I've taken far too much of your time so far, so let's get on with the show. Hey, welcome back to another episode of Bigfoot Society. I've got some really interesting emails to read to you today and also some comments later. But we're going to start off with a really interesting story that came into the Bigfoot Society email, so let's get right into that. I've got the Bigfoot sidyphone here, just check full emails. So this came in from a gentleman and this individual is sharing a story is something that happened to him as encounter back in nineteen seventy three when he was in high school. So let's get into it. Let me tell you a story. The story took place fifty years ago in nineteen seventy three, when I was a young seventeen years old high school freshman with three main

1:32 priorities in life, girls, fast cars, and the adventure. That was a time before I'd ever heard of Bigfoot or Sasquatch or Skunky. There were no cell phones with or without built in cameras, and there was no Internet, and if something didn't make the nightly news, the only way you would hear about any such creature was on the cover of the tabloids at the grocery store checkout line. And everybody knew those were sensationalized stories with very little truth in them. So as a junior in high school in nineteen seventy three, I had not heard about the Patterson Gimmlin film yet or even seen the legend of Buggy Creek. Suffice it to say I'd never heard of Bigfoot or any other cryptid. I was fairly involved with the youth group of the small Baptist church my parents and I attended, and even saying in a quartet with another boy and two girls, one of them a pastor's daughter whom I happened to really like. We had scheduled a quartet practice at her church on a week night in April of that year. I think that was nineteen seventy three, Spring of my junior year. In Ohio. April follows the old axiom of April showers bring mayflowers. This particular night was full of heavy rain, thunder and lightning, and after the practice, I wanted to After the practice, I wanted to extend the time I spent with the two girls who I was eventually to take home. So I asked if they wanted to do something fun and scary on this warm night. They said it sounded great, and one

3:04 suggested a place known as Carpenter's Road, which was the traditional creepy road. Every town has that creepy lane where the trees on each side create a canopy over the road, and the hookman lives to take the lives of any unsuspecting couples that go to make out. I suggested a new road that I had never been on, but heard about, a road that was about two miles long but was a dead end at the little Miami river. Is that sound familiar? A let me know in the comments if you've heard about that river. Let's see who's first the comment why it's that's cool? Sorry, back to the story, But was a dead end at the Little Miami River, a nationally designated scenic river in southwestern Ohio. From this point, all you could do was turn around in a small spot and retreat the way you had come down. Both the girls thought this sounded pretty cool, so off we went to see this new scary spot on this rain driven night. When we arrived at the turnoff, we headed down the gravel lane about half a mile and the road took a sharp ninety degree turn to the left, right through a farm. It actually looked like the end of the road was right there, and if we went any further would be in the farms driveway. So I looked for a place to turn my car around, and I realized the car or I realized the road actually continued on that ninety degree turn, So we followed it another half mile or so to another ninety degree turn to the right. Now about this time, the rain got even stronger, and the

4:36 lightning strike seemed to come every four to five seconds. I told the girls. The friend that had told me it would be a cool road also said that once you got far enough down the road, you had no choice but to go to the far end, where it stopped just short of the river. The girls had gotten sufficiently scared, and I was even anxious about this unfamiliar one lane road in a driving thunderstorm, so I agreed to try to turn around right where we were. We were right at the ninety degree, turned to the right, and I was driving a seventy one Chevy Nova with three on the tree. If you know what that means, I was born in the eighties. I don't get the reference, but let me know in the comments. I pulled up as far as I could into the turn, and then swung the wheel around and backed up until I actually hit a wooden fence post. Now, at this point I was basically sitting broadside facing the empty fields that would be filled with knee high corn in about two to three months. When I was shifting back into drive, a huge lightning bolt flashed into the direction we were facing. And if that wasn't enough to make us all jump, the sight of what was striding through the field surely was.

5:48 Every time I see the logo for Brian King Sharp Satsquatch Odyssey podcast, Brian's my bud. I'm going to leave it in, dude. It's a great podcast. If you're not subscribed to sasquatch ot check it out all right, backed at it. Every time I see the logo for Brian King Sharp Sasquatch Odyssey podcast, I'm reminded of that night because that is exactly what I was looking, only seventy five to eighty yards directly in front of me. It was only for that brief instant during the flash, but what I saw appeared to be a large man either heading directly away from us or directly toward us, in the middle of this field in the midst of the storm. It was a full body silhouette, so I couldn't tell which way he might have been heading. He was in the middle of this cleared field, so I had nothing at all to Gage's height, only that he was thick. The three of us all gasped and jumped at the site, and I immediately said let's get out of here, and floored the gas pedal and we headed back in the direction from which he had come. Wondering what the heck was wrong with such a crazy person to be out in that kind of weather, in the dark at nine thirty at night. As I said, I'd never heard of bigfoot or sasquatch previously, so this large silhouette we'd seen simply had to be a man. There was no features, There were no features to be seen, just the body shape for an instant, but that was enough to freak us out. A week or so later, I saw the friend that

7:19 had suggested the road to us, and I told him the events that took place. He told me to be extremely careful down there, and I asked why exactly. He had not told me a lot of details of how he knew of the road, and I hadn't asked. But now he admitted that the local motorcycle gang, part of the Dayton Outlaws, which were affiliated with Hell's Angels, had previously used that long dead end road to host some of their parties. In quotation Mark, so you know, take that as it was. He went on to explain that at their last party in the woods by the river, something had attacked them and was throwing bodies around like rag dolls until they all finally escaped. They could only say the thing was like a whirlwind crashing through their group. Well, hearing about that only elevated our curiosity. It would appear that whoever I saw in the storm up the road was probably the same person the bikers had run up against. So we decided to go back to Cook Road soon, but with strength of numbers and with being a little more prepared for this guy should he still be around. Partially because we all enjoyed any kind of adventure, and partially because we thought maybe we had stumbled upon something seriously dangerous and scary, we began making frequent trips

8:54 to Cook Road looking for signs of any kind, usually late at night, of course, to enhance the thrill. One of my best friends we'll call them Greg for privacy's sake, wanted to bring his younger brother in his next door neighbor, So we headed to Cook Road in two cars, Greg and I and my Chevy Nova, and the other two in their Mustang. When we got to the end of Cook Road, we directed them to make their U turn, head back up the hill, and park halfway up with their headlights pointing down toward the creek that ran along about twenty five to thirty feet down that side. Then we did our U turn and pulled in behind them, with our headlights pointed at their Mustang and my tail lights illuminating up the hill on either side of the gravel road. We had established this routine to provide a higher level of safety, especially if we decided to venture away from the cars any distance. And we got out of the cars and hung out for about thirty minutes, I guess describing where we had explored previously to the other two and where I had my first sighting that stormy night. We even ventured up the hill through the woods toward the field a little ways when we all started noticing something fell off. We all noticed it, that feeling of being watched, the hair on, the hair on our necks standing up, even having four this evening instead of just two of us. So we headed back towards our cars and got in and began to leave Cook Road. I

10:24 had purchased a high power flashlight for our trips, and it was the most powerful twelvevolt I had ever seen. Back then, we called it the Beam. Our friends wanted to use it and check out the lower side of the escarpment that we had not explored, and said they wanted to just do a slow climb up the winding gravel road and flood the creek area below with light to check it out. So we just barely rolled along for a few seconds. The next few minutes were the most traumatic I've ever experienced and been through in my life. I was sure I was going to die that night at the hands of some monster. I believe this is a sequence of events. First, we suddenly heard what I initially thought was a tornado siren or air raid siren startup, and it sounded like it was ten feet from us.

11:11 My first thought was a police siren, and I said, it's the cops. Let's get out of here. But before I'd even finished saying that, I could tell it wasn't a siren of any kind, as it just started getting guttural. But it felt like the sound lasted for at least thirty to forty seconds, and it just wouldn't stop then. To make things worse, right after I said let's get one of the guys in the first car that was pointing the beam down toward the creek leaned out the window and yelled to us to get out of here. Now we had no idea what he had seen with the beam or how close it was. But he then pulled out a pistol we didn't even know he had, and started firing it down the hill. The driver, Gregg's brother, floored the Mustang and they tore out of there. And that was the point at which I decided I was going to die. When he tore out, he was throwing up gravel dust everywhere, and we were on a winding stretch of this hill, and I couldn't do anything but sit there, ready to take off as soon as I could see where I was going so as not to drive over the escarpment. The scream just continued on and on, and I now recognize it as very definitely in an Ohio howl, and we were in southwest Ohio. But this is about thirty years or so before Moneymaker heard his howl. It's referring to Matt Moneymaker, the gentleman who first recorded the Ohio howl. Also from finding Bigfoot, just for those who might be new to this. Finally, I just dived into the cloud of dust and we made it through and out the other side and headed toward the beginning of Cook Road. When we got there,

12:45 we were all four scared to death. Teenagers and decided we still weren't safe, so we headed into Bellbrook, which was a few miles away, and pulled up into a well lit parking lot right across from the police station, not caring if anyone asked. That's what we were doing at that time of night. Nothing good happens after midnight. We were determined to solve this mystery, so we decided to explore every inch of the area, both in daylight and at night. Craig and I would go down at least two to three times per week, even during our final year of high school. We would take anyone else with us that wanted to ride along, and we would take all the arms we could come up with being teenagers. I had my father's Remington twelve gauge pump along with his souvenir bayonet from his service in World War Two. I didn't I don't think he ever found out about that, probably meaning that they took his stuff, plus whatever pistols, knives, baseball bats we could come up with. We would usually meet at the nearest Frish's Big Boy around midnight or and whoever was there, that's who we went with.

13:52 You have to remember that this was nineteen seventy four. There may have been some reports out about this bigfootfella, but to a bunch of teenagers in southwest Ohio, those were crazy Hollywood stories out in California a handful of articles published in the National Enquirer. The pictures were either drawings or obvious fakes, and all that stuff had absolutely nothing to do with whatever kind of monster we were dealing with right in our backyard. So far we knew it was human shaped, fairly big. It tossed a bunch of bar brawling bikers around like rag dolls, and it had a roar that would absolutely stop you in your tracks, and we were going to find it and hopefully kill it. As my senior year rolled along, we had no more encounters with the monster. We found no more tracks or signs, and the trips to Cook Road became less frequent. The following spring of nineteen seventy four, right around my graduation, I took a friend on the Cook Road and had my last sighting of him there. And although it was a brief glimpse, it was in broad daylight, and that sighting gave me some validation. My friend had never been there with me, and we did my usual routine of driving to the end, getting turned around and headed back out. If I needed a fast getaway, we'll be back with more Bigfoot society. After these words from our sponsors, we didn't see anything down there, and being frustrated, I decided to head out After only a few minutes of standing around, and as we reached the

15:26 top of the hill and rounded the last curve in the road, Rick asked me to please stop and go back. You wanted to go down into the creek area where we had come so close to death the previous year and wanted to go down. Oh sorry, that's yeah, okay, so close to death the previous year. So when I put my arm on the seat back and looked over my shoulder to start backing up, I saw it leaning over a fence along the road and looking at me. Seeing each other seemed to shock both of us. I yelled, there it is and whipped my head around and floored the gas and at the same time it leaped back and took off across the creek, through a field and into the woods near a power grid tower. As I was heading up the road, I took one more glance over into the field and it was already across the field and ducking into the woods. I must admit my fright instinct won easily over my fight instinct once again. So all I saw was yes. It was upright, hairy, with light brown hair, maybe three to four inches long, and even though it was moving very quickly, I saw it was yes. That Yes, Its gate seemed very casual. Rick said when he turned his head around, it was already gone, so he never got a glimpse of it.

16:48 We went back that evening before dark, and there were no tracks as the ground was very dry and hard dirt. But we did notice that the fence it was leaning over at its waist came up to just below my chin as a result of the drop off on that side. That email was so long that I am bringing up the second email right now. Goes on to say, I believe I saw it one more time though. A few miles away. There's a man made reservoir lake in southwestern Ohio, Caesar's Creek, which was being built in the seventies. The corp of Engineer was under the gun to get the dam completed, and we're working twenty four to seven to finish it. I think that's because there are some disputes about the small town of New Burlington, Ohio that had been vacated. It would end up at the bottom of Caesar's Creek. There was still cemetery in the town that some said still had bodies in it. Whatever the reason, we had heard that the workers on the night crew had laid down their tools and refused to work, that there was something around that was watching and bothering them. Putting out more high powered floodlights did not help either, so we thought we'd check out the earth and dam being built. I suspected that whatever this animal or monster was, maybe it was migratory. That was why we never saw it in the winter. Caesar's Creek was several miles south of Cook Road, and we had

18:21 also heard of a couple of strange sightings around Cincinnati, still further south. We went to the dam overlook and hung out until after dark, and we did hear a howl similar to the one I'd never forget, and a couple of what I would now call whoops, And then we thought we saw something duck behind a tree stump halfway down the hill into the valley, probably one hundred yards away from us. But since the whole area was closed and we were the only two there. It seemed to have been approaching us when it ducked down. We once again got cold feet. Over the next couple of years, I started watching for Maine articles and going to the library to do research. I saw the video of Patty finally, probably on in search of as I recall, and became even more convinced that what we had dealt with was not this bigfoot. What I saw looked nothing like Patty. I then spent the next forty plus years doubting my own memory, wondering if my mind had created this beast. I no longer discussed it with anybody but family and just moved on with my life. But I will say this, I could probably have been convinced that the two visuals I had were misidentifications had it not been for the howl that penetrated my body from a few yards away. There's nothing I've seen or heard about in all those years that could make that howl.

19:45 When Matt Moneymaker recorded the Ohio Howel in eastern Ohio, I almost jumped out of my pants, yelling, that's it, that's it, that's what I heard. And when I finally saw a legend of Boggy Creek. I just sa maybe there was such a thing. The movie was based on a true story. After all, it was finding Bigfoot years later that refreshed my interest in the animal, and I was softening my stance that my beast couldn't have been a Bigfoot. After all, humans come in every shape, color, and size. Why couldn't this beast? And I decided that since there were still people out there looking for Bigfoot, I should write a book about my encounter someday. The Only problem was that it would be a nonfiction book with no ending, no animal, no solution. I'd been a fairly illiterate, sorry, fairly literate computer user since the eighties and studied programming in college, but I was never one to surf the internet. I had my favorite TV shows, and I loved all sports, so I listened to sports and sports talk radio whenever on the radio. But I had never listened to a single podcast in my life, and I'd never watched anything on YouTube until late of twenty twelve, or sorry, late twenty twenty two. I'd finally switch from an Android phone to an iPhone, and of course it had the podcast app on it, and About a year ago, I asked a guy how to find and listen to podcasts. I started out listening to some sports podcasts, but one day I did a search on Bigfoot in Voila. Needless to say, that's all I listen to now, subscribing to probably twenty to thirty different channels. I started with Cliff and Bobo. I mean, why wouldn't

21:22 you? That's they're the best. Bigfoot and Beyond is the podcast, so don't If you're not subscribed to big Font Beyond with Cliff and Bobo, make sure you are back to the story. I started with Cliff and Bobo because of their name recognition, because I liked Cliff on the show. You seemed the most level headed and rational of the four. But now I enjoy listening to the shows that have encounters, the shows that discussed the science of Bigfoot, and even to form a few opinions about some of the special abilities that the creatures seem to have. I've even considered starting my own podcast, but I think that's way too much work for my age. Now you can do it. You may have absolutely you may have absolutely no use for a fifty year old story like mine with no real conclusion, but I'll venture to say nobody else has come up with a final conclusion either where you'd all be out of business. Hello, that's funny, Yeah right, I don't think.

22:19 Well, no, the stories people will always see Bigfoot. I did initiate a BFRORO report when Finding Bigfoot was on and I found out there was such a thing, And a guy called me twice to set up a phone interview after he got my online report, but twice I chickened out and didn't do the interview, all due to the stigma and the ridicule. You gave up pretty easy, but I imagine he was used to canceling interviews. But now, fifty years after it all took place, I'm about to retire. I'm almost sixty eight years old, and I really don't care a whole lot about what others say or think, and that's the privilege of age. That's a fantastic encounter. Wow. If listeners have ever been to that area, and I want to say, in most of the encounter, it's called Cookroad.

23:15 The beginning, I think it was called Carpenter Road, but most of the time it's called Cookroad. If you've ever been to that area or you know of stories sightings in that area, please contact me by email. I'm going to say the email once at the beginning Bigfoot Society at gmail dot com. I get tons of emails every day, and I'm going to start sharing the encounters I get in the email in the episodes. So please, if you're going to send in your bigfoot encounter, let me know what name you would want to be referred to by, and if it's okay to share your encounter in the episode. Just because that cut stone on a lot of back and forth. A lot of these encounters you can take a week or so, and that's if the person ever contacts me back by email. It's a fascinating encounter what was seen in that Cook River road, So let me know.

24:18 You can send me an email or put a contact about what your encounter was in that area. If you've ever heard another encounter in that area, I know Ohio is just rampant with big foot encounters. And if you've ever heard more about the story about the motorcycle gang being attacked by bigfoot in Ohio, that's nuts. I would love to hear more about that. And man, if you've ever heard about another big like any other motorcycle gangs being attacked by bigfoot. Let me know those. Just put it all in the comments or send me an email. Let's get into the let's get into some YouTube comment all right. So I'm going to go ahead and share some content, some share some comments from the YouTube, and let's see. First one, I'm actually not going to share because this gentleman just sent me an email, So I'm not going to spoil the surprise of when I get that actual email ready to share. But I will say this. He's from Oregon, and he's got some stories about a certain creature I've been trying to find more about and how it's been cited in Oregon. So that's the little spoiler. But coming up soon, there's going to be an email that's going to knock your socks off. So you're just gonna have to wait for that. From the West Lynn, Oregon, number three oh six, Johnny writes, we've encroached upon

25:52 their property, taken their feeding hook areas, and built houses where they once roamed. That's exactly right. I mean, it's no surprise that you know we're building warehouses on where they once lived. That's why you're seeing them in places where there's just houses. Well, they used to live there also. It's no surprise I get all these reports about how people are clearing the area around their house. The trees, the brush, and the bigfoot are getting super mad. Well, man, you'd be mad too if someone came and knocked your house down, right, But I'm not saying it's right. I'm not saying it's wrong. But if you own a house with a lot of woods with it area, be aware you might make a bigfoot mad. Let's see the second call in show. I have a call in show Bigfust Society AM. It's every Sunday night at eight thirty pm Central Standard time. If you have a big coot encounter, please make sure you're there so you can call in with your bigfoot story, your bigfoot encounter, and I would love to hear it and share it with others. We had Donna call in and episode number two last week. Donna's encounter was very interesting. If you haven't heard that episode yet, go under the live tab on YouTube and it's episode number two and check it out. She was a security officer at Duke University

27:25 and had an encounter with a bigfoot on the campus. It's a very very interesting encounter, Crystal comments, So listening to Donna, I believe what she was suggesting is that the bigfoot came through the vehicle, not through an open door as though it were in the vehicle, and exited the vehicle, because at first I thought she was saying it came out of a door on the vehicle. And as different as her experience was, I wouldn't discount it. Bigfoot are quite hanky. Well that's the thing, Crystal, and I agree with you. No matter how interesting or wild or out of control these encounters are, you can never never discount it because we can learn something from anything.

28:11 And at the end of the day, Bigfoot Society is a place for people to share what happened to them. I'm not to judge if it's real or not, and if you are, maybe you just need to think about what you're doing. So all right, let's keep going with This is from an older episode John Burton shared about the terrifying story of a hunter found mangled below the tree. That is a great episode of a situation that happened to a hunter down in northern Alabama, I believe. But Philip Shares sharing stories about bigfoot is a safety issue. It protects against attacks. I agree, you would know about certain areas that you might not want to get into unless you're prepared, or how to how doing certain things might anger a bigfoot, something like that. Philip also says, wherever there is one bigfoot, there be others around, as you suppose. Absolutely, if you are going to try to capture a specimen by taking down a specimen, you better be aware that bigfoots brothers are probably around the corner, so be aware of that.

29:34 Also on the second Bigfoot Society, am Mark says, I've never seen a bigfoot, but I'm a believer. I've seen a lot of strange things in the sky and on the ground. Mark, I'd love to hear what you have seen in the sky and on the ground. In Alex's episode in a Hood River, Oregon, to do with his albino bigfoot encounter, a pony girl says, and I can't even imagine terrifying just hearing him recount the experience. We'll be back with more Bigfoot Society after these words from our sponsors. I'm guessing the other Bigfoot didn't want their home force destroyed by the loggers.

30:17 Can't say, I can't say, I blamed them absolutely. Len comments with a few kind words, you've become the supreme leader in Sasquash podcast. Your content is never thin or searching. You have the best encounters contacting you. You started out on your cell phone in your car, and now you've rocketed to the top in your peer group. Impressive. I appreciate the kind words. There are definitely some other great Bigfoot podcast out there as well, but I am trying to be the best, the best one for listening to listening two people talk about, I'll share about their encounters. So Lenn, I appreciate you listening to the podcast as you fix your seaplanes. Miss Shroom says, hey, guys, yeah, I would not shoot either. I can't believe some people are so matter of fact that they don't exist. There's so much we just don't know about our planet. But that is what is fun about life. I think that's true. Part of the fun about life is getting out there trying to figure out the mysteries, which I think the greatest mystery, of course is Bigfoot. We're still trying to figure it out.

31:33 So thank you, Miss Shroom. On a fan favorite, I believe it's almost the episode that has the most views on YouTube a four year standoff with Sasquatch and Renier, Oregon. User of the Maggie says, not to be rude, but everybody wants a good photo or video of them. And here's a family that saw them on a regular basis, seeing them clearly over and over again, but not one foot ten feet tall and stubbornly standing in the light. Still no photo. Okay, here's the thing. First thing, neither of us know how we would react if we were just in the middle of being totally messed with by four huge bigfoot to the point where you know you can't really live the rest of your life because you've just you're living with PTSD for the rest of your life. Right now, I will say this, perhaps there's more to the story, and I would really suggest that make sure you're subscribed to this channel and hit the bell icon because guys, we are so close to getting a different viewpoint on this story. And that's all I'm going to say. It's close, guys, It's gonna just it's gonna be amazing. I can't wait it's going to happen. I am ready for

33:06 it to happen, and I can't wait to take that phone call, so get ready, guys. All right. It had a face like a rock troll and covered in white hair. From the Cowlitz County, Washington user Lee says, Western Washington is unbelievably abundant in these creatures. Everyone who has been in the back forty knows what I'm talking about. Shoot, the whole Cascade range is full of many different types of cryptids. Ask anny native brother or sister of the different Sallast tribes whose ancestors have been here for thousands of years. Lee, I love to talk to you, man. I'm going to have to check the email to see if you have reached out. I don't think you reached out, but man, you have so many amazing comments.

33:54 I'd love to talk to you, dude. Going back to episode three seven, Saint Clair County, Michigan, user mSv says Sasquatch will come out of hiding in the last days. He knows it too, that's why they're increased sightings. Great video. Thanks, that's really interesting. It opens up a whole different episode. I think, I don't know. I don't know if how I feel about Sasquatch being related to and when he says and times he's really he's referring to, you know, if you look in the Bible, in the New Testament, in the Book of Revelation, and things that happen at the end of the world, that's what people are usually referring to when they're talking about the last days. I believe I might be totally miss reading that in my own worldview MV, so I apologize if that's not what you were saying. Let me know in the comments if I misinterpreted that. Let's all right. Here we go more with this Cowlitz County, Washington episode, which is episode three three three. Jim Gray, your story is amazing.

35:19 What a great but scary show. This stuff is real, is what is so crazy about it all? Trust me, they are. Jim. You've commented quite a bit, and man, I know you have some wild stories. I can just feel it, and I'd love to talk to you someday. Man reach out Patrick User. Patrick says, just turn the TV on to watch dinner and here is this as I'm watching from Cowlitz counting myself. This guy must have had his long view experience where he lived in either the Ostrander or Mount Brignon area. By the way, he explains it. I doubt it was Columbia Heights, but who knows. Interesting Patrick, Thanks for commenting. If you ever hear any bigfoot encounters out there, please reach out, you know the email. And here's an example of the kind of things that Jim user Gym for a few comments Ago has experienced. I heard the same thing happen to me deer hunting first day, just breaking daylight, stopping or hitting his chest twenty five feet behind me. Yes, I heard it walking right to me. I knew what it was, first time hunting there at my cottage up on the lake, up back dead end road, sitting on my milk crate. Why me right? Twenty fourteen. I've not been in the woods since I stopped hunting, fishing, hiking pretty much. That destroyed my life. Now I still have PTSD. I live about twenty five miles from my cottage. There are at least two young ones here where I live now. They bang on trees, push them over crap like that.

36:54 Every time I bring my two kittens outside on the steps for fresh air in a cage, of course, but bigfoots drive me back inside. And I'm not happy about this one. I want my life back, So that's most of it. But I thought it was gonna kill me. So I'm done hunting. I carry my forty five every day everywhere pretty bad. I know Jim from Maine. Yes, Maine, They're everywhere here. Just great, right, tell my story if you want. I got nothing to hide. I only tell the truth. God bless Jim. I want to invite you on the podcast. Reach Out to me. You know my email big Faciety at gmail dot com. Reach out. I love to chat with you on the podcast. Man, we got back to the Kowlitz County, Washington episode.

37:49 Don't Fear the Reaper. User says, bro, your layout is gold star. Been listening to podcasts concerning cryptids for ten years. I'm not going anywhere. Thank you. I appreciate you having Bigfoot Society on your listener. List in Spirit says, make a playlist all videos so I can press play and YouTube will auto play your videos. Well, I mean, I have a playlist of Bigfoot Society and almost all the videos are on there, so I think it already exists. But maybe I'm missing something from this comment. Let me know in the comments if there's a better way I need to make this playlist. So that you guys can. I would love it if you guys can just like listen to all the videos all the time. I mean, that'd be great for me and it'd be great for you guys. So let me know if there's a better way I should do that. Here we go, same episode, user ed Brown. Sure glad to hear that somebody is bringing the truth to light because the public needs to know because where I'm from, people go missing without a trace, people that were born in these mountains of Kentucky. And that's what bothers me. The government turning a blind eye to it. They're looking into the UFO. Why can't they look into this? Amen? They are definitely looking in under the table because me and my cousin got runned out of this haller once and a couple hours later, the National Guard was all over the place with their full gear. Wow, that's wild. Reach out my friend back a Ways two episode two sixty two,

39:29 which is the Martin Groves dog Man Encounter episode live from monsterfest Ie last year. Hold on, there's more dog Man stuff coming. Someone who knows users says it's crazy that I grew up camping the LBL every summer and never knew any of this. I'm glad I didn't know. That's wild. I can't imagine just living like camping there all the time and never knowing that it's one of the most wild places for dog man and big foot sightings. You got to read his books. You may never go camping there again. Episode three, three to two. Believe Yeah. The Black Hills, South Dakota.

40:15 User Mistletoe says interesting, I live in the Black Hills, and I've heard of a few encounters of sasquatch and Spearfish Canyon and into the Southern Hills. I'd like to think all mothers care regardless of species. I'm glad this was not traumatic for him other than wanting to sleep in the interior rooms. Thanks for sharing. Thanks for sharing this experience and where it occurred. Great interview. That's a fun episode because a gentleman who contacted me pretty much he was in his sleeping bag outside sleeping and he was dragged off in his sleeping bag Albert Osmin's style. But it's a newer encounter. Well, I want to say eighties, I don't know. Let me know in the comments. I want to say his eighties or nineties. Ed is back with a count a comment on the Black Hills, South Dakota episode, These things can put you to sleep. One put me to sleep in my first encounter Southeast Kentucky.

41:14 Believe me, these things can put you to sleep. What's up? Some kind of sound waves? They can put you to sleep one day in May in my encounter. He also writes, love your channel and just got done doing an interview. Oh yeah, it's okay. I know who this isn't Oh yeah, yeah, I know who this is. And I think you're a legit guy. And I hope to hear my encounters soon. God bless him. Keep digging. The government will finally come around like they have with the UFO. These be sturely real people and that's the bottom line. Appreciate you, sir. Be safe and be healthy. Back to the Black Hills of South Dakota, user John says, I believe this story my whole life. My dad lied to me about Bigfoot till about a year before he passed told me the truth about my family experience with them and how it all went down. I was shocked to hear it. John, reach out if you're willing to share your family story about how they all experienced sasquatch. I would love to hear it. We can record your story and maybe help some people out along the way. User Bonnie says, thank you for your show.

42:31 I've seen lots of strange things. Well, reach on out, Bonnie. I'd love to hear them and help others by sharing your story. Back to episode two fifty five, terrifying story of a hunter found mangled below the tree, user Michael says, I live in Alaqua. I'm gonna sorry, I'm going to mispronounce that. I apologize. I live in Alaqua County, Florida, and I heard stories of the swamp ape from my sister's boyfriend's stepdad. He was a big dude, over six feet, big old guy who did construction, and it scared him. There's a few limestone limestone quarries out there. They were near his house in thick Woods. Me personally haven't had well seen. I've got a whiff of them though, going swimming in the quarries with friends. It spooked me. But at the same time, super curious Flora's got some weird stuff. If you haven't heard the al squatch Father episode, the first one, it's got a crazy skunk ape encounter where a bold got its head ripped off. Definitely, let's continue, my friends this time. This is tales from the YouTube comments. Number one Silent Edge TV, who is a YouTube channel member. He's a YouTube channel member, which means he is able to see new videos at free and also so early.

44:00 If you are a Patreon subscriber or YouTube channel member, you get to hear stuff ad free in early. But Silent Edge TV, I appreciate you being a channel member and helping the channel grow to our major goal of becoming full time so we can do this all the time and help people share their encounters and also learn about Bigfoot. He says, this is great. There's a plethora of untold BF stories out there. The encounters are happening now as we speak. That's the crazy thing, sir, so, I was thinking about this the other day. So think about you have these stories in John Green's books from way back right, and you've got the stories like Albert Osman where he's carried away in a sleeping bag. Well, there's stories like this happening right now, and you just have you know, the stories that we're hearing in our podcast right now. These could be the stories that are books.

45:00 We'll be back with more Bigfoot society after these words from our sponsors forty to fifty years from now. But we just don't realize it, and I really hope that the Colorado Bigfoot hoax is not talked about for like fifty years. Ough, guys, it's not real. If you want to hear more about that, I did a video about my specific thoughts about why I think that. So that's another cool thing about being a YouTube channel member or Patreon member is you get to see behind the scenes videos like that where I just kind of put it all out there. So check it out. Also from the Tales from the YouTube comments, user Hensley says, I heard about an incident from somewhere down near the Big South Fork National Park, Kentucky side of the BSF. Short version, this guy had. This guy had went hunting down there, and guess he sat out down there somewhere about all day, did some scouting around. But he finally headed back to his pickup and while at his truck standing beside it, he had looked up on a cliff. On top of the cliff and he saw, well, this is what the professionals gathered. Anyways, he saw bigfoot standing on top of the cliff looking his way. Well, I guess the guy started to get in his truck and leave, but then he got the bright idea to take a shot at this

46:31 bigfoot. Evidently he hit the thing pretty good. It fell off the cliff well before he could get very far from his truck to look for it. He started hearing these growls and howls and tree breaking, just all kinds of noises from all around him. And the noises kept getting closer to him, so he turned and made a dash for his truck. He had the door open, just about to climb in, and whatever grabbed him pulled him out. But whenever what was finished with him, they folded his legs back on him, put him in the truck. The heels of both feet were touching the back of his head. Wow. Anyways, like I said, whoever found him called the authorities, and they were the ones who gathered what happened to him. Besides, there were bigfoot tracks all sizes around his truck.

47:14 I want to say, I've heard that in a podcast. If that's something from a podcast, I put it in the comments where that's from. That sounds like a very familiar story from the undisclosed Woods in Iowa, number three nineteen. I believe user Mark says the commercials were agonizing to listen to. I know they are, and I kind of just let them put the commercials in. And here's why, because if I want to do this full time, I'm sad to say, sorry to say, there has to be ads, there has to be sponsorships. But if you don't want to hear those ads and you want to hear stuff early, you can become a YouTube channel member, or you can become a Patreon subscriber at patreon dot com. Forward slash the Bigfoot Society. I support the people that I listen to. I would recommend that if everyone would support the channels they listen to. This is my soapbox. You would want to have way more content from the people that you enjoyed listening to, and they could keep doing it forever. So that's my two cents. You know, you can do whatever you want, but we appreciate it. From a Bigfoot in Nebraska clip from way back in episode number two thirty eight with Steve Berg, user Scott says, I cannot prove

48:46 this, of course, but I may have seen a bigfoot north of mindon at the end of a non maintenance road back in twenty fourteen, Scott reach out if you listen to this From the Henry Franzoni episode the second one, user Jerry says they are real and so are dog Man and they aren't just an Oregon. It's a fact. Man. Oh that's hardcore. If you have had a dog Man encounter, please reach out to me Bigfaciety at gmail dot com. I would love to hear about if you've had a dog Man encounter two, so I'm trying to get some of those episodes together too.

49:29 From the Pterodactyl episode number three oh eight, we have a pterodactyl sighting or gentleman reporting one about seeing a pterodactyl? Did you know that they have been seen in South Carolina? Too? And a school teacher report seeing one. About three years ago, I was driving with my girlfriend near a hydroelectric dam and we both saw this large, weird looking bird flying low. We looked at it and thought it could be a blue heron or a pelican, but there are no pelicans in the area. As this thing glided out in front of us, we noticed a long head in why leatherly leathery looking wings. I said, that's a pterodactyl. She saw it too. There are no large birds that look like this thing did, and that pointed long head was a dead giveaway that it wasn't a normal bird. I know it sounds crazy, but they said the selacanth was extinct, and it's not. If you don't know what the celaconth is, google it. It's a fish that they thought it was extinct and it's still alive. It's pretty cool. A comment on a post I did about have you had any unexplainable encounters, user Michigan Bigfoot Research Society says yes, I seen a big foot in February twenty sixteen and the Thumb of Michigan walking back into the woods and to cut down cornfield.

50:54 As I was driving, A couple of other cars were pulled over to watching it. I would love to hear more on that. Reach out Back to the Saint Clair County, Michigan three oh seven episode, Sheila writes, also, he was wanting this sighting and he got it. He stood his ground, but he was also lucky that the sasquatch didn't come for him. Sasquatch showed himself to him, but he didn't have to. You have to have a healthy respect for these creatures and not push the boundaries when you don't really know what you're dealing with. Be careful what you wish for, and keep your kids away from an area you know sasquatch and habit. That's really interesting. Yeah, I mean, I agree with that as a parent.

51:39 If you know you're in an area that has super aggressive sasquatch, maybe you don't bring your kids. I mean, it's up to you, but just saying be careful. From the San Gabriel Mountains. Saved by a Hatchet episode, Kronos says, I'm just waiting for Bigfoot to do a podcast to discuss all his encounters the stupid humans. That's kind of funny. It's kind of silly, but it made chuckle. So there you go. From an old Missing four on one theme short I did. User Dave says they weren't specifically created because of that, but that was definitely a part of it. I believe. I think he's talking about the national parks, especially with Theodore Roosevelt in the early nineteen hundreds, he created one hundred and fifty million more acres of national parks in wildlife service than what already existed. And he was a sasquatch believer. You know that's a great place. That's a great point, Teddy Roosevelt, I mean not just Sasquatch. He believed in the Snalygaster too, which is another cryptid. Tried to go hunting for him. Do you believe that the national parks were created because of things? Maybe like bigfoot, sasquatch, or other cryptids or who knows. Let me know what your thoughts are down in the comments and we'll see how crazy we can get. This time from a comment I did, have you ever had a face to face

53:16 in kind of a bigfoot user, kill z UFOs over Norad, apparitions in nearby Helen Hunt falls, flying humanoids in Creston, sasquatch prince in Florence, tree structures in Pike National Park, and a ghost in my house, all in Colorado. That said, they're mostly relatively short stories, but also know a ton of stories from southern Colorado locals. We've had sasquatch, dog man, skinwalker's UFOs and ghost stories from here. Well, dude or sorry, well individual, reach on out, you know how, because it looks like you got some stories to share and I would love to chat with you.

54:01 We have an interesting comment from a while back that I never read from our old friend Swampdog, and this is on the is Bigfoot related to the Giants of the Old Testament star with James Lady from the Michigan Aboriginal Project swamp Dog Right, So you know, I've been thinking about this. I even showed a friend of mine this podcast. He's from the ll Nappe tribe of New Jersey. We both agree it sounds like a skinwalker demonic sounds you should research that area with the natives. Honestly, when you heard that, he was like this skinwalker, shut that off. Just be careful. Bigfoot is not the only things out there. Just saying if you've seen something out there that is not Bigfoot, let me know. You can send me a comment, and if you're not comfortable with that, you can send me an email as well. Let's see. User Justin writes an interest in comment. Also, I'm Chippewa, and what I can tell you is that I'm not sure what native language that is, but it's definitely an old native language. I'm almost one hundred percent And you can go to almost any reds They are common on the reds, just part of our culture, but we don't usually go looking for them. They're a type of person that returned to the forest and evolved even more wild where we evolved in the opt direction. Never alone. When you hear them, get down on the ground and look. You can see them easily. Like that. They think that they are not visible if they

55:35 stay still, because their hair almost changes and blends into whatever they are around, making people think they disappeared or just vanished. Advantages of having a clear hair shaft. Very interesting. I'm also always fascinated by hearing the accounts from Native Americans, and I would you know, if you have any yourself, please reach out. But I think you know they have the original information, and thank you for sharing that. I really appreciate that user streams are us. The metal door sounds are supposed to be portals opening. That's interesting.

56:19 I haven't heard that one before. Definitely going to look at more into that. User Steve says, haven't heard him like singing, but I've heard accounts of tribal music drums monk like chanting. Oh, if you've heard any accounts like that or experience something like that, please put that down. In the comments, user Joel says, I saw big. I believe that means bigfoot. I saw big at North Lake on Highway twelve and Colorado up the river. This hairy man looks like brock Lesner the four times bigger. They really are out there, and it's sad that the government keeps it hush because they don't want to freak the people out. I think there's a lot of that.

57:05 A lot of it is kept hush so that we don't freak out as a society. User David says, just found your channel. Excellent voice and interviewing skills. Keep them coming. I sure will. User Christine, thank you for sharing. I never go outside at night here outside Harrison. User Michelle says bigfoot fallow the water lakes and creeks, so if you're camping or hiking and record water sounds, it's because they're in the water. Interesting. User David right underneath it says there's a couple amazing stories on Subarctic Alaska Sasquatch channel. Fred is an amazing individual. Make sure you're subscribed to him. One about a bigfoot initially coming up out of a swamp right next to a man in a bird blind and another where they witnessed one jumping into a beaver pond when they were chasing it. It never came out. It never came out of the pond. They sat there for a long long time waiting for it, only to have it reappear a distance away in a grove of trees.

58:04 How bizarre is that? If you've ever heard an encounter like that, definitely let me know. User Christine also says they're everywhere in Michigan. My oldest son lives in gross Pointe Farms. I'm his mom in mid Michigan woods outside Harrison. Plenty of evidence here, video of snow tracks seven feet apart and at a tree night house bangs several years ago. Plenty tree twist bends, tree breaks along dirt roads. Less pool brings out, brings out the big stuff. Lovelock Cave. It had sixty mammified bodies in that cave in three giants, two to ten foot tall giants in an eighteen foot tall giant.

58:52 Excavators found them. Smithsonian did have them until Big Brothers swipe them. If you think there's truth to that story, go ahead put it in the comments and what other stories or maybe you've found. Maybe you found the bones, the larger bones, or maybe your relative did back in the day. Let me know. Going back to Martin Grove's encounter story, user TMAC says, in twenty eighteen, I was in the woods and heard this metallic door opening noise and felt like it was a portal opening, and I always wondered what it was. I think I have my answer now. I would love to talk to you about that. Please reach out to me and tell me a little bit more about what you encountered. Here's a little bit. Here's a little bit longer one. This is on Alex's Albino Sasquatch encounter story.

59:45 Just recent user mm says says, you know, it wasn't a story that got me. It was the mere mention of those old nineteen eighties pickup trucks. We had one that was a Trooper. The first brand new car my folks ever bought became my first car, and of course I absolutely despised it, as any teenager would. We'll be back with more Bigfoot Society after these words from our sponsors. Seeing as I learned to drive in my dad's brand new Ram and now I had to drive that to school, taking for granted that most kids took the bus to school. If I ever run into one, I'll friggin buy the darn thing. Just remember where I came from. Isn't that the thing finding your first car? Yeah? I get that.

1:00:30 I totally get that. Man, I thought that thing was a workhorse. Might as well drop a true story though, here we go. My older brother and his friends were finally old enough to go trick or treating one year when we used to live in northern California. I was five, so my brother had to be eleven. They left, and I remember them storming back into the house in tears, scared out of their minds. My brother's face was beat red. He then calmed down enough to talk about how he and his friends had cut behind some streets with a big steel trash container on it, the ones that stood like five feet tall, and as they got closer they could hear something digging inside. They thought a bear or some animal had gotten inside and was eating. I vividly recall my brother saying a big, black, hairy arm reached out of the container and was so long he was able to touch the ground. They saw that and screamed and ran. My grandpa my dad and my uncles went out with their rifles but never saw anything.

1:01:27 They found the big band with its tops open and bags were ripped apart, but not the body that the arm was attached to. My body never My brother never talked about it, nor the adults there that night. My brother and my folks have passed, so I can't ask them anymore, and I'm not that close to my uncles. Would have been awesome to have heard it from my brother's own lips, but he refused to speak about it, even when he was still alive. And that's the part a person refused to speak, refuses to speak about something you know it really affected them. Thank you for sharing that story about your family. It's very very interesting. Michelle comes back. It's my personal opinion that the Bigfoot in dog men are hybrids offshoots of the giants and other abominable creatures that weren't supposed to be back here in Noah's time. The dog men and Bigfoot are not supposed to be here either, but just proves that the hybrids didn't all die but hid in the mountain regions all over the world. Well, that's interesting. If you've heard of hybrids hiding in mountain regions all over the world, and we know a bigfoot. But if you've heard of other things, let me know in the comments and share what you've heard so we can all learn together. Here's a fun one from Jim. How would you like to get out with a group and go out and possibly have your own encounter instead of just listening to other people's stories. Okay, here's the deal, dude, I don't just sit

1:03:01 here and listen to people's stories. First, is I am not a researcher. I consider myself a journalist. So my deal is that I talk to people about their encounters so that they can help themselves getting that off their chest, but also help others that listen. Usually they're able to remember things that they experience but that they forgotten. Now, on the other hand, have I actually been out. I sure have, so, yeah, dude, I've been out. You can go down the show notes and there's a link to my buddy Tate Hoeronymous's YouTube channel where I actually went out two years ago in Iowa with him on a bigfoot expedition. We had some stuff happen, so I would recommend watching the documentary that he made about that Weekend. It's a great documentary. Also, I went out again this last this last summer with my friend Tate and some others. It's going to be having a documentary coming out with that. I'm keeping quiet about what happened. It was pretty awesome, but I'm keeping quiet until Tate releases that episode coming up later this year. So to respond, I'd love to go out with a group.

1:04:28 I've gone out with a group multiple times, probably not as much as you, because it sounds like you are a pretty hardcore researcher up there in Maine. But yeah, I've been out and I plan to go out more, especially after we come full time the traveling will start. So appreciate you with that comment. Jim. Let's see, this is part of an interesting conversation I'm going to read a little bit of Because Jim shares a little bit more, it does get a little bit intense. So Len user, Len, I'm redoing a trip to Pitt Lake in British Columbia I did in the nineties.

1:05:16 This area is rich in Sasquatch history. Totally agree. I bet you're gonna maybe run into some cool stuff. Jim responds, that's awesome news. I've been studying them for forty years and have had many encounters with them. But what got me started is when me and my best friend were out riding one night. We came up on two of them, two adults, and he shot female in the upper left ribs with a few full choke twelve gage with bookshot. She survived in her mate, being a huge male, killed a dog that was with us and threw her at me. She landed at my feet. So I started studying them because I want to know what they are. I'm not a bigfoot believer, but I am a bigfoot hour I started a group, Southern Bigfoot Researched Team. Jim would love to chat with the forty years of bigfoot research and you've had some amazing things that you've shared in the comments. It's just incredible. Let's see, we've got a few responses to what's the most intense bigfoot encounter story you've ever heard? Ranger N says, definitely the government team hired to take out the rogue squatches that were encroaching too close to a town. Very intense. I would love to hear more about that. Was that something on a podcast you heard or is that something that you experienced in your town. Please reach out or put in the comments what that is? User mock says carry Arnold's encounter rip carry Yes,

1:06:49 carry on, definitely sorry that I carry is gone. User Brandon says my encounter where I saw bigfoot writing and or orange orb like a hippity hop at tree top height with a rope with coyotes or dogs hanging from it like a stringer of fish. Wow, that's pretty intense, Brandon. Hey, let's chat about it. We'ld love to chat with you about that. Let's see a few from the were Near Oregon episode. User is live like mate, great interview. In a strange way, I can relate to this man.

1:07:30 I too, grew up in southern California. My dad was also a marine. Every year our family visited the San Diego Zoo. The day my dad retired from the Marines, we bought a travel traveler and headed north, bought some land, and settled in An, Oregon. It was nineteen seventy seven and I just turned eleven, so about the same age as this man. I never had a sasquatch direct sighting, but several I'm being watched in flashes of something tall, dark and moving fast through the deep woods while fishing the river and picking berries. I've moved back south at fourteen years old, but lived back and forth to the Great PNC three times. I may have moved back up there again, or I may move back up there again. It's amazing. I've driven by the Trojan Nuclear Power Plant and renear several times, so the story fits in my brain. Thanks for a great interview in podcasts by both parties. User LTC rights. The Sasquatch and a rural reservation in Sparks, Nevada are normadic nomadic, taking off in the summer, returning at wintertime. When I hear the coyotes howl here, I whoop like a Sasquatch, and amazingly they shut up. Sasquatch here and my reservation are the same, except for the older male howls. He's black and eight feet tall.

1:08:48 They eat the bark of cedar trees here. LTC, I would love to chat with you about the knowledge that you have encountered over your life, and if you would be willing to share any of that, I would love to interview you and hopefully the rest of us can learn from what you've experienced. LTC continues. What makes so truthful to me is that I went to Fort Bidwell at the Payu reservation up there, and they told me that sasquatch travel under the power lines there and hid in the pasture mimicking cows. Also at Payot. Guy, I'm sorry, I'm mispronouncing that word. I apologize. My age invited me in my let's see, invited me and my ex girlfriend in. I asked to use the bathroom and he said go ahead. When I went in there, his bathroom window was taped up with newspaper. I asked him why. He said the sasquatch saw him. He stated, he jumped off and he ran and put the newspaper up quick. Okay, well they had to edit that one a little bit. But yeah, that's really interesting. I don't I don't doubt it. From a swamp Dog and the big Foot update Mike user Mike says, I know where there's something in New Jersey. I saw it from not that close at all. The two most more memorable things were A its hair on its head were like one of those cockatile birds, like a pampadoor mohawk. And b when I realized it was

1:10:21 a real living thing. My tongue went numb with an electric feeling, and it tastes like copper in my mouth and a pain in my lower back. Ooh, that's not good, my friend. Please be safe. Let's see from the Enchanted Circle, New Mexico the Villainous Gate episode, which is a fun one. If you haven't heard that one, definitely check it out. User John says I was working out a film in New Mexico near a big way. We used Ghost Ranch, an hour and a half northwest of Santa Fe as our base camp and lived there for two months. We had the ranch to ourselves. It was winter and because of COVID we couldn't share cabins.

1:11:11 The thick adobe walls were solid and no wood except around the roof and two windows. One morning, around one thirty am, I was awoken by loud knocking on the wood. My door was wooden, but the entryway wouldn't allow someone to come and go undetected. The only possibility was the roof. I never found anyone besides, we all had to be up around four am. I often found felt a presence up there walking around or hiking. It was dark, remote and kind of wonderful. New Mexico has some wild stuff in it. John, Thank you for sharing. If you've had stuff happen to you as well in the Enchanted Circle area around Taos, please reach out.

1:11:57 Put it in the comments, reach out to me via email. I would love to hear an interview more people about that area. Let's see. From a short about the Alaska bigfoot encounter, user Allen says, I've known fear and my legs turned a rubber and I couldn't move, And that was just from walking up on a bear. Thankfully, when it turned around, I was frozen in place and it just turned around and walked off. I finally exhaled and could breathe again. Need I say how My insides shook so bad I got cramps from it later. Now looking up to see this, I can almost feel my chances melting away again and seeing something like this where that bear would be the same. Either one can shred you, however the bear will eat you alive. But what does a bigfoot do? It's a good thing to think about. Scary stuff when you deal with a bear.

1:12:53 It's even more scary when you deal with a bigfoot. Back to the near episode, users Ac says, I live nearby, and I've heard them, but not around ver near. I was in Estakata, which isn't too far. I've heard rumors a big government and bigfoot. I believe it because where I had knocks and whoops over the years got hit by wildfires. In twenty twenty they shut it down. Just till the other day you had government trucks blocking the only gate up the mountain. They did that for years. I bet it was to remove any bigfoots they had going on up there. Love the content Gunnish sub for sure, Zach. I appreciate that reach out.

1:13:35 If you get more information about hearing more things about government and bigfoot, and if you experience anything more yourself, I appreciate the sub. If you're listening to this, if you're watching on YouTube, make sure you're subscribed in that you share the show with others and hit the bell so that you know when new stuff comes up. Subscriptions and sharing is where where we're going to get all the way to the moon. Going back to the enchanted circle, user Leroy share some really interesting things here, and we're just going to share these comments and see what happens in the comments for this episode. All right, Let's see here in the San Dia Mountains, just outside Albuquerque, within ten minutes of downtown, there's a large group of bigfoot. Let's put it this way. We have the big guys all over the state, the desert's foothills, and of course all of our mountain ranges. We also have a large volcanic area throughout the state. Here in New Mexico, we have a place just north of us, this place I call Dulce Base, very controversial alien base, bigfoot, skin walkers, et cetera. This area is within that one hundred mile radius.

I thought it was dear eating them until I saw him not ten feet high. Though I never felt afraid. They stayed beyond the tree line. Mostly bears and cougar do concern me. Though that's true. You don't mess with cougars. They'll get you. User Sam says, I'll share it. One of these days. I'll be waiting from Sasquatch Stories of Western North Carolina.

There's a Summit Goliath climber still in the tree out there near a clear creek. I just bought that thing and not used it once. Four hundred and twenty five dollars boom gone. I wasn't about to go get it then or now. You couldn't melt and pour me in that section in the woods. I'm pretty sure I set up smack in the middle of a squatch game drive lane, and I'll tell you they don't like that one bit. I honestly didn't think I was going to make it out of the woods that day.

It was flying towards the river a Cooley area bad lands in South Alberta. I watched it for two to three minutes. I appreciate you sharing that Finally, that's a long time to hold on to that story. User Jim Jim's Back says Camera Wyoming is a big foot hotspot too, So why do these cryptids show up in the same areas. That's a great conversation. So I have my thoughts, and I think maybe there are areas with mark Granite, maybe there's window areas. Maybe

1:19:32 they're just areas where there's not a lot of humans and the cryptids have kind of been put in that area because that's where they're making their last stand. Let me know what you think in the comments of this why you think all these cryptids are kind of in the same areas.

But I imagine there's a lot of escape carillas that screech and be down their chest at you and your friend while squirrel hunting. They're real.

1:20:38 The sound this thing made crashing through the brush tells me it is very real. In the woods of northeast Iowa. I think that's the guy who was on the Bigfoot Crossroads podcast, the Iowa one We'll see Saint Clair County user Captain says, when I was thirteen or fourteen years old, two of my cousins and a friend who was an experienced eagle scout, we're camping overnight in a clearing up on a bluff overlooking Hardy Dam Pond in Michigan had a sasquatch coming in about forty fifty yards from our camp. First we thought it was a bear, but it was not. Kind of grunted and left. You could hear it walking away at a medium pace, but you could tell it was taking long strides. It was six to seven feet tall and slender.
