if you

350
00:26:11.720 --> 00:26:15.920
stepped a foot off the road,
you would be a lot like you'd be

351
00:26:15.960 --> 00:26:22.519
done. It was prehistoric and it
was amazing. Do you have any you

352
00:26:22.559 --> 00:26:27.759
know, I can recall anything that
happened around that area or like any cool

353
00:26:27.839 --> 00:26:34.279
stories about researching that area or yeah, I mean so from when I one

354
00:26:34.319 --> 00:26:40.640
of my old girlfriends work to Yosemite
and that really was a nice a kick

355
00:26:40.680 --> 00:26:42.759
in the pants and get up there
even more so, but Yosemity when my

356
00:26:42.839 --> 00:26:48.759
perst. I remember going through a
tunnel and coming to an area inspiration points,

357
00:26:48.960 --> 00:26:53.519
and seeing the Semity Valley and it
was absolutely amazing. A guy from

358
00:26:53.559 --> 00:26:56.680
Scotland that got the witness that,
you know, I was, you know,

359
00:26:56.960 --> 00:27:00.920
enthralled. I see why you know
Theodore roll about some of these others.

360
00:27:00.960 --> 00:27:02.440
You know, I said, this
is God's country. It's just an

361
00:27:02.440 --> 00:27:04.920
amazing country and just amazing. So
I fell in love with it. And

362
00:27:04.920 --> 00:27:08.000
and of course I heard about all
these sad squats reports in the Sierras and

363
00:27:08.119 --> 00:27:11.599
Yosemite and all that. So I
made at a point, you know,

364
00:27:11.640 --> 00:27:14.319
even though from I lived in San
Diego it's like eleven twelve hour drive,

365
00:27:14.480 --> 00:27:15.440
I would do it as much as
I could, and I did it for

366
00:27:15.559 --> 00:27:21.920
years. Amazing area. I've been
all around yo semi backpack in Yosemite.

367
00:27:21.960 --> 00:27:25.920
I've been up to half Going,
I've been all around Elk Cap with Semni

368
00:27:25.960 --> 00:27:27.720
Falls. I've been all around there. And I always liked to backpack,

369
00:27:29.079 --> 00:27:32.599
you know, off trail and off
country. I personally, you know,

370
00:27:32.599 --> 00:27:34.240
I've had a lot of bear encounters
up there, a ton of bear encounters.

371
00:27:34.240 --> 00:27:37.519
There's bearers up there galore. Oh
yeah, man, I'm chasing from

372
00:27:37.519 --> 00:27:41.559
my camp up there. I never
personally had a big foot encounter. Right

373
00:27:41.599 --> 00:27:45.680
there. I came across one impression
I thought was interesting, could have been

374
00:27:45.680 --> 00:27:48.720
a double bear stamp. The most
interesting thing that that I took away from

375
00:27:48.799 --> 00:27:55.319
Yosemite, besides just that it's it's
so vast, and you know, there's

376
00:27:56.119 --> 00:27:59.759
a lot of people that go there. I talked to a a former park

377
00:28:00.359 --> 00:28:03.440
She was a female, and she
was working the l cap area below the

378
00:28:03.480 --> 00:28:07.000
base, near a hotel out there, and she had something throwing rocks at

379
00:28:07.039 --> 00:28:11.440
her. And when she looked up
from this little bluff, she saw this

380
00:28:11.599 --> 00:28:15.440
black shadow and it took off by
pedally up the hill. And I heard

381
00:28:15.440 --> 00:28:19.279
that first person. Now we're talking
ninety seven through about two thousand and six,

382
00:28:19.319 --> 00:28:22.880
it's kind of a time prime I
would go up there. Really I

383
00:28:22.920 --> 00:28:25.519
didn't. Back ninety seven, I
had a beeper. I didn't really have

384
00:28:25.519 --> 00:28:29.519
a cell phone, you know,
so it wasn't like I could get cell

385
00:28:29.559 --> 00:28:33.519
phone reception anyways. But that's awesome. You know, there are a lot

386
00:28:33.559 --> 00:28:37.599
of missing people in that area,
but I'll tell you it's easily. You

387
00:28:37.599 --> 00:28:41.680
could get lost up there easy.
And I mean the last time I was

388
00:28:41.720 --> 00:28:47.599
there last summer, I realized I
will never go there. During the height

389
00:28:47.640 --> 00:28:49.799
of the season, I took my
family down there and they had never been

390
00:28:49.839 --> 00:28:52.000
there. My eight year old daughter
and my wife. We took him out.

391
00:28:52.039 --> 00:28:55.359
I took him out there on our
way down to San Diego. Driving

392
00:28:55.400 --> 00:28:59.279
down from Washington, we stood.
We sat in our car for over an

393
00:28:59.319 --> 00:29:02.680
hour trying to get in the park. It was a nightmare. There's so

394
00:29:02.720 --> 00:29:04.839
many people, millions of people.
I forget the number, but it's over

395
00:29:04.880 --> 00:29:07.799
a million people that go through the
park every year. You've got that many

396
00:29:07.799 --> 00:29:11.480
people come through a park, and
you've got a lot of tourists from out

397
00:29:11.480 --> 00:29:14.799
of the country, they don't speak
English, that had no business being in

398
00:29:14.799 --> 00:29:17.720
the woods. People are going to
get hurt and people are going to disappear.

399
00:29:17.759 --> 00:29:19.960
So there's no shock to me that
I always get whold your sementys a

400
00:29:19.960 --> 00:29:25.160
hotspot, woll Yeah, but there's
when you have that number of people that

401
00:29:25.240 --> 00:29:27.400
go through that area, it's to
be expected. You know, I can't

402
00:29:27.400 --> 00:29:30.799
accounting times that I came across hurt
people or lost people out there while I

403
00:29:30.839 --> 00:29:34.400
was hiking. And the amountain villagers
out there, oh yeah, all the

404
00:29:34.440 --> 00:29:37.480
time. I mean I experienced that
up here in the pacivin Northwest, hiking

405
00:29:37.559 --> 00:29:41.519
the Olympics. There's people that are
unprepared or ill prepared and don't know what

406
00:29:41.599 --> 00:29:45.440
they're doing. So yeah, I
mean Yosemite, I have no doubt there's

407
00:29:45.440 --> 00:29:48.000
probably sasquatch down there. I just
you know, and talking to a few

408
00:29:48.039 --> 00:29:52.440
people that had experiences really solidified that
for me. But I never had an

409
00:29:52.480 --> 00:29:55.920
the counter down there. But you
know, when you lived eleven twelve hours

410
00:29:55.920 --> 00:29:59.359
away and you're kind of like a
glorified camping because you're just doing it for

411
00:29:59.440 --> 00:30:02.480
a weekend, four days or whatever. You can only do so much,

412
00:30:02.680 --> 00:30:06.839
and it's an area you need to
live in. The Sierra's beautiful, tons

413
00:30:06.920 --> 00:30:11.960
of wildlife. And if you think
Yosemite is primordial or you know, you

414
00:30:11.000 --> 00:30:15.799
know, Jurassic Park is, should
come up to Washington State or Oregon,

415
00:30:15.920 --> 00:30:22.000
specifically Washington State up in the Olympics
where you got mobs and I've been there.

416
00:30:22.079 --> 00:30:25.720
Yeah, we hiked, we hiked
the whole as a whole rainforce who

417
00:30:25.839 --> 00:30:33.240
rainforts is crazy, it's nuts.
Primorial We've been to the Forks area and

418
00:30:33.240 --> 00:30:37.799
and all that, that's a different
story, but the whole rainforest is simply

419
00:30:37.839 --> 00:30:48.000
beautiful. Unexpected part of the trip
definitely. Man as we start to kind

420
00:30:48.000 --> 00:30:56.319
of get towards the end of our
time here, what is what is kind

421
00:30:56.359 --> 00:31:00.640
of next for I know the Olympic
project is probably the main focus of your

422
00:31:00.680 --> 00:31:08.279
your time with squatching. Is there
anything that maybe you can tease us with

423
00:31:08.440 --> 00:31:12.319
something that you guys are are working
towards or I guess you did say that

424
00:31:12.359 --> 00:31:17.759
you you've found these new new vests, which uh nests, which are huge.

425
00:31:17.839 --> 00:31:22.039
That's that's a huge deal because you
thought that that was a dead end,

426
00:31:22.039 --> 00:31:29.720
but then finding new ones that's incredible. So yeah, yeah, So

427
00:31:30.000 --> 00:31:34.839
basically, so, you know,
this initial nest site that was discovered by

428
00:31:34.839 --> 00:31:40.279
this Timber cruiser was probably the most
exciting thing and still is the most exciting

429
00:31:40.279 --> 00:31:42.960
thing I've ever worked on, based
on a number of actors, based on

430
00:31:44.119 --> 00:31:47.440
just so many different things, and
you know, historically speaking, there's been

431
00:31:47.480 --> 00:31:51.720
other nests bound, but just not
this many and not study like this where

432
00:31:51.720 --> 00:31:56.319
you have unknown hair that matches primate
hair is doctor Melgram Moltoya. You have

433
00:31:57.519 --> 00:32:02.440
nest formulating constructed the huckleberry breaks and
snaps and how it's formula. You needed

434
00:32:02.480 --> 00:32:07.640
opposable thumb, you had rocks that
had score marks found, you had bush

435
00:32:07.759 --> 00:32:13.640
nests off the ground that were constructed
like the ground nests. So still it

436
00:32:13.759 --> 00:32:15.839
was and still is the most exciting
thing. Now going forward, well,

437
00:32:15.839 --> 00:32:21.640
finally after four years, we've come
across some possibly new nests, but actually

438
00:32:21.720 --> 00:32:24.519
being I just you know, all
we had as a goal as a team

439
00:32:24.599 --> 00:32:30.359
was to find more nest and as
new as can be. I had no

440
00:32:30.400 --> 00:32:34.720
idea we were going to come across
something making a nest as it was being

441
00:32:34.759 --> 00:32:37.039
made. And now we got all. We got some samples, we got

442
00:32:37.039 --> 00:32:43.640
some casts, some different things that
I'll eventually release. We've had some really

443
00:32:43.720 --> 00:32:47.599
key people involved with helping us cast
this stuff. And so going forward,

444
00:32:47.960 --> 00:32:52.440
really it's we're just we're not ambulance
chasing. We're studying was one area,

445
00:32:52.519 --> 00:32:58.319
this one bass area as much as
we can collecting audio. You know,

446
00:32:58.359 --> 00:33:01.839
we do use some troll cameras,
but like Lee and we're just you know,

447
00:33:01.920 --> 00:33:05.920
studying the area, getting all the
known animals in this area, all

448
00:33:05.960 --> 00:33:07.839
the sounds they make, so that
we can roll in and roll out what

449
00:33:07.839 --> 00:33:14.880
we're recording if it's suspicious, collecting
data from this new nest site, looking

450
00:33:14.920 --> 00:33:16.880
for new nest sites. But at
the same time, we're also there's the

451
00:33:16.960 --> 00:33:22.359
thing, something's making these nests and
making them for a reason. And you

452
00:33:22.400 --> 00:33:24.880
know, part of you when you're
out there and you feel guilty because you

453
00:33:24.880 --> 00:33:30.119
disturb something and the amount of work
that went into making like even this new

454
00:33:30.160 --> 00:33:32.240
nest, it was in the you
know, the process of making it,

455
00:33:32.279 --> 00:33:37.359
the amount of work. When my
partner I disrupted it, you know,

456
00:33:37.480 --> 00:33:38.759
when I got back to our camp
because it was in the evening, we

457
00:33:38.920 --> 00:33:43.160
just kind of we backed out of
there. It was getting dark, went

458
00:33:43.200 --> 00:33:45.880
on. You know, I don't
care what's making I didn't want to disturb

459
00:33:45.960 --> 00:33:47.720
it, and didn't know if we're
in a good spot to be disturbing anything.

460
00:33:49.880 --> 00:33:52.799
We went back into the next day
with a few more people and discovered

461
00:33:52.839 --> 00:33:55.759
what we discovered. But part of
you feels guilty for disrupting something making that

462
00:33:57.319 --> 00:34:00.720
but you know it is what it
is, and uh, you know,

463
00:34:00.799 --> 00:34:02.839
and we'll study that area. You
know, it's disturbed. So we're constantly

464
00:34:02.839 --> 00:34:06.119
looking for a new nests. The
same time, we're also trying to be

465
00:34:07.240 --> 00:34:10.079
not jerks, you know, you
know, if something's making a nest for

466
00:34:10.239 --> 00:34:14.039
a little one or a baby or
a newborn. You know, who are

467
00:34:14.039 --> 00:34:16.880
we to go in these areas and
disturb them and disrupt that that amount of

468
00:34:16.880 --> 00:34:21.519
work. So it's a catch twenty
two the same you know, science moves

469
00:34:21.519 --> 00:34:22.920
on, but at the same time, uh, you know, I don't

470
00:34:22.920 --> 00:34:27.760
want to. I'd rather come find
the nest later after it's been departed,

471
00:34:28.440 --> 00:34:30.840
you know exactly. That's kind of
where're and that's what we're focused on,

472
00:34:30.880 --> 00:34:34.039
is finding new nests and studying this
nests and learning everything we can about these

473
00:34:34.119 --> 00:34:38.639
new nests and and and the Element
Project is not about proving sasquats exist.

474
00:34:38.679 --> 00:34:43.960
We're about studying what we already pretty
much know to exist. The majority of

475
00:34:43.960 --> 00:34:46.440
our Limit Project members, so we
do have some things in those individuals that

476
00:34:47.119 --> 00:34:52.000
never had an encounter, but we're
about collecting as much data so when that

477
00:34:52.079 --> 00:34:57.039
day comes across that sasquatch has proven, we already have everything laid out there

478
00:34:57.079 --> 00:35:00.039
for academia to look at. Yeah, it's so fun and it gets it

479
00:35:00.079 --> 00:35:04.679
out in the woods which we enjoy
and we have a great group, right

480
00:35:05.000 --> 00:35:09.199
because at the end of the day, you're still spending a lot of good

481
00:35:09.239 --> 00:35:16.960
time and nature, which there's nothing
wrong with that. If people want to

482
00:35:17.039 --> 00:35:22.519
keep track of what you're doing,
what is the best the best things for

483
00:35:22.559 --> 00:35:27.679
them to look at? Website or
social media what have you. Yeah,

484
00:35:27.719 --> 00:35:31.639
so we have our website is it's
still we're still building upon this and working

485
00:35:31.679 --> 00:35:34.440
on it. A lot of us, like I said, are we have

486
00:35:34.519 --> 00:35:36.679
dave jobs, so it's hard to
keep up, but we do keep up.

487
00:35:36.679 --> 00:35:42.360
So Olympic Project dot com you can
send emails there anything, audio and

488
00:35:42.400 --> 00:35:44.760
all that you can share and we
will get back to you at some point

489
00:35:44.760 --> 00:35:47.320
in time. David Ellis kind of
really leads that. Pardon me at this

490
00:35:47.360 --> 00:35:52.199
point in time. Of course,
I do host my own podcast called Monster

491
00:35:52.239 --> 00:35:58.199
Rex Radio, and you can reach
me or my partner Gunner Monson at monster

495
00:36:09.960 --> 00:36:14.440
But the LIMP Project dot com it
is probably the best way and we

496
00:36:14.559 --> 00:36:17.440
have lots of resources and lots of
individuals on there, David Elle, Derek

497
00:36:17.559 --> 00:36:22.719
Randalls, myself, just a ton
of you know, Cindy Dowson, a

498
00:36:22.760 --> 00:36:27.000
ton of different individuals from different backgrounds
and different fields that may be able to

499
00:36:27.000 --> 00:36:30.920
help you out. Or just check
out the website. It'll be updated even
