going to give it right over to you
18
00:01:07.879 --> 00:01:11.359
and we'll get right into it tonight. All right, thank you very much,
19
00:01:11.439 --> 00:01:15.920
Jeremiah. I grew up in Eugene, Oregon, and I was an
20
00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:22.719
outdoorsy kind of kid. My grandparents
lived on the Mackenzie River up near the
21
00:01:22.760 --> 00:01:26.000
town of Vida, and I spent
all my childhood free time up there roaming
22
00:01:26.040 --> 00:01:33.640
the woods and the creeks in the
hillsides. And grandparents are a little looser
23
00:01:33.760 --> 00:01:38.079
than the parents are about where the
kid is, so I was I'd had
24
00:01:38.120 --> 00:01:44.480
free range to in the mountains.
I never really thought about sasquatch or bigfoot
25
00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:48.920
at all growing up, and never
really had anything happened to me that would
26
00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:53.480
make me think that there were any
bigfoot around. But until I was about,
27
00:01:55.159 --> 00:01:59.400
let's see how old one, I
was probably around fourteen years old,
28
00:01:59.480 --> 00:02:01.840
fifteen years years old. My grandma
would drive me up these old logging roads
29
00:02:02.719 --> 00:02:07.799
with my bow, and I would
hunt these logging roads on my way and
30
00:02:07.920 --> 00:02:12.520
just wander my way back to her
house down these logging roads. And there
31
00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:15.560
was a time she dropped me off
and there about it's about a three or
32
00:02:15.599 --> 00:02:21.120
four mile walk back down to her
house. And I was let out of
33
00:02:21.120 --> 00:02:24.479
the car, and the birds were
chirping and the squirrels were chattering at me,
34
00:02:25.479 --> 00:02:29.159
and I would usually sit and wait, sit in a little burrow ditch
35
00:02:29.199 --> 00:02:31.800
and wait for her car, so
I couldn't hear a car anymore. And
36
00:02:31.840 --> 00:02:37.879
then I start walking down the logging
road. And never really planned on shooting
37
00:02:37.879 --> 00:02:40.039
a deer with a bow. It
was more of just me being out in
38
00:02:40.039 --> 00:02:46.759
the woods. But anyway, I
heard her car disappear out of range,
39
00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:50.319
out of my hearing, and all
of a sudden, I just had this
40
00:02:50.919 --> 00:02:59.120
very strange sensation of being It's like
the forest just went silent, and I
41
00:02:59.199 --> 00:03:02.919
just got a really weird feeling.
So I'm standing on the logging road looking
42
00:03:02.960 --> 00:03:08.240
down into the ravine below me,
and these three deer come creeping up out
43
00:03:08.240 --> 00:03:14.960
of the ravine, really low,
really a strange movement, hunkered down and
44
00:03:15.639 --> 00:03:20.080
almost trying to crawl, and they
were covered in sweat, totally ladded over,
45
00:03:20.800 --> 00:03:23.879
and their eyes were bulging out of
their heads and they walked within I
46
00:03:23.879 --> 00:03:27.960
could have reached out and hit one
with touching with my arrow. They were
47
00:03:27.960 --> 00:03:30.879
so close and they could have cared
less that I was there. I thought
48
00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:34.120
that was really weird. And so
I'm looking down into the ravine where they
49
00:03:34.159 --> 00:03:39.800
came from, and a tree like
it's just got cracked in half and was
50
00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:45.719
pushed over, and there was no
wind, there was no reason for it
51
00:03:45.759 --> 00:03:50.479
to happen. It sounded like a
healthy, live green fir tree just snapped
52
00:03:50.520 --> 00:03:54.639
in half. And that was the
first encounter. But again in the eighties,
53
00:03:54.680 --> 00:03:57.919
I wasn't a figure. It was
definitely not on my mind. I
54
00:03:58.000 --> 00:04:02.479
just thought it was strange and wandered
on back to my grandma's house. And
55
00:04:02.479 --> 00:04:06.400
then, let's see, there was
another time. I'm going to back up
56
00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:11.199
to when I was a little younger
before you do that. So I just
57
00:04:11.240 --> 00:04:15.400
want to clarify something. So you
when you were looking down the ravine youse,
58
00:04:15.360 --> 00:04:20.199
like you heard that tree get cracked
in half and pushed over. Yeah,
59
00:04:20.319 --> 00:04:25.480
I was dere walked by me.
I couldn't figure out why they were.
60
00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:29.399
I've never seen deer behave like that. They were just it was almost
61
00:04:29.439 --> 00:04:32.600
like they're creeping past me with her
and their eyes were bulghout and they looked
62
00:04:32.959 --> 00:04:35.279
if you see a horse, that's
all that's been run too hard. They
63
00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:40.759
just had this sheen of They looked
terrified. And then this tree just goes
64
00:04:40.959 --> 00:04:45.480
crack and goes crashing down to the
ground. Green, not punky, just
65
00:04:45.519 --> 00:04:48.920
a green, big fir tree.
It sounded like a mature tree, and
66
00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:54.399
it didn't freak me out, but
I just was odd and so I high
67
00:04:54.439 --> 00:04:58.319
tailed. I just losed that to
my grandma's house. When you were out
68
00:04:58.319 --> 00:05:01.639
in the woods with your bow,
did you ever hear any sounds out there
69
00:05:01.720 --> 00:05:08.000
that didn't fit with what should be
out in the wood. The only times
70
00:05:08.040 --> 00:05:11.040
I ever did are there are those
stories I'm going to tell you Other than
71
00:05:11.079 --> 00:05:15.480
that, never, which is it's
strange. I'd never it never crossed my
72
00:05:15.519 --> 00:05:18.959
mind. I was never no no
signs, or never even crossed my mind.
73
00:05:19.519 --> 00:05:23.600
I'll back up a little bit.
I skipped this one. This has
74
00:05:23.639 --> 00:05:28.920
happened when I was ten years old
on Lost Creek, at Lost Creek Campground.
75
00:05:29.319 --> 00:05:31.199
It's on the west side of Mount
Hood in nineteen eighty. And I
76
00:05:31.240 --> 00:05:35.279
know the date exactly because the day
after this event happened, Mount Saint Helens
77
00:05:35.399 --> 00:05:41.720
erupted, So maybe nineteen eighty it
was when this happened, and I was
78
00:05:41.800 --> 00:05:49.000
camping with a family friend for the
weekend, and again this I completely forgot
79
00:05:49.040 --> 00:05:55.639
about this until I heard somebody tell
a similar story. And it's funny how
80
00:05:55.839 --> 00:06:00.399
these things come back to you.
When you hear something it is sparked this
81
00:06:00.519 --> 00:06:04.000
memory. And I was we were
camping at this campground and it was a
82
00:06:04.199 --> 00:06:09.279
you pull your trailer in, and
it was a pretty crowded campground, and
83
00:06:10.040 --> 00:06:13.639
there we had a camper, there's
a tent, there's a cable set up,
84
00:06:14.360 --> 00:06:17.560
there was a fire pit, so
it was a cramped little space and
85
00:06:17.720 --> 00:06:21.120
I'm it's night and my friend and
I are sleeping in the tent and his
86
00:06:21.240 --> 00:06:27.079
parents are sleeping in the camper,
and I'm laying there in bed. I
87
00:06:27.079 --> 00:06:30.360
don't know what time it was,
ken between ten and midnight, probably because
88
00:06:30.360 --> 00:06:35.040
I wasn't asleep yet, when I
heard what sounded like a deer bounding through
89
00:06:35.199 --> 00:06:40.480
the camp bump bounding, and then
it stopped right outside our tent. And
90
00:06:40.600 --> 00:06:45.519
we had a little cord that was
a cold in the vestibule. We had
91
00:06:45.519 --> 00:06:47.800
it tied around a tree, and
we just I kept hearing this dump.
92
00:06:48.040 --> 00:06:51.759
It was twang in the cord and
I thought, oh, a deer must
93
00:06:51.759 --> 00:06:56.800
have jumped jumped the cord or tripped
into the cord or something, and then
94
00:06:56.839 --> 00:07:00.160
it thumped away. But what was
weird is a few minutes later I could
95
00:07:00.680 --> 00:07:05.279
thump came back and it did the
same thing. It was twaying the little
96
00:07:05.319 --> 00:07:10.360
cord that was holding the vestibule of
the camp cup, probably two or three
97
00:07:10.560 --> 00:07:15.759
twangs like a guitar string, and
then it stumped, dump dumped the way
98
00:07:15.800 --> 00:07:18.240
through camp. That was it.
So I wake up in the morning.
99
00:07:18.279 --> 00:07:21.160
I was like, gosh, did
you guys hear that deer in camp last
100
00:07:21.240 --> 00:07:26.720
night? And no one they didn't
hear anything. But then I started thinking
101
00:07:26.720 --> 00:07:30.959
this, there's no way a deer
could have run through the camp because it's
102
00:07:30.959 --> 00:07:34.600
so there's coolers and there's stuff everywhere. Besides, it was pointing. It
103
00:07:34.639 --> 00:07:41.639
was it would stomp stump up to
the camp stop and then the little cord
104
00:07:41.639 --> 00:07:45.439
would go blinging, buoying and librate
the camp. So that happened. It
105
00:07:45.519 --> 00:07:48.639
did that two times, and that
was and then the next morning. That
106
00:07:48.720 --> 00:07:55.319
morning we forgot all about it because
Mount Saint Helens had erupted while we were
107
00:07:55.319 --> 00:08:00.079
having breakfast and we could hear the
sonic boom and the ground shook and we
108
00:08:00.079 --> 00:08:03.600
all knew what it was. You
know, everyone in the Northwest was waiting
109
00:08:03.600 --> 00:08:09.920
for it to happen, So that
sort of trumped whatever happened to me that
110
00:08:09.040 --> 00:08:13.759
night, which I was pretty cool, And then there was ash all over
111
00:08:13.800 --> 00:08:16.319
our cars. The next day,
it was cool. Let's see, I've
112
00:08:16.360 --> 00:08:22.319
got another I'll talk a little bit
more about what happened upon the McKinsey River
113
00:08:22.399 --> 00:08:28.279
where I grew up. So let's
see, this is a weird one.
114
00:08:28.360 --> 00:08:31.000
So the year was let's see,
I wrote all this stuff, you know,
115
00:08:31.120 --> 00:08:37.799
nineteen. I was a junior in
high school and my grandma was a
116
00:08:37.799 --> 00:08:39.679
really cool old lady, and all
my high school friends would come up there
117
00:08:39.720 --> 00:08:46.000
and spend the night. She'd cooked
for us and we'd fish and run around
118
00:08:46.080 --> 00:08:48.799
the forest and play in the yard. And she had about thirteen acres.
119
00:08:50.399 --> 00:08:54.080
And one night we were out playing
a game called kick the Can, which
120
00:08:54.120 --> 00:08:56.679
is like a hide and seek game
where you put a can in the middle
121
00:08:56.759 --> 00:09:03.399
shield and one person guards it.
If someone gets tagged and you kick the
122
00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:05.879
can, the person who you tagged
goes free. So we're all out.
123
00:09:05.879 --> 00:09:11.919
They're probably eight of us playing this
game, and I'm hiding in some ferns
124
00:09:11.759 --> 00:09:15.639
and all of a sudden, a
couple of the people who are in that
125
00:09:15.679 --> 00:09:18.200
there's two people who are it.
They're out in the field going to stop
126
00:09:20.039 --> 00:09:26.720
and they are staring up at the
mountain side that's next to the property.
127
00:09:26.320 --> 00:09:30.519
And pretty soon all the rest of
the kids come out and they're all looking
128
00:09:30.600 --> 00:09:33.759
up in the sky and what the
heck's going on? So I get out
129
00:09:33.759 --> 00:09:39.720
of my hiding spot and I joined
them in the field and I look up
130
00:09:39.120 --> 00:09:43.879
and there are three green, bluish
green I think there were bluish green balls
131
00:09:43.919 --> 00:09:50.519
of light about the size of beach
balls, big kind of rubber beach balls
132
00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:54.559
you would see at like a music
festival or something. And there was So
133
00:09:54.600 --> 00:10:00.960
if I'm looking straight across the property
to the hillside is twelve o'clock. There
134
00:10:01.039 --> 00:10:07.080
was one at about nine o'clock that
was maybe three or four hundred yards away,
135
00:10:07.200 --> 00:10:11.879
not on our property, but the
next piece of property in the above
136
00:10:11.919 --> 00:10:18.000
the forest. There there was one
probably ten o'clock that was right above with
137
00:10:18.159 --> 00:10:22.759
this creek runs down into our property. And then there was one at about
138
00:10:22.039 --> 00:10:28.320
one o'clock, and they were just
green or beach balls, just hovering in
139
00:10:28.360 --> 00:10:33.080
the sky, and we're all like, WHOA, what's going on, what's
140
00:10:33.120 --> 00:10:37.120
that. We didn't know what they
were, and the rolodecks starts going over
141
00:10:37.159 --> 00:10:39.279
in your mind, is it a
weather, believing it? What is it?
142
00:10:39.399 --> 00:10:43.000
And then it was none of that. It was just these balls of
143
00:10:43.080 --> 00:10:46.440
light and at the same time,
so they were just stationary in the sky
144
00:10:48.399 --> 00:10:52.200
above the fir trees, and there
were different elevations, so one was down
145
00:10:52.240 --> 00:10:58.000
on our across from us flat,
probably twenty feet above the fur trees there,
146
00:10:58.679 --> 00:11:01.600
and the other one was another up
the hillside. They were all the
147
00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:05.120
same distance of the fir trees,
if that makes sense, And all of
148
00:11:05.159 --> 00:11:11.960
a sudden, at the very same
time, they started descending into the trees,
149
00:11:11.000 --> 00:11:15.519
into the fir trees, and you
could see all the boughs of the
150
00:11:15.559 --> 00:11:22.960
fir trees lighting up around them,
and they just slowly went into the forest
151
00:11:22.159 --> 00:11:26.279
at the same time. It was
really weird, and we freaked out and
152
00:11:26.440 --> 00:11:30.559
all went back inside and called it
at night. So that was strange.
153
00:11:30.679 --> 00:11:33.360
So the next day, so if
this is at the end of September,
154
00:11:33.480 --> 00:11:37.000
most of the kids left that next
day and my buddy and I were going
155
00:11:37.080 --> 00:11:39.320
to go grouse something. We stayed, so we're like, let's go grouse
156
00:11:39.320 --> 00:11:46.440
something. And so there's an old
logging road straight across from my grandma's place,
157
00:11:46.480 --> 00:11:50.879
and so we always hunt this logging
road and we'd hike a couple of
158
00:11:50.919 --> 00:11:56.480
miles up and there was this really
neat kind of we're hunting in. I'd
159
00:11:56.480 --> 00:11:58.960
say it's second growth. So the
trees were probably sixty or seventy years old
160
00:12:00.039 --> 00:12:05.000
old and pretty mature forest. But
there was a really cool spot that the
161
00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:09.360
loggers had left. They didn't cut, maybe eight or nine acres with really
162
00:12:09.360 --> 00:12:15.200
beautiful old growth. And so we'd
go hike to that spot, go leave
163
00:12:15.200 --> 00:12:18.639
our we'd always leave our guns outside
that we never took anything in there,
164
00:12:18.080 --> 00:12:22.200
any guns or weapons, just because
it was such as like a sort of
165
00:12:22.200 --> 00:12:26.639
a sacred place. It was really
amazing. So we'd go and sit and
166
00:12:26.759 --> 00:12:30.559
does it, and then we'd hunt
back down the road in my grandma's house.
167
00:12:31.120 --> 00:12:35.360
And there was a so between this
neat, little old growth section and
168
00:12:35.840 --> 00:12:43.159
her house was a giant one of
those big giant power lines that go across
169
00:12:43.159 --> 00:12:48.519
the state, those giant high tension
power lines, and a little service road
170
00:12:48.600 --> 00:12:54.000
ran under it. And we'd always
we'd go to the little old growth spot,
171
00:12:54.559 --> 00:13:00.399
come down and then turn down the
little service road underneath the hike tension
172
00:13:00.399 --> 00:13:03.879
power lines and eat a sandwich and
drink something because it was in the sun.
173
00:13:03.960 --> 00:13:07.200
Because when you're in the on these
logging roads and these big trees,
174
00:13:07.240 --> 00:13:11.639
it's like a tunnel and there's no
direct sunlight. So we'd always go and
175
00:13:11.639 --> 00:13:15.679
get a little sunshine on our faces
and have a sandwich and just sit and
176
00:13:15.720 --> 00:13:18.440
look out across the mountains. So
we've done that, we're on our way
177
00:13:18.440 --> 00:13:24.399
back down and we're it gets this
is where it gets pretty weird. And
178
00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:28.480
so let me see. So I'm
walking, we're walking down the road,
179
00:13:28.559 --> 00:13:33.840
and we're about to turn turn right
to go down this little service road,
180
00:13:33.440 --> 00:13:39.159
logging road to eat our sandwiches.
And from the from our right side,
181
00:13:39.360 --> 00:13:43.879
probably twenty yards in the just off
the edge of the logging road in the
182
00:13:43.919 --> 00:13:54.919
forest, we hear two whoops,
you know, really loud, and before
183
00:13:54.960 --> 00:14:03.720
we can really acknowledge what we just
heard, we both just stopped in freeze,
184
00:14:03.759 --> 00:14:09.600
and this way of unbelievable fear that
I can't really describe came over us.
185
00:14:09.240 --> 00:14:13.000
It was like we walked into an
invisible sort of bull of jelly.
186
00:14:13.159 --> 00:14:18.919
I couldn't move either, and my
friend and this fear was I can't describe
187
00:14:20.000 --> 00:14:22.639
fear. It's just unless it's happened
to you. I think it's hard to
188
00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:30.720
explain. So the hoops happen,
and then across the little service road there's
189
00:14:30.759 --> 00:14:35.440
another The forest continues, but it's
the face of this forest is it gets
190
00:14:35.480 --> 00:14:41.320
a lot of sunlight, so there
was scotch broom blackberries, so you couldn't
191
00:14:41.320 --> 00:14:45.000
really see into the little thicket of
trees that was on the other side,
192
00:14:45.519 --> 00:14:50.000
and from that side, all of
a sudden, and we're frozen and we
193
00:14:50.039 --> 00:14:54.919
can't move, and all of a
sudden, I hear the sound. And
194
00:14:54.080 --> 00:15:00.720
I've gone online and listened to certain
animals as I've heard people's accounts, and
195
00:15:00.759 --> 00:15:05.159
it sounded exactly like if you listen
to what an alligator, a crocodile sounds
196
00:15:05.200 --> 00:15:09.120
like. They vibrate. I don't
think they have vocal chords, but they
197
00:15:09.120 --> 00:15:15.320
make this weird vibrating noise. It
sounded exactly like that at first, where
198
00:15:15.840 --> 00:15:20.480
just my eyes are bulging out of
my head and the noise is just it's
199
00:15:20.600 --> 00:15:26.039
reverberating through this whole little landing that
we're standing in. We can kind of
200
00:15:26.240 --> 00:15:28.039
at this point, I'm sort of
like, oh, God, I'm starting
201
00:15:28.080 --> 00:15:33.799
to maybe pivot around a little bit. I can my senses are coming back,
202
00:15:33.840 --> 00:15:35.399
and we're talking back and forth,
like what the heck's going on?
203
00:15:35.960 --> 00:15:41.440
And as we start to talk,
that sound and it's inhaling and it's gets
204
00:15:41.559 --> 00:15:48.039
rasty inhale and just vibrating out this
noise. It sounds like an alligator.
205
00:15:48.600 --> 00:15:54.200
And then it goes from that sound
to and again I've listened. I've found
206
00:15:54.279 --> 00:15:58.759
these sounds online. It sounded like
a if you ever heard it, listen
207
00:15:58.799 --> 00:16:02.799
to a lion while I eat,
like a big male lion eating kind of
208
00:16:02.840 --> 00:16:06.399
purrs and growled at the same time, so it would inhale. You could
209
00:16:06.399 --> 00:16:11.799
hear it inhaling this really raspy noise, and then when it would exhale,
210
00:16:11.799 --> 00:16:15.200
it would make this sort of purring
growl like a lion. But it was
211
00:16:15.279 --> 00:16:18.879
really loud. And all I could
think of was, thing's got to be
212
00:16:18.879 --> 00:16:22.240
the size of a rhinoceros, whatever's
in there, And it was doing that.
213
00:16:22.480 --> 00:16:27.840
It would inhale and then exhale this
purring, strange growl, and we're
214
00:16:29.519 --> 00:16:34.039
starting to freak out a little bit, obviously, and we're thinking to ourselves,
215
00:16:34.120 --> 00:16:37.159
right in the heck, we're going
not a deer, not an elk,
216
00:16:37.799 --> 00:16:42.480
not a coolar, not a bear, and not a person in there
217
00:16:42.759 --> 00:16:47.399
trying to mess with us. But
again I'm not thinking Bigfoot at all,
218
00:16:47.480 --> 00:16:52.039
and which is weird because going up
an Oregon you hear about bigfoot, but
219
00:16:52.159 --> 00:16:56.440
it just wasn't entering my mind.
So we're standing there and I'd forgotten we
220
00:16:56.480 --> 00:17:00.480
even have guns because we're just so
scared. We start to shift our bodies.
221
00:17:02.240 --> 00:17:04.480
This is maybe a minute or two
has gone by since we heard those
222
00:17:04.480 --> 00:17:08.480
initial whoops, so it's going by
pretty quick, and the mines. My
223
00:17:08.480 --> 00:17:12.960
mind's just racing, racing, trying
to figure out what's happening. If we
224
00:17:14.000 --> 00:17:15.720
start to talk, what are we
going to do? How are we going
225
00:17:15.799 --> 00:17:18.480
to get because we have to walk
underneath there because the road cuts down below
226
00:17:18.519 --> 00:17:23.839
where this is happening in this little
thicket of trees, and the trees are
227
00:17:23.880 --> 00:17:29.559
probably there. It's a newer grove
of fir trees, and the trees were
228
00:17:29.599 --> 00:17:33.200
probably thirty forty feet tall, but
you couldn't see, Like I said,
229
00:17:33.200 --> 00:17:36.359
you couldn't really see in So we're
like, oh, shoot, how are
230
00:17:36.400 --> 00:17:40.000
we going to get get out of
here? Because that thing is whatever that
231
00:17:40.000 --> 00:17:45.119
thing is. It's mad. So
as as we're shifting and we're starting to
232
00:17:45.119 --> 00:17:48.519
talk about what we're going to do, I'm like, we got we each
233
00:17:48.559 --> 00:17:52.079
have a twelve eight shotgun. We
could fire over the trees, wait for
234
00:17:52.119 --> 00:17:56.480
it to run off, and then
booky out of there. And the minute
235
00:17:56.920 --> 00:18:02.440
I started to put my gun to
to consider lifting it up and firing it,
236
00:18:03.119 --> 00:18:07.799
the place erupted. It went from
this weird, purring growl to just
237
00:18:07.880 --> 00:18:15.000
this screaming roar of I can't again, I can't describe it. It was
238
00:18:15.079 --> 00:18:21.200
just blowing through our body, like
blowing through our bodies, and the trees
239
00:18:21.240 --> 00:18:26.079
started to shake, and there was
branches starting to snap, and I remember
240
00:18:26.440 --> 00:18:30.480
seeing two trees that were probably thirty
five or forty feet tall next to each
241
00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:33.920
other, just shaken violently back and
forth. I'm like, gosh, what
242
00:18:34.079 --> 00:18:37.000
the heck can be doing that?
And then they went from back and forth
243
00:18:37.039 --> 00:18:41.680
to front back, completely different directions
at the same time, like something was
244
00:18:41.160 --> 00:18:45.519
grabbing them with their hands and just
shaking them back and forth. So we're
245
00:18:45.599 --> 00:18:48.720
terrified and we don't know what to
do. I think I'm crying at this
246
00:18:48.799 --> 00:18:53.960
point, and just the cheer just
poof overwhelmed, so screw it. We
247
00:18:55.039 --> 00:18:59.559
got to get out of here.
So we both agree we're going to shoot
248
00:18:59.559 --> 00:19:03.359
over this, over the trees and
then bolt underneath it. Hopefully it is
249
00:19:03.799 --> 00:19:07.799
the sound of our guns will scare
it off. So yeah, we fire
250
00:19:07.920 --> 00:19:11.680
over the tree tops and we wait
a second to see if you can hear
251
00:19:11.720 --> 00:19:15.279
whatever's in there take off. It
didn't. It's just what we thought was
252
00:19:15.559 --> 00:19:21.319
pretty much max. It just elevated
even worse, and it was screaming and
253
00:19:21.839 --> 00:19:26.319
making those crazy slums, and so
we heck with it. We got to
254
00:19:26.359 --> 00:19:30.400
go. So we bolted and a
few hiked on logging roads. You know
255
00:19:30.440 --> 00:19:36.519
that the rocks, it's not small
little gravel, their big rocks, and
256
00:19:36.559 --> 00:19:38.720
it's hard to keep their balance.
And so I'm thinking the whole time is
257
00:19:38.759 --> 00:19:41.440
I'm going to wipe out and this
thing's going to jump down and grab me
258
00:19:41.880 --> 00:19:47.680
because we're I'm running as fast as
I've ever had before. My heels were
259
00:19:47.720 --> 00:19:49.880
hit, my butt and I got
a shotgun and hiking boots on, and
260
00:19:51.000 --> 00:19:56.039
I'm we're hauling down this road and
as I'm running underneath, as we are,
261
00:19:56.079 --> 00:19:59.799
as we're running underneath where this thing
is, I'm just thinking this thing
262
00:20:00.160 --> 00:20:03.359
grab me. I'm dead, We're
going to die. But for some reason,
263
00:20:03.519 --> 00:20:07.279
it never did. But the hair
on my neck, I could just
264
00:20:07.400 --> 00:20:11.519
feel it above me. I never
saw it, but I could just tell
265
00:20:11.559 --> 00:20:15.000
that there was and it was huffing
and at disappointed had stopped for all the
266
00:20:15.079 --> 00:20:19.720
ruckets and was just up there huffing
and breathing really loudly. And I could
267
00:20:19.759 --> 00:20:26.799
just feel because I ran pass ran
underneath to sing steel it above me,
268
00:20:26.960 --> 00:20:29.119
and I just thought I was going
to reach down and grab me, but
269
00:20:29.240 --> 00:20:33.359
it never did. And so I
booked it to my grandma's house, which
270
00:20:33.160 --> 00:20:37.359
we had to cross the road and
down her driveway is probably one hundred yards
271
00:20:37.440 --> 00:20:41.240
long to who her house was,
And so we'd make it to the front
272
00:20:41.319 --> 00:20:45.640
yard and she's out in the yard. She must have heard the shots,
273
00:20:45.680 --> 00:20:48.880
and so she's out there, what's
wrong, what's going on? I heard
274
00:20:48.880 --> 00:20:53.839
shots. She's a tough old lady, and like we told her what happened,
275
00:20:53.880 --> 00:20:57.319
and we're crying and we're freaked out. And she looked at us and
276
00:20:57.319 --> 00:21:00.680
says, you ran into a big
foot. And we looked at each other
277
00:21:00.720 --> 00:21:03.200
and like, what, for some
reason, it's just still not sinking in.
278
00:21:03.240 --> 00:21:06.759
That's what it was, and we're
like, what do you mean we
279
00:21:06.839 --> 00:21:10.200
ran into a big foot? And
she says, well, there's a pizza
280
00:21:10.279 --> 00:21:15.000
joint that's down the road from on
the highway from her house that her and
281
00:21:15.039 --> 00:21:18.559
her friend would go to every Friday
night and have her glass of wine and
282
00:21:18.599 --> 00:21:22.920
eat pizza. And she was telling
me that they told us that when she
283
00:21:22.960 --> 00:21:26.720
would go, her and her friend
Ellen would go and have pizza and drink
284
00:21:26.759 --> 00:21:30.279
wine, the loggers would. It
was the loggers hang out back in the
285
00:21:30.319 --> 00:21:33.799
eighties. You know, the logging
industry was very different back then. There's
286
00:21:34.240 --> 00:21:38.799
smaller operations and families and things.
That was a lot different than it is
287
00:21:38.880 --> 00:21:42.799
now. But that's where all the
loggers would go and on Friday night hang
288
00:21:42.839 --> 00:21:48.559
out. She said that she'd overhear
the loggers talk about things like this happening
289
00:21:48.559 --> 00:21:52.880
to them in the forest. She
said, I would hear a story after
290
00:21:52.960 --> 00:21:56.880
story of these sort of things happening, and hear them from these loggers who
291
00:21:56.880 --> 00:22:03.160
are out there doing it logging and
in the forest every day. That's it,
292
00:22:03.279 --> 00:22:07.160
and I and so the next day. So it didn't really affect me
293
00:22:07.240 --> 00:22:11.279
the way I hear people talk about
getting terrified of going back in the woods.
294
00:22:11.559 --> 00:22:14.640
It was like it was erased from
my mind. So the next day
295
00:22:15.319 --> 00:22:18.839
I'm up there and my friend had
to leave, we had to go back
296
00:22:18.880 --> 00:22:22.359
to the Eugene, and so I
stayed and I said, Grandma, I'm
297
00:22:22.400 --> 00:22:26.559
going to go and back up to
where that happened and look around and see
298
00:22:26.559 --> 00:22:30.880
what I can see. Because I'm
still thinking. For whatever reason, I
299
00:22:30.920 --> 00:22:33.799
couldn't get it into my head that
it was a big fort or a sasquatch.
300
00:22:34.319 --> 00:22:37.680
I kept I'm going to go look
for hoofs tracks. So I'm going
301
00:22:37.720 --> 00:22:40.920
to go look for claw marks in
the tree because that's what I thought it
302
00:22:41.039 --> 00:22:44.119
was. For some reason, I
go up there. It's not very far
303
00:22:44.160 --> 00:22:48.000
away. It's probably less than a
quarter of a mile from her house up
304
00:22:48.039 --> 00:22:51.599
this road, the logging road.
So I go into this thicket where this
305
00:22:51.640 --> 00:22:57.960
had happened, and there's I'm I'm
not I knew nothing about bigfoot tracks or
306
00:22:57.960 --> 00:23:03.039
what to look for that regard.
I'm just looking for hoof prints. I'm
307
00:23:03.079 --> 00:23:06.680
looking for scrapes from antlers, and
I'm looking for claw marks, and there
308
00:23:06.720 --> 00:23:10.559
was none of that. But what
was weird is that when I got into
309
00:23:10.559 --> 00:23:14.599
the thicket, because it had snapped, a bunch of fur boughs, and
310
00:23:15.359 --> 00:23:18.359
there should have been broken boughs.
You could see where they'd been broken off
311
00:23:18.400 --> 00:23:22.319
the trees where they're thing it snapped
in fresh breaks, but there were zero.
312
00:23:22.359 --> 00:23:27.880
I couldn't find any fur boughs on
the ground. They were gone.
313
00:23:27.920 --> 00:23:32.519
Something picked them up and take them
away, And the ground was really beat
314
00:23:32.599 --> 00:23:36.720
down. It's a lot of fur
needles and things where I couldn't make out
315
00:23:36.720 --> 00:23:40.440
any tracks. I didn't see any
obviously cooked prints or claw marks in the
316
00:23:40.440 --> 00:23:45.599
tree. So that was it and
I just forgot about it after that.
317
00:23:45.599 --> 00:23:52.599
That is an incredible account, even
though there wasn't a visual. That is
318
00:23:52.640 --> 00:23:57.119
a wild encounter. Do you think
that pizza place is still there? I
319
00:23:57.160 --> 00:24:03.359
still go there. Yeah? Is
that is that Ike's pizza? It's Ikes
320
00:24:03.400 --> 00:24:04.559
pizza him? All right, we
can cut that out if you want.
321
00:24:06.200 --> 00:24:08.559
No, that's fine, Yeah,
Ike's Pizza for sure. Yeah, I
322
00:24:08.680 --> 00:24:12.640
just I have a Google Maps up. The interesting thing I noticed is while
323
00:24:12.640 --> 00:24:15.960
you were telling that story, you
were talking about how it was like alligators.
324
00:24:17.599 --> 00:24:18.960
How. Yeah. The weird thing
is that the thing you were,
325
00:24:19.400 --> 00:24:23.880
the thing you were describing, that's
actually an infrasound thing. Oh it is
326
00:24:23.960 --> 00:24:29.440
if you look it up. Like
when they used as bellows that's an infrasound.
327
00:24:30.599 --> 00:24:33.599
Oh, no, way crazy.
I didn't know. So you got
328
00:24:33.000 --> 00:24:38.640
that hit me? Yeah, yeah, that's weird because I've heard someone mention
329
00:24:38.720 --> 00:24:42.160
it on a that that's what it
sounded like to them, and I so
330
00:24:42.200 --> 00:24:48.440
I went and listened to it and
say, whoa, that's exactly what it
331
00:24:48.519 --> 00:24:52.440
sounded like. And it just I
don't know what in for sound does,
332
00:24:52.480 --> 00:24:55.880
but man, I was frozen.
We couldn't move. It was like I
333
00:24:55.920 --> 00:25:00.960
walk into the invisible force field exactly
and pray. It was so weird.
334
00:25:02.440 --> 00:25:04.799
I didn't feel sick, I never
gotten ophis or anything. I just couldn't
335
00:25:06.160 --> 00:25:08.799
move, and I was so scared
that I was crying, and for no
336
00:25:08.880 --> 00:25:15.079
reason, because I don't think.
I think that the wave when we froze
337
00:25:15.119 --> 00:25:18.599
halfened before I even heard anything.
I think I was frozen in place before
338
00:25:18.599 --> 00:25:25.279
I even started hearing that alligator type
sound. That's wild. That element is
339
00:25:25.440 --> 00:25:30.079
enough for me to hearing. That's
enough that you definitely experienced some crazy stuff
340
00:25:30.279 --> 00:25:34.279
in the woods that day. No
question, it was bizarre. Yeah,
341
00:25:34.319 --> 00:25:38.839
it was weird. So the end
of this part of the story, so
342
00:25:38.920 --> 00:25:44.359
I'd completely forgotten about this event I
was getting ready to graduate high school that
343
00:25:44.440 --> 00:25:48.160
next year, and I after I
graduated high school, I'd moved to Idaho
344
00:25:48.240 --> 00:25:52.319
and became a ski bum for about
a decade and spent all that time just
345
00:25:52.440 --> 00:25:57.880
in the mountain Idaho, exploring skiing, fishing, all types of all times
346
00:25:57.880 --> 00:26:03.559
of year, all seasons, and
never even thought about sasquatch or bigfoot getting
347
00:26:03.559 --> 00:26:10.599
crossed my mind and my ski bumb
career and the years about. It's about
348
00:26:10.680 --> 00:26:15.079
two thousand and two and I'm going
to school in Boise at Boise State University
349
00:26:15.200 --> 00:26:18.640
do get my teaching certificate. And
Boise is a really cool city. There's
350
00:26:18.799 --> 00:26:22.000
the river runs right through town,
and on the south side of the river
351
00:26:22.039 --> 00:26:26.119
there's the college, and on the
north side of the river there are all
352
00:26:26.160 --> 00:26:30.440
these really pretty parks and concert little
concert shells and things. And there's an
353
00:26:30.480 --> 00:26:34.960
old zoo, like an old one
of the old school, small town depressing
354
00:26:34.960 --> 00:26:40.279
looking zoos. And so I would
have to footbridge to get to the colleges
355
00:26:40.359 --> 00:26:44.119
right next to the zoo. So
i think I'm a junior or something at
356
00:26:44.119 --> 00:26:47.559
this point, and I'm cruising on
my bike and it's early in the morning,
357
00:26:48.240 --> 00:26:53.200
and I'm riding past the zoo and
I hear these wops coming from the
358
00:26:53.279 --> 00:26:57.359
zoo. I'm thirty one years old
and this happened. This event happened to
359
00:26:57.400 --> 00:27:02.559
me back when I was seventeen years
old, and I just instantly froze on
360
00:27:02.640 --> 00:27:08.599
my bike and stopped and was just
catapulted back to that discipline that I just
361
00:27:08.640 --> 00:27:14.200
told you about. Like instantly,
I could see the color of the rocks,
362
00:27:14.200 --> 00:27:18.720
I could see the shit shadows,
every tiny detail just came floating back
363
00:27:18.720 --> 00:27:22.319
into me. When I heard these
whoops coming from the zoo, it was
364
00:27:22.359 --> 00:27:26.920
really weird, and I had to
go to class and the zoo hadn't opened
365
00:27:26.960 --> 00:27:29.559
yet, so I was like,
I'm going once the zoo opens, I'm
366
00:27:29.599 --> 00:27:33.720
going over there and ask the szookeeper
what the heck makes those noises. So
367
00:27:33.799 --> 00:27:37.559
I gave I go, hey,
I don't I'm not I don't want to
368
00:27:37.599 --> 00:27:40.400
go through the zoo. I just
want to know that I want to go
369
00:27:40.400 --> 00:27:44.240
to your primate area and will you
show me. I've heard these really loud
370
00:27:44.279 --> 00:27:47.839
hoops this morning. Here, get
what makes those noises? And he took
371
00:27:47.880 --> 00:27:51.519
me to the given cage and he
goes, those are those are givens,
372
00:27:51.519 --> 00:27:53.559
and that's what you heard in the
morning and they were making a little bit
373
00:27:53.599 --> 00:27:59.799
of whooping sounds, but it was
identical, a little higher pitch and obviously
374
00:28:00.359 --> 00:28:04.720
lunthapathy, but it was the exact
same sound that I'd heard in the forest.
375
00:28:04.960 --> 00:28:08.480
It was bizarre. It froze me
on my bike, like I stopped.
376
00:28:08.480 --> 00:28:11.079
I was oblivious to whatever was going
on around me. I was just
377
00:28:12.039 --> 00:28:18.400
transported back to that gay in the
forest. And up to that point,
378
00:28:18.519 --> 00:28:22.359
like I said, I hadn't never
even crossed my mind until Mike heard those
379
00:28:22.640 --> 00:28:29.160
Givens coming from the zoo. I'm
so glad that you said the little higher
380
00:28:29.200 --> 00:28:36.799
pitch because I personally have heard similar
things and I was just thinking in my
381
00:28:36.839 --> 00:28:40.039
mind. I was like, it
is very much the same, but it's
382
00:28:40.039 --> 00:28:41.680
a little lower. And when you
said little higher pitch, I was like,
383
00:28:42.000 --> 00:28:45.839
yep, absolutely, one hundred percent, but the same kind of sound,
384
00:28:47.480 --> 00:28:51.039
just yeah, just a little higher
pitch. But it was weird that
385
00:28:51.079 --> 00:28:57.559
would just that sound catapulted me back
in times and every single Gekaill just became
386
00:28:57.680 --> 00:29:00.720
so vivid. It was bizarre.
I had a terrible memory. I can't
387
00:29:00.720 --> 00:29:03.720
remember anything. I don't know what
I had for dinner last night, but
388
00:29:03.880 --> 00:29:07.079
how in the heck that could happen
and everything be so clear. It was
389
00:29:07.119 --> 00:29:11.480
just it was really strange, that's
wild. I have a few questions before
390
00:29:11.559 --> 00:29:15.839
we leave this part. Did you
ever ask your grandma if she had any
391
00:29:15.880 --> 00:29:21.279
bigfoot experiences when you were out there
with you know, I don't. I
392
00:29:21.319 --> 00:29:25.359
don't remember, but she never would
have told me anyway. She was pretty
393
00:29:25.519 --> 00:29:27.079
sure she wouldn't because she wouldn't want
to scare them from going back in the
394
00:29:27.119 --> 00:29:30.440
forest. Gotcha, it didn't slow
me out of bed. I just kept
395
00:29:30.480 --> 00:29:34.480
going back out. Yeah, so
I didn't ask. I share with the
396
00:29:34.759 --> 00:29:41.240
Patriot members a little bit about upcoming
episodes, and they're really interested to read
397
00:29:41.480 --> 00:29:45.440
about what you had sent over.
And some of them had some bombers like,
398
00:29:45.440 --> 00:29:48.720
Hey, if you guys have questions
for this INTERVIEWEE put them in the
399
00:29:48.759 --> 00:29:51.799
comments. So there's a few that
are actually related to this part, I
400
00:29:51.839 --> 00:29:57.200
believe. Slaya asked, have these
events have they affected your ability to be
401
00:29:57.279 --> 00:30:02.200
in the mountains in the woods at
all? Or did it not affect you
402
00:30:02.240 --> 00:30:03.920
in a way where you're like,
I'm never going in the woods again.
403
00:30:04.680 --> 00:30:10.400
It didn't, like I said,
I forgot about it for some reason.
404
00:30:10.440 --> 00:30:14.680
It never brother it never slowed me
down again, Like I moved to Idaho
405
00:30:14.759 --> 00:30:18.400
and was I spent? I was
out in the woods all the time.
406
00:30:18.160 --> 00:30:22.640
No, it never died, gotcha. Never had a negative effect. And
407
00:30:22.680 --> 00:30:26.359
even now I live back in Oregon, We're out all the time. I'm
408
00:30:26.400 --> 00:30:32.960
aware and I'm very conscious of that, and I treat the forest a little
409
00:30:32.960 --> 00:30:37.000
differently, I think in terms of
how I approach it in a lot.
410
00:30:37.160 --> 00:30:44.039
I have a lot more gratitude.
I absolutely Scott had some questions. They're
411
00:30:44.079 --> 00:30:48.160
interesting. So you alluded to how
if you grow up in the Pacific Northwest
412
00:30:48.359 --> 00:30:52.640
you know about Bigfoot? Right,
So his question is living in the Pacific
413
00:30:52.720 --> 00:30:56.759
Northwest, Bigfoot seems to be part
of the culture. Were you a believer
414
00:30:56.079 --> 00:31:02.920
before your experiences and you had some
really young age experiences. Yeah, But
415
00:31:03.000 --> 00:31:06.480
I'd never equated that the big Foot
until I heard someone talk about it on
416
00:31:06.519 --> 00:31:08.240
the podcast, and then I was
like, well, kind of like the
417
00:31:08.480 --> 00:31:12.440
bike seing at the zoo. It
just triggered this event because if someone mentioned
418
00:31:12.440 --> 00:31:15.680
it on their shirt on I was
like, oh wow, that kind of
419
00:31:15.680 --> 00:31:18.920
happened to me. Yeah, I
kind of hunt it was really I'd seen
420
00:31:18.960 --> 00:31:23.759
the Roger Patterson film and I think
at that point though, when I was
421
00:31:23.799 --> 00:31:26.519
a kid, I felt like they
just there was one of them, and
422
00:31:26.559 --> 00:31:30.000
that's where they lived down in California, and we joked. We did a
423
00:31:30.039 --> 00:31:33.799
lot of camping, and we were
always joking about it that I don't think
424
00:31:33.799 --> 00:31:37.160
anybody took it serious. For some
at least that the people I knew,
425
00:31:37.200 --> 00:31:41.839
and then the circle of friends I
hung out with up until obviously that point
426
00:31:41.960 --> 00:31:47.039
can but you hear about it that
it just was never I don't know if
427
00:31:47.039 --> 00:31:48.759
we wanted it to be true because
it would keep us from going out.
428
00:31:48.960 --> 00:31:53.119
Maybe we just tuned it out.
We camped in places where I hear about
429
00:31:53.160 --> 00:31:59.240
accounts, the Coast range outs all
over the place, and aside from these
430
00:31:59.279 --> 00:32:01.240
few events that had happened to me
for the amount of time I spent out
431
00:32:01.240 --> 00:32:06.000
there, these are very few.
There was also an interesting part where you
432
00:32:06.000 --> 00:32:09.720
were sharing about the lights coming down
into the trees and you saw those large
433
00:32:09.799 --> 00:32:14.519
lights so the rights, Yeah,
that was really weird. There were three
434
00:32:14.559 --> 00:32:17.599
of them, and there was one
that came down to our I guess that
435
00:32:17.599 --> 00:32:22.079
would be to the east, but
it was maybe at the edge of our
436
00:32:22.119 --> 00:32:23.920
property, or maybe just passed the
edge of our property. We had about
437
00:32:23.920 --> 00:32:28.960
thirteen meters and it just into the
forest. And then there was one that
438
00:32:29.000 --> 00:32:34.559
there's a creek that runs through our
property and it comes down the mountain across
439
00:32:34.640 --> 00:32:37.359
the road, and one of the
lights went down and on the left side,
440
00:32:37.440 --> 00:32:40.599
to the east side of that drainage, and the other one came down
441
00:32:42.039 --> 00:32:46.039
basically right on top before this encounter
happened. Oh really the next day,
442
00:32:46.160 --> 00:32:51.079
Yeah, so this the third light
was the light came down in the basically
443
00:32:51.160 --> 00:32:54.200
that because it was I'd Google Earth
the distance and it was five hundred and
444
00:32:54.240 --> 00:32:59.680
twenty yards away as the prostbars,
and it was basically just right on top
445
00:32:59.720 --> 00:33:04.799
of four had happened. And I
never crossed my mind until I never connected
446
00:33:04.799 --> 00:33:12.920
the two until I started hearing accounts
with lights and and sasquatch being related.
447
00:33:12.920 --> 00:33:15.559
And I don't know whether they or
not this but I never saw those lights,
448
00:33:15.880 --> 00:33:21.160
and I never really had an account
like that until are they connected?
449
00:33:21.240 --> 00:33:24.720
I don't know. That's pretty close
to what is I think he was getting
450
00:33:24.720 --> 00:33:29.480
at. Scott was getting at with
this question perhaps relations to lights, was
451
00:33:29.599 --> 00:33:35.160
seeing that he may believe that there
are big paranormal ties or just a coincidence,
452
00:33:35.359 --> 00:33:37.759
or just a lot of questions.
Yeah, I don't know. I
453
00:33:37.799 --> 00:33:44.000
don't like the word paranormal. I
just think it's nature that we don't know
454
00:33:44.039 --> 00:33:46.720
about love it. Yeah, I
think it's beyond I think it just has
455
00:33:46.759 --> 00:33:50.039
been happening. And I don't know
if he's two or connected, but it
456
00:33:50.079 --> 00:33:55.319
just seemed weird that the light literally
went into the forest where this occurred.
457
00:33:57.440 --> 00:34:01.519
And again I never made that connection
until when I started listening to podcasts.
458
00:34:01.599 --> 00:34:05.599
Even that deal happened and I'm like, oh, the light came down and
459
00:34:05.640 --> 00:34:07.639
now there's something in there. It
was the start of the sting from my
460
00:34:07.679 --> 00:34:12.159
mind, which is bizarre now that
I keep back, and what are the
461
00:34:12.280 --> 00:34:15.159
chances that you have this light coming
down almost in the same area where you
462
00:34:15.159 --> 00:34:20.199
have this encounter, And it's like
that, man, it's got to be
463
00:34:20.239 --> 00:34:23.960
connected somehow. But yeah, we
just don't acknowledge and that now having heard
464
00:34:24.039 --> 00:34:30.000
enough people being interviewed who have had
similar things happen, people are so afraid.
465
00:34:30.039 --> 00:34:35.719
They're just say, you could I
think it's probably connected. How could
466
00:34:35.719 --> 00:34:37.920
it not be because I've never seen
lights before that, and I never had
467
00:34:37.960 --> 00:34:43.400
an encounter quite in that spot,
which is too much for coincidence. Any
468
00:34:43.519 --> 00:34:46.679
UFO activity ever in this area,
not in that area. Huh. That's
469
00:34:46.719 --> 00:34:51.800
pretty fantastic. Feel free to continue. I know. I think we have
470
00:34:52.039 --> 00:34:54.760
a few other things to discuss as
well. I've got yeah, I've got
471
00:34:55.039 --> 00:35:00.599
a couple more on These are not
related to this robbery on the Mackenzie either.
472
00:35:00.719 --> 00:35:05.800
More along in the Wilamitte Pass area, which is from Eugene at south,
473
00:35:05.880 --> 00:35:08.280
so you go through oak Ridge and
you'll end up at Crater Lake and
474
00:35:08.840 --> 00:35:12.920
if you keep going south, you'll
end up in Klamath Falls. But when
475
00:35:12.960 --> 00:35:16.119
I wasn't at up at the Mackenzie
at my grandma's place, I was out.
476
00:35:16.639 --> 00:35:21.159
My dad loved to fly fish and
he got me into fly fishing when
477
00:35:21.199 --> 00:35:24.960
I was really young, and we
would He had a spot up right in
478
00:35:25.000 --> 00:35:29.000
the town of oak Ridge where there's
an old I don't know what's there now,
479
00:35:29.039 --> 00:35:31.679
but there was a rock corry in
town and the river, the Wilamotte
480
00:35:31.719 --> 00:35:37.039
River, flowed through at the bottom
of town and we would fish this rock
481
00:35:37.119 --> 00:35:45.079
corry and it was really excellent trout
fishing. And I was with my dad,
482
00:35:45.159 --> 00:35:50.199
I was probably twelve or thirteen years
old, and we were up fishing
483
00:35:50.239 --> 00:35:55.239
the rock corry and we'd caught some
fish, and there was a little isolated
484
00:35:55.639 --> 00:36:00.239
pool of water up against the hillside
that the fish couldn't get out of.
485
00:36:00.320 --> 00:36:04.880
So I didn't keep fish or we
didn't eat them. We'd let them go,
486
00:36:05.039 --> 00:36:07.199
we'd catch them release them, but
I would. I was young,
487
00:36:07.239 --> 00:36:13.480
and so I put them in this
little pool of water and just watched them
488
00:36:13.559 --> 00:36:16.199
swim around. I was gonna let
them go eventually, and my dad,
489
00:36:16.360 --> 00:36:21.320
hey, let's go up and around
the corner and fish this riffle. And
490
00:36:21.559 --> 00:36:24.039
I'm like, all right, So
we leave the fish. There's probably four
491
00:36:24.079 --> 00:36:30.360
or five fish a rainbow trout in
this pool that's probably the size of a
492
00:36:30.320 --> 00:36:35.440
little plastic kiddy pool. But it's
there's no way in or out. There's
493
00:36:35.480 --> 00:36:37.880
no way for the fish to get
out. And if it was in the
494
00:36:37.920 --> 00:36:40.599
shade I put it. I made
sure they were in the shade. The
495
00:36:40.800 --> 00:36:46.199
forest came down and so the fish
had some shade, and I was gonna
496
00:36:46.239 --> 00:36:51.039
let them go when we got back. So we go with fish and we
497
00:36:51.199 --> 00:36:55.639
come back and the fish are just
completely gone. There's no sign that a
498
00:36:55.639 --> 00:37:00.960
bird had come and plucked them or
anything. There was just really strange.
499
00:37:00.400 --> 00:37:05.639
One minute, the little pools full
of fish and the next minute they're gone.
500
00:37:06.039 --> 00:37:07.199
I don't know if that has anything
to do with Bigfoot. That it
501
00:37:07.239 --> 00:37:14.280
was really weird and it was up
against the hillside and it was just an
502
00:37:14.320 --> 00:37:16.719
odd to come back. And we
both looked at the where'd they go?
503
00:37:17.400 --> 00:37:21.320
There were no ravens around, there
were no I don't know what could have
504
00:37:21.400 --> 00:37:27.679
came in took that many fish.
So that's an interesting side note. And
505
00:37:27.719 --> 00:37:32.840
then I have one more And this
happened at Murray Lake in nineteen eighty seven.
506
00:37:34.519 --> 00:37:37.360
I was a senior in high school
and we were there were five of
507
00:37:37.440 --> 00:37:39.880
us and we were going to go
Three of us were going to hike.
508
00:37:40.000 --> 00:37:44.400
We're going to camp at Murray Lake. And three of us were going to
509
00:37:44.920 --> 00:37:49.760
hike the south side of Diamond Peak
and ski the snowfields up there and come
510
00:37:49.760 --> 00:37:52.280
back and camp, and the other
two guys were going to hang out at
511
00:37:52.280 --> 00:37:55.960
the camp and fish. We leave
the trailhead and we're hiking to the lake
512
00:37:57.119 --> 00:38:00.119
and we get a mile and a
half two mile into the hike and we
513
00:38:00.199 --> 00:38:05.679
come to a lily. So this
is all pine trees and it's high desert
514
00:38:05.760 --> 00:38:09.960
y mountains. It's not rush like
it is on the on the McKenzie where
515
00:38:09.960 --> 00:38:15.239
there's ferns and big fir trees and
sculpts are a bit different ecosystem. So
516
00:38:15.280 --> 00:38:19.920
we're hiking through these dry pine this
little dry pine forest, and we dip
517
00:38:20.000 --> 00:38:23.519
down into this space and that's maybe
four or five, three or four acres.
518
00:38:24.199 --> 00:38:30.480
Then it's just but it's and it
it turns into a totally different clay
519
00:38:30.679 --> 00:38:35.639
ecosystem. It's there's ferns, there's
cedar trees. It's just there. It's
520
00:38:35.679 --> 00:38:42.239
really beautiful. There's a little bog
like a fresh water bog tipe spring coming
521
00:38:42.239 --> 00:38:46.199
out of the ground. It's beautiful. And as we're there's five of us
522
00:38:46.239 --> 00:38:50.880
and we're walking in and we're all
thinking the same thing, Oh wow,
523
00:38:51.480 --> 00:38:55.039
we're going to explore this is real
pretty. And the minute we all got
524
00:38:55.079 --> 00:38:59.719
to this the crown of this little
the trail where we were going to drop
525
00:38:59.719 --> 00:39:05.280
down in to the this area,
this smell just wopped it in on us,
526
00:39:05.440 --> 00:39:09.360
like I don't know, like really
need the dead, like skunt cabbage
527
00:39:09.440 --> 00:39:15.400
times ten with I don't know how
to explain. This awful smell came out
528
00:39:15.400 --> 00:39:20.440
of nowhere, and we instantly all
decided we're just gonna let's just keep going
529
00:39:20.480 --> 00:39:25.039
and keep walking to not for us
not to explore something that cool at that
530
00:39:25.119 --> 00:39:29.440
age, you know, as a
kid, it was bizarre that we all
531
00:39:29.760 --> 00:39:34.440
chose to keep going. And then
the smell just instantly vanished as we left
532
00:39:34.480 --> 00:39:39.440
that spot. So we get to
this lake and where we say, nothing
533
00:39:39.480 --> 00:39:44.440
happens, there's we just camp.
Everything's normal. So next morning, two
534
00:39:44.480 --> 00:39:47.800
of my buddies and I hike Diamond
Peak and we can go and we're skiing
535
00:39:47.840 --> 00:39:52.639
and we make it back to camp
and there's a note they tacked up and
536
00:39:52.719 --> 00:39:57.840
left. The other two guys split
they were gonna fish while we speed,
537
00:39:58.639 --> 00:40:01.000
and we got at the camp and
they'd left, and there was a note
538
00:40:01.039 --> 00:40:06.760
saying mosquitoes were too thick. So
we left. So you're back in town.
539
00:40:07.639 --> 00:40:09.400
But the mosquitoes weren't that bad.
It was weird. It's not like
540
00:40:09.440 --> 00:40:14.320
them to peel out of here,
especially during the day when there's the bugs
541
00:40:14.400 --> 00:40:19.000
are not real buggy during the day. So we like whatever, So we
542
00:40:19.119 --> 00:40:23.239
camp and nothing really, nothing happens, and we get back to town the
543
00:40:23.280 --> 00:40:27.920
next day and when we've run into
our buddies, they're like, hey,
544
00:40:28.239 --> 00:40:31.639
it wasn't that buggy. Why did
you guys leave? And it took him
545
00:40:31.679 --> 00:40:35.800
a second, and they looked at
each other funny and said, the truth
546
00:40:35.920 --> 00:40:40.000
is, when we were fishing,
we kept hearing noises coming out of the
547
00:40:40.039 --> 00:40:45.360
forest. We kept hearing sticks breaking, and we kept hearing strange, grunting
548
00:40:45.400 --> 00:40:51.440
noises. And we played it off
as a bear at first and thought nothing
549
00:40:51.480 --> 00:40:53.280
of it. Thought we'll just go
around the other side of the lake and
550
00:40:53.320 --> 00:40:57.960
fish. But they said it followed
him around the lake. They could hear
551
00:40:58.000 --> 00:41:01.039
it chasing him in the forest and
was making these weird noises at them.
552
00:41:01.079 --> 00:41:05.639
And that's all I got from them, they said. So we got back
553
00:41:05.679 --> 00:41:08.480
to camp and just felt really uneasy
and decided we'd told you that it was
554
00:41:08.519 --> 00:41:10.639
too buggy, and we split.
We got out of there and we were
555
00:41:10.639 --> 00:41:16.920
scared. And that's that's that story. What year was that around? That
556
00:41:17.039 --> 00:41:21.719
was night? That was nineteen Here
I wrote it down the Diamond Peak nineteen
557
00:41:21.760 --> 00:41:29.159
eighty seven. Okay. Interesting,
There is a report on the BFRO from
558
00:41:29.480 --> 00:41:35.199
Diamond Peak Wilderness area where three hunters
were out there. They hear a very
559
00:41:35.239 --> 00:41:42.320
loud scream thirty to forty five seconds. There are reported things from that area,
560
00:41:42.440 --> 00:41:45.119
at least one report that's public,
but that whole area. From what
561
00:41:45.159 --> 00:41:51.679
it sounds like is there's activity all
over the place. Yeah, it's it
562
00:41:52.360 --> 00:41:57.800
is very the Probably what's happened in
the last handful of years is forest fires
563
00:41:57.840 --> 00:42:01.760
that ravaged some of these places where
I'm telling you about this place on the
564
00:42:01.880 --> 00:42:08.039
McKenzie. Maybe in twenty twenty,
just got that whole valley got wiped out
565
00:42:08.119 --> 00:42:14.559
by forest fire. The hillside that
all these things happened to me on it's
566
00:42:14.599 --> 00:42:19.440
gone now it's burnt. Oh wow, it's depressing. It's really sad.
567
00:42:20.280 --> 00:42:22.000
So yeah, I don't know.
It's coming back a little bit. There's
568
00:42:22.039 --> 00:42:24.960
some greenery growing, but the big
fur I don't know how long it's going
569
00:42:25.000 --> 00:42:30.400
to be until the fir trees come
back. There's some maples growing and things
570
00:42:30.440 --> 00:42:34.119
like that, but in some ferns, but it got cooked pretty good.
571
00:42:34.760 --> 00:42:37.320
I think that's about all I got. Oh there's a couple other things if
572
00:42:37.360 --> 00:42:43.800
you want to hear about. This
happened in twenty seventeen or twenty eighteen.
573
00:42:43.840 --> 00:42:45.559
I think somewhere in there. Like
I said, I lived in Idaho.
574
00:42:45.760 --> 00:42:53.719
I moved to Idaho in nineteen eighty
nine and came back in twenty twelve,
575
00:42:54.400 --> 00:43:00.599
and we moved back to the Central
Oregon, but we still have the property
576
00:43:00.639 --> 00:43:02.840
on the Mackenzie and I still have
it today. I spend a lot of
577
00:43:02.840 --> 00:43:08.679
time over there. But so in
twenty seventeen or eighteen, it was Thanksgiving
578
00:43:08.679 --> 00:43:15.559
around Thanksgiving and I was out and
this happened a couple of nights in a
579
00:43:15.639 --> 00:43:17.360
row. It was really bizarre.
I'm out in the yard. It gets
580
00:43:17.440 --> 00:43:22.559
dark real early, so maybe five
or six in the evening, but it's
581
00:43:22.760 --> 00:43:25.440
pretty it's dark, and it's pouring
down rain. It rained the lot over
582
00:43:25.480 --> 00:43:30.760
there, and I don't know what
I'm outside doing, using them, going
583
00:43:30.760 --> 00:43:35.519
to the bathroom or something. And
I hear what sounds like up and it's
584
00:43:36.000 --> 00:43:38.519
like I had said, there's a
creek that runs through our property and it
585
00:43:38.599 --> 00:43:45.320
drains out on this hillside across the
road. And I heard what sounded like
586
00:43:45.360 --> 00:43:52.199
the truck breaks screeching down like like
it sound like they're wet and screeching down
587
00:43:52.280 --> 00:43:57.880
a road, just this weird,
metallic, grindy sound coming from where there
588
00:43:57.920 --> 00:44:00.760
was no roads at all. It
was just a ravine with a creak in
589
00:44:00.760 --> 00:44:05.159
it, and it was really loud
and freaky. It was just like what
590
00:44:05.239 --> 00:44:09.679
the heck, But it sounded just
like metal on metal breaks. And I
591
00:44:09.719 --> 00:44:14.679
heard it maybe two or three nights
in a row. And then on that
592
00:44:14.800 --> 00:44:19.800
same time frame, maybe a day
or two later, my neighbor comes over
593
00:44:20.519 --> 00:44:23.119
and he's maybe a couple one hundred
yards down the river from me, and
594
00:44:23.119 --> 00:44:28.360
he's like, Man, I was
in my house and I started hearing these
595
00:44:28.440 --> 00:44:34.280
owls coming from your property, like
huge owls, giant owls coming from your
596
00:44:34.320 --> 00:44:38.360
property. So I went outside and
I was listening, and I could hear
597
00:44:38.400 --> 00:44:43.320
them. They sounded like owls,
but it was like they're huge and the
598
00:44:43.400 --> 00:44:46.239
way too, but they sounded like
owls, but they didn't sound like owls
599
00:44:46.280 --> 00:44:50.599
because then they were huge. And
I kept so I started walking towards your
600
00:44:50.599 --> 00:44:55.280
property and that sound kept going on, but it kept moving away. So
601
00:44:55.480 --> 00:45:00.440
the closer I'd get, the further
it would they would move off. It
602
00:45:00.519 --> 00:45:04.599
sounded like they were in the forest
on the east side of your house,
603
00:45:04.920 --> 00:45:07.639
and they just it just vanished.
The noise stopped, which I again,
604
00:45:08.360 --> 00:45:13.480
at that time Bigfoot. I had
not ever heard a big Foot podcast,
605
00:45:13.559 --> 00:45:16.960
and I just thought that was weird. Same with the breakscreaching thing. Now,
606
00:45:17.840 --> 00:45:22.679
knowing what I know because of being
listened to these podcasts, it's like,
607
00:45:22.199 --> 00:45:25.599
huh, you hear about al and
you hear about these weird sounds.
608
00:45:25.760 --> 00:45:30.800
I thought I'd add that to some
of the things that I've experienced. That's
609
00:45:30.000 --> 00:45:34.880
probably as some of the weirdest things. And this is back in twenty seventeen.
610
00:45:34.920 --> 00:45:37.559
You said, Yeah, seventeen or
eighteen, I can't remember. In
611
00:45:37.639 --> 00:45:43.719
November, so you still own that
property. Oh yeah, we're I'm there
612
00:45:43.719 --> 00:45:45.719
all the time. Oh okay,
And I'm a school teacher, so I
613
00:45:45.719 --> 00:45:52.400
get to spend my whole summer over
there. Nice anything weird sound like that?
614
00:45:52.320 --> 00:45:57.599
Sound wise happened lately or just the
last time was back in seventeen or
615
00:45:57.639 --> 00:46:00.480
eighteen, that was it. Yeah, And then, like I said in
616
00:46:00.519 --> 00:46:04.400
twenty twenty that the fires put through
there, and yeah, took everything out.
617
00:46:04.800 --> 00:46:07.639
But I did set up a game
cam before and I wouldn't get anything.
618
00:46:07.679 --> 00:46:12.280
I got tugars and bears and deer
and turkeys. That was it.
619
00:46:12.800 --> 00:46:16.679
But yeah, it was It sounded
like breaks screeching down coming down the creek
620
00:46:16.679 --> 00:46:21.920
pad basically when there was no road. It was bizarre. And then I
621
00:46:21.920 --> 00:46:23.480
had never heard the owls, but
my neighbors said it freaked them out.
622
00:46:23.480 --> 00:46:29.239
He said, you could hear him
over his TV one hundred yards down river
623
00:46:29.280 --> 00:46:32.400
from me, so he's an older
city guy, so he didn't know what
624
00:46:32.440 --> 00:46:37.559
to make of it. I definitely
feel like there's some sort of memicry that's
625
00:46:37.639 --> 00:46:43.440
involved. You hear things like what
you mentioned. You also hear things like
626
00:46:44.440 --> 00:46:51.679
car doors slamming where there's no cars
or rusty gates is one. It's just
627
00:46:52.119 --> 00:46:55.239
it's very strange. Yeah, the
rusty metal, that's what it sounded like,
628
00:46:55.360 --> 00:46:59.280
rusty metal, and it's bizarre,
and it was it was loud.
629
00:46:59.320 --> 00:47:01.639
It was just right across the road
for me up on the Veld, and
630
00:47:01.679 --> 00:47:05.199
then there are a couple of logging
roads up there, but this is nowhere
631
00:47:05.239 --> 00:47:08.199
near one of the roads. It
was just coming out of the forest.
632
00:47:08.760 --> 00:47:15.599
Which knows. You've definitely had some
really interesting things happen over your life so
633
00:47:15.679 --> 00:47:21.679
far, and thank you so much
for sharing with myself and the listeners.
634
00:47:21.880 --> 00:47:27.119
And it's amazing you still have that
property area up there. Yeah, aything
635
00:47:27.199 --> 00:47:31.079
else happens. Definitely feel free to
reach out. I will indeed. Yeah,
636
00:47:31.159 --> 00:47:36.440
thank you for having me on the
show. I appreciate your time and
637
00:47:37.039 --> 00:47:39.559
I'd love listening to your podcast.
Do you think you might make it down
638
00:47:39.599 --> 00:47:44.519
to Oakridge this summer coming up.
I'll have to look at my schedule.
639
00:47:44.599 --> 00:47:46.719
Yeah, i'd like to. I've
never been to one of these before.
640
00:47:46.800 --> 00:47:52.119
And my twelve year old son is
heavy into the whole Sasquatch things, so
641
00:47:52.199 --> 00:47:57.159
I might bring him over and check
it out, maybe camp or something.
642
00:47:57.440 --> 00:48:00.280
It's going to be a hop and
time. If he's in the big there's
643
00:48:00.320 --> 00:48:04.440
gonna be people there that it's the
time that they're in Oregon. They probably
644
00:48:04.440 --> 00:48:08.039
won't be there again. But man, I know we make it over to
645
00:48:08.239 --> 00:48:13.719
Cliff's Museum once a year, little
pilgrimage. So we'll go and we'll go
646
00:48:13.800 --> 00:48:17.719
and get a little place in the
forest and go squatching and go conk Cliff
647
00:48:17.760 --> 00:48:22.360
a little bit. So that's pretty
fun. How cool is that? Man?
648
00:48:22.079 --> 00:48:27.760
Yeah? Those flips I heard.
And he's got that giant Fasquatching is
649
00:48:28.159 --> 00:48:30.960
museum yep, and he's got to
cook up some sound hooked up to and
650
00:48:30.960 --> 00:48:35.880
that's what those whips sound exactly like
what he's got going on in Mercy and
651
00:48:36.000 --> 00:48:38.280
Sasquatch love it. Yeah, to
get over there myself one day, for
652
00:48:38.360 --> 00:48:42.800
sure, But it's cool. Yeah, he keeps adding to it, so
653
00:48:43.000 --> 00:48:46.639
we keep going back absolutely. Brad, thank you so much for hanging out

stories. Maybe there's somebody else out
there listening it's too afraid to tell their
688
00:52:12.960 --> 00:52:15.800
story. Maybe this will give them
the courage to come out. And I
689

feel so bad about it. Who
cares what anybody's thinks. I know what

know. If you ever see one of

these things, you need to tell
because if you don't, then shame on

you,
