17
00:00:51.920 --> 00:00:53.759

Very well, really good?

25
00:01:15.719 --> 00:01:20.159
Thank you awesome. Well, guys, i'd say let's get right

26
00:01:20.200 --> 00:01:22.000
into it. Sounds like we've got a lot of ground

27
00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:24.519
to cover, so I'm going to go ahead and pass

28
00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:28.200
the mic over to you, guys, and we're going to

29
00:01:28.480 --> 00:01:33.359
start with the first thing that was experienced. So go ahead, guys.

30
00:01:33.439 --> 00:01:37.079
I'll let you take over from here and I'll be listening.

31
00:01:39.000 --> 00:01:40.680
Okay. Yeah.

32
00:01:40.719 --> 00:01:44.000
My first encounter happened when I was eighteen years old,

33
00:01:44.040 --> 00:01:49.719
and that was in Trucky, California. It's fourteen miles from

34
00:01:49.760 --> 00:01:54.799
Lake Tahoe. Well, it was the last day of school

35
00:01:54.920 --> 00:01:58.640
and weekend was coming up and me and I call

36
00:01:58.719 --> 00:02:00.480
you my little brother, but he was at actually my

37
00:02:00.519 --> 00:02:04.560
mom's boyfriend son. He went with me and a friend

38
00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:09.199
of mine, Danny, went with us, and we drove from

39
00:02:09.240 --> 00:02:12.960
Trucky to Bird Eye, California, and took a dirt road

40
00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:15.360
as far as we could possibly drive it until we

41
00:02:15.400 --> 00:02:16.479
couldn't drive no more.

42
00:02:18.039 --> 00:02:35.680
And Steve be there, but in the world just happened.

43
00:02:38.280 --> 00:02:40.960
I'm here, Okay, No, that was really weird man. We

44
00:02:41.120 --> 00:02:46.479
just had a total audio dropout. Okay, so that's that's

45
00:02:46.520 --> 00:02:46.919
no matter.

46
00:02:48.680 --> 00:02:53.719
I have electronic things happened to me on my phone.

47
00:02:54.120 --> 00:02:54.719
Just went.

48
00:02:56.240 --> 00:02:59.199
Well, well, guys, I'll tell you I have I have

49
00:02:59.240 --> 00:03:01.479
stuff happened to me all the time too, So we'll

50
00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:06.599
we'll make quite quite the pair tonight of well you too,

51
00:03:08.599 --> 00:03:14.560
you wow, yeah, he does. Yeah, all right, Well I

52
00:03:14.639 --> 00:03:15.639
know I am.

53
00:03:15.759 --> 00:03:16.520
I'm kind of a while.

54
00:03:17.199 --> 00:03:19.319
All right, Well, we're just we're going to try to

55
00:03:19.319 --> 00:03:23.960
make this happen. This is gonna be a wild one. Okay.

56
00:03:24.039 --> 00:03:27.000
So the last thing I heard, Steve was you and

57
00:03:27.039 --> 00:03:30.719
your friends were driving from Trucky to bird Eye I believe.

58
00:03:32.719 --> 00:03:33.080
Today.

59
00:03:33.240 --> 00:03:35.360
Yeah, And we just took a dirt road all the

60
00:03:35.360 --> 00:03:38.759
way as far as we could go, and we found

61
00:03:38.800 --> 00:03:41.919
this meadow. We've we've been driving for this meadow with

62
00:03:41.960 --> 00:03:45.199
a fire pit in the middle of it, and we

63
00:03:45.319 --> 00:03:48.840
camped there. Well, my friend Danny had those bottle rockets

64
00:03:48.879 --> 00:03:51.960
he was talking about, so we decided to shoot him off.

65
00:03:53.319 --> 00:03:58.280
And oh man, after about I don't know, twenty minutes

66
00:03:58.319 --> 00:04:02.560
after we shot him off, something at the end of

67
00:04:02.599 --> 00:04:09.120
this meadow, we heard this screaming and this one I

68
00:04:09.159 --> 00:04:12.039
don't know. It's probably about a sixty foot tree started

69
00:04:12.120 --> 00:04:16.079
rocking back and forth real fast, and this thing wouldn't

70
00:04:16.079 --> 00:04:18.639
stop screaming. I can't describe the scream. It was like

71
00:04:18.680 --> 00:04:22.519
a like a loud scream with a growl in it.

72
00:04:22.600 --> 00:04:26.879
And also I don't know what it was. It was

73
00:04:26.959 --> 00:04:33.759
just weird. But anyway, this thing was pissed and they

74
00:04:34.040 --> 00:04:36.639
ran into the car and locked the door and left

75
00:04:36.680 --> 00:04:40.519
me out there. So I just went by the campfire

76
00:04:40.560 --> 00:04:43.759
and just started huddling next to it. I could hear

77
00:04:43.879 --> 00:04:49.759
this thing walking around the whole meadow around our camp. So,

78
00:04:49.879 --> 00:04:52.079
needless to say, I didn't get much sleep that night.

79
00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:53.920
Oh my goodness, let me make sure I get that right.

80
00:04:53.959 --> 00:04:57.920
So you hear something scream, they lock you out of

81
00:04:57.959 --> 00:05:00.759
the car and you're just pretty much hanging out by

82
00:05:00.759 --> 00:05:02.920
the fire while it's like pacing back and.

83
00:05:02.879 --> 00:05:08.439
Forth and there in the car locked the doors. My

84
00:05:08.480 --> 00:05:17.199
goodness wouldn't let me in scared of it anyway. Yeah,

85
00:05:17.279 --> 00:05:21.199
I could hear this thing breaking branches and limbs all

86
00:05:21.279 --> 00:05:26.040
around us all night long. As that tree was shaking,

87
00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:30.079
I could see the sky behind the tree, but I

88
00:05:30.079 --> 00:05:32.000
could also see below it a little bit because there

89
00:05:32.120 --> 00:05:34.759
was some sort of a moonlight, not a phae moon,

90
00:05:34.839 --> 00:05:37.639
but parcel moon. And I could see the silhouette of

91
00:05:37.759 --> 00:05:39.680
this thing rock in this.

92
00:05:39.720 --> 00:05:45.240
Tree back and forth. It was huge and it was

93
00:05:45.240 --> 00:05:46.839
standing up. It was not a bear.

94
00:05:46.959 --> 00:05:49.199
Could you get a feel as to how tall it

95
00:05:49.240 --> 00:05:51.519
may have been by the silhouette that you saw?

96
00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:55.199
Ninety maybe maybe taller, I don't know.

97
00:05:55.639 --> 00:05:56.800
It was huge.

98
00:05:59.160 --> 00:05:59.759
And wide.

99
00:06:00.680 --> 00:06:02.639
You could see the black outline of the body. It

100
00:06:02.720 --> 00:06:10.279
was just huge and wide. That screams got me, Yeah,

101
00:06:10.600 --> 00:06:11.240
it scared me.

102
00:06:11.800 --> 00:06:15.439
Could you hear any other sounds that night around you

103
00:06:16.560 --> 00:06:16.920
at all?

104
00:06:18.279 --> 00:06:21.480
Just the breaking of the limbs and the branches and

105
00:06:21.839 --> 00:06:25.319
stuff as it was walking around the whole perimeter of

106
00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:26.399
the meadow.

107
00:06:28.680 --> 00:06:30.720
So everything else was pretty quiet.

108
00:06:30.360 --> 00:06:30.560
You know.

109
00:06:30.879 --> 00:06:33.399
Then everything was quiet.

110
00:06:33.439 --> 00:06:37.480
It was really quiet. It did not like those bottle rockets.

111
00:06:37.199 --> 00:06:37.759
I'm sure.

112
00:06:41.279 --> 00:06:45.319
So then after so you guys drove out of there,

113
00:06:46.120 --> 00:06:48.680
you hauled back home. So did you tell your parents

114
00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:51.079
when you got home or how did that go down?

115
00:06:53.439 --> 00:06:55.879
It didn't go over very well. They all said you

116
00:06:55.879 --> 00:06:58.279
guys were drinking and we weren't.

117
00:06:59.839 --> 00:07:01.199
I still never had anything.

118
00:07:01.240 --> 00:07:05.439
They did not believe, but we we knew, we knew

119
00:07:05.519 --> 00:07:09.839
there was something there nas illucination stunt per very often either.

120
00:07:11.480 --> 00:07:14.360
No, right, it was just a weird situation.

121
00:07:16.000 --> 00:07:18.079
Did you ever go back to that area, Steve?

122
00:07:19.600 --> 00:07:20.079
I did not.

123
00:07:20.639 --> 00:07:23.720
No, I did not. It didn't want us there. I

124
00:07:23.720 --> 00:07:26.439
could feel that, dude. Those bottle rock itself really made

125
00:07:26.480 --> 00:07:26.839
it mad.

126
00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:30.720
Oh, I mean you know that was Yeah, the bottle

127
00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:32.720
rockets did not help the situation.

128
00:07:33.319 --> 00:07:35.800
Yeah, it did not help. No.

129
00:07:37.759 --> 00:07:39.519
What approximate year was that, Steve?

130
00:07:41.560 --> 00:07:44.879
That was in nineteen seventy eight.

131
00:07:45.079 --> 00:07:48.319
I'm thinkingness, wow, yeah, that's that's the year for bigfoot, dude.

132
00:07:48.319 --> 00:07:51.439
I mean a lot of Bigfoot activity happened in nineteen

133
00:07:51.480 --> 00:07:52.639
seventy eight for some reason.

134
00:07:52.720 --> 00:07:54.800
I had just turned eighteen.

135
00:07:55.120 --> 00:08:00.759
Okay, wow, good stuff, good stuff. Okay, So how did

136
00:08:00.800 --> 00:08:04.399
that affect your life after you experienced it? Did you

137
00:08:04.480 --> 00:08:07.040
did it put you down the road towards Bigfoot or

138
00:08:07.040 --> 00:08:08.920
were you kind of like I don't want anything else

139
00:08:08.959 --> 00:08:09.160
to do.

140
00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:11.519
No.

141
00:08:11.759 --> 00:08:14.800
I was totally interested in it. I wanted to figure

142
00:08:14.800 --> 00:08:17.839
out what it was, but there was really not much

143
00:08:17.879 --> 00:08:19.480
I could do about it. You know, I didn't want

144
00:08:19.480 --> 00:08:25.800
to go back there. That was affluentess to me. But yeah,

145
00:08:26.120 --> 00:08:31.720
then after that, I moved to Oregon, I lived there before,

146
00:08:31.800 --> 00:08:35.759
but I moved back to Oregon into a in a

147
00:08:35.799 --> 00:08:43.000
little town called press And, Oregon. Then I moved to Gilchrist, Oregon. Well,

148
00:08:43.120 --> 00:08:47.080
the next encounter happened when I was taking my dog

149
00:08:47.159 --> 00:08:49.320
for a while and with my friends right down the

150
00:08:49.320 --> 00:08:56.080
street here about a quarter mile and it was right

151
00:08:56.480 --> 00:09:01.080
behind a friend of mine's house, Robert, and on blm Land.

152
00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:04.600
But he had this trail that he'd walk all the

153
00:09:04.639 --> 00:09:07.399
time with his dog, and so we decided to take

154
00:09:07.440 --> 00:09:11.159
the dogs for a walk. Well, about halfway through, there's

155
00:09:11.200 --> 00:09:14.360
this little area that's open up, and there's a whole

156
00:09:14.360 --> 00:09:16.480
bunch of fallen trees where we can sit and just

157
00:09:16.720 --> 00:09:20.080
you know, sit on the brook the fallen trees and

158
00:09:20.200 --> 00:09:24.919
let the dogs run. Well, I was looking around and

159
00:09:25.399 --> 00:09:28.559
there there was some caught my eye. It was these

160
00:09:28.600 --> 00:09:34.639
two trees, probably about forty fifty feet high, woven in

161
00:09:34.679 --> 00:09:39.039
between two other trees into a big x. The weird

162
00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:41.600
thing is that there was still root wads attached to

163
00:09:41.679 --> 00:09:45.679
these things and they were still green. And Robert told

164
00:09:45.720 --> 00:09:48.120
me that kids did that. He did not do that,

165
00:09:48.679 --> 00:09:52.039
and there's no roads back there. I took her to

166
00:09:52.120 --> 00:09:55.320
this area and to her little granddaughter, and she saw

167
00:09:55.360 --> 00:09:57.840
all this stuff. But when we went back. It was

168
00:09:57.879 --> 00:10:02.120
about a year later when I took her back, and

169
00:10:02.440 --> 00:10:06.200
that big eggs now looked like a giant I don't know,

170
00:10:06.360 --> 00:10:11.000
dream catcher of some sort, because other stuff was put in.

171
00:10:09.720 --> 00:10:12.799
It was just weird.

172
00:10:14.080 --> 00:10:17.080
I never saw anything, but I started taking pictures of

173
00:10:17.159 --> 00:10:20.519
these things. And but when I got back to my house,

174
00:10:20.559 --> 00:10:23.360
I was going through the photos and I there was

175
00:10:23.399 --> 00:10:25.159
one in the photo watching us.

176
00:10:26.399 --> 00:10:30.919
Really yeah, it was an adult one.

177
00:10:30.960 --> 00:10:33.519
Though it was an adult, it was I think it

178
00:10:33.600 --> 00:10:34.480
was watching.

179
00:10:34.200 --> 00:10:34.919
The little ones.

180
00:10:35.039 --> 00:10:37.159
I'm not sure because in the photo you could almost

181
00:10:37.200 --> 00:10:39.440
see a lower one right below it.

182
00:10:39.960 --> 00:10:43.000
The little skylight I saw was like a young one.

183
00:10:43.639 --> 00:10:45.120
I'm servant here because.

184
00:10:46.799 --> 00:10:50.519
Right afterwards that's when I saw that thing. It was

185
00:10:50.600 --> 00:10:53.240
just getting dark, not really dark, but it was dusk,

186
00:10:54.240 --> 00:10:57.360
and I saw this thing wobbling by my gate and

187
00:10:57.399 --> 00:11:00.879
it was about seven futall in the house of foot,

188
00:11:01.000 --> 00:11:05.039
all hunched over, covered in red hair, kind of an

189
00:11:05.039 --> 00:11:09.919
orange color, and I ran out there to see what

190
00:11:10.039 --> 00:11:11.960
it was. It was gone and there's no work for

191
00:11:12.080 --> 00:11:15.759
it to go. I don't know where it went. It

192
00:11:15.919 --> 00:11:19.440
just freaked me out. And then your Tracy was there

193
00:11:19.519 --> 00:11:20.080
the next day.

194
00:11:21.000 --> 00:11:22.559
Yeah, so I.

195
00:11:23.279 --> 00:11:26.960
Took my granddaughter walking up this road, like our little

196
00:11:26.960 --> 00:11:29.360
gravel road that we live on. Off of it as

197
00:11:29.360 --> 00:11:31.720
a spur road that takes you out to the pipeline,

198
00:11:32.320 --> 00:11:35.080
and my granddaughter and I would take walks and go

199
00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:38.799
out that way all the time. Well, we got to

200
00:11:38.879 --> 00:11:41.960
this clearing where the road forks off, and across that

201
00:11:42.000 --> 00:11:44.480
little clearing there was.

202
00:11:46.000 --> 00:11:49.679
This a sad fuatch.

203
00:11:49.600 --> 00:11:53.600
Peeking around a tree at us, and I stopped and

204
00:11:53.639 --> 00:11:55.399
I was like, skylard, do you see that?

205
00:11:56.000 --> 00:11:56.919
And she's like what.

206
00:11:57.279 --> 00:11:59.120
Then I pointed it out to her and it just

207
00:11:59.200 --> 00:12:03.080
kept peeking and I was like, do you see that now?

208
00:12:03.440 --> 00:12:06.320
She's like yeah, And I said, I think it's.

209
00:12:06.240 --> 00:12:09.720
Time we go home. So it just turned and came back.

210
00:12:10.000 --> 00:12:12.799
But later that day I was telling Steve about it,

211
00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:16.480
and that's when he told me that the night before

212
00:12:16.559 --> 00:12:18.240
he had seen it walk past his gate.

213
00:12:20.399 --> 00:12:22.799
It was the same one, most likely orange hair.

214
00:12:23.480 --> 00:12:27.559
Yeah, it was kind of like, yeah, like an ringutane

215
00:12:27.600 --> 00:12:31.480
would be colored, only like darker towards the skin, like,

216
00:12:32.000 --> 00:12:35.440
but the ends were like orange.

217
00:12:36.879 --> 00:12:37.080
Yeah.

218
00:12:37.799 --> 00:12:38.879
It was good.

219
00:12:39.000 --> 00:12:39.159
Though.

220
00:12:40.120 --> 00:12:43.320
My granddaughter was probably five or six, so that was

221
00:12:43.679 --> 00:12:48.039
probably six or seven years I think ago now, But

222
00:12:48.480 --> 00:12:51.480
we hear wood knocks and screaming and stuff in here

223
00:12:51.559 --> 00:12:54.600
all the time. And there's times I can smell it

224
00:12:54.639 --> 00:12:57.519
when I walk out of my door and my dog

225
00:12:57.559 --> 00:12:59.399
won't go out, and it's just.

226
00:12:59.320 --> 00:13:02.279
A horrendous, wretched death smell.

227
00:13:02.639 --> 00:13:05.399
Well, yeah, I mean I grew up out in the forest,

228
00:13:05.480 --> 00:13:08.840
so I kind of know what bears in the different

229
00:13:08.960 --> 00:13:13.240
sense of the animals elk steak to during certain times.

230
00:13:13.480 --> 00:13:17.039
But I know the steeps of the different critters, and

231
00:13:17.159 --> 00:13:19.799
this is like something lovely all of.

232
00:13:19.759 --> 00:13:23.480
Its own it. I mean, it's just stink. And I've

233
00:13:23.519 --> 00:13:26.440
grown up out in the woods. I was, I knew.

234
00:13:26.919 --> 00:13:29.519
Yeah, if you look Sliss Home up on Google Maps

235
00:13:29.679 --> 00:13:32.679
and just start going out from it, all it is

236
00:13:32.679 --> 00:13:35.240
is mountains around there, and that's where I grew up,

237
00:13:36.159 --> 00:13:38.759
and so yeah, I've been around it.

238
00:13:38.840 --> 00:13:42.559
I know the smell of it. It'll be close enough.

239
00:13:42.600 --> 00:13:44.360
I can smell it when I come out my door

240
00:13:44.399 --> 00:13:45.039
some nights.

241
00:13:45.240 --> 00:13:48.639
Yeah, I don't know if they emit that odor, because

242
00:13:49.120 --> 00:13:52.120
they can, or if they've been rolling in something.

243
00:13:52.399 --> 00:13:52.759
I don't know.

244
00:13:56.360 --> 00:13:58.080
Yeah, it probably smells awesome to them.

245
00:13:58.799 --> 00:13:59.240
Pervien.

246
00:13:59.639 --> 00:14:01.200
Yeah, like, look I got.

247
00:14:01.000 --> 00:14:08.840
It, Tracy, How how big would you estimate the sasquatch

248
00:14:08.960 --> 00:14:10.759
was that was peaking at you and your granddaughter.

249
00:14:13.159 --> 00:14:17.039
Well, I was probably, like, I don't know, fifteen twenty

250
00:14:17.120 --> 00:14:23.919
yards away. But my guess is because the tree, it

251
00:14:24.000 --> 00:14:27.039
was probably the size round of a dinner plate, it's

252
00:14:27.120 --> 00:14:31.279
my guess. And its head was at least that big around,

253
00:14:31.840 --> 00:14:37.080
and it was probably six seven feet tall off the ground,

254
00:14:37.279 --> 00:14:37.759
is my guess.

255
00:14:39.000 --> 00:14:39.720
D trees.

256
00:14:40.080 --> 00:14:43.919
Well, and it's peaking around. I mean, I'm just saying

257
00:14:43.919 --> 00:14:47.120
probably six seven feet tall, the head peeking out of

258
00:14:47.120 --> 00:14:49.120
the tree from behind.

259
00:14:48.840 --> 00:14:49.879
The tree big.

260
00:14:49.919 --> 00:14:52.480
So societyho will be right back after these messages.

261
00:15:08.399 --> 00:15:10.679
Yeah, when I've seen it, it looks to be about

262
00:15:10.679 --> 00:15:13.759
six and a half feet tall from where I was sitting,

263
00:15:13.919 --> 00:15:18.120
but it was hunched over, so I couldn't tell out

264
00:15:18.200 --> 00:15:19.080
seven foot tall.

265
00:15:19.360 --> 00:15:19.960
I didn't.

266
00:15:19.960 --> 00:15:23.240
I couldn't tell us like its body posture so much

267
00:15:23.360 --> 00:15:25.919
is that it just kept peeking from behind this tree.

268
00:15:26.000 --> 00:15:26.480
Yet us.

269
00:15:27.919 --> 00:15:31.840
Hold on to the side of the tree and look. Yeah,

270
00:15:31.919 --> 00:15:33.440
well see that's what I mean.

271
00:15:33.440 --> 00:15:36.000
Though I've been around them all my life, that one

272
00:15:36.039 --> 00:15:37.360
place I can't I can hear.

273
00:15:37.679 --> 00:15:40.000
Once you've seen these things, you're stuck with them.

274
00:15:40.200 --> 00:15:41.399
Well, and that's not fun.

275
00:15:41.840 --> 00:15:45.639
Well, look They've given everybody such a fear factor of everything.

276
00:15:46.240 --> 00:15:49.440
And they've been here for thousands of years, and people

277
00:15:49.480 --> 00:15:53.840
live the thousands of years, you know what I mean, right,

278
00:15:53.919 --> 00:15:56.360
But I'm not in that proof, so I get along

279
00:15:56.399 --> 00:15:59.879
with them. They come to my camp, this one place

280
00:16:01.039 --> 00:16:03.559
out in the middle of nowhere that I go camping

281
00:16:03.639 --> 00:16:06.120
all the time, and I can hear them across the

282
00:16:06.159 --> 00:16:11.240
creek up this little draw. It's not actual words or anything,

283
00:16:11.279 --> 00:16:14.480
but you can hear the boyes and laughing, and I

284
00:16:14.519 --> 00:16:18.600
mean it's like a family. They're like a family. They

285
00:16:18.639 --> 00:16:20.240
live together as a family unit.

286
00:16:20.679 --> 00:16:26.080
Like have you heard anything else that comes close to

287
00:16:26.080 --> 00:16:27.960
what you hear when you're out there camping?

288
00:16:32.080 --> 00:16:35.039
Only once in a while, but most of the time

289
00:16:35.080 --> 00:16:37.759
when they're in those close to people, they're they're up

290
00:16:37.799 --> 00:16:40.159
to something. You know, they're looking for a dog chained

291
00:16:40.200 --> 00:16:44.080
up outside, or chickens or or whatever. Yeah, whatever they

292
00:16:44.080 --> 00:16:46.240
can grab a hold of easy. They don't usually come

293
00:16:46.279 --> 00:16:50.919
in this close, so's noiseless. You hear tree knocks and

294
00:16:50.960 --> 00:16:54.080
stuff like close enough you can almost feel it in there.

295
00:16:54.559 --> 00:16:55.840
But we are pretty rural.

296
00:16:57.919 --> 00:17:02.240
Steve, I wanted to ask you about something, so first off,

297
00:17:02.279 --> 00:17:04.519
your you guys are saying this happened about six to

298
00:17:04.599 --> 00:17:06.519
seven years ago, so pretty recent.

299
00:17:08.200 --> 00:17:11.240
Maybe six years ago, okay. Okay.

300
00:17:12.039 --> 00:17:15.720
Also, Steve, you're saying you you have a photo that

301
00:17:15.839 --> 00:17:18.119
has a bigfoot captured in the photo.

302
00:17:20.319 --> 00:17:22.559
Yeah, it was watching us and there was none of

303
00:17:22.599 --> 00:17:25.599
us smelled anything. The dogs didn't even know.

304
00:17:26.319 --> 00:17:26.680
Wow.

305
00:17:27.359 --> 00:17:30.079
So it had to have been up. Send it down

306
00:17:30.119 --> 00:17:33.640
behind a little and look like it was. It was

307
00:17:33.720 --> 00:17:37.119
underneath this big old arch that had been pulled down.

308
00:17:37.160 --> 00:17:41.359
This tree was pulled down into an arch, and it

309
00:17:41.440 --> 00:17:42.119
was underneath that.

310
00:17:43.839 --> 00:17:44.640
Do you still have that?

311
00:17:47.039 --> 00:17:49.960
I do. I'll send it to you.

312
00:17:50.559 --> 00:17:53.079
I mean I I was just going to ask if

313
00:17:53.119 --> 00:17:55.039
you would be able to I would love to be

314
00:17:55.079 --> 00:17:58.720
able to take a look at that. That sounds extremely interesting.

315
00:18:00.799 --> 00:18:02.960
I'll send you the pictures of the trees that are

316
00:18:03.000 --> 00:18:07.000
all bunched and you know, woven into between each other too.

317
00:18:07.400 --> 00:18:11.240
Okay. And this TV thing, is that something i'd be

318
00:18:11.240 --> 00:18:14.480
able to share on like in the YouTube version?

319
00:18:14.880 --> 00:18:15.079
Yeah?

320
00:18:15.160 --> 00:18:16.839
Okay, cool, thank you.

321
00:18:16.960 --> 00:18:19.480
Yeah, not a problem.

322
00:18:19.519 --> 00:18:22.480
So you got four or five six? Do you have

323
00:18:22.519 --> 00:18:23.799
a picture of the footprint?

324
00:18:23.880 --> 00:18:26.359
I have to you, No, you.

325
00:18:26.319 --> 00:18:29.279
Don't have a picture of that's got a blaster cast of.

326
00:18:29.759 --> 00:18:32.559
One of these things feet and it's huge. Yeah. It

327
00:18:32.599 --> 00:18:34.480
was found in the cottage girls late bed.

328
00:18:34.920 --> 00:18:38.359
Oh and there was like a really.

329
00:18:38.559 --> 00:18:42.160
Under twenty two footprints in a row or something or cast.

330
00:18:42.240 --> 00:18:44.039
Do you have part of the track.

331
00:18:46.480 --> 00:18:48.799
You got? I have one of the footprints.

332
00:18:48.880 --> 00:18:51.200
My friend was one of the ones that put the

333
00:18:51.359 --> 00:18:55.319
plaster in the footprints, and he kept a few of them,

334
00:18:55.680 --> 00:18:58.240
and I was lucky enough to get one for Christmas

335
00:18:58.279 --> 00:19:03.200
one year. I got a cask of the cast. Jeff Meldrum,

336
00:19:03.599 --> 00:19:10.799
the professor Idaho State University, he has most of that trackway.

337
00:19:10.400 --> 00:19:15.559
I guess, Oh, really are you? Are you friends with Tobe?

338
00:19:20.279 --> 00:19:20.480
Yeah?

339
00:19:21.200 --> 00:19:25.359
Yeah, okay, cool, I am too, so yeah.

340
00:19:25.960 --> 00:19:26.799
Okay, all right.

341
00:19:28.559 --> 00:19:32.680
Yeah. I figured like it's not one of those things

342
00:19:32.720 --> 00:19:36.200
that too many people actually admit they're into.

343
00:19:36.920 --> 00:19:38.039
That happens to you.

344
00:19:38.160 --> 00:19:41.240
You have no choice, actually, him and I want adventuring.

345
00:19:42.720 --> 00:19:44.319
Oh really, I tried to.

346
00:19:44.279 --> 00:19:47.319
Take into the track to Canton and he ended up

347
00:19:47.359 --> 00:19:52.160
with a flat tire like a half a mile away.

348
00:19:52.920 --> 00:19:55.319
Yeah, we were just talking about that. We never made

349
00:19:55.359 --> 00:19:55.839
it up there.

350
00:19:55.880 --> 00:19:58.400
But you got to talk to another friend of mine,

351
00:19:58.440 --> 00:20:02.839
this elderly lady that uh she took him air and

352
00:20:02.960 --> 00:20:06.039
his tire and he got to talk to her for

353
00:20:06.079 --> 00:20:06.720
a while or too.

354
00:20:06.759 --> 00:20:08.000
That she grew up up there.

355
00:20:09.440 --> 00:20:10.839
That's awesome, Yeah.

356
00:20:10.839 --> 00:20:14.640
Pretty much. Hitting it the little swimmers and discuss dermal

357
00:20:14.720 --> 00:20:19.400
ridges in the sprint. Wow, it's the thing of beauty. Yeah,

358
00:20:19.480 --> 00:20:23.240
I keep it in print, wrapped in bubble wrapped. But

359
00:20:23.400 --> 00:20:25.319
she's like, I'll take it out and take a picture and.

360
00:20:27.559 --> 00:20:30.480
That would be awesome. Thank you, take a picture? Sorry?

361
00:20:30.519 --> 00:20:34.799
Have you have you shared that that area where you

362
00:20:34.880 --> 00:20:39.599
go camping in? Is that a place where where we're

363
00:20:39.599 --> 00:20:42.039
sharing where the location is or are we keeping that.

364
00:20:43.920 --> 00:20:49.279
Private so much? I grew up over in the Deadwood

365
00:20:49.279 --> 00:20:50.559
area and it's.

366
00:20:50.519 --> 00:20:51.640
Up in the mountains from there.

367
00:20:52.000 --> 00:20:58.079
Okay, got it? Yeah, yeah, so dead with Oregon.

368
00:20:58.240 --> 00:21:02.200
Like I said, I've been going her and I've seen

369
00:21:02.240 --> 00:21:05.400
them walk down the road like above because it's a

370
00:21:05.400 --> 00:21:10.200
big meta but and it's along the tree and I

371
00:21:10.200 --> 00:21:13.200
can hear them over like this other treek comes down

372
00:21:13.200 --> 00:21:15.480
the hill and I can hear her, but at the

373
00:21:15.559 --> 00:21:18.319
other voices and laughing and stuff come down that little

374
00:21:18.400 --> 00:21:21.519
draw Gods, and I don't want to disturb anything like that,

375
00:21:22.119 --> 00:21:23.279
you know what I'm saying.

376
00:21:24.160 --> 00:21:24.759
He'll go there.

377
00:21:24.799 --> 00:21:28.359
I don't feel feel any kind of distress or any

378
00:21:28.400 --> 00:21:30.279
kind of thing when I go there. I've been going

379
00:21:30.319 --> 00:21:34.400
there for years by myself, and like the only encounters

380
00:21:34.440 --> 00:21:37.079
I've had are they've been in my camp. I leave

381
00:21:37.160 --> 00:21:40.240
stuff out, They've thrown it off, like they know what

382
00:21:40.279 --> 00:21:43.000
I can share and they're happy with that I shared.

383
00:21:43.200 --> 00:21:46.200
Like that's how I get treated, Like, I don't want

384
00:21:46.200 --> 00:21:49.400
to do anything that causes that to be interrupted.

385
00:21:50.160 --> 00:21:54.839
Absolutely, Gil Christ, So you guys still dealing with things

386
00:21:54.920 --> 00:21:56.839
over there in current.

387
00:21:56.640 --> 00:22:00.680
Day, Oh, we hear things all the time.

388
00:22:00.920 --> 00:22:04.079
Yeah, well it's only been what I've been home for

389
00:22:04.160 --> 00:22:08.160
a week from my mom's Like, uh so within the

390
00:22:08.279 --> 00:22:12.359
last week, it was probably one o'clock in the morning

391
00:22:12.680 --> 00:22:16.680
because my boyfriend works until two thirty. So I was

392
00:22:16.680 --> 00:22:19.559
taking the dog outside and he got almost to the

393
00:22:19.680 --> 00:22:21.799
edge of the debt and he wouldn't go any further.

394
00:22:22.359 --> 00:22:26.160
And it smelled like a pig had rolled in, vomited

395
00:22:26.319 --> 00:22:29.400
and climbed out of the garbage scan it was. It

396
00:22:29.480 --> 00:22:30.079
was horrible.

397
00:22:30.279 --> 00:22:32.960
Yeah, I know that, And that was just within the

398
00:22:33.000 --> 00:22:33.599
last week.

399
00:22:33.920 --> 00:22:38.720
Wow, Oh they're around, this is the time you come

400
00:22:38.799 --> 00:22:40.200
back actually, mm hmm.

401
00:22:40.319 --> 00:22:41.079
Well it's cold.

402
00:22:41.160 --> 00:22:45.400
They don't have the regular food sources that are usually available.

403
00:22:46.839 --> 00:22:48.279
You tend to follow the deer around.

404
00:22:48.319 --> 00:22:49.000
I know that.

405
00:22:51.160 --> 00:22:51.640
I heard that.

406
00:22:55.359 --> 00:22:58.079
Yeah, this isn't the time they head over that way,

407
00:22:59.200 --> 00:23:02.640
I think. Yeah, the Oak Ridge area is pretty forest

408
00:23:02.680 --> 00:23:03.279
prime evil.

409
00:23:03.480 --> 00:23:05.759
Well, it doesn't get as cold as it doesn't matter either,

410
00:23:05.960 --> 00:23:08.200
you know, and they do end up going that way,

411
00:23:08.240 --> 00:23:10.799
I'm sure. Well, it's the west side of the mountain too,

412
00:23:10.839 --> 00:23:11.839
there's always water.

413
00:23:11.920 --> 00:23:13.079
Yeah, mm hmm.

414
00:23:13.160 --> 00:23:17.000
Okay, that's very interesting. So there's always a water source

415
00:23:17.039 --> 00:23:21.400
over there. Okay, yeah, well.

416
00:23:21.200 --> 00:23:24.400
Yeah, your bridge side of the mountains up where it's

417
00:23:24.599 --> 00:23:28.119
kind of far between, there's fit to Shoots.

418
00:23:27.839 --> 00:23:31.079
River and Little the Shoes. Yeah, there's light in Little

419
00:23:31.079 --> 00:23:34.759
Off Shoots. Yeah, but it's not like that side of

420
00:23:34.799 --> 00:23:35.799
the hill where it's wet.

421
00:23:36.079 --> 00:23:38.920
Yeah, it's It surprised me how close they were to

422
00:23:39.480 --> 00:23:44.960
people they get in. I mean they're within walking distance

423
00:23:45.000 --> 00:23:48.799
of the neighbors really.

424
00:23:50.839 --> 00:23:51.559
And here too.

425
00:23:51.640 --> 00:23:53.880
Yeah, I could think it well outfullly, just hop and

426
00:23:53.880 --> 00:23:54.799
skip and jump.

427
00:23:54.599 --> 00:23:55.319
Right to my house.

428
00:23:55.880 --> 00:23:57.599
Oh yeah, and he has if.

429
00:23:57.480 --> 00:24:02.359
I heard him around my house going. I know, there's

430
00:24:02.359 --> 00:24:04.920
no way that somebody could just walk over the top

431
00:24:04.960 --> 00:24:07.640
of my fence. But I heard something do it, and

432
00:24:07.680 --> 00:24:12.279
then I heard heard something go law really loud, and

433
00:24:12.359 --> 00:24:14.400
it picked me out, so I went in the house.

434
00:24:15.319 --> 00:24:17.640
Oh man, so it like walked right over your fence.

435
00:24:17.680 --> 00:24:18.440
You're saying.

436
00:24:20.519 --> 00:24:22.920
It stepped right over my fence. The fence is probably

437
00:24:22.920 --> 00:24:26.480
about four four and a half, but it just walked

438
00:24:26.559 --> 00:24:29.880
right over the top of it. Because I didn't hear

439
00:24:29.920 --> 00:24:31.960
no chain rattle or nothing on the fence. It just

440
00:24:32.000 --> 00:24:33.400
walked right over the top of it.

441
00:24:34.480 --> 00:24:37.200
Have you talked to any of your neighbors to see

442
00:24:37.200 --> 00:24:39.759
if they've been experiencing weird things as well?

443
00:24:41.960 --> 00:24:43.640
I'm afraid they're going to think I'm nuts.

444
00:24:43.720 --> 00:24:44.720
I living a.

445
00:24:46.599 --> 00:24:46.799
Sure.

446
00:24:47.119 --> 00:24:47.359
Yeah.

447
00:24:47.440 --> 00:24:51.279
Really, I haven't really talked to people. Okay, I'm a

448
00:24:51.279 --> 00:24:52.119
few people I have.

449
00:24:52.599 --> 00:24:56.839
Yeah, yeah, I don't really not scared. People think I

450
00:24:56.880 --> 00:25:00.279
don't care what they think of me, But I isn't

451
00:25:00.400 --> 00:25:04.480

455
00:25:15.720 --> 00:25:17.480
pretty easy one.

456
00:25:19.440 --> 00:25:25.160
People are they go, you finally lost it?

457
00:25:30.359 --> 00:25:31.839
That's what you know?

460
00:25:41.640 --> 00:25:45.720
I know too, I'm not the only one that saw

461
00:25:45.839 --> 00:25:46.440

uh east, in the west of Waldo Lake called Spirit Lake.

469
00:26:22.720 --> 00:26:25.359
Have you ever heard of that area?

470
00:26:26.480 --> 00:26:26.720

Really, but there are several different lakes around here that

474
00:26:36.480 --> 00:26:38.079
I heard things about.

475
00:26:38.599 --> 00:26:40.759
Really understand, General.

476
00:26:41.960 --> 00:26:45.039
Quinn Meadows is near one of those Eye lakes up there,

477
00:26:45.599 --> 00:26:49.400
and that's where my sister was first happenings they down

478
00:26:49.480 --> 00:26:54.680
footprints around the trails where someone's it's like the red

479
00:26:55.759 --> 00:26:58.319
there's up there in the hills of the sixties.

480
00:26:59.799 --> 00:27:03.839
This finger. Yeah, there's like a pit. Yeah that's okay.

481
00:27:03.880 --> 00:27:05.079
That's on Hardway fifty eight.

482
00:27:05.359 --> 00:27:09.079
Okay, well that road we were driving up it when

483
00:27:09.160 --> 00:27:12.039
they even Lloyd saw it. He had to admit to

484
00:27:12.039 --> 00:27:14.480
me that he saw that thing across the road. The

485
00:27:14.839 --> 00:27:18.759
run there. Yeah, and that was just last summer. That's

486
00:27:18.799 --> 00:27:22.799
the cutoff road from Cresson to crestons and.

487
00:27:22.839 --> 00:27:29.359
Lake, Okay, and it goes across to UH to Gilcrest.

488
00:27:29.160 --> 00:27:33.480
Thede Lakes Highway, the Cascade Lakes Highway.

489
00:27:33.160 --> 00:27:35.559
Turns a lot of good across that road.

490
00:27:36.240 --> 00:27:37.799
Okay, it'll take.

491
00:27:37.680 --> 00:27:40.960
You to fifty eight. The hells off of that road,

492
00:27:41.599 --> 00:27:43.680
but it's the same one that you turn to go

493
00:27:43.799 --> 00:27:48.240
to the Cascade Lake where like wall the lakes and stuff.

494
00:27:48.279 --> 00:27:51.839
It's just all gons where all those lakes are. Okay, So,

495
00:27:52.519 --> 00:27:56.920
like we're in that general area. Last summer, we saw

496
00:27:57.000 --> 00:28:00.880
and Uh run across the road about one hundred yards

497
00:28:00.960 --> 00:28:04.240
in front of us. But it was broad daylight and

498
00:28:05.079 --> 00:28:08.240
there was no way that it could have been anything

499
00:28:08.319 --> 00:28:10.279
but exactly what it was, you.

500
00:28:10.200 --> 00:28:10.720
Know what I mean.

501
00:28:10.960 --> 00:28:12.200
Wow, that's wild.

502
00:28:12.720 --> 00:28:17.000
My boys, the terrible skeptics of anything like that. He's

503
00:28:17.000 --> 00:28:19.599
always telling me I'm crazy and not kind.

504
00:28:19.480 --> 00:28:22.480
Of shit, and so well I made him admit to

505
00:28:22.519 --> 00:28:23.960
me that he thought it too.

506
00:28:24.599 --> 00:28:29.240
So that tells you something that's wild. I mean, I've

507
00:28:29.279 --> 00:28:32.680
heard of road crossings even on fifty eight.

508
00:28:35.519 --> 00:28:39.039
Yeah, oh yeah, and on ninety seven they're all over

509
00:28:39.440 --> 00:28:44.319
Actually people just don't really look yact. They're too scared.

510
00:28:44.359 --> 00:28:47.480
Once they find them, they're all freaked out. Well, they're

511
00:28:47.960 --> 00:28:51.200
like any other animals. They're an animal. You got to

512
00:28:51.200 --> 00:28:54.119
treat them with respect like you would any other animals.

513
00:28:54.279 --> 00:28:56.240
I wouldn't walk up on a bull out and try

514
00:28:56.240 --> 00:28:58.519
to like pet it. No pet it either. You know

515
00:28:59.079 --> 00:29:03.279
there's wild animals do and yeah, he just if you

516
00:29:03.359 --> 00:29:06.079
have that kind of respect for I've seen people try.

517
00:29:06.559 --> 00:29:11.000
How about how about the the Subtle Lake area? Have

518
00:29:11.079 --> 00:29:12.680
you ever heard of anything up there?

519
00:29:14.160 --> 00:29:18.480
I have heard stuff about the Subtle Lake. I've heard

520
00:29:18.519 --> 00:29:21.880
people talk about things being thrown in the lake right

521
00:29:21.920 --> 00:29:22.559
next to him.

522
00:29:23.160 --> 00:29:23.960
Oh really.

523
00:29:25.240 --> 00:29:30.960
Big, you know, and they couldn't fish because big rocks.

524
00:29:31.240 --> 00:29:33.920
And they say it wasn't rolling down the hill, but

525
00:29:33.960 --> 00:29:36.519
it was thrown through the trees, right, That's how that

526
00:29:36.759 --> 00:29:43.920
was at night and they weren't little so they couldn't fish.

527
00:29:44.440 --> 00:29:46.880
That's really interesting. That's an area I've been hearing a

528
00:29:46.920 --> 00:29:47.440
lot about.

529
00:29:47.799 --> 00:29:54.519
Yeah, mhm, there's a lot of activity around there, around

530
00:29:54.519 --> 00:29:55.599
everywhere around.

531
00:29:55.359 --> 00:29:59.279
Here, like anywhere in this area. You pick, you pick

532
00:29:59.319 --> 00:30:03.039
a location and there's stuff going on. It is I

533
00:30:03.079 --> 00:30:04.079
don't know what it is.

534
00:30:07.319 --> 00:30:07.960
Like this one.

535
00:30:08.319 --> 00:30:10.599
I saw this one video and it was right out here,

536
00:30:11.200 --> 00:30:15.880
going towards Christmas Valley on high Way thirty one near

537
00:30:16.000 --> 00:30:16.599
La Pine.

538
00:30:17.519 --> 00:30:37.160
Big for Society will be right back after these messages, okay.

539
00:30:36.839 --> 00:30:40.319
And the people got this video of this bigfoot running

540
00:30:40.359 --> 00:30:46.279
through the what does it those trees code? Oh junifer

541
00:30:46.480 --> 00:30:49.599
juniper trees and these scenes go to these trees and

542
00:30:49.759 --> 00:30:52.400
eat the berries off of them to get drunk, I guess.

543
00:30:54.119 --> 00:30:55.920
But they got a video of the see was running

544
00:30:55.920 --> 00:30:59.359
from him and it got away.

545
00:31:01.319 --> 00:31:04.640
I'm gonna look that. I think I found the video.

546
00:31:04.720 --> 00:31:07.960
I'm gonna watch this after the interview, but it looks

547
00:31:07.960 --> 00:31:13.039
like it's from twenty twelve. Yeah, yeah, I'm gonna check

548
00:31:13.079 --> 00:31:14.920
that out. I don't think i've ever seen that one.

549
00:31:14.960 --> 00:31:17.519
That's very interesting, so we'll check that out later.

550
00:31:17.599 --> 00:31:20.440
Oh yeah, you can see it, but you really you

551
00:31:20.519 --> 00:31:22.880
really can't see its face, but you can see.

552
00:31:22.680 --> 00:31:25.319
Its legs and stuff walking through the trees and then

553
00:31:25.440 --> 00:31:27.559
running really fast.

554
00:31:27.839 --> 00:31:33.559
I haven't walked down the road that spot, right, No

555
00:31:33.680 --> 00:31:37.119
other hazard arounds for miles and see one walked by

556
00:31:37.240 --> 00:31:38.519
on the road.

557
00:31:39.319 --> 00:31:42.039
It's kind of a trip. Yeah, it is so small.

558
00:31:42.640 --> 00:31:45.359
Have you heard anything over by the Mackenzie Bridge area,

559
00:31:50.640 --> 00:31:52.480
not the bridge itself.

560
00:31:52.559 --> 00:31:56.359
No, I've heard around the area. Blue River is like

561
00:31:56.839 --> 00:31:59.519
up the mountain from Blue River. I've heard some stories.

562
00:32:00.079 --> 00:32:04.240
And that's kind of like kind of the same area.

563
00:32:04.079 --> 00:32:09.319
As a pro flave, gotcha.

564
00:32:10.000 --> 00:32:14.839
Yeah, a lot of sudd on fifty eight and I

565
00:32:14.880 --> 00:32:17.319
grew up over where there was a whole lot of

566
00:32:17.359 --> 00:32:20.599
old timers that were timber followers and had been in

567
00:32:20.640 --> 00:32:23.839
the woods for like thirty five years. You know, they

568
00:32:23.880 --> 00:32:27.480
had seen everything, really and I heard lots of.

569
00:32:27.559 --> 00:32:28.680
Stories from the old guy.

570
00:32:29.440 --> 00:32:32.839
Yeah. I worked in a little restaurant and day. They

571
00:32:33.039 --> 00:32:35.640
loved to babbles, you know, over coffee in the morning.

572
00:32:35.759 --> 00:32:39.880
So I heard all kinds of really amazing things.

573
00:32:39.680 --> 00:32:40.319
On the sleep.

574
00:32:40.839 --> 00:32:43.200
Do you remember any of the things they would share

575
00:32:43.240 --> 00:32:45.880
with you, like, any of the things they would see.

576
00:32:45.799 --> 00:32:51.440
Or oh well, I mean they just like they have to.

577
00:32:51.960 --> 00:32:54.920
We both saw and go for a walk and be

578
00:32:55.079 --> 00:32:58.599
squatted down and see things walk by, and you know,

579
00:32:58.839 --> 00:33:03.440
things would move, trees like big branches that shouldn't have

580
00:33:03.480 --> 00:33:07.880
moved were like drug to a pile, and different things

581
00:33:07.920 --> 00:33:09.319
like there's.

582
00:33:09.640 --> 00:33:11.440
A I don't know all of them. If I sat

583
00:33:11.480 --> 00:33:12.200
and really.

584
00:33:11.920 --> 00:33:14.759
Thought, I could probably remember a lot more of them,

585
00:33:15.000 --> 00:33:18.279
but this one old guy, he was always telling these stories,

586
00:33:18.599 --> 00:33:24.079
different things he thought, And yeah, he saw a mother

587
00:33:25.039 --> 00:33:33.119
with a baby at one point, but that was probably wow.

588
00:33:33.319 --> 00:33:36.359
I don't even know if I was born yet, honestly,

589
00:33:37.480 --> 00:33:42.119
probably like the early seventies, late sixties, early seventies to

590
00:33:42.319 --> 00:33:47.759
maybe the mid seventies, Like the story I heard.

591
00:33:49.039 --> 00:33:52.880
My dad was showing me. He was a logger, and

592
00:33:52.920 --> 00:33:56.079
he would tell me things about things out in the

593
00:33:56.079 --> 00:33:59.160
woods in the middle of the night on these ridges,

594
00:33:59.640 --> 00:34:04.079
walking around screaming and yelling all night long, and he

595
00:34:04.119 --> 00:34:07.200
didn't like it, so he'd shoot his gun into the

596
00:34:07.240 --> 00:34:09.440
air and it would stop him for a while, but

597
00:34:10.079 --> 00:34:11.079
he didn't know what it was.

598
00:34:14.519 --> 00:34:18.679
Do you think that the rangers are in the forestry

599
00:34:18.679 --> 00:34:21.559
workers are aware of what's in the woods as well.

600
00:34:23.599 --> 00:34:25.880
I think a lot of them are.

601
00:34:26.480 --> 00:34:29.159
If they aren't, they don't spend enough time doing their job.

602
00:34:29.280 --> 00:34:29.960
And I'm like.

603
00:34:31.920 --> 00:34:34.159
A lot of them are totally aware of these things.

604
00:34:35.199 --> 00:34:37.880
A lot of them help cover these things up. I

605
00:34:37.920 --> 00:34:41.719
don't know why, why are they trying to cover this

606
00:34:41.800 --> 00:34:43.480
stuff up. I don't understand that.

607
00:34:44.320 --> 00:34:44.960
It's just like.

608
00:34:45.960 --> 00:34:49.599
Spaceships or you know, they have a scare tactic and

609
00:34:49.679 --> 00:34:53.000
they be afraid of it, and they have if you

610
00:34:53.039 --> 00:34:55.199
say anything, a certain amount of people that go missing

611
00:34:55.280 --> 00:35:00.280
every year that's on there. You know, let's be well,

612
00:35:00.599 --> 00:35:03.679
will they make a deal with someone likely?

613
00:35:04.320 --> 00:35:06.639
Do you think there there is a large amount of

614
00:35:06.639 --> 00:35:09.480
people that get that sorry, that go missing every year

615
00:35:09.519 --> 00:35:10.199
in this region.

616
00:35:12.639 --> 00:35:14.880
There are a lot of people. Yeah, even all the time.

617
00:35:15.519 --> 00:35:18.800
Yeah, that was just like in the last five years

618
00:35:18.880 --> 00:35:21.159
that I can remember, there's been like three people just

619
00:35:21.239 --> 00:35:26.960
a crater late witnesses. Yep, wow, to my knowledge, to

620
00:35:27.039 --> 00:35:28.360
my knowledge, they were never found.

621
00:35:29.039 --> 00:35:31.800
Some were, but oh really all I found was the

622
00:35:31.840 --> 00:35:37.320
bones and well, yeah.

623
00:35:37.239 --> 00:35:39.920
Just the did you say, just the live.

624
00:35:39.800 --> 00:35:43.880
In just the bones and it was in the sitting position.

625
00:35:45.679 --> 00:35:48.280
Are you serious?

626
00:35:48.800 --> 00:35:51.039
With parts of the clothing attached to it?

627
00:35:51.119 --> 00:35:55.360
Still? And not just say one one in one place?

628
00:35:56.280 --> 00:35:59.280
Is three of them hiking trailers.

629
00:35:59.360 --> 00:36:00.199
There's one up.

630
00:36:00.199 --> 00:36:02.639
While we're walking around along the trail at Greater Lake,

631
00:36:03.599 --> 00:36:06.519
and all of a sudden, her husband just started walking

632
00:36:06.559 --> 00:36:08.000
towards the edge, jumped.

633
00:36:07.719 --> 00:36:10.960
Off, jumped off into the lake.

634
00:36:13.639 --> 00:36:17.360
Yeah, off the place, Oh my goodness. And then he

635
00:36:17.440 --> 00:36:19.920
said that you're still alive at the bottom, and he

636
00:36:20.039 --> 00:36:21.079
crawled into the water.

637
00:36:21.159 --> 00:36:23.800
And drain stuff. I don't understand that.

638
00:36:25.679 --> 00:36:28.480
I don't know. I've never heard anything like that.

639
00:36:28.480 --> 00:36:30.800
That is wow.

640
00:36:31.159 --> 00:36:35.079
I was talking to one of my acquaintances in the

641
00:36:35.119 --> 00:36:38.960
Bend area, Randy, and he was telling me that that

642
00:36:39.199 --> 00:36:43.159
area west of Crater Lake is known for some really

643
00:36:43.199 --> 00:36:47.559
aggressive bigfoot encounters, so much so that the locals in

644
00:36:47.599 --> 00:36:51.119
that area will call it badfoot instead of bigfoot, which

645
00:36:51.159 --> 00:36:54.320
is really interesting. Have you guys heard anything down in

646
00:36:54.360 --> 00:36:54.880
that area.

647
00:36:55.000 --> 00:37:00.000
Yeah, yeah, I used to go fishing.

648
00:37:00.199 --> 00:37:02.760
I lived at Sutherland for a while, and I used

649
00:37:02.760 --> 00:37:08.000
to go fishing at Loamolo Lake, and uh, there was

650
00:37:08.079 --> 00:37:11.119
times my dog would cower around my feet while we

651
00:37:11.119 --> 00:37:15.599
were fishing there. And my dog was a big dog.

652
00:37:15.639 --> 00:37:18.880
He wasn't really afraid, so I'm figuring that it was

653
00:37:18.920 --> 00:37:20.719
probably something to do with that.

654
00:37:21.239 --> 00:37:21.719
Yeah.

655
00:37:22.000 --> 00:37:24.000
I keep my eyes in ears open all the time

656
00:37:24.039 --> 00:37:25.239
when I'm in the woods.

657
00:37:24.960 --> 00:37:29.119
Now, well my ears especially because everything goes too silent.

658
00:37:29.599 --> 00:37:34.159
There's something up. Yeah, I usually have that feeling that

659
00:37:34.360 --> 00:37:35.119
something's around.

660
00:37:35.440 --> 00:37:37.599
Oh yeah, I mean when when I was out in

661
00:37:37.599 --> 00:37:43.079
the woods in Oakridge, like, we experienced that extreme quiet

662
00:37:43.159 --> 00:37:46.480
multiple times, and it just it really messes with you.

663
00:37:46.679 --> 00:37:49.320
Like I I wasn't able to handle it. It was

664
00:37:49.480 --> 00:37:50.320
it was too.

665
00:37:50.159 --> 00:37:58.320
Quiet right here. Yeah, it's like perfect silence. It's almost

666
00:37:58.400 --> 00:38:02.199
hurt your ears, you know, And like then tonight is

667
00:38:02.599 --> 00:38:03.039
kicks in.

668
00:38:05.360 --> 00:38:09.800
That's true. Well unless you have that all the time anyways.

669
00:38:09.480 --> 00:38:15.599
You know, yeah, right, you don't know it totally all

670
00:38:15.639 --> 00:38:15.920
the time.

671
00:38:17.400 --> 00:38:20.280
You hear a lot of things about this area. You

672
00:38:20.360 --> 00:38:25.960
hear a lot of sightings crossing the road. I don't

673
00:38:26.000 --> 00:38:29.280
think I've heard a ton of aggressive encounters.

674
00:38:29.360 --> 00:38:32.400
That I had was I was out on my back

675
00:38:32.480 --> 00:38:36.320
porch which is being closed with a big tarp all

676
00:38:36.320 --> 00:38:39.159
the way around it, and something was there. I could

677
00:38:39.199 --> 00:38:42.760
smell that stink like Tracy was talking about. And I

678
00:38:42.880 --> 00:38:46.079
was walking towards the edge of the tarp and something

679
00:38:46.199 --> 00:38:47.559
smacked it really hard.

680
00:38:48.559 --> 00:38:49.159
It scared me.

681
00:38:49.199 --> 00:38:53.119
So I want the house again, oh man. And then

682
00:38:53.159 --> 00:38:55.519
I had all these trees out in my backyard just

683
00:38:55.599 --> 00:38:57.599
twisted into not into.

684
00:38:57.639 --> 00:39:01.000
Like a big nest, we've twisted out.

685
00:39:01.199 --> 00:39:02.280
How near your house?

686
00:39:02.400 --> 00:39:06.599
Was that about thirty feet?

687
00:39:06.760 --> 00:39:08.320
Oh boy, that's too close.

688
00:39:10.920 --> 00:39:13.519
Yeah that was before I had my entire yard fence.

689
00:39:15.320 --> 00:39:16.119
I need a fence.

690
00:39:18.239 --> 00:39:20.360
Most of it is like a six and a half

691
00:39:20.360 --> 00:39:23.320
foot expence, but some of it is only like a

692
00:39:23.360 --> 00:39:25.159
four and a half foot fence, and that's the ones

693
00:39:25.239 --> 00:39:28.079
they walk over, right, Yeah, mine doesn't have one at all.

694
00:39:28.679 --> 00:39:33.239
Have have either of you experienced any other interesting things

695
00:39:33.280 --> 00:39:35.159
you would relate to bigfoot?

696
00:39:35.280 --> 00:39:38.400
Give me time in I'll tell you more. It happens

697
00:39:38.400 --> 00:39:38.880
all the time.

698
00:39:38.920 --> 00:39:42.239
When I you, oh yeah, absolutely, it'll keep happening.

699
00:39:42.360 --> 00:39:45.679
Yeah, yeah, oh yeah.

700
00:39:45.760 --> 00:39:48.360
Sometimes I won't even want to take my dog out

701
00:39:48.400 --> 00:39:50.039
because I think there's something out there.

702
00:39:50.559 --> 00:39:51.880
Well, I hear things.

703
00:39:51.960 --> 00:39:55.679
I hear them moaning and howling and hitting trees and.

704
00:39:56.159 --> 00:39:58.519
Well, it's pretty bad when the coyotes clit. Yeah, and

705
00:39:59.280 --> 00:40:00.719
kayo's a lot around.

706
00:40:00.840 --> 00:40:02.559
I think they get out of their way a little

707
00:40:02.599 --> 00:40:07.519
bit too, so quit you'll hear that howl and everything

708
00:40:07.559 --> 00:40:11.679
else to lose. Yeah, and I've heard tree knocks. It's

709
00:40:13.320 --> 00:40:14.320
right near us.

710
00:40:14.480 --> 00:40:17.079
Yeah, you can almost feel the air moving like Well,

711
00:40:17.199 --> 00:40:19.119
it didn't help that I was knocking on the tree

712
00:40:19.159 --> 00:40:20.119
a little earlier, though.

713
00:40:22.000 --> 00:40:26.880
You're getting wrapped up, okay, planning on it.

714
00:40:27.000 --> 00:40:27.480
I was just.

715
00:40:28.960 --> 00:40:32.440
Goodbody. Later on, I heard this really loud and right

716
00:40:32.559 --> 00:40:35.920
close to me. Well, yeah, it's really eerie though, to

717
00:40:35.960 --> 00:40:39.239
be out there at night, because I'm long and my

718
00:40:39.400 --> 00:40:41.880
stupid dog would probably hide behind me if there was

719
00:40:41.960 --> 00:40:42.880
really something wrong.

720
00:40:43.559 --> 00:40:47.039
It's like it's kind of spooky and he goes across

721
00:40:47.079 --> 00:40:49.159
the road for me. But that's still quite a hot

722
00:40:49.280 --> 00:40:49.480
you know.

723
00:40:50.519 --> 00:40:55.159
But yeah, it's it's it's kind of sketchy knowing something's

724
00:40:55.239 --> 00:40:58.880
right there and you can't see it, right, Smellet you

725
00:40:58.880 --> 00:41:01.119
can hear it, just like I don't know, you can

726
00:41:01.239 --> 00:41:04.519
really feel it more man, Yeah, like I don't know.

727
00:41:04.960 --> 00:41:09.159
Thirty yards from my house is well, that's where I

728
00:41:09.199 --> 00:41:11.760
hear the extree knocks from. Is probably that far away,

729
00:41:12.199 --> 00:41:15.880
probably thirty yards. I'll usually walk out, I've the front

730
00:41:15.920 --> 00:41:17.800
dating and put my flash right out.

731
00:41:18.559 --> 00:41:21.199
Yeah, look for I've all as far as though I've seen.

732
00:41:23.599 --> 00:41:26.039
And they're not on the ground, Like, no, they're high.

733
00:41:26.480 --> 00:41:27.800
How high up? Would you say?

734
00:41:27.679 --> 00:41:32.880
The deer's too high? Two eyes right?

735
00:41:32.920 --> 00:41:33.320
Too high?

736
00:41:33.440 --> 00:41:33.639
Yeah?

737
00:41:33.679 --> 00:41:34.119
I get you.

738
00:41:35.840 --> 00:41:38.639
Get around the tree. You know that their eyes are

739
00:41:38.639 --> 00:41:43.039
about a deer. Yeah, they're like and usually three yard

740
00:41:43.079 --> 00:41:46.199
I see it. Yeah, it's kind of goldie green colors here.

741
00:41:46.920 --> 00:41:48.440
Storry yards are filled with trees.

742
00:41:49.199 --> 00:41:54.559
Yes, Now, let me ask you this. So I talked

743
00:41:54.599 --> 00:41:57.639
to a lot of people about the Ukridge area, and

744
00:41:57.679 --> 00:42:01.559
every once in a while in the interviews, there'll be

745
00:42:01.639 --> 00:42:06.239
other weird stuff that comes out, and it's not Bigfoot

746
00:42:06.400 --> 00:42:12.599
related at all. I've had people say, yeah, alien aliens

747
00:42:13.679 --> 00:42:15.800
like that, I've heard that. But I've also heard things

748
00:42:15.880 --> 00:42:21.320
like that, fairies, gnomes, stuff like that. Oh you've heard

749
00:42:21.320 --> 00:42:23.239
dog Man in this area.

750
00:42:23.760 --> 00:42:31.199
Really, I haven't heard anything about around here that I've

751
00:42:31.199 --> 00:42:33.840
heard about them in other places.

752
00:42:33.960 --> 00:42:35.480
Okay, but not in this area.

753
00:42:35.679 --> 00:42:40.000
That's good, not in this area that I'm from.

754
00:42:40.039 --> 00:42:45.920
But who knows. You never know. I mean, anything can happen.

755
00:42:46.000 --> 00:42:49.079
That's true. But it is a beauty.

756
00:42:49.119 --> 00:42:50.800
It's it's the.

757
00:42:50.760 --> 00:42:54.480
Beautiful, the most beautiful area I've ever seen. But it

758
00:42:54.599 --> 00:42:58.599
is also the most weirdest, the most weird area I've

759
00:42:58.639 --> 00:43:01.559
ever experienced. I don't know what it.

760
00:43:01.519 --> 00:43:04.559
Is, but it's weirdly idea.

761
00:43:05.639 --> 00:43:07.719
Well, it's funny you say I should say something about

762
00:43:07.719 --> 00:43:14.079
flying saucers, because right just behind Tracy's property, I see

763
00:43:14.239 --> 00:43:17.519
this thing going back and forth with the red all

764
00:43:17.679 --> 00:43:20.639
the time, and when I flash my light at it,

765
00:43:20.639 --> 00:43:21.880
it goes behind the trees.

766
00:43:22.239 --> 00:43:23.960
I told you that I have that orbit that rides

767
00:43:24.039 --> 00:43:27.039
with me in my car. It's weird, rights and this

768
00:43:27.119 --> 00:43:30.400
thing is flashing all kinds of colors. I took a

769
00:43:30.440 --> 00:43:30.920
picture of it.

770
00:43:31.000 --> 00:43:33.639
Remember I told you that I have that picture of it.

771
00:43:33.719 --> 00:43:36.960
Sometimes I think they're involved, but I don't know. I

772
00:43:36.960 --> 00:43:39.760
think that there's something too it because I think they

773
00:43:39.800 --> 00:43:41.159
know each other life.

774
00:43:41.960 --> 00:43:45.079
Yeah, they probably do know it. Yeah, there you go. Uh,

775
00:43:45.199 --> 00:43:47.159
let me ask Let me ask you this. So you

776
00:43:47.199 --> 00:43:53.920
guys have experienced the what we call bigfoot multiple different

777
00:43:54.159 --> 00:43:57.599
times in this area. If you were to have to

778
00:43:57.639 --> 00:44:01.760
categorize it, would you categorize it as some kind of

779
00:44:01.840 --> 00:44:05.519
big monkey in the woods or some kind of human

780
00:44:06.199 --> 00:44:09.519
type creature or how how would you describe it?

781
00:44:11.199 --> 00:44:15.559
I think it's like, I think it's a very variant

782
00:44:15.639 --> 00:44:20.639
of some sort. It's a very very giant Indian intelligent,

783
00:44:20.800 --> 00:44:25.360
like covered in hair, very intelligent. It's more humilated is ape,

784
00:44:25.519 --> 00:44:30.199
you know what I mean. Yeah, it's very intelligent or aware,

785
00:44:30.440 --> 00:44:37.000
and they know very intelligent. They speak, yeah, well not

786
00:44:37.119 --> 00:44:39.679
in r worship, but they do have their own.

787
00:44:39.760 --> 00:44:43.159
But I've heard people hearing French come out of them

788
00:44:43.239 --> 00:44:46.880
and Indian words come out of them. They've got to

789
00:44:46.960 --> 00:44:47.960
picked up on some of it.

790
00:44:48.079 --> 00:44:50.719
So oh yeah, or we picked up on something?

791
00:44:51.440 --> 00:44:53.719
Is that from this area?

792
00:44:54.920 --> 00:44:57.320
It's all over the place. I actually.

793
00:44:59.079 --> 00:45:01.880
The place I go MP and all the time, I've

794
00:45:01.920 --> 00:45:05.719
actually heard voices and laughter and stuff coming from across

795
00:45:05.719 --> 00:45:10.920
the creek. Like you can tell it's like different voices,

796
00:45:11.039 --> 00:45:14.679
but there's no actual like you can't hear words like

797
00:45:14.760 --> 00:45:18.360
you would hear. Yeah, it's just the sound of voices

798
00:45:18.519 --> 00:45:20.639
and laughter and like.

799
00:45:21.559 --> 00:45:23.760
So I know they have a language. I know they're

800
00:45:23.880 --> 00:45:27.239
very intelligent, or they would have been in a zoo

801
00:45:27.320 --> 00:45:27.639
right now.

802
00:45:28.320 --> 00:45:31.079
Big, so society will be right back after these messages.

803
00:45:48.800 --> 00:45:50.159
I would have to classify them.

804
00:45:50.400 --> 00:45:54.639
They're very intelligent. Why I leave man, you know, but

805
00:45:55.400 --> 00:45:58.679
as their body is more primate, so they can handle

806
00:45:58.679 --> 00:46:01.880
the environment right more more like a mandrago.

807
00:46:02.719 --> 00:46:07.199
But yeah, but they have intelligence like we do or

808
00:46:07.280 --> 00:46:13.280
more more. They live for the land, not to destroy it.

809
00:46:13.559 --> 00:46:16.960
There you go, Yeah, that's great, that's a great way.

810
00:46:16.840 --> 00:46:20.840
To put it. What they need they don't. Well, that's

811
00:46:20.920 --> 00:46:23.639
that's why the Indians lived here for thousands of towns, right,

812
00:46:23.880 --> 00:46:25.039
It just took what they needed.

813
00:46:25.199 --> 00:46:28.800
Yeah, and that's why they got along with the Indians exactly.

814
00:46:29.440 --> 00:46:31.440
That's why I don't really feel threatened by it.

815
00:46:31.480 --> 00:46:34.519
And I never had traces part Indians.

816
00:46:34.679 --> 00:46:36.800
Oh okay, very cool, very cool.

817
00:46:38.440 --> 00:46:41.639
I've grown up out there too and had them like

818
00:46:42.119 --> 00:46:46.800
just feet away from me, like all the time. I'm friggid.

819
00:46:47.519 --> 00:46:49.760
Start giving them things and I don't really want to

820
00:46:49.920 --> 00:46:54.679
hand my house. Oh potatoes out for him or orange

821
00:46:54.760 --> 00:46:57.679
or something. But I've never had them actually raid my

822
00:46:57.760 --> 00:46:58.400
camp either.

823
00:46:58.679 --> 00:47:01.400
But it's like they know I'm sharing what I could.

824
00:47:01.239 --> 00:47:02.800
Share it if they get used to it and then

825
00:47:02.800 --> 00:47:05.119
you stop. They live there.

826
00:47:05.239 --> 00:47:09.920
I'm the ones lisn't then they think, oh, we've got

827
00:47:09.920 --> 00:47:11.119
ten of them, I want five.

828
00:47:12.480 --> 00:47:13.079
That's funny.

829
00:47:13.159 --> 00:47:19.760
That's funny, mixed fortune kind of. It's just there's a

830
00:47:19.760 --> 00:47:21.239
lot of stuff that happens.

831
00:47:21.480 --> 00:47:23.280
Rocks down that hill. My son and I that.

832
00:47:23.360 --> 00:47:26.440
Time was the worst encounter and it was short lived,

833
00:47:26.599 --> 00:47:28.599
and we gave them their space.

834
00:47:28.679 --> 00:47:32.199
And right they're telling you easily with little rocks and

835
00:47:32.920 --> 00:47:35.920
bigger you want to be. I live in little rocks.

836
00:47:37.320 --> 00:47:39.679
Did that happen in Gilcrest?

837
00:47:42.000 --> 00:47:44.679
No, that's over up out of Mapleton, up.

838
00:47:44.559 --> 00:47:46.320
In the mountains.

839
00:47:48.280 --> 00:47:55.400
Wow, that's coach. Got yeah, Florence and then picked up

840
00:47:55.519 --> 00:48:03.320
river from Florence. Got so you're well or Ohio? Yeah?

841
00:48:03.360 --> 00:48:07.079
I well, I'm Central Iowa, but I I I'm going

842
00:48:07.119 --> 00:48:10.519
out to uh Oregon again this year. I like going

843
00:48:10.559 --> 00:48:11.960
out there. It's fun, so.

844
00:48:12.400 --> 00:48:15.719
Right, but yes, I'm here. They have that festival and.

845
00:48:17.440 --> 00:48:18.519
It's a good time. Yeah.

846
00:48:18.880 --> 00:48:20.039
When does that take place?

847
00:48:20.760 --> 00:48:25.039
I believe this year it is July eleventh and twelfth.

848
00:48:28.559 --> 00:48:31.559
Maybe me and Tracy can head that way, that would

849
00:48:31.599 --> 00:48:32.400
be cool.

850
00:48:33.280 --> 00:48:36.000
Yeah, it's uh, it's a great time. There's a lot

851
00:48:36.000 --> 00:48:39.599
of cool people there, and I mean everyone's into Bigfoot

852
00:48:39.599 --> 00:48:41.800
and the weird stuff, so a lot of crazy stuff

853
00:48:41.840 --> 00:48:45.239
happens and it's a good time. So yeah, it's definitely.

854
00:48:45.440 --> 00:48:45.719
I have.

855
00:48:48.199 --> 00:48:51.559
Yeah, I have some friends who lived in Dexter. Oh,

856
00:48:51.800 --> 00:48:56.320
he's not too far from Oakwidge. They had encounters there.

857
00:48:57.119 --> 00:49:01.559
Oh, I don't believe. I would totally believe them, because

858
00:49:01.679 --> 00:49:04.320
I've heard a few things from the Dexter area in

859
00:49:04.360 --> 00:49:08.719
the Fall Creek area, which is right over there. But yeah,

860
00:49:08.760 --> 00:49:10.719
that's a wild area as well.

861
00:49:10.960 --> 00:49:12.800
Lived in Loraine.

862
00:49:14.000 --> 00:49:16.639
Oh did anything? Did anything happen in Lorraine when you

863
00:49:16.679 --> 00:49:18.519
were there?

864
00:49:20.400 --> 00:49:24.840
Actually, this one night I was well, my trailer, one

865
00:49:24.920 --> 00:49:27.719
side of it was probably like one story off of

866
00:49:27.760 --> 00:49:30.719
the ground because it was on a hill, and so

867
00:49:30.960 --> 00:49:35.039
my living room window was probably like seventy eight feet

868
00:49:35.079 --> 00:49:38.719
off of the ground. And I was reading books to

869
00:49:38.760 --> 00:49:40.360
my kids in the living room.

870
00:49:40.239 --> 00:49:43.639
Floor one night, and I had my window open, and.

871
00:49:43.599 --> 00:49:46.559
I looked over and there was a hand and a

872
00:49:46.679 --> 00:49:47.880
face in my window.

873
00:49:50.440 --> 00:49:51.559
Did you shotgun?

874
00:49:53.880 --> 00:49:56.800
I jumped up and got my kids back and went

875
00:49:56.840 --> 00:50:00.280
and closed the window. But yeah, I mean it had

876
00:50:00.440 --> 00:50:05.079
been pretty tall to be looking in my window like that,

877
00:50:05.440 --> 00:50:07.440
just had his hand like rested on the edge of

878
00:50:07.440 --> 00:50:11.400
the window and looking in. But yeah, my kids and

879
00:50:11.440 --> 00:50:14.280
I like across the living room, we were only probably

880
00:50:14.280 --> 00:50:15.320
like fancy away at.

881
00:50:15.199 --> 00:50:20.559
Meeting, you know. It was speaky. Yeah. And then Goutyville Road.

882
00:50:20.880 --> 00:50:23.039
I lived on the Lorraine.

883
00:50:22.719 --> 00:50:26.119
Side, and like two or three driveways up from the

884
00:50:26.199 --> 00:50:29.159
end of Goutyville and there was there's quite a few

885
00:50:29.239 --> 00:50:34.800
encounters that happened up on Goutyville Road, and I'm pretty

886
00:50:34.840 --> 00:50:38.960
sure I encountered one. It was late though it was dark,

887
00:50:39.440 --> 00:50:41.679
but I could hear something moving over in the brush,

888
00:50:41.719 --> 00:50:44.440
and my dog wouldn't get out of the car. And

889
00:50:44.559 --> 00:50:47.159
that was his peace spot on the way home from town.

890
00:50:47.119 --> 00:50:50.840
So he always got out there, but he was trembling

891
00:50:50.880 --> 00:50:53.920
and he wouldn't get out. So I'm pretty sure that

892
00:50:54.039 --> 00:50:55.199
was probably what that was.

893
00:50:55.920 --> 00:50:59.079
Yeah, once you've seeing these things, you know they're there. Well,

894
00:50:59.239 --> 00:51:02.400
that's not far are from Cottage Grove Lake either right

895
00:51:02.440 --> 00:51:04.639
over from from Cottage.

896
00:51:04.239 --> 00:51:06.639
Grove is Lorraine, right over the mountain.

897
00:51:07.039 --> 00:51:11.800
Golladyville Road takes you over that mountain and yeah six stuff.

898
00:51:12.039 --> 00:51:16.000
Yeah, and yeah, that's where I lived for a while.

899
00:51:16.599 --> 00:51:19.119
But that's where I had the like they were.

900
00:51:19.119 --> 00:51:22.519
It was looking in my window. It freaks me out

901
00:51:22.719 --> 00:51:25.000
because it had to be really tall. He's just like

902
00:51:25.800 --> 00:51:28.440
so nonchalent when you like to hand up on the

903
00:51:28.559 --> 00:51:31.360
edge of the window just looking in. Had to be

904
00:51:31.440 --> 00:51:33.559
pretty like eight nine feet tall at least.

905
00:51:34.480 --> 00:51:35.840
That's freaky.

906
00:51:35.960 --> 00:51:36.159
You know.

907
00:51:36.360 --> 00:51:41.079
We had talked about Yeah, absolutely, we had never talked

908
00:51:41.199 --> 00:51:44.000
We talked about Cottage Grove a little bit earlier, and

909
00:51:44.800 --> 00:51:47.079
you know, I've been hearing a lot of weird stuff

910
00:51:47.079 --> 00:51:50.599
from that area also Durina Lake and Sharp's Creek. Have

911
00:51:50.800 --> 00:51:57.360
you experienced any weird stuff down in that area as well?

912
00:51:58.119 --> 00:52:01.960
No, but I all of my family lives in that area.

913
00:52:02.239 --> 00:52:06.519
So I have had two uncles that were actually riding

914
00:52:06.519 --> 00:52:11.880
together that it was a colp Creek over at Cottage Grove.

915
00:52:12.920 --> 00:52:15.000
My aunt lived up there and they were going to

916
00:52:15.079 --> 00:52:19.360
my aunt's house and it was probably I don't know,

917
00:52:19.599 --> 00:52:23.159
it's seven, eight o'clock at night. They said it was dark,

918
00:52:23.920 --> 00:52:26.840
but it ran across the road in front of the

919
00:52:26.960 --> 00:52:29.480
truck as they were going to my aunt. That was

920
00:52:29.519 --> 00:52:32.440
on Colp Creek, my aunt and her husband. I'm not

921
00:52:32.599 --> 00:52:36.559
positive exactly where it was because one of my uncles

922
00:52:36.559 --> 00:52:39.280
at the time lived in Lorraine and they were on

923
00:52:39.320 --> 00:52:43.280
their way either two or from Cottage Grove from my

924
00:52:43.400 --> 00:52:48.000
uncle's place, and they had one on Cottage Grove Highway.

925
00:52:50.599 --> 00:52:52.880
They had to stop because it was crossing the road

926
00:52:53.079 --> 00:52:55.679
up like at the top of it in the corners.

927
00:52:56.880 --> 00:52:59.440
They had to stop and it went across the road right.

928
00:52:59.400 --> 00:53:02.719
In front of those guys. It has been a fun

929
00:53:02.760 --> 00:53:07.039
time chatting with you tonight, as Steve Sumter and Tracy

930
00:53:07.079 --> 00:53:09.880
Brooks thank you both for coming on the podcast. Is

931
00:53:10.199 --> 00:53:13.559
there anything else you would want to make sure you

932
00:53:13.679 --> 00:53:19.840
share before we have the end of our conversation today.

933
00:53:20.000 --> 00:53:25.519
Well, I have a question for you. Oh sure, have

934
00:53:25.639 --> 00:53:28.039
you ever seen one or had any encounters?

935
00:53:28.239 --> 00:53:33.079
So that's a really good question. I had some weird

936
00:53:33.119 --> 00:53:37.239
stuff happened out in Oakridge last July. I did not

937
00:53:37.559 --> 00:53:44.760
have an actual sighting. I heard something. I knew they

938
00:53:44.800 --> 00:53:47.880
were there. We got screamed and roared at by something

939
00:53:47.920 --> 00:53:52.559
out in the woods. I mean, that was crazy. But

940
00:53:52.920 --> 00:53:56.119
I have not had an actual, like face to face

941
00:53:56.559 --> 00:53:59.039
see something. I mean I missed having it by about

942
00:53:59.079 --> 00:54:03.519
five hours because of when I came in through the airport.

943
00:54:03.840 --> 00:54:06.000
There was another group up there and they saw one

944
00:54:06.079 --> 00:54:10.440
jump out of a tree. It was crazy. So well, I.

945
00:54:10.440 --> 00:54:13.199
Will send the pictures to you. I'll send them directly

946
00:54:13.239 --> 00:54:13.800
to your phone.

947
00:54:13.880 --> 00:54:14.480
Is that okay?

Oh yeah, you can do that or my email, whatever

949
00:54:17.480 --> 00:54:20.199
is easiest for you. Man, So yeah, definitely.
