What happens when a man encounters a massive Sasquatch throwing rocks at his campsite in the eerie forests of Oregon’s Detroit Lake region? In this chilling episode, we sit down with Jared, a local who’s had multiple Bigfoot encounters since 2005. From witnessing an eight-foot Sasquatch crouched by his tent to hearing terrifying howls near Garnet Lake, Jared shares his jaw-dropping stories of close encounters with the elusive creature. With glowing red eyes, massive footprints, and strange rock formations, his experiences in areas like South Breitenbush Gorge and Gold Butte Lookout are enough to make any skeptic rethink the existence of Bigfoot. But is it just Bigfoot—or something darker? Jared's encounters leave him with more questions than answers, and in this episode, we explore the mystery of Oregon's Bigfoot Highway and the creatures lurking in the forests.

Tonight's story comes from a man who spent years camping

3
00:00:08.000 --> 00:00:10.240
in the remote forest of Oregon, but in two thousand

4
00:00:10.240 --> 00:00:13.039
and five, something stalked him in the woods, something with

5
00:00:13.119 --> 00:00:15.720
glowing red eyes and a throw of rocks that sent

6
00:00:15.800 --> 00:00:19.079
his dog running in fear. The creature was massive, standing

7
00:00:19.160 --> 00:00:22.239
over eight foot tall, with a face twisted in a strange,

8
00:00:22.280 --> 00:00:25.359
unsettling grin. This is a tail from some far off

9
00:00:25.359 --> 00:00:28.440
mountain legend. It's a first hand account from Jared, who's

10
00:00:28.480 --> 00:00:31.640
had multiple encounters with Bigfoot in the Detroit Lake area,

11
00:00:32.079 --> 00:00:35.240
including rock throwing, eerie howls, and even a strange beast

12
00:00:35.759 --> 00:00:38.280
that walked on two legs with the body of a wolf.

13
00:00:38.759 --> 00:00:41.679
So buckle up. This story will leave you wondering what

14
00:00:41.840 --> 00:00:45.600

pass things over to you. Feel free to take us

28
00:01:24.400 --> 00:01:29.599
back to when these experiences started happening for you out there.

29
00:01:30.799 --> 00:01:37.599
About two thousand five, two thousand and four, and then

30
00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:43.359
recently last year, last year, and then twenty twenty, right

31
00:01:43.359 --> 00:01:46.799
before all, right before the fires came through, I've seen

32
00:01:46.840 --> 00:01:49.000
a lot of activity and I think they were running

33
00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:53.000
out from the fires or something. But the two thousand

34
00:01:52.959 --> 00:01:57.040
and eight one, I was camping with my brothers and

35
00:01:57.120 --> 00:02:01.560
we kept hearing sticks and stuff breaking, and they're sitting

36
00:02:01.599 --> 00:02:05.519
by the campfire. And then like my brother was telling me,

37
00:02:05.560 --> 00:02:07.799
he said, quit throwing rocks at me, and I said,

38
00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:11.319
it's not me. And then we then a big rock

39
00:02:11.360 --> 00:02:13.240
came flying through the trees like right next to us.

40
00:02:13.719 --> 00:02:14.879
Shine a flashlight out there.

41
00:02:15.280 --> 00:02:15.639
Nothing.

42
00:02:16.360 --> 00:02:19.639
He went back to just talking and stuff, and here

43
00:02:19.719 --> 00:02:22.039
comes more a little rocks thrown at us, and then

44
00:02:22.080 --> 00:02:24.400
my dog was there and he went right in the tent.

45
00:02:24.639 --> 00:02:26.919
Were really scared, so we thought it was maybe like

46
00:02:26.960 --> 00:02:30.639
a squirrel or something, a tree, or one of my

47
00:02:30.680 --> 00:02:33.879
friends messing with us. So then it kept going on

48
00:02:33.960 --> 00:02:36.560
for like an hour or so more Rockstone started us

49
00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:40.159
throwing or throwing at us, and finally shining laughter and

50
00:02:40.199 --> 00:02:44.680
seeing like red red ice, red ice turn right out us.

51
00:02:45.759 --> 00:02:48.680
So my brother said, no, I'm a sleeping the trup tonight.

52
00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:52.120
So I fired out a gun and then it stopped

53
00:02:52.120 --> 00:02:54.680
for a long time, and then I got woken up

54
00:02:55.599 --> 00:02:58.280
in the night by something something ram on my tent

55
00:02:59.199 --> 00:03:02.719
and then it tripped tripped over my tin or something

56
00:03:02.719 --> 00:03:05.520
to my tent. I've seen this, seen the shadow of it,

57
00:03:06.560 --> 00:03:08.000
and I shown him out there and I was standing

58
00:03:08.039 --> 00:03:11.960
right there looking at me over I was like over

59
00:03:11.960 --> 00:03:16.599
eight feet tall, all brown, like a browns black, seeing

60
00:03:16.639 --> 00:03:20.240
his face everything and like human hands with it all

61
00:03:20.240 --> 00:03:22.240
covered hair, and then his face looked like a human

62
00:03:22.280 --> 00:03:25.240
but with hair all over it. And then it's like

63
00:03:25.360 --> 00:03:28.879
kind of like smiling at smiling at me. And then

64
00:03:28.919 --> 00:03:31.360
my brother woke up and he just went like almost

65
00:03:31.360 --> 00:03:33.439
a panic attack. He said, I've never seen anything that

66
00:03:33.439 --> 00:03:36.360
does it. We could never find any footprints after that,

67
00:03:36.919 --> 00:03:40.199
and then we're that the morning. He said was that

68
00:03:40.199 --> 00:03:43.639
a dream? And I said, no, that was real, and

69
00:03:43.719 --> 00:03:47.240
so he's now we have never been up back up

70
00:03:47.240 --> 00:03:48.879
that lake again since then.

71
00:03:49.919 --> 00:03:52.000
That's wow. There's a lot to unpack from that shared.

72
00:03:52.080 --> 00:03:53.000
So did that happen?

73
00:03:53.400 --> 00:03:53.680
That's all?

74
00:03:54.400 --> 00:03:55.520
Yeah? Did that happen?

75
00:03:56.439 --> 00:03:59.879
Lake? Detroit Lake was above Detroit like so was like

76
00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:03.400
by Tooley Lake. I'm sure there's a lot of people

77
00:04:03.400 --> 00:04:04.840
want to call on the an ornament and know where

78
00:04:04.879 --> 00:04:05.400
that lake is?

79
00:04:06.840 --> 00:04:09.520
Okay, and is that I'm looking it up right now,

80
00:04:09.560 --> 00:04:14.240
so do Tuley Lake? Is this the southeast of Detroit?

81
00:04:15.719 --> 00:04:18.560
Yeah? Stores of like bearing forks up in that area.

82
00:04:18.720 --> 00:04:24.000
Okay, gotcha? Gotcha? So I just want to make sure

83
00:04:24.040 --> 00:04:27.000
I heard it right. So it ran up on the

84
00:04:27.079 --> 00:04:30.480
tent so kind of like charged tent, but also.

85
00:04:30.399 --> 00:04:32.560
No, I ran it ran past the tent and tripped

86
00:04:32.600 --> 00:04:35.720
over my my rope going to the tent where my

87
00:04:35.759 --> 00:04:36.319
tent bags are?

88
00:04:36.439 --> 00:04:37.319
Is that close my tent?

89
00:04:37.759 --> 00:04:40.639
Wow? But no, no smell or.

90
00:04:40.639 --> 00:04:44.279
Nothing, And so it tripped over the tent rope. Did

91
00:04:44.319 --> 00:04:46.759
it fall as well from that trip? Nope?

92
00:04:46.920 --> 00:04:50.279
Nope, broke broke my tent, Kent and rope snapped it

93
00:04:50.360 --> 00:04:50.800
right off.

94
00:04:51.759 --> 00:04:56.639
Absolutely, so yeah, that mustn't that. It's amazing. It didn't

95
00:04:56.639 --> 00:04:59.399
take everything down, to be honest. Uh you so you

96
00:04:59.519 --> 00:05:04.040
saw you saw the actual details of the face. You're saying,

97
00:05:04.360 --> 00:05:08.879
oh yeah, shun the light right on it? How close? Okay?

98
00:05:08.879 --> 00:05:11.240
How close? About ten feet? Yeah?

99
00:05:11.279 --> 00:05:11.759
Ten feet?

100
00:05:11.759 --> 00:05:15.439
All right? Were there any details that you remember that

101
00:05:15.519 --> 00:05:17.879
really stood out from being able to look at that

102
00:05:18.000 --> 00:05:18.839
face so.

103
00:05:18.920 --> 00:05:23.839
Close, like that canine teeth on it, because it was

104
00:05:23.879 --> 00:05:27.879
like kind of smell and smiling at us. And then

105
00:05:28.000 --> 00:05:31.439
it's like the face was all wrinkly kind of they

106
00:05:31.439 --> 00:05:35.920
it looked like an ape, but like just really really big,

107
00:05:38.360 --> 00:05:44.519
really shaggy hair, like big like no neck, no neck

108
00:05:44.560 --> 00:05:50.959
at all, that's remembered, no neck, small little ears, and

109
00:05:51.000 --> 00:05:54.240
then the really big arms.

110
00:05:55.199 --> 00:05:56.879
Bye by big arms?

111
00:05:56.879 --> 00:05:57.120
Are you?

112
00:05:57.199 --> 00:05:59.759
Are you saying like the muscular definition of them?

113
00:06:00.680 --> 00:06:00.879
Yeah?

114
00:06:01.000 --> 00:06:01.600
Mostly?

115
00:06:01.680 --> 00:06:01.920
Yeah?

116
00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:02.920
Okay?

117
00:06:03.399 --> 00:06:05.000
That like long hair though.

118
00:06:07.680 --> 00:06:10.879
How long would you would you guess that? The hair

119
00:06:10.959 --> 00:06:18.480
length was probably six raight inches long? Okay? Gotcha? Did

120
00:06:18.560 --> 00:06:21.720
the hair of it looked like it was? Was it

121
00:06:21.800 --> 00:06:25.600
messed up or or how did it look that was

122
00:06:25.600 --> 00:06:26.399
pretty messed up?

123
00:06:26.639 --> 00:06:29.639
I think. I think when you fell you had like

124
00:06:29.680 --> 00:06:31.000
pine nettles and stuff stuck in it.

125
00:06:32.199 --> 00:06:40.199
Gotcha? How long down did the arms stretch on the creature?

126
00:06:40.560 --> 00:06:43.040
Oh? Past past its ways?

127
00:06:43.199 --> 00:06:48.839
Okay, gotcha? Gotcha? Could you do you remember anything about

128
00:06:48.839 --> 00:06:49.519
the eyes at all?

129
00:06:51.279 --> 00:06:55.480
Yeah? There were like a yellowish yellowish red kind of

130
00:06:57.240 --> 00:06:59.199
I don't remember the eyes what it glows. I shined

131
00:06:59.199 --> 00:07:00.000
the light right in his face.

132
00:07:01.480 --> 00:07:06.959
Gotcha. Do you remember what was the nose more of

133
00:07:07.040 --> 00:07:10.720
an ape like nose or a human like nose, ape

134
00:07:10.920 --> 00:07:15.319
ape like nose? Okay? And were you able to see

135
00:07:15.600 --> 00:07:17.120
a shape to the head at all?

136
00:07:19.319 --> 00:07:20.759
Yeah, it was like it had no neck.

137
00:07:23.639 --> 00:07:27.120
Gotcha. Uh the top of the head. Did you notice

138
00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:31.680
if maybe it was rounded off or sometime it curved

139
00:07:31.800 --> 00:07:34.519
up a little bit, round it off on top?

140
00:07:34.879 --> 00:07:35.160
Okay?

141
00:07:35.360 --> 00:07:40.800
Gotcha. Was it making any type of face when you

142
00:07:40.959 --> 00:07:43.439
shine the light on it, or like any emotions at all?

143
00:07:44.920 --> 00:07:46.399
Well, it's trying to light on it and kind of

144
00:07:46.399 --> 00:07:49.720
like put his hand towards his face and then it

145
00:07:49.839 --> 00:07:51.680
dropped his hand out, and like, oh, it looks like

146
00:07:51.720 --> 00:07:53.279
it was like smiling at us. Was weird?

147
00:07:56.399 --> 00:07:57.000
Interesting?

148
00:07:57.360 --> 00:08:00.279
Like it is? Yeah?

149
00:08:01.079 --> 00:08:05.319
Was there anything that you noticed about it that let's

150
00:08:05.399 --> 00:08:09.199
let's imagine that we're watching like a Bigfoot show and

151
00:08:09.240 --> 00:08:11.399
they're saying, oh, yeah, Bigfoot does this and does this

152
00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:13.800
and looks like this. Did you notice anything that night

153
00:08:13.959 --> 00:08:17.480
that was like totally different than those Bigfoot shows would

154
00:08:17.519 --> 00:08:18.319
usually say.

155
00:08:19.519 --> 00:08:24.000
No, crickets, nothing, it was there was not even a sound,

156
00:08:25.240 --> 00:08:27.160
That's what it was. Really where not even any wind.

157
00:08:27.439 --> 00:08:32.159
It's just it's like, really weird. I've never like every

158
00:08:32.200 --> 00:08:33.960
time I've been up I've been up to different lakes before,

159
00:08:34.000 --> 00:08:36.879
and there's always at crickets and golden and stuff like that.

160
00:08:36.879 --> 00:08:40.120
That night when the rock start getting town us, that's sound.

161
00:08:41.759 --> 00:08:45.159
How hard is it to get into this Touley Lake area?

162
00:08:45.639 --> 00:08:50.679
Oh, you drive right to it. There lakes right on

163
00:08:50.679 --> 00:08:52.360
the road that you can camp. There was like three

164
00:08:52.360 --> 00:08:53.159
different camp spots.

165
00:08:54.240 --> 00:08:58.840
Gotcha. Yeah, so you you can drive in on a

166
00:08:58.919 --> 00:09:01.559
service road. But is it a while off of let's

167
00:09:01.559 --> 00:09:06.919
see that this was it Santiam Highway would be the

168
00:09:07.120 --> 00:09:10.080
nearest big road probably, yeah, yeah.

169
00:09:10.159 --> 00:09:12.240
And then there's that's the highway, and then you go

170
00:09:12.360 --> 00:09:16.320
up the Parish Lake Road that's pavement, and then you

171
00:09:16.440 --> 00:09:19.799
hit another gravel road that takes you right to the lake.

172
00:09:23.039 --> 00:09:25.279
But there's a lot around that whole entire lake. There's

173
00:09:25.279 --> 00:09:29.000
a lot of blueberry bushes and stuff, huckleberry bushes. There's

174
00:09:29.039 --> 00:09:31.480
like a lot of a lot of feed for them.

175
00:09:31.519 --> 00:09:32.240
I guess up there.

176
00:09:34.279 --> 00:09:36.840
Have you been back to that spot since that time?

177
00:09:38.120 --> 00:09:40.679
Went back last year? Heard wooden knops? Oh?

178
00:09:40.799 --> 00:09:42.879
Okay, gotcha? Gotcha?

179
00:09:42.879 --> 00:09:46.159
Oh man, I knocked on a tree last year after camping.

180
00:09:46.600 --> 00:09:47.960
I got three response back.

181
00:09:48.440 --> 00:09:48.960
Oh really.

182
00:09:50.039 --> 00:09:55.200
I didn't stay tonight though, I just I just went

183
00:09:55.240 --> 00:09:56.960
up there, went fishing for a little bit and did

184
00:09:56.960 --> 00:09:57.720
three wooden knocks.

185
00:09:57.759 --> 00:09:59.159
And my dog wouldn't even get out of the truck.

186
00:10:01.360 --> 00:10:03.759
Oh wow, Was it just you that went back to

187
00:10:04.000 --> 00:10:04.879
so you and your dog?

188
00:10:05.799 --> 00:10:06.039
Yeah?

189
00:10:06.080 --> 00:10:06.639
You mean me dog?

190
00:10:06.720 --> 00:10:07.120
Yeah?

191
00:10:10.720 --> 00:10:15.080
Wow, that's and that was two thousand and eight. You

192
00:10:15.159 --> 00:10:19.639
were saying, yeah, I went back last last year. Were yeah,

193
00:10:19.679 --> 00:10:21.320
last year, last summer went backed up there?

194
00:10:21.559 --> 00:10:23.559
Okay, last summer. I did a wood knock and I

195
00:10:23.559 --> 00:10:27.279
had two knocks back and then a howl. I said, nope,

196
00:10:27.360 --> 00:10:28.320
I'm out here.

197
00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:32.759
Same area, same area. Okay, So you knocked the tree

198
00:10:33.399 --> 00:10:37.200
three knocks back and also a howl? And yeah, how

199
00:10:38.200 --> 00:10:40.879
what was the howl like? Were you able to describe

200
00:10:40.879 --> 00:10:41.279
that at.

201
00:10:41.200 --> 00:10:44.960
All, uh, it so like almost like a wolf, but

202
00:10:45.080 --> 00:10:51.480
like really deep, really really deep. So okay, I think

203
00:10:51.480 --> 00:10:53.279
it's like talking about the same howl as you done

204
00:10:53.279 --> 00:10:56.799
on your on your shows.

205
00:10:57.360 --> 00:11:01.080
Yeah. Absolutely, it's pretty drawn out or a pretty quick

206
00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:02.799
how it.

207
00:11:02.919 --> 00:11:07.360
Was pretty it's pretty thrown out. Okay, Okay, I'm saying

208
00:11:07.360 --> 00:11:08.360
the probably want me out of.

209
00:11:08.360 --> 00:11:11.879
There, right, Yeah, exactly. You don't really want to stick

210
00:11:11.879 --> 00:11:15.399
around for that stuff. But yeah, Jared, that's a that's

211
00:11:15.399 --> 00:11:20.919
a wild first uh first way to to to see

212
00:11:20.919 --> 00:11:24.759
a big foot. Absolutely, but feel free to continue with

213
00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:28.080
any of your other experiences you'd like to share.

214
00:11:29.480 --> 00:11:34.480
So the next next one was up bright Bush, bright

215
00:11:34.519 --> 00:11:36.799
Bush Road. We're up me and my brother's up driving

216
00:11:36.840 --> 00:11:40.360
around up there. Came around driving down the road and

217
00:11:40.399 --> 00:11:42.039
my brother seeing something sitting on the side the road,

218
00:11:42.080 --> 00:11:42.519
hunched over.

219
00:11:43.159 --> 00:11:43.960
I said, what is that?

220
00:11:44.879 --> 00:11:46.440
I thought it was like a deer's on or a bear,

221
00:11:46.559 --> 00:11:51.039
but it was light brown. Got up like we were

222
00:11:51.159 --> 00:11:55.200
probably about twenty feet from it. Got up as oh

223
00:11:55.240 --> 00:11:59.360
my gosh, it took two steps across the road and

224
00:11:59.399 --> 00:12:02.879
then I slid on the brakes right for across the

225
00:12:02.919 --> 00:12:05.840
road and that south was it had him been over

226
00:12:05.840 --> 00:12:08.960
ten feet tall, light brown color, and we got on

227
00:12:08.960 --> 00:12:10.960
the truck and tried to snap it a picture, but

228
00:12:11.039 --> 00:12:13.720
it went up the bank so fast, and the smell

229
00:12:14.600 --> 00:12:18.080
that one stunk. It was eating it eating a rabbit,

230
00:12:18.200 --> 00:12:21.919
dead rabbit on the side of the road. My brother

231
00:12:22.399 --> 00:12:24.559
tried going after it, and then it made this weird

232
00:12:25.799 --> 00:12:28.879
like grunting sound at us, yelling like a scream. My

233
00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:30.879
brother came running back down. We got in the truck

234
00:12:30.879 --> 00:12:34.120
and left. But I had never smelt something so rotten before.

235
00:12:34.720 --> 00:12:37.480
But it was not the rabbit. It was the creature

236
00:12:39.080 --> 00:12:41.320
that one was. That's that's all we saw in that one.

237
00:12:42.679 --> 00:12:46.159
Were oh yeah, go ahead, yeah, yeah, yeah.

238
00:12:46.200 --> 00:12:49.000
We saw the face on that one. It didn't look

239
00:12:49.080 --> 00:12:52.720
like it had hair all over his face and big

240
00:12:52.759 --> 00:12:54.360
big teeth on it.

241
00:12:56.240 --> 00:12:58.120
Also canaine like teeth.

242
00:12:58.559 --> 00:13:00.679
Yeah, canine. I don't know what kind of big foot

243
00:13:00.720 --> 00:13:01.000
that word?

244
00:13:02.399 --> 00:13:05.159
Yeah, I was going to ask it. So would you

245
00:13:05.240 --> 00:13:09.879
say what you saw that time was similar with face

246
00:13:10.000 --> 00:13:13.039
details wise to what you saw in two thousand and eight,

247
00:13:13.120 --> 00:13:17.320
No way different? What were the things that were mainly different?

248
00:13:19.080 --> 00:13:21.600
All hair on his face, hook he covered in hair,

249
00:13:24.559 --> 00:13:28.919
and a little slightly bigger ears and a bigger nose,

250
00:13:29.200 --> 00:13:33.080
and then his eyes. He looked his eyes were right,

251
00:13:33.759 --> 00:13:35.840
I don't know, like splinted a little bit. He looked

252
00:13:36.120 --> 00:13:38.080
mad that we came up on him. The way is

253
00:13:38.240 --> 00:13:39.960
crouched over is weird?

254
00:13:40.480 --> 00:13:43.039
How how was it weird? Do you remember any details

255
00:13:43.080 --> 00:13:46.759
about what made the way it was crunched over or

256
00:13:46.840 --> 00:13:47.360
crouched over?

257
00:13:49.399 --> 00:13:51.759
Well, he was like you're standing. I was like laying

258
00:13:51.799 --> 00:13:54.240
down on his knees, like laying down on his arms,

259
00:13:55.279 --> 00:13:58.240
munching on that rabbit. And then when he took off,

260
00:13:58.840 --> 00:14:01.279
when he stood up, let's realized how big it was.

261
00:14:02.440 --> 00:14:06.279
It's like a a centilar color dan color.

262
00:14:07.759 --> 00:14:08.399
But it went up.

263
00:14:08.480 --> 00:14:10.240
It took two steps across the road, and that's when

264
00:14:10.279 --> 00:14:14.399
we stopped. And the smell so like a skunk, skunk

265
00:14:14.759 --> 00:14:19.840
rotten meat, and then it whipped up the bank. That's

266
00:14:19.879 --> 00:14:23.679
what my brother ran after it, and then it screamed. Anyway,

267
00:14:23.759 --> 00:14:25.639
he came back now, and we got the bag up

268
00:14:25.639 --> 00:14:28.159
and drove that gravel road for eighty miles an hour

269
00:14:29.159 --> 00:14:31.320
and kept looking behind to see what was chasing us.

270
00:14:32.480 --> 00:14:35.639
And when you drove away, were you going back towards

271
00:14:35.639 --> 00:14:39.519
Detroit or did you go up towards Estacada.

272
00:14:40.000 --> 00:14:40.960
Back towards the Detroit.

273
00:14:41.039 --> 00:14:46.320
Yeah, okay, it makes sense. Wow, uh yeah. Did you

274
00:14:46.320 --> 00:14:49.720
get any feeling as to if it was a male

275
00:14:49.840 --> 00:14:50.399
or female?

276
00:14:51.399 --> 00:14:52.759
I think it was a I think it was a male.

277
00:14:53.320 --> 00:14:59.639
Way the way how big it was, gotcha. I still

278
00:14:59.679 --> 00:15:01.679
have not not off that road. That was in two

279
00:15:01.679 --> 00:15:02.679
thousand and.

280
00:15:04.200 --> 00:15:04.519
Six.

281
00:15:04.799 --> 00:15:08.399
It was right right when I got to high school. Well,

282
00:15:08.399 --> 00:15:11.200
I still not. I've not drive up that road since.

283
00:15:11.480 --> 00:15:15.159
My brothers have not drilled up that road since. Yeah, don't.

284
00:15:15.159 --> 00:15:16.759
I don't think i'll drive up back that road again.

285
00:15:18.039 --> 00:15:22.559
Have you heard of any other people having encounters or

286
00:15:22.600 --> 00:15:23.600
sightings on that road?

287
00:15:25.399 --> 00:15:25.600
Yeah?

288
00:15:25.720 --> 00:15:27.879
Well, my other buddy works for the forcers who retired

289
00:15:28.000 --> 00:15:32.480
seeing one up there. Oh really, Yeah, it wasn't that

290
00:15:32.600 --> 00:15:36.720
cinema color one those light brown or like a dark brown.

291
00:15:37.000 --> 00:15:38.440
But it wasn't. He said it wasn't very big as

292
00:15:38.480 --> 00:15:41.000
only he thought it was a bear walking up right,

293
00:15:41.039 --> 00:15:43.159
And he said, no, bears don't walk up right and

294
00:15:43.159 --> 00:15:51.799
go up a steep a bank upright. That's what. Yeah,

295
00:15:51.840 --> 00:15:54.240
he saw just about in the same area as a

296
00:15:54.279 --> 00:15:57.360
big like one. Two mountains come together. There's a big

297
00:15:58.320 --> 00:16:01.559
canyon in there and the road goes right through it.

298
00:16:01.600 --> 00:16:03.759
I think they're using that canyon to go through there.

299
00:16:06.080 --> 00:16:08.879
Uh does that? Does that area have a name or

300
00:16:09.080 --> 00:16:10.799
just known by locals?

301
00:16:11.320 --> 00:16:14.080
It's called South Brighton Bush South South.

302
00:16:13.840 --> 00:16:19.080
Brightbush gorget okay, and there's a go very top. There's

303
00:16:19.159 --> 00:16:30.080
lakes up there, Hiken too are are have you? Have

304
00:16:30.200 --> 00:16:34.399
you driven that road from Detroit Lake up to Estacada

305
00:16:34.919 --> 00:16:40.720
the whole thing before? Yeah, yep. Yeah, it's just there's

306
00:16:40.759 --> 00:16:44.320
a lot of activity that's been reported. It actually has

307
00:16:44.360 --> 00:16:46.360
a name. I don't know if you're familiar with it

308
00:16:46.399 --> 00:16:49.639
has a name where it's actually called the Oregon Bigfoot Highway.

309
00:16:49.759 --> 00:16:50.559
It's pretty wild.

310
00:16:50.679 --> 00:16:50.919
Yep.

311
00:16:51.440 --> 00:16:54.919
It's one of the most active areas in Oregon. So

312
00:16:55.120 --> 00:16:57.480
I am not surprised at all that you had that

313
00:16:57.759 --> 00:17:02.519
experience down in South Brighton Brush Gorge area.

314
00:17:03.600 --> 00:17:10.880
Yeah, that's that that one. I saw another one or

315
00:17:11.640 --> 00:17:15.680
this was just like a few minutes long though, so

316
00:17:15.960 --> 00:17:17.240
like really telling another story?

317
00:17:17.319 --> 00:17:18.640
Oh yeah, go ahead, yeah sure.

318
00:17:19.319 --> 00:17:21.400
So this was from last year. I me and my

319
00:17:21.480 --> 00:17:24.559
buddy worked with the Forest Service. He's retired now. Hyped

320
00:17:24.640 --> 00:17:28.759
up a lake up bright and brush no trail bush

321
00:17:28.799 --> 00:17:32.119
wacked all the talk to this lake. Got to the

322
00:17:32.200 --> 00:17:36.440
lake and he seen footprints and the fire burk through this.

323
00:17:36.480 --> 00:17:39.279
So he see footprints, and footprints were two feet two

324
00:17:39.319 --> 00:17:43.400
feet long, and he said, just got me. I said,

325
00:17:43.400 --> 00:17:44.759
I don't know what those are. Then we came across

326
00:17:44.759 --> 00:17:47.640
the spot, started fishing for a little bit, and my neck,

327
00:17:47.720 --> 00:17:49.799
my hair and my neck went up, and his dead too.

328
00:17:49.880 --> 00:17:53.839
And then my dog starts like whining, and he said, yea,

329
00:17:53.880 --> 00:17:55.279
we got to get out of here or something in here,

330
00:17:55.319 --> 00:17:57.119
because there's on the back of that lake. There's a

331
00:17:57.119 --> 00:17:59.200
big cave up there. You can see it in the trees.

332
00:18:00.799 --> 00:18:03.440
And so we start. We walked around the lake, start fishing.

333
00:18:04.000 --> 00:18:08.599
There's boulders stacked up there, rocks there are three three

334
00:18:08.640 --> 00:18:11.599
to four feet around. They're stacked up ten feet tall.

335
00:18:11.960 --> 00:18:15.319
No equipment can get up there. Then my buddy said,

336
00:18:15.359 --> 00:18:18.680
how is that? How does something do that? And then

337
00:18:18.720 --> 00:18:20.799
he's then we were figuring out. I, oh, it's gotta

338
00:18:20.839 --> 00:18:24.640
be bigfoot. No no person can move those rocks like that.

339
00:18:25.960 --> 00:18:30.279
They're stacked up through the wall. There's like it's about

340
00:18:30.680 --> 00:18:35.799
ten feet long, about six feet tall, perfectly stacked rocks

341
00:18:36.720 --> 00:18:39.400
about four feet four to three to four feet around

342
00:18:39.400 --> 00:18:40.319
the diameter.

343
00:18:40.240 --> 00:18:41.240
Perfectly stacked.

344
00:18:42.720 --> 00:18:44.200
And we're just sitting there fishing for a while and

345
00:18:44.200 --> 00:18:47.400
then night it was about noon, so he said, we

346
00:18:47.440 --> 00:18:48.960
got to get out of here because we I mean,

347
00:18:49.200 --> 00:18:53.559
we didn't hear anything. But then the birds stopped, everything stopped,

348
00:18:53.559 --> 00:18:55.359
and we heard a big branch break from the inside

349
00:18:55.359 --> 00:18:59.319
the lake. And then my dogs started whining. And we

350
00:18:59.359 --> 00:19:02.279
got out of there, walking down and we ran into

351
00:19:02.359 --> 00:19:04.400
three bears ten feet away. And he said, there's no

352
00:19:04.440 --> 00:19:09.000
way there was a bear up there. So I don't

353
00:19:09.000 --> 00:19:10.519
know what that was up here. I said, I'm never

354
00:19:10.559 --> 00:19:11.359
going to look again.

355
00:19:15.039 --> 00:19:18.119
Wow. That is Wow. Did that lake have a name?

356
00:19:18.200 --> 00:19:18.839
That you were at?

357
00:19:21.079 --> 00:19:28.799
Garnet Lake by Oak Lake? It's behind Oak Lake, It's it's.

358
00:19:28.680 --> 00:19:40.839
A walk, gotcha? Interesting? Interesting? So you have the two

359
00:19:40.920 --> 00:19:46.240
thousand and six, two thousand and eight, and twenty twenty four,

360
00:19:46.319 --> 00:19:49.519
So at three different times that you've had sighting that sightings,

361
00:19:49.559 --> 00:19:50.359
that's incredible.

362
00:19:51.440 --> 00:19:55.000
And then I had another sighting in let's think, what

363
00:19:55.119 --> 00:19:59.960
was it, two thousand and eighteen around there somewhere on there.

364
00:20:01.319 --> 00:20:02.960
That one was up French Creek Road.

365
00:20:04.400 --> 00:20:06.440
Because my dad's my dad's seen one up there too,

366
00:20:06.680 --> 00:20:09.559
And we were out there driving around and we stopped

367
00:20:09.559 --> 00:20:12.799
for a little bit and that's when we seen seeing

368
00:20:12.839 --> 00:20:14.720
a flash of something. It was no, it was no

369
00:20:14.799 --> 00:20:23.319
better because it was on two legs running. But my

370
00:20:23.440 --> 00:20:24.680
dad went up there when he was a kid and

371
00:20:24.680 --> 00:20:30.759
seen a white one all white. Oh really wow, Yeah,

372
00:20:30.799 --> 00:20:33.559
he said he's never never seen anything like that before.

373
00:20:34.240 --> 00:20:35.599
But the one we saw up there was just we

374
00:20:35.720 --> 00:20:38.400
just seen a something ran across the road on two

375
00:20:38.480 --> 00:20:42.680
legs and there's a cliff alongside, and we got out

376
00:20:42.680 --> 00:20:45.079
and looked it straight off that there was I don't

377
00:20:45.079 --> 00:20:51.279
know where went it either jumped off that or jumped

378
00:20:51.279 --> 00:20:54.519
off and underneath the road or something. I have no idea,

379
00:20:55.599 --> 00:20:56.519
but that one we've seen.

380
00:20:56.559 --> 00:20:57.039
That one up there.

381
00:20:57.319 --> 00:21:02.400
We stopped and he's like a bad smell too. There's

382
00:21:02.440 --> 00:21:04.319
like rotten, really rotten. Whatever they are.

383
00:21:07.240 --> 00:21:11.519
It looks like a French creek road. Is you you

384
00:21:11.559 --> 00:21:14.799
hop onto it down by Detroit Lake. But how far

385
00:21:14.960 --> 00:21:18.119
up did you have to go up before you had

386
00:21:18.160 --> 00:21:18.799
that sighting?

387
00:21:20.279 --> 00:21:20.960
Ten miles?

388
00:21:21.200 --> 00:21:24.680
Oh wow? Okay, about ten ten eleven miles?

389
00:21:25.119 --> 00:21:32.680
Yeah, And then last sighting is not a big foot

390
00:21:32.680 --> 00:21:36.279
at all. So like, there's a couple of people in

391
00:21:36.279 --> 00:21:42.480
Detroit that I've seen. It might start with that one.

392
00:21:42.720 --> 00:21:45.759
Yes, absolutely so. And for context for me, just because

393
00:21:45.759 --> 00:21:48.960
I haven't been to this area, so I know about

394
00:21:48.960 --> 00:21:52.480
Detroit Lake, but there's also a small town of Detroit

395
00:21:52.519 --> 00:21:56.839
in this area as well. You're saying, yes, okay, how

396
00:21:56.880 --> 00:21:58.400
many people roughly.

397
00:22:00.079 --> 00:22:04.480
All right? Now, Well, people that live there is probably

398
00:22:05.559 --> 00:22:09.759
two okay, maybe one hundred now, but they're all moving

399
00:22:09.759 --> 00:22:10.720
out because the town burnt.

400
00:22:10.759 --> 00:22:11.759
Whole town burned.

401
00:22:13.519 --> 00:22:17.200
All the restaurants or one restaurant, all the all the

402
00:22:17.240 --> 00:22:22.519
restaurants burnt, and then one store made it.

403
00:22:21.079 --> 00:22:24.920
Is that the Mountain High grocery store. Yep, Mountain High

404
00:22:24.920 --> 00:22:27.839
made it. Wow, so only the town has only one

405
00:22:27.920 --> 00:22:30.000
thing left. That's wild.

406
00:22:30.319 --> 00:22:32.720
Well, now they have a food cart there and everything.

407
00:22:32.839 --> 00:22:36.359
Oh okay, there's all new houses already, big houses built,

408
00:22:36.400 --> 00:22:45.240
Bob like Roughs summers. Probably a thousand people live up there.

409
00:22:46.079 --> 00:22:50.839
Oh wow, so normal it's two hundred tourist. Tourist time

410
00:22:50.920 --> 00:22:56.279
goes up to a thousand. That is wild thousand. Yeah,

411
00:22:56.319 --> 00:22:59.240
my goodness. So yeah, feel free to to share what

412
00:22:59.240 --> 00:23:02.359
what people are seeing and this this talent to Detroit.

413
00:23:03.400 --> 00:23:06.079
Well, I saw it. I saw it, my friend saw it,

414
00:23:06.119 --> 00:23:10.160
and then two people around Detroit saw it, and they

415
00:23:10.200 --> 00:23:12.400
won't even they won't even say anything about it. It's

416
00:23:12.400 --> 00:23:15.480
scared him so bad. It scared me really bad. I

417
00:23:15.519 --> 00:23:19.519
don't walk around at night anymore, never again. So me

418
00:23:19.519 --> 00:23:21.319
and my friend were walking down the street with some

419
00:23:21.400 --> 00:23:25.000
other people with my uncle and they're looking down my

420
00:23:25.799 --> 00:23:28.039
next to my uncle's garb scanner or something standing on

421
00:23:29.480 --> 00:23:31.920
standing on four legs and had his head in the

422
00:23:31.960 --> 00:23:34.839
garbage scan with the garbage scans up stuck to your waist,

423
00:23:35.519 --> 00:23:38.480
the lower waist, and he said, that's a wolf. It

424
00:23:38.640 --> 00:23:42.039
was like, I've never seen anything like that. But soon

425
00:23:42.119 --> 00:23:44.880
as I seeing it, it stood up on two legs

426
00:23:46.000 --> 00:23:48.759
and my friend said, what is that. I don't know

427
00:23:48.880 --> 00:23:52.039
that in it. So you're just standing there looking at it,

428
00:23:52.079 --> 00:23:55.799
and it started walking towards us, so we started walking

429
00:23:55.839 --> 00:23:58.680
away from it. But we thought it was a whereof

430
00:23:58.720 --> 00:24:03.799
it had a been dog man. So we noticed on

431
00:24:03.839 --> 00:24:05.680
now when they had like a like a dog head

432
00:24:05.680 --> 00:24:11.920
on it and really like his eyes were like it

433
00:24:12.039 --> 00:24:14.640
looked mean drill dripping out of his mouth. Saw the

434
00:24:14.680 --> 00:24:18.720
drill dripping on his mouth. And then he had like

435
00:24:19.279 --> 00:24:22.240
we've seen the arms, had finger fingers, three fingers on

436
00:24:22.400 --> 00:24:28.799
his hand. Never seen anything like that. And then it

437
00:24:28.799 --> 00:24:30.799
started walking towards the other way, and then it reached

438
00:24:30.799 --> 00:24:34.559
out as how I've never even heard an animal howl

439
00:24:34.559 --> 00:24:39.799
aft that before, and it took off running. But I

440
00:24:39.799 --> 00:24:41.359
don't know, I've never I don't know what that is.

441
00:24:41.960 --> 00:24:44.039
Everybody says a wolf that got his front feet cut

442
00:24:44.039 --> 00:24:44.319
off us.

443
00:24:45.039 --> 00:24:47.200
There's no way it's an animal. Is that tall?

444
00:24:47.440 --> 00:24:49.079
It's like eight ten feet tall?

445
00:24:50.240 --> 00:24:52.319
Oh wow, Oh my goodness.

446
00:24:53.160 --> 00:24:56.720
I don't know what that is. Because we were up

447
00:24:56.839 --> 00:24:59.039
last year, were up last year. There's a hill in

448
00:24:59.119 --> 00:25:02.599
d Trick called the take a Lookout Hill. You'll see

449
00:25:02.599 --> 00:25:04.240
it from Detroit when you ever go up there, but

450
00:25:04.680 --> 00:25:06.279
you have to last you are cutting trees. And we

451
00:25:06.359 --> 00:25:09.759
heard a how out there twice. Got out of there.

452
00:25:10.720 --> 00:25:14.640
But every every summer I'm in Dietrich, right after fire's cloth,

453
00:25:15.279 --> 00:25:18.799
that thing hows, so it made it through the fires,

454
00:25:19.000 --> 00:25:22.279
but it howls. Either it right after the fireworks or

455
00:25:22.519 --> 00:25:29.359
early early morning. I don't know what it is. And

456
00:25:29.440 --> 00:25:32.680
unless it's somebody turned it into one at night on

457
00:25:32.759 --> 00:25:35.319
certain types of the year, I don't know what it is.

458
00:25:36.039 --> 00:25:38.599
My uncle's seen it twice and he said he's never

459
00:25:38.599 --> 00:25:39.759
seen anything like that before.

460
00:25:42.640 --> 00:25:44.839
And you're seeing other people in the town have seen

461
00:25:44.880 --> 00:25:47.319
this as well. Yeah, my uncle's seeing it.

462
00:25:47.680 --> 00:25:49.440
There's a couple of locals that've seen it, and the

463
00:25:50.400 --> 00:25:52.880
people live up on the hill where that where it

464
00:25:52.920 --> 00:25:56.160
goes up there that I've heard the howls at it.

465
00:25:56.160 --> 00:26:04.240
It's worse like a wolf that's really long. What you saw?

466
00:26:04.640 --> 00:26:07.720
Did it have a man's body or a wolf's body

467
00:26:07.759 --> 00:26:09.559
as well? Man's body?

468
00:26:09.559 --> 00:26:13.319
It looked like a man's body really just ripped though.

469
00:26:14.240 --> 00:26:17.319
Oh boy, like a bodybler, bodybuilder, just like you can

470
00:26:17.359 --> 00:26:21.279
see the muscles in his legs, his arms and three

471
00:26:21.319 --> 00:26:23.240
fingers of that. That's all I remember. It has three

472
00:26:23.359 --> 00:26:26.279
three fingers, like his fingers came out of his hands.

473
00:26:26.359 --> 00:26:31.119
Three fingers, Okay. His feet were huge though, So I

474
00:26:31.160 --> 00:26:34.640
don't think it. I don't think it runs on four legs.

475
00:26:34.680 --> 00:26:38.160
I think it runs on two legs. But I don't

476
00:26:38.200 --> 00:26:39.880
know what it eats up there. But there's no There

477
00:26:39.920 --> 00:26:42.039
hasn't been any deer around town for a long time.

478
00:26:47.079 --> 00:26:49.160
Just for my notes, what what year was this that

479
00:26:49.200 --> 00:26:51.519
you had the sighting of the dog man?

480
00:26:51.759 --> 00:26:57.200
Two eighteen eighteen or seventeen something around there?

481
00:26:59.720 --> 00:27:02.200
Do you think a lot of people are are having

482
00:27:02.319 --> 00:27:04.640
sightings of things in this Detroit area.

483
00:27:05.680 --> 00:27:07.119
Yeah, they're not talking about it.

484
00:27:07.400 --> 00:27:09.799
Why do you think they're not talking about it? There's

485
00:27:09.839 --> 00:27:10.599
nobody believes it.

486
00:27:10.880 --> 00:27:12.920
Nobody believed that. I told a bunch of people that

487
00:27:12.960 --> 00:27:14.960
I work with, and they said, told that don't exist.

488
00:27:15.640 --> 00:27:17.279
I said, yeah it does. There's stuff that thes was

489
00:27:17.279 --> 00:27:21.480
that you guys have never seen before. I'm in the

490
00:27:21.480 --> 00:27:26.559
woods every weekend. Are you out fishing in the woods

491
00:27:26.559 --> 00:27:33.559
somewhere or out mush picking of mushy picking or anything

492
00:27:33.599 --> 00:27:33.839
like that.

493
00:27:33.880 --> 00:27:39.759
But I'm only way out in the woods, have you,

494
00:27:41.920 --> 00:27:44.319
I'm just just off to the side. Have you heard

495
00:27:44.359 --> 00:27:49.599

496
00:27:49.640 --> 00:27:52.039

497
00:27:52.319 --> 00:27:52.599
Yep?

00:27:59.319 --> 00:28:02.880
H I haven't seen anything. Now. I don't spend that

501
00:28:02.920 --> 00:28:05.480
much time most of my time around Detrich area.

502
00:28:05.839 --> 00:28:09.599
Gotcha. Do you remember any details of what was of

503
00:28:09.640 --> 00:28:10.640
what happened down there?

504
00:28:12.240 --> 00:28:12.519
Nope?

505
00:28:12.519 --> 00:28:17.279
But or so Lake Nope, Okay, no problem, no problem.

506
00:28:17.319 --> 00:28:21.680
Anything in like es Takada or Malala.

507
00:28:21.160 --> 00:28:21.759
Or or.

508
00:28:23.440 --> 00:28:25.400
Colton. Nope.

509
00:28:25.440 --> 00:28:28.599
It's heard about people seeing them out there. I've heard

510
00:28:28.599 --> 00:28:32.200
people seeing uh dog man in Scio.

511
00:28:33.759 --> 00:28:36.400
SiOH Organ Okay, Wow, Yeah.

512
00:28:36.240 --> 00:28:38.920
I've heard people seeing it over there, and then I

513
00:28:39.039 --> 00:28:41.160
talked to people in the city. They seem they've said

514
00:28:41.160 --> 00:28:46.839
they've seen some weird like either whereof or or dog

515
00:28:46.880 --> 00:28:49.000
man in Mill City area. That's where I live at

516
00:28:49.079 --> 00:28:56.400
currently now. But I have seen I went out to

517
00:28:56.440 --> 00:28:58.720
Potty Island because I've heard that one show about that

518
00:28:58.759 --> 00:29:01.680
guy talking on Potty Island and Detroit. Detroit Island.

519
00:29:01.759 --> 00:29:04.119
Absolutely, yeah, I've been out there before.

520
00:29:04.240 --> 00:29:06.440
My hair went up my neck. I heard stuff breaking.

521
00:29:08.079 --> 00:29:10.119
I've never seen a bear out there. I've seen a

522
00:29:10.119 --> 00:29:13.640
lot of deer, a dog. He heard that man freaking

523
00:29:13.839 --> 00:29:16.920
right between the legs. Really, that was almost near the

524
00:29:17.119 --> 00:29:21.000
near the top. I don't know what's out there, Buddy said,

525
00:29:21.000 --> 00:29:23.519
there's kind of something that was uh.

526
00:29:23.839 --> 00:29:26.039
What was that not last year year before that.

527
00:29:27.599 --> 00:29:31.960
One. But yeah, I've heard sticks break it up there.

528
00:29:33.119 --> 00:29:36.039
I used to camp up there, but I'm not camp

529
00:29:36.119 --> 00:29:40.440
up there anymore. I was out there that year picking

530
00:29:40.440 --> 00:29:42.960
motions out there and heard stuff breaking. God, I thought

531
00:29:42.960 --> 00:29:43.519
it was a deer.

532
00:29:43.720 --> 00:29:45.880
But my dog usually he sniffed the air.

533
00:29:46.400 --> 00:29:48.480
He was stiffs the deer when the deer comes around.

534
00:29:49.480 --> 00:29:51.599
So this time he sniff sniffed in the air and

535
00:29:51.640 --> 00:29:56.839
he bolted back down to me. M hmm. I started

536
00:29:56.839 --> 00:29:59.119
smelling his weird. I smelt something dead, so I thought

537
00:29:59.119 --> 00:30:01.480
it was a dead deer someone. But now I think

538
00:30:01.519 --> 00:30:03.200
about it, I don't think it was. I don't think

539
00:30:03.200 --> 00:30:06.920
it was a dead deer. I smelled that same smell before.

540
00:30:09.799 --> 00:30:12.079
How hard is it to get out to that island?

541
00:30:13.599 --> 00:30:16.039
Got to walk when the lake's down or take a

542
00:30:16.039 --> 00:30:16.599
boat out there?

543
00:30:16.799 --> 00:30:20.799
Oh okay, okay, gotcha? So that the lake levels will

544
00:30:21.119 --> 00:30:23.920
go down or rise certain times a year.

545
00:30:24.160 --> 00:30:27.559
Yeah, yeah, So the lake right now it's almost full,

546
00:30:27.599 --> 00:30:29.400
so you can't get out there, but the lake will

547
00:30:29.440 --> 00:30:34.279
go down in August September they'll be down. So people

548
00:30:34.359 --> 00:30:38.160
usually walk out there. So I don't know what lives

549
00:30:38.160 --> 00:30:40.279
out there, but it's something or something on that. But

550
00:30:40.559 --> 00:30:43.920
the island's not very big. It's only what does it take.

551
00:30:44.200 --> 00:30:46.400
It takes about half hour to get the top. Twenty

552
00:30:46.440 --> 00:30:50.519
minutes by walking you get the top, so it's not

553
00:30:50.640 --> 00:30:52.640
very big. And then if you want to walk around it,

554
00:30:52.640 --> 00:30:54.640
it's like we usually do, and the lake goes down,

555
00:30:54.720 --> 00:30:57.279
you walk around it and it takes about four hours

556
00:30:57.720 --> 00:31:01.160
walk around the whole thing. It was not very big.

557
00:31:01.680 --> 00:31:05.640
Yeah, yeah, oh man, so there's a you're saying there's

558
00:31:05.680 --> 00:31:10.960
a hill to climb up on this island. Yeah yeah, okay, Mmmm,

559
00:31:13.400 --> 00:31:16.759
that's very interesting. Just I mean, not a lot of area,

560
00:31:16.920 --> 00:31:19.799
but maybe just enough for something to hide.

561
00:31:19.599 --> 00:31:21.640
Out, for something something to hide out.

562
00:31:21.720 --> 00:31:26.519
Yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely. Man. Have you ever talked to

563
00:31:26.880 --> 00:31:29.680
any other rangers at the Detroit Ranger Station before?

564
00:31:30.839 --> 00:31:33.200
Well, my friend that worked there said they used to

565
00:31:33.240 --> 00:31:35.880
have a guy employed that was looking for bigfoot the

566
00:31:36.000 --> 00:31:39.000
entire time. He never saw that, he saw tracks, okay,

567
00:31:39.039 --> 00:31:43.279
but he never never saw anything. And then I talked

568
00:31:43.319 --> 00:31:46.720
to one guy out there and I told him I've

569
00:31:46.720 --> 00:31:49.279
seen stuff. He said, I've seen I've seen a couple.

570
00:31:49.920 --> 00:31:52.160
They won't talk about it. Nobody talks about it.

571
00:31:52.759 --> 00:31:55.559
Oh, at the Ranger station, they actually had that conversation

572
00:31:55.640 --> 00:31:58.279
off record with you. Yeah, wow, a little bit.

573
00:31:58.400 --> 00:32:02.039
Yeah. But I know I know this before because if

574
00:32:02.079 --> 00:32:03.759
I bring a gun with me, I won't see anything.

575
00:32:04.559 --> 00:32:07.920
If I don't bring a gun, I see stuff. I

576
00:32:07.920 --> 00:32:10.359
don't know if they can sense, right, I think they

577
00:32:10.359 --> 00:32:15.000
can sense that. They Usually I pack a gun on

578
00:32:15.000 --> 00:32:18.000
my side when I'm out mushroom picking case Cason Bear

579
00:32:18.079 --> 00:32:22.039
comes towards me. But every time I don't have a gun.

580
00:32:22.160 --> 00:32:26.039
I something. I either hear something or my dog gets

581
00:32:26.039 --> 00:32:30.200
truly scared. So I don't know what's what's out there.

582
00:32:30.240 --> 00:32:31.400
I don't know how they can sense that.

583
00:32:32.400 --> 00:32:38.119
Mmm uh what kind of mushrooms are you guys looking

584
00:32:38.119 --> 00:32:43.000
for out there? Drills? Chantras, tan drills. Yeah, gotcha, very interesting.

585
00:32:43.079 --> 00:32:45.480
I didn't know if you had. Jeb Morrel's out there

586
00:32:45.519 --> 00:32:45.839
as well.

587
00:32:47.279 --> 00:32:49.599
Yeah, just started looking for them yesterday.

588
00:32:49.720 --> 00:32:52.079
Yeah. Those are big in Iowa. Yeah.

589
00:32:52.119 --> 00:32:52.960
Yeah, that's what I hurt.

590
00:32:53.599 --> 00:32:54.839
They get they get massive.

591
00:32:56.240 --> 00:32:56.559
Yeah.

592
00:32:56.640 --> 00:32:58.240
Yeah. We go out every once in a while and

593
00:32:58.839 --> 00:33:00.680
you can find I mean, you know how it is.

594
00:33:00.720 --> 00:33:03.920
You find your your huge patches and then you you're

595
00:33:04.039 --> 00:33:09.319
very careful not to tell anyone, oh I know, yeah, yeah,

596
00:33:09.400 --> 00:33:13.960
yeah absolutely, Man. What just it's such a wild area.

597
00:33:14.119 --> 00:33:18.000
I mean there's so many people having sightings and as

598
00:33:18.039 --> 00:33:20.359
you said, uh not a lot of people are talking

599
00:33:20.359 --> 00:33:25.119
about it. But do you think, uh, man, I bet

600
00:33:25.160 --> 00:33:30.319
your your forest service friend, retired for service friend has

601
00:33:30.359 --> 00:33:34.720
some has some interesting stories. Do you think he would

602
00:33:34.720 --> 00:33:37.759
ever be interested in talking about what he experienced?

603
00:33:39.000 --> 00:33:40.599
Yeah? I talked to him today a little bit. He

604
00:33:40.960 --> 00:33:45.200
wanted me to mention stuff that he saw. One it's

605
00:33:45.200 --> 00:33:49.880
called uh gold Hill Road, Gold Hill Mountain, Gold Hill

606
00:33:49.880 --> 00:33:52.480
Mountains up by Oak Lake, and he was on a

607
00:33:52.559 --> 00:33:56.839
fire up there after the eighties. They came in. He

608
00:33:56.839 --> 00:33:59.599
came across that cave and he said, there was this

609
00:33:59.839 --> 00:34:05.240
weird hay, weird hair and smell coming out of the cave.

610
00:34:05.319 --> 00:34:07.079
And he walked back a little bit and they heard

611
00:34:07.079 --> 00:34:09.760
a growl and he said, we're on a fire. So

612
00:34:09.800 --> 00:34:11.840
we had nowhere to go, so we ran out of there.

613
00:34:12.639 --> 00:34:16.159
And then they had they can't they can't do half

614
00:34:16.159 --> 00:34:16.599
my way.

615
00:34:16.599 --> 00:34:23.440
Had rocks thrown out of all night, big rocks. Oh man,

616
00:34:23.599 --> 00:34:28.119
that's that's that's gold gold Butte, Gold Butte lookout.

617
00:34:29.280 --> 00:34:30.599
But he said, I don't know if he could ever

618
00:34:30.599 --> 00:34:32.360
find that cave again because they got dropped off the

619
00:34:32.400 --> 00:34:36.519
helicopter to fight a little fire down in there. But

620
00:34:36.679 --> 00:34:39.840
he he said, I've never seen anything like that. I've

621
00:34:39.840 --> 00:34:41.000
never had rocks thrown up before.

622
00:34:41.079 --> 00:34:47.559
Said what I have, h that's pretty cool. So there

623
00:34:47.639 --> 00:34:50.440
is a fire is a fire tower up there.

624
00:34:51.280 --> 00:34:55.400
Yep, Okay, I want to try renting it out this year.

625
00:34:55.400 --> 00:34:57.719
It's one like seven dollars one hundred dollars a night,

626
00:34:57.760 --> 00:34:58.880
but it's it's booked.

627
00:34:58.679 --> 00:35:03.559
Up for seven year, out for seven years. Yeah, oh

628
00:35:03.639 --> 00:35:07.360
my goodness, you gotta get on the list then. Wow, yeah,

629
00:35:07.599 --> 00:35:10.440
that would be quite a night. Yeah.

630
00:35:10.559 --> 00:35:12.880
I've heard a bunch of people having sidings up by

631
00:35:12.880 --> 00:35:16.320
Oak Lake up there to a Brighton.

632
00:35:16.000 --> 00:35:26.880
Bush Elk Lake. Let me take a look here. I'll

633
00:35:26.920 --> 00:35:30.000
have to look more into that. So that is up

634
00:35:30.039 --> 00:35:33.119
in the bright Bush area. Yep, yep, okay.

635
00:35:33.159 --> 00:35:35.039
I tried getting there last week and could just do it.

636
00:35:35.119 --> 00:35:40.199
So have you ever heard anything around Bagbee Hot Springs?

637
00:35:41.760 --> 00:35:45.360
Uh? Yeah, I have, I have or some I was

638
00:35:45.360 --> 00:35:47.280
talking to somebody as they saw I was stumping up there.

639
00:35:48.760 --> 00:35:50.679
They thought it was they got out of Hot Springs

640
00:35:50.679 --> 00:35:53.840
and ran in the woods.

641
00:35:55.440 --> 00:35:57.400
Yeah, it's it's a it's a webed area. I've had

642
00:35:57.440 --> 00:36:01.679
a few people tell me they've experienced some really strange things, uh,

643
00:36:01.960 --> 00:36:04.400
in that area of the Hot Springs.

644
00:36:05.000 --> 00:36:08.239
Yeah. And it's like some time about driving, like I

645
00:36:08.239 --> 00:36:09.519
have cameras up in the road.

646
00:36:10.599 --> 00:36:12.159
It's up where I have much.

647
00:36:12.079 --> 00:36:13.440
Cameras up there and get a bunch of bears on

648
00:36:13.440 --> 00:36:16.159
my cameras and deer. I was driving the last year

649
00:36:16.199 --> 00:36:18.880
and it's coming out around and I smelled this weird

650
00:36:19.000 --> 00:36:20.119
skunk type thing.

651
00:36:20.960 --> 00:36:22.159
There's no skunks up that.

652
00:36:22.199 --> 00:36:25.599
I was at four thousand feet and then my dog

653
00:36:25.719 --> 00:36:28.400
was he's looking out the window on my side by side.

654
00:36:28.760 --> 00:36:31.960
He got right on the floorboard. He's never done that before.

655
00:36:33.039 --> 00:36:34.920
And then that day, that was last year, that day

656
00:36:34.920 --> 00:36:37.360
there was as soon as he smelled, I stopped and

657
00:36:37.440 --> 00:36:39.039
see what that was? I thought it was. It was

658
00:36:39.039 --> 00:36:40.440
so bad. I had to cover my nose. I've never

659
00:36:40.480 --> 00:36:42.840
smelt some of that worse. It's like a skunk, but

660
00:36:43.360 --> 00:36:48.480
ten times worse than a skunk. And that time, no birds, nothing.

661
00:36:49.000 --> 00:36:51.920
I stopped springing the tie us off. Not even sound,

662
00:36:52.920 --> 00:36:54.679
but the bad odor. I had to cover my nose.

663
00:36:54.719 --> 00:36:58.599
I couldn't, I couldn't take it. There was only one

664
00:36:58.639 --> 00:37:00.360
time I went back up there next day nothing.

665
00:37:00.760 --> 00:37:06.639
M Do you have any any thoughts about why there's

666
00:37:06.679 --> 00:37:10.920
so much activity in this area of Detroit and in

667
00:37:11.039 --> 00:37:12.880
Bright Bush.

668
00:37:13.039 --> 00:37:15.159
Well, I think it's because all uh, there's a lot

669
00:37:15.199 --> 00:37:19.719
of hulckleberry bushes everywhere. There's a lot of wildlife up there,

670
00:37:21.199 --> 00:37:23.519
a lot of deer up pie, a lot of bears,

671
00:37:24.880 --> 00:37:29.840
a lot of rabbits, grouse, there's a lot. Yeah, there's

672
00:37:29.840 --> 00:37:31.880
a lot of I think there's a lot of there's

673
00:37:31.920 --> 00:37:34.719
a lot of grass growing and a lot of berries everywhere.

674
00:37:38.039 --> 00:37:44.760
That makes uh, that makes perfect sense. Yeah, perfect environment. Uh,

675
00:37:45.360 --> 00:37:49.360
lots of resources, a lot of water. Have you ever

676
00:37:49.400 --> 00:37:53.159
been to Ripple Brook before? Yeah, I'll go through it

677
00:37:54.280 --> 00:37:58.119
because that's actually so you've you've driven through. Have you

678
00:37:58.119 --> 00:38:01.960
talked to the rangers there? Yeah? Nope, okay, gotcha.

679
00:38:03.840 --> 00:38:07.320
Weird only I only see that. I only see big

680
00:38:07.360 --> 00:38:14.800
foot activity though from July, uh October. Okay, I don't

681
00:38:14.840 --> 00:38:16.239
know if they're moving through the area.

682
00:38:16.679 --> 00:38:17.679
We're migrating through here.

683
00:38:18.039 --> 00:38:19.599
I don't think they're up here in the snow in

684
00:38:19.679 --> 00:38:20.800
winter times.

685
00:38:21.880 --> 00:38:25.480
Hm hmm. It's it's one of those questions. It's like,

686
00:38:25.559 --> 00:38:27.880
you know, do they is there some kind of hibernation

687
00:38:28.039 --> 00:38:30.239
going on? Maybe they go somewhere else, you know who.

688
00:38:30.559 --> 00:38:32.159
We just don't know yet, right.

689
00:38:33.360 --> 00:38:34.119
Nope, I don't know.

690
00:38:34.199 --> 00:38:35.719
Yeah, but no idea where you go?

691
00:38:36.960 --> 00:38:39.599
I did, like I went up last weeking this wood knops,

692
00:38:39.599 --> 00:38:42.840
got nothing, nothing back. I just went up French crick

693
00:38:42.960 --> 00:38:47.199
always did that, gotcha. There's big mountains up there and stuff.

694
00:38:47.440 --> 00:38:51.239
Nobody goes up there picked up wood knops, not a

695
00:38:51.280 --> 00:38:51.800
single thing.

696
00:38:56.519 --> 00:38:59.599
So it's a it's a pretty uh. I mean when

697
00:38:59.599 --> 00:39:03.239
you got there, it's just you. There's no other hunters or.

698
00:39:04.159 --> 00:39:06.800
I've never seen any. But nope, Well one of my

699
00:39:06.880 --> 00:39:09.559
go where my cameras are, take myself by others. Nobody

700
00:39:09.639 --> 00:39:14.119
up there. That's it's there's a couple of spots straight off.

701
00:39:14.159 --> 00:39:18.800
It's a thousand feet down that. There's a lot of

702
00:39:18.840 --> 00:39:23.800
activity up there, but I think there's up and spend

703
00:39:23.840 --> 00:39:25.960
the night up there by myself. No, I'm not bring

704
00:39:25.960 --> 00:39:26.519
a friend with me.

705
00:39:29.159 --> 00:39:33.639
So have you heard of You've heard of activity happening

706
00:39:33.719 --> 00:39:35.559
up in that area from other people as well?

707
00:39:36.360 --> 00:39:38.599
Yeah, oh yeah. A lot of the people.

708
00:39:38.440 --> 00:39:41.440
Live in live in Detroit, got it.

709
00:39:41.480 --> 00:39:43.280
So one guy I talked to you, he will never

710
00:39:43.360 --> 00:39:45.800
go in the woods again after he saw one. He

711
00:39:45.920 --> 00:39:49.199
saw one five feet from him when he's something.

712
00:39:49.320 --> 00:39:51.320
Oh my goodness, five feet away.

713
00:39:51.840 --> 00:39:54.840
Five feet away. It was crowds excused walk through the

714
00:39:54.840 --> 00:39:58.760
woods and the single crowd show behind a log. And

715
00:39:58.800 --> 00:40:01.119
then when he got as well, the things jumped up.

716
00:40:02.840 --> 00:40:07.039
He's I've never he quit. He didn't think these things

717
00:40:07.039 --> 00:40:09.840
were up here. Man.

718
00:40:09.880 --> 00:40:13.719
He learned that day for sure. Wow, yeah, yeah, I

719
00:40:13.760 --> 00:40:16.719
can't imagine, like my mind, he just cannot comprehend that.

720
00:40:17.000 --> 00:40:20.119
Do you still talk to this guy? Yeah, a little bit.

721
00:40:20.480 --> 00:40:22.840
Wow, he won't. He won't say nothing about he won't

722
00:40:22.840 --> 00:40:23.960
say nothing about it. Yeah.

723
00:40:23.960 --> 00:40:28.639
Absolutely, No, I don't blame him, but wow, that's just

724
00:40:28.800 --> 00:40:30.119
that's an incredible account.

725
00:40:31.199 --> 00:40:32.119
Yeah.

726
00:40:32.199 --> 00:40:35.519
So you're saying most of the individuals from Detroit are

727
00:40:35.559 --> 00:40:39.760
having things happen up on this French Creek Road.

728
00:40:40.360 --> 00:40:43.960
French French Creek and Brighton Bush makes sense. And then

729
00:40:44.519 --> 00:40:47.360
and then I think I'm trying to get a picture.

730
00:40:47.639 --> 00:40:50.679
My uncle had a b one on trail camera, but

731
00:40:50.760 --> 00:40:53.199
his house burnt and the fire, and then I think,

732
00:40:53.320 --> 00:40:55.239
I think he has a sim card on him. I'm

733
00:40:55.239 --> 00:40:59.320
gonna talk to his son. I've seen the picture. It's

734
00:40:59.880 --> 00:41:02.760
the it's the actual picture of Bigfoot. And like he

735
00:41:02.840 --> 00:41:04.360
showed a couple of people and they said, well, that's

736
00:41:04.400 --> 00:41:07.119
that's got seat got a suit way up in the

737
00:41:07.159 --> 00:41:07.760
middle of nowhere.

738
00:41:08.760 --> 00:41:11.679
Oh wow, Okay, so you've seen it. Can you describe

739
00:41:11.719 --> 00:41:13.199
what you saw in that picture?

740
00:41:14.440 --> 00:41:17.559
Big black, big, big black one. That the same area

741
00:41:17.639 --> 00:41:20.280
where I had the rocks thrown at me. Okay, because

742
00:41:20.320 --> 00:41:22.239
he put his camera way up in the tree and

743
00:41:22.320 --> 00:41:25.320
had it pointing down and that thing walks right next

744
00:41:25.360 --> 00:41:26.800
to his camera and then he cut a picture and

745
00:41:26.800 --> 00:41:33.519
then he looked up at it. There's big, really big wow.

746
00:41:33.679 --> 00:41:36.960
But he's been he's been up there before, my uncle has.

747
00:41:37.679 --> 00:41:39.280
He won't talk, He don't talk about it at all

748
00:41:39.320 --> 00:41:42.239
because he's annoying people. I believe him stuff because I

749
00:41:42.320 --> 00:41:44.760
say I've seen it, but he's seen him one before.

750
00:41:44.800 --> 00:41:48.239
We're just staying there, well, the back and forth, swaying

751
00:41:48.239 --> 00:41:52.719
his arms, and then he came up to you like

752
00:41:53.880 --> 00:41:58.880
like sticks stacked like logs snapped off and stacked like

753
00:41:58.920 --> 00:42:03.079
a tepe area like broke off. I've seen.

754
00:42:03.119 --> 00:42:06.079
I saw it once last year, after that that lake

755
00:42:06.159 --> 00:42:06.599
we went.

756
00:42:06.480 --> 00:42:12.800
To, perfect twelve twelve inch logs completely snapped and stuck

757
00:42:12.840 --> 00:42:16.400
into a tree. It was like six trees, six of

758
00:42:16.440 --> 00:42:18.880
them all around the tree. And I've never seen that.

759
00:42:18.880 --> 00:42:20.119
There's no way a human can do that.

760
00:42:22.880 --> 00:42:25.880
Oh my goodness. Have you heard of anyone in that

761
00:42:26.000 --> 00:42:31.199
area having just weird things happen, Like let's say they

762
00:42:31.280 --> 00:42:34.400
go out and all of a sudden, like they can't

763
00:42:34.440 --> 00:42:39.280
move or or they're moving, not like they feel like

764
00:42:39.320 --> 00:42:41.719
something else is making them move, anything like that.

765
00:42:43.159 --> 00:42:45.559
Yeah, Yeah, I happ my other friend up there he

766
00:42:46.280 --> 00:42:49.679
saw something and he said, I just like like made

767
00:42:49.679 --> 00:42:51.920
me fall asleep. He fell asleep, and then he woke

768
00:42:51.960 --> 00:42:54.000
back up and said, I don't know what I mean

769
00:42:54.119 --> 00:42:56.320
saw oh man.

770
00:42:56.519 --> 00:42:59.360
So he was just out there in the woods and

771
00:42:59.360 --> 00:43:00.360
it made him go to sleep.

772
00:43:01.440 --> 00:43:06.599
Yeah, I did. So. Last year I was up there.

773
00:43:06.639 --> 00:43:08.559
I forgot tell you this. Last year was up there.

774
00:43:09.599 --> 00:43:15.199
I was up by Cooper's Cooper's Ridge, Thanks Cooper's Ridge.

775
00:43:16.679 --> 00:43:19.880
Oh no, it was Hoover Ridge. After watch a lightning

776
00:43:19.880 --> 00:43:24.760
storm and there's two yellow lights right before the sunset,

777
00:43:25.440 --> 00:43:28.719
right before dark two yellow lights were sitting there hovering.

778
00:43:30.159 --> 00:43:31.920
And my friend was up there too, and he took pictures,

779
00:43:31.920 --> 00:43:35.159
and I took pictures of two They looked like, I

780
00:43:35.199 --> 00:43:36.679
don't know, it's weird. They're just hovering right there in

781
00:43:36.719 --> 00:43:39.320
one spot and then we're just sitting there washing them.

782
00:43:39.320 --> 00:43:43.360
They get vanished. They could completely see these built. That's

783
00:43:43.920 --> 00:43:46.599
it's like weird. I don't know what that is. Everybody

784
00:43:46.639 --> 00:43:48.880
said I was a weather Blowness, there's no way that's

785
00:43:48.880 --> 00:43:50.760
the weather. But maybe two you sitting next great next

786
00:43:50.760 --> 00:43:51.199
to each other.

787
00:43:52.840 --> 00:43:58.559
Yeah, there's no way that's that's that's not it. How

788
00:43:58.760 --> 00:44:01.039
How big a practice did they look.

789
00:44:01.880 --> 00:44:04.760
Well like if you're looking on the sky, they're probably

790
00:44:05.239 --> 00:44:08.920
an inch round. They're like sitting in one spot though

791
00:44:08.960 --> 00:44:11.800
for a long time. And then we took I took

792
00:44:11.840 --> 00:44:13.360
to he took a picture, and I took a picture

793
00:44:13.400 --> 00:44:16.400
and gone like they knew we were there or something.

794
00:44:16.440 --> 00:44:19.559
I don't know what that was. I've seen. I've seen

795
00:44:19.639 --> 00:44:24.719
some lights up in the sky before, red and orange. Ever,

796
00:44:25.039 --> 00:44:27.079
I was a helicopters drune. Why who would be out

797
00:44:27.079 --> 00:44:29.480
in the middle of nowhere with the drone way like

798
00:44:29.519 --> 00:44:34.719
at midnight and it seemed like these three balls circle around.

799
00:44:35.440 --> 00:44:40.519
I don't know what those are. If those people are

800
00:44:40.599 --> 00:44:44.360
up way up there, find a drone room.

801
00:44:46.400 --> 00:44:52.239
Got a few more, few more questions for you, and okay, uh,

802
00:44:52.639 --> 00:44:55.159
just thank you, Jared for everything that you've you've shared

803
00:44:55.280 --> 00:44:59.320
so far. Got a few they're going to be really

804
00:45:00.119 --> 00:45:04.519
at a left field, but just based on stuff I've

805
00:45:04.559 --> 00:45:07.199
heard from other places. So I talked to a lot

806
00:45:07.199 --> 00:45:09.840
of people from down in Oakridge. You haven't heard anything

807
00:45:09.920 --> 00:45:13.559
from down there, right, No, okay, but I've heard some

808
00:45:13.639 --> 00:45:17.079
weird stuff besides Bigfoot out of Oakridge. I'm just curious

809
00:45:17.079 --> 00:45:19.719
if you've heard anything like that out of up in

810
00:45:19.760 --> 00:45:24.159
this area. I've had people that have reported seeing gnomes

811
00:45:24.199 --> 00:45:28.639
in Oakridge and also fairies in Oakridge. Is that anything

812
00:45:28.639 --> 00:45:29.760
that's talked about.

813
00:45:30.880 --> 00:45:34.679
I've heard about that. Really, I haven't seen anything around

814
00:45:34.719 --> 00:45:35.559
Detraury though.

815
00:45:38.400 --> 00:45:41.159
Okay, so you've heard about people seeing fairies.

816
00:45:42.360 --> 00:45:45.679
Yeah. One of my friends, he passed away, but he

817
00:45:45.719 --> 00:45:50.000
saw he saw weird, weird fairy type thing. Every thought

818
00:45:50.000 --> 00:45:53.719
he was piles of them, and he don't lie at all.

819
00:45:53.760 --> 00:45:59.280
He saw it around some are its close to or

820
00:45:59.599 --> 00:46:06.719
as O by Portsville, Corchville or Courtsville, Preak over there.

821
00:46:06.760 --> 00:46:08.159
He saw some weirds things over there.

822
00:46:11.639 --> 00:46:12.079
I don't know.

823
00:46:12.920 --> 00:46:15.599
That's always all about was South area is flying around.

824
00:46:17.599 --> 00:46:19.039
I don't know. I don't know if those are.

825
00:46:19.079 --> 00:46:19.840
I've never seen one.

826
00:46:20.320 --> 00:46:21.840
I'll hope they want to see one pretty soon.

827
00:46:22.480 --> 00:46:26.199
Oh Courtzville, Oh that makes total sense. Yeah, Courseville. That's

another name for Green Pewter Reservoir, right, yeah, yeah, course yeah.

829
00:46:30.320 --> 00:46:33.000
I mean that area is crazy for bigfoot and weird stuff,

830
00:46:33.320 --> 00:46:35.239
so that makes total sense. I mean that's where the

831
00:46:35.280 --> 00:46:38.639
Giant door is. If you've ever heard about that. Oh yeah,

832
