Season 1

What happens when a coastal getaway turns into a nightmare — and something unseen begins to stalk the beach?

In this unsettling and atmospheric episode, we sit down with JD, a Bigfoot Society listener from Oregon, who recounts a series of chilling experiences near the unincorporated wilderness of Arch Cape. From eerie rock formations and a dark figure sprinting past a bonfire, to a terrifying voice in his head urging him to flee — JD’s story is a slow burn of dread and mystery.

You’ll hear how a contractor working nearby had his tools thrown by something in the night, and why JD — a lifelong outdoorsman — refuses to ever return to the area. This episode weaves through the shadowy coastal forests, across tidepools, and into something much stranger than legend.

Prepare for a haunting journey into one of the most remote corners of the Oregon coast — and the warning that still echoes in JD’s mind: “You must leave now.”

1
00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:02.839
You're listening to Big for Society, and I'm Jeremiah Byron.

2
00:00:03.040 --> 00:00:05.639
In this show, we go beyond the campfire stories to

3
00:00:05.679 --> 00:00:08.400
bring you first hand encounters from people who say they've

4
00:00:08.439 --> 00:00:12.759
seen something impossible. From backwoods trails and remote mountain haulers

5
00:00:12.800 --> 00:00:16.719
to quiet farms and crowded highways. The stories come from everywhere,

6
00:00:16.760 --> 00:00:19.719
and each one leaves us with more questions than answers.

7
00:00:20.719 --> 00:00:24.000
These are the voices of the people who've lived it.

8
00:00:24.079 --> 00:00:27.440
To settle in, because today you'll hear another account that

9
00:00:27.600 --> 00:00:30.120
just might change the way you see the woods forever.

10
00:00:30.440 --> 00:00:32.359
So stay with us, all right, Big for Society. You've

11
00:00:32.399 --> 00:00:35.119
got the privilege of talking to JD today. JD's a

12
00:00:35.159 --> 00:00:38.960
listener of the show and sasquatch enthusiasts from Oregon. We

13
00:00:39.079 --> 00:00:43.119
got connected and he's got some interesting things to share.

14
00:00:43.640 --> 00:00:48.039
Sounds like over there on the coastal side of Oregon.

15
00:00:48.520 --> 00:00:51.039
So welcome to the show, JD. How are you doing today?

16
00:00:52.119 --> 00:00:54.079
I'm great, Jeremiah, Thank you for having me.

17
00:00:54.960 --> 00:00:59.799
Absolutely it sounds like we are headed to a new

18
00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:03.399
part of the state that I don't think has come

19
00:01:03.479 --> 00:01:05.799
up on the show before. I'm looking at I have

20
00:01:05.840 --> 00:01:09.840
a sightings map that is on Bigfoot Society podcast dot com,

21
00:01:09.879 --> 00:01:12.280
so listeners can follow along with that. And I don't

22
00:01:12.280 --> 00:01:15.319
see any marks in that area yet, So can you

23
00:01:15.319 --> 00:01:18.439
tell us a little bit about that area that we're

24
00:01:18.439 --> 00:01:19.200
headed to today.

25
00:01:19.319 --> 00:01:22.519
Yes, the area I was speaking of is in the

26
00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:26.200
northern area of the Oregon Coast. It's south of Cannon

27
00:01:26.280 --> 00:01:30.920
Beach and south of Seaside, which are large tourist attractions

28
00:01:30.959 --> 00:01:34.480
to the area, and it really isn't. It's an unincorporated

29
00:01:34.519 --> 00:01:36.439
area and it's at least it used to be. I

30
00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:39.280
haven't been there in years, but it's just some of

31
00:01:39.319 --> 00:01:44.040
the most beautiful and remote feeling coastline of the Oregon

32
00:01:44.079 --> 00:01:46.760
Coast I've ever been to. I grew up in the

33
00:01:46.760 --> 00:01:51.319
central Orgon Coast and just east of the actual beach

34
00:01:51.920 --> 00:01:54.280
in the logging community where you know, I would play

35
00:01:54.280 --> 00:01:57.640
in the woods, you know, group camping, and it was

36
00:01:57.799 --> 00:02:01.319
very familiar with being outdoors. Was never hunter, was never

37
00:02:01.359 --> 00:02:06.519
that you know, robust for viral perhaps that loved you know,

38
00:02:06.560 --> 00:02:10.080
being outside and being in nature. And that area of

39
00:02:10.080 --> 00:02:16.319
the beach is beautiful. It's absolutely beautiful. Anyway. I discovered

40
00:02:16.400 --> 00:02:20.039
archcapes there. It's a very sparsely list at the time

41
00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:24.240
a very sparsely populated area with a few you know,

42
00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:28.520
bungalows or cabins and maybe some luxury houses. I think

43
00:02:28.520 --> 00:02:31.719
there's a resort there, but other than that, it's pretty

44
00:02:31.800 --> 00:02:35.759
much You've got Highway one O one the coastline, and

45
00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:40.639
then you have essentially forest that goes into the Cascade Range.

46
00:02:41.520 --> 00:02:45.080
So it feels, you know, very much organ very like

47
00:02:45.280 --> 00:02:53.400
wild and green and lovely and serene. Usually. Anyway, as

48
00:02:53.439 --> 00:02:57.120
I said, as I got older, I have rediscovered camping

49
00:03:00.039 --> 00:03:04.120
idle when my my interest in the big Foot phenomena

50
00:03:04.599 --> 00:03:08.719
was kind of reignited growing up. I mean, I remember

51
00:03:08.719 --> 00:03:11.240
I'm at the age I remember seeing Andre the Giants

52
00:03:11.719 --> 00:03:15.960
box going man and of course Lendard Nemo, you know,

53
00:03:16.240 --> 00:03:18.560
in search of like in the Boggy Creek, blah blah

54
00:03:18.599 --> 00:03:24.960
blah all that. But again kind of remained enthusiastic but

55
00:03:25.080 --> 00:03:28.280
very skeptical about it. Yet there's always a part of

56
00:03:28.360 --> 00:03:30.240
my head that I thought, oh, wouldn't that be fun?

57
00:03:30.360 --> 00:03:33.400
My brother and I when we were very we both

58
00:03:33.960 --> 00:03:36.520
you know, funny and stuff, and it was, you know,

59
00:03:36.520 --> 00:03:42.280
pretty innocent, all right. So fast forward mid thirties, I

60
00:03:42.280 --> 00:03:45.400
got read, like I said, red into camping and the outdoors,

61
00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:51.719
and I found Archcakes as little kind of a period remote,

62
00:03:52.080 --> 00:03:54.879
very close to churiosy stuff. So if you needed you know,

63
00:03:55.960 --> 00:04:00.159
a store or you know, medicine or something, things were accessible.

64
00:04:01.199 --> 00:04:08.439
And I believe the area I'm speaking of specifically is Arcadia,

65
00:04:09.120 --> 00:04:13.759
feat between Arcadia and hug Point, which beginner south of

66
00:04:13.840 --> 00:04:17.759
Kenney Beach. And I was there just kind of scouting

67
00:04:17.759 --> 00:04:22.639
out areas to go, and the first time I went down,

68
00:04:24.199 --> 00:04:26.800
I think it's Arcadia. I believe that's correct. You pull

69
00:04:26.839 --> 00:04:28.800
into the parking lot and it's just kind of, you know,

70
00:04:28.839 --> 00:04:33.439
your average beautiful beachline. It's flat, it's a very short

71
00:04:33.480 --> 00:04:38.480
distance between the parking lot and the beach itself, and

72
00:04:38.519 --> 00:04:42.079
it's honestly just kind of like any beach line. But

73
00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:46.519
if you hike north or south, maybe a quarter of

74
00:04:46.519 --> 00:04:50.199
a mile through these little capes, and in these capes

75
00:04:50.480 --> 00:04:53.519
the tides out there are these little spots that are

76
00:04:53.639 --> 00:04:57.839
just kind of hidden gems, particularly the one south, and

77
00:04:57.879 --> 00:05:00.000
I remember thinking, oh, I want, I want to come

78
00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:02.360
down here with you know, somebody in vacation to be

79
00:05:02.399 --> 00:05:06.800
really fun. Leading into the incident and booked. There's a

80
00:05:06.839 --> 00:05:09.720
little bungalow right up I will not on the beach

81
00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:13.040
in our scape that I booked I think four or

82
00:05:13.079 --> 00:05:16.480
five days at and I brought a friend down and

83
00:05:17.480 --> 00:05:21.800
we got there and it was lovely. We went I

84
00:05:21.959 --> 00:05:25.600
showed him the beaches and you know, we're having some fun.

85
00:05:26.680 --> 00:05:32.240
Let's see the first the first incident is we went down.

86
00:05:32.279 --> 00:05:33.920
I said, oh, there's a secret spot. But when the

87
00:05:33.959 --> 00:05:36.199
tide is out, you can get around this cape and

88
00:05:36.240 --> 00:05:39.680
there's this little cove. And I think that cove is

89
00:05:40.079 --> 00:05:42.800
just I believe it's just north of what is known

90
00:05:42.800 --> 00:05:45.600
as had Point. I'm not positive about that, but I

91
00:05:45.600 --> 00:05:49.319
believe that to be correct. And we had down there

92
00:05:49.360 --> 00:05:54.000
and ironically it did not feel this. It's like this

93
00:05:54.800 --> 00:06:00.439
little kind of like nook where the in the tie out.

94
00:06:00.759 --> 00:06:06.279
It's just these these cliffs that are moffed and there's

95
00:06:06.319 --> 00:06:11.600
you know, the rocky formage adorning the coast. It just

96
00:06:11.639 --> 00:06:16.680
feels extremely remote, extremely serene, and very much cut off

97
00:06:16.680 --> 00:06:19.839
from civilization. You can't hit the highway, there are no

98
00:06:19.920 --> 00:06:23.439
telephone lines. It just feels very remote, even though it's

99
00:06:23.480 --> 00:06:27.600
really not in proximity that far away from stuff. Anyway,

100
00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:31.279
we went down and there were all these rock formations,

101
00:06:31.319 --> 00:06:34.439
all these piles of rocks piled up, some of them big,

102
00:06:35.199 --> 00:06:39.000
and it didn't seem I mean, I wasn't thinking anything

103
00:06:40.120 --> 00:06:44.639
you know, odd about it. It's funny because there were

104
00:06:44.639 --> 00:06:48.800
no footprints. Again, when the tides up high, you can't

105
00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:51.879
really access that tape, but when it's blow you can.

106
00:06:52.040 --> 00:06:54.639
And usually you see, like I would assume when I

107
00:06:54.720 --> 00:06:58.279
first saw footprints or you know, dog prints or you

108
00:06:58.279 --> 00:07:02.879
know something, there was nothing there except these rock probations

109
00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:06.000
and huge divots in the sand that did not look

110
00:07:06.040 --> 00:07:09.800
like footprints. And I'm not saying they were, but these

111
00:07:09.839 --> 00:07:14.800
big and soft sand kind of divots, and it seemed odd.

112
00:07:15.480 --> 00:07:17.680
But my friend and I sat there and was cool.

113
00:07:18.800 --> 00:07:25.319
Sandwich not you know, nothing to really built, I believe.

114
00:07:25.399 --> 00:07:29.399
The next evening the bungalow were staying. It was not

115
00:07:29.480 --> 00:07:31.759
on the beach itself, that was maybe a five minute

116
00:07:32.000 --> 00:07:35.759
walk down to it. We went down. We had a bonfire.

117
00:07:36.600 --> 00:07:38.839
It's very you know, just a small point bonfire and

118
00:07:38.920 --> 00:07:43.560
just kind of we're enjoying the coastline and we were

119
00:07:43.639 --> 00:07:48.279
drinking some wine and my friend went back to the

120
00:07:48.319 --> 00:07:51.759
bungalow and I wanted to stay and I actually fell asleep.

121
00:07:52.720 --> 00:07:54.720
Now the odd point of this is that. I don't

122
00:07:54.839 --> 00:07:56.560
think I was asleep very long, and it wasn't like

123
00:07:56.560 --> 00:07:58.160
a deep sleep. It was like I just can knot

124
00:07:58.240 --> 00:08:02.120
it off. And it was somebody who was bipedal I

125
00:08:02.120 --> 00:08:06.879
assume was a human, came jogging past me extremely fast

126
00:08:07.120 --> 00:08:09.399
and woke me up. I was not dead asleep, but

127
00:08:09.439 --> 00:08:12.000
I was just kind of you know, when you're not off,

128
00:08:12.199 --> 00:08:15.720
like on the bus or on the airplane or something.

129
00:08:16.600 --> 00:08:20.480
And I was overwhelmed by her. Embarrassed I was because

130
00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:23.240
I looked like a hobo on your you know, hop

131
00:08:23.279 --> 00:08:25.839
ground and stick on the beach. But then I thought

132
00:08:25.879 --> 00:08:28.720
it was night out at that point, But who's jogging

133
00:08:28.720 --> 00:08:31.439
on the beach and I didn't. I just had a

134
00:08:31.480 --> 00:08:34.720
glimpse of just something dark and it was just zoomed,

135
00:08:34.799 --> 00:08:38.960
I mean just zoomed past me. And again, this is

136
00:08:39.000 --> 00:08:41.720
in soft sand, it's not wet sand. This is where

137
00:08:41.720 --> 00:08:44.000
there's a bit of an embankment where I was able

138
00:08:44.039 --> 00:08:45.639
to kind of, you know, build a small fire and

139
00:08:45.759 --> 00:08:49.120
kind of posey up against it, so to speak. So

140
00:08:49.279 --> 00:08:51.399
I mean it didn't Again, it didn't seem that weird

141
00:08:52.159 --> 00:08:55.200
in that moment. I was just embarrassed because I thought, oh,

142
00:08:55.799 --> 00:08:58.399
put the fire out, you know, behave and you know,

143
00:08:58.679 --> 00:09:02.240
go to bed. That was my thought at the moment. Okay,

144
00:09:02.399 --> 00:09:05.080
So the next day, this is the incident that really

145
00:09:05.639 --> 00:09:09.639
has stricken me over the years, is I woke up

146
00:09:10.399 --> 00:09:14.039
and my friend, who at the time we're not friends anymore,

147
00:09:14.080 --> 00:09:15.679
but at the time I know was using a lot

148
00:09:15.720 --> 00:09:21.360
of marijuana and alcohol, was very intoxicated when I woke up,

149
00:09:21.440 --> 00:09:23.200
and I was very irritated to I thought, I just

150
00:09:23.200 --> 00:09:24.960
want to get some copy, I want to go for

151
00:09:24.960 --> 00:09:28.399
a jog or do something. And they wanted to down

152
00:09:28.399 --> 00:09:31.360
to the beach, so I drove us up to again.

153
00:09:32.000 --> 00:09:35.679
I believe it's Arcadia. I think that's the parking place

154
00:09:35.799 --> 00:09:40.200
that we found that the beach entry point, and we

155
00:09:40.240 --> 00:09:43.159
went in and we hiked versus south where you would

156
00:09:43.159 --> 00:09:45.879
find the little nook that I spoke of earlier. If

157
00:09:45.879 --> 00:09:49.840
you went north, there's another case. It's much less obtrusive

158
00:09:50.120 --> 00:09:53.120
and access at any time. But what you kind of

159
00:09:53.159 --> 00:09:55.320
cross that. And the reason I say that is the

160
00:09:55.360 --> 00:09:59.240
main beach itself can be very populated for families go

161
00:10:00.279 --> 00:10:03.000
you know, there's a lot of activity, but the kids

162
00:10:03.559 --> 00:10:06.000
if you head northern south and again we're talking maybe

163
00:10:06.120 --> 00:10:08.080
maybe a quarter of a mile, not a huge walk,

164
00:10:09.120 --> 00:10:12.879
but it's much more remote. And my friend was driving

165
00:10:12.919 --> 00:10:15.759
me nuts and wanted to go play down, you know,

166
00:10:15.799 --> 00:10:19.480
wait in the water and goof around, and I said, go.

167
00:10:20.320 --> 00:10:22.799
I brought a book and a beattell I mean, set

168
00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:25.720
up here by the tree line, by the green read

169
00:10:25.759 --> 00:10:28.519
and just like be away from your drunk and read

170
00:10:28.679 --> 00:10:31.720
and just kind of like chill out. So I sat

171
00:10:31.759 --> 00:10:35.200
there and was reading, and at some point, and it

172
00:10:35.240 --> 00:10:40.120
had been maybe thirty forty minutes, my entire body was stricken.

173
00:10:40.960 --> 00:10:43.879
I'm a hairy guy, and I swear every hear in

174
00:10:43.919 --> 00:10:48.679
my body stood on it. And I can't very hard

175
00:10:48.679 --> 00:10:52.200
to articulate, but I have was so stricken with this

176
00:10:52.360 --> 00:10:57.559
intense fear I've never felt my life and something or

177
00:10:57.600 --> 00:11:00.600
somehow or you know, a hallucina of my own. I

178
00:11:00.600 --> 00:11:04.919
don't know studying my brain. Things here will hurt you,

179
00:11:05.320 --> 00:11:08.840
I will hurt you. You must leave, you must leave now.

180
00:11:09.879 --> 00:11:14.240
And I it wasn't words. I don't know exactly how

181
00:11:14.279 --> 00:11:18.039
to again explain it, but it was just the most

182
00:11:18.120 --> 00:11:20.279
fearful moment I think I've had in my entire life.

183
00:11:21.039 --> 00:11:24.000
And I looked up into the greenery, which is you know,

184
00:11:24.600 --> 00:11:26.960
two feet in front of me. I didn't see anything,

185
00:11:27.679 --> 00:11:31.200
I did not smell anything. There was no movement that

186
00:11:31.279 --> 00:11:36.320
I was able to detect. I was being watched or

187
00:11:36.399 --> 00:11:40.799
greed upon her something. It was just terribly, terribly overwhelming

188
00:11:40.840 --> 00:11:43.840
feeling a fair And then I'm talking of that right now,

189
00:11:44.720 --> 00:11:47.320
and I thought that, and I started to gather again

190
00:11:47.399 --> 00:11:49.600
that sense safe in my head was like you must

191
00:11:49.720 --> 00:11:52.879
leave right now, get out, go right now, go right now.

192
00:11:52.960 --> 00:11:56.279
It wasn't words, but it was a very powerful sensation.

193
00:11:57.240 --> 00:11:59.120
And so I kind of gathered my book. I didn't

194
00:11:59.159 --> 00:12:03.080
have anything with me but know, a butt storage, my

195
00:12:03.159 --> 00:12:05.679
cowel and the book, and it went down to get

196
00:12:05.679 --> 00:12:09.159
my you know, my grouped up friend and we kind

197
00:12:09.159 --> 00:12:11.120
of stirred off the beach and once we got back

198
00:12:11.159 --> 00:12:15.120
to the public area again a little bit south of there,

199
00:12:15.919 --> 00:12:18.600
it was like a button switched and all that anxiety

200
00:12:18.759 --> 00:12:22.639
completely shut off. I've never felt the way in my life.

201
00:12:22.879 --> 00:12:26.320
I have a bungee jumps, died given a few times,

202
00:12:26.919 --> 00:12:30.000
a few times. You know, I can't buy myself. I've

203
00:12:30.000 --> 00:12:31.960
been in the woods, like I have. I had moments

204
00:12:32.000 --> 00:12:35.919
where I'm like, oh that's a little freaky or exciting,

205
00:12:36.840 --> 00:12:41.639
but this was different. This was like terrifying, and I

206
00:12:41.720 --> 00:12:44.120
really again though I didn't think anything about Bigfoot at

207
00:12:44.159 --> 00:12:47.039
that Oh maybe it's a cougar or maybe there's a

208
00:12:47.080 --> 00:12:50.399
black bear, you know something, you know, some of the

209
00:12:50.480 --> 00:12:53.279
indigenous that is causing it. Except it was just it

210
00:12:53.360 --> 00:12:58.559
was still win my brain. Anyway, moving on, So this

211
00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:02.720
is the three things that personally involving. I lived in Portland, Oregon,

212
00:13:02.960 --> 00:13:05.480
and at the time I was bartending at a neighborhood bar.

213
00:13:06.240 --> 00:13:10.399
And maybe a month later, what in my regularly who

214
00:13:10.440 --> 00:13:15.120
I saw several times a week came in and he's

215
00:13:15.159 --> 00:13:18.799
a contractor and does remodeling, and I think he's specialty

216
00:13:18.960 --> 00:13:22.840
is tile work. I will not mention this name, but

217
00:13:23.480 --> 00:13:26.279
we had just opened the bar up and he was

218
00:13:26.320 --> 00:13:29.720
a little early, and the king he said, hey, maybe

219
00:13:29.759 --> 00:13:32.320
tonight I could grab a quick beer. I just I'm

220
00:13:32.360 --> 00:13:35.559
just posted. And I had a really weird time there

221
00:13:36.440 --> 00:13:40.279
and I said, yeah, of course, And I said, are

222
00:13:40.279 --> 00:13:41.799
you you know what's going on? Man? It'd be cool

223
00:13:41.919 --> 00:13:44.720
And he said, well I did that. That's a weird experience.

224
00:13:44.759 --> 00:13:48.159
My brother bought this bungalow, just this place called Archk

225
00:13:48.679 --> 00:13:52.200
and I was there giving some drywall and some tile work,

226
00:13:53.159 --> 00:13:56.720
and I only had, you know, the night either, so

227
00:13:56.799 --> 00:13:59.519
I had fans light set up so I could kind

228
00:13:59.519 --> 00:14:02.559
of finish the work, and he said, I don't know that.

229
00:14:02.600 --> 00:14:05.600
He I thought, the weird kids. But somebody whistled at me.

230
00:14:05.720 --> 00:14:10.480
And then somebody threw one of my fans, big industrial fans,

231
00:14:10.559 --> 00:14:13.120
off to the site, and then her kept turning my

232
00:14:13.200 --> 00:14:17.519
lights in a different direction, and I'm like, well, what

233
00:14:17.879 --> 00:14:20.159
do you mean were their kids there? He said, well,

234
00:14:20.159 --> 00:14:22.559
I don't know. I went out. I was pissed off

235
00:14:22.559 --> 00:14:24.960
and I went out to given peace of my mind,

236
00:14:25.039 --> 00:14:27.519
but there was no one there, and they came in

237
00:14:27.559 --> 00:14:30.120
and said everything back, and then the lights got moved again,

238
00:14:30.960 --> 00:14:33.519
and he said, I think of some pard of my

239
00:14:33.559 --> 00:14:37.559
word asking ghosts down there, you know, and was and

240
00:14:37.600 --> 00:14:41.240
this is like a blue collar, very non woo woo guy.

241
00:14:43.120 --> 00:14:46.240
And it's funny because I thought I didn't associate it. First.

242
00:14:46.480 --> 00:14:50.639
I thought, well, I said, you know, don't enjoy your view,

243
00:14:50.720 --> 00:14:53.639
don't sweat it. I'm sure it's nothing, and I thought,

244
00:14:53.720 --> 00:14:56.879
then I started thinking about getting scared off the beach,

245
00:14:57.679 --> 00:15:01.879
and then there's other incident and I got it while

246
00:15:01.879 --> 00:15:06.120
at the time I was also watching online. There wasn't.

247
00:15:06.159 --> 00:15:07.960
This is back again in the year is probably two

248
00:15:08.000 --> 00:15:11.879
thousand and six, two thousand and seven. That area. I

249
00:15:12.039 --> 00:15:17.519
was following the BFRO and organ Bigfit Society online and

250
00:15:17.600 --> 00:15:20.720
it was more for entertainment in all honesty, but I

251
00:15:20.759 --> 00:15:23.480
don't it was one of those two. I believe that

252
00:15:23.559 --> 00:15:27.919
we're doing a private investigation in that area around the

253
00:15:27.919 --> 00:15:29.960
same time. It wasn't when I was there, but it

254
00:15:30.000 --> 00:15:34.279
was within a few months, and I thought, did I

255
00:15:34.320 --> 00:15:38.279
have a big Foot encounter? Because it certainly, I mean,

256
00:15:38.279 --> 00:15:40.440
there's a lot of me that seemed like a lot

257
00:15:40.440 --> 00:15:45.840
of coincidences that fell into that realm or that dynamic

258
00:15:45.919 --> 00:15:51.200
rather of that period of time. So I really didn't

259
00:15:51.240 --> 00:15:54.480
think too much of it. One of my moving on

260
00:15:55.120 --> 00:15:58.399
still camping, One of my favorite camping spots is an

261
00:15:58.399 --> 00:16:01.559
area and the difforit pen Show Forest to set for

262
00:16:01.679 --> 00:16:05.759
Washugl in the Washington side of the Columbia by the

263
00:16:05.879 --> 00:16:10.159
I believe it's the Lewis River and outside of the

264
00:16:10.200 --> 00:16:15.080
small town of ya Coult, Washington, And nothing happened there.

265
00:16:15.200 --> 00:16:18.399
It's happening there, but beautiful and very remote. But then

266
00:16:18.440 --> 00:16:22.919
I started listening to that point in time, the Sasquatch chronicles,

267
00:16:23.279 --> 00:16:28.320
and I believe that the webmaster of that west I

268
00:16:28.320 --> 00:16:30.080
think it was seen as brother had incident and it

269
00:16:30.120 --> 00:16:33.720
was right in that vicinity. And then upon frigg of research,

270
00:16:33.879 --> 00:16:37.519
I found that you cult actually is Native American for

271
00:16:38.440 --> 00:16:42.799
evil spirit of the forest. And so all these things

272
00:16:42.919 --> 00:16:46.080
kind of made me freak out about because I used

273
00:16:46.080 --> 00:16:48.120
to can't buy myself a lot and do all this stuff.

274
00:16:48.840 --> 00:16:52.879
It's just all these things, so thinking is this around

275
00:16:52.879 --> 00:16:55.200
me all the time, and I just haven't really been

276
00:16:55.200 --> 00:16:57.840
privy to it or not, you know, astude enough to

277
00:16:57.879 --> 00:17:03.679
be alerted to it. Anyway, moving on, as work became

278
00:17:03.720 --> 00:17:07.640
more intense by bluster camping and all that kind of

279
00:17:07.640 --> 00:17:11.319
diminished in any time, but I did when were venture

280
00:17:11.359 --> 00:17:15.039
down to Archcape only because it's such it really is beautiful.

281
00:17:15.640 --> 00:17:17.759
Different friend brought down and said, oh, you've got to

282
00:17:17.759 --> 00:17:20.359
see this beach. Unfortunately, we got to the coast, the

283
00:17:20.359 --> 00:17:22.240
weather it wasn't very nice, which is often if not,

284
00:17:23.279 --> 00:17:25.160
and I got out of the car and we started

285
00:17:25.160 --> 00:17:27.039
to go down to that again. It was I believe

286
00:17:27.039 --> 00:17:30.440
it's Arkadie at that beach area, and I just thought,

287
00:17:30.599 --> 00:17:32.720
I don't want to be here. It was something about

288
00:17:32.720 --> 00:17:37.039
that experience I had the time before that completely freaked

289
00:17:37.160 --> 00:17:39.559
me out to go back again, and I will probably

290
00:17:39.640 --> 00:17:44.200
never be back again. AnyWho, those are my accounts.

291
00:17:44.759 --> 00:17:49.200
That's some extremely interesting stuff, JD. I mean, I've, as

292
00:17:49.240 --> 00:17:52.559
I said before, nothing has ever come up from that area.

293
00:17:52.799 --> 00:17:58.359
But just if you conbine everything together, there's some weird stuff.

294
00:17:58.440 --> 00:18:01.319
Well exactly, that's the thing is, honestly, Jeremiah. It was

295
00:18:01.400 --> 00:18:04.880
listening to your podcast and there's a few other select others.

296
00:18:04.920 --> 00:18:09.720
I like, just let people speak and their experiences because

297
00:18:09.720 --> 00:18:11.880
mine was not visual. Again, I didn't see anything. I

298
00:18:11.920 --> 00:18:15.240
didn't smell anything. There were some things that seemed a

299
00:18:15.240 --> 00:18:17.960
little you know, like the divots in the sand by

300
00:18:17.960 --> 00:18:21.400
the stack rocks, but I mean that could be anything.

301
00:18:21.680 --> 00:18:23.960
It's loose band. They were not They did not look

302
00:18:23.960 --> 00:18:28.039
like footprints, but they were big whatever they were. But

303
00:18:28.119 --> 00:18:31.039
again I didn't think, I mean as an enthusiast, I

304
00:18:31.039 --> 00:18:33.200
didn't think fit fit at all. I just thought, I

305
00:18:33.200 --> 00:18:35.640
don't know, I didn't think anything.

306
00:18:35.720 --> 00:18:43.279
I guess did your contractor friend, what did they describe?

307
00:18:43.759 --> 00:18:45.200
What kind of whistle it was?

308
00:18:47.079 --> 00:18:49.839
They said it sounded like some I think he thought

309
00:18:49.839 --> 00:18:52.319
it was some teenagers with him. Part of my friend Chigan.

310
00:18:53.839 --> 00:18:57.359
You know, I think, I don't think he's not this

311
00:18:57.400 --> 00:19:00.279
is this is a very blue collar gentleman who not

312
00:19:01.359 --> 00:19:06.559
you know, prone to fantastic, you know, wu supernatural stuff,

313
00:19:06.640 --> 00:19:10.000
I would think, but the humans shook up. It was very,

314
00:19:10.079 --> 00:19:13.400
very strict and it was amusing to me. And I

315
00:19:13.440 --> 00:19:15.720
did not mention to him my experience because I thought, well,

316
00:19:15.720 --> 00:19:18.799
he will just think I'm goofy as well, and I

317
00:19:18.799 --> 00:19:21.880
don't want to make him feel more awkward, you know,

318
00:19:22.119 --> 00:19:25.720
as a bartender. But it was just it only stuck

319
00:19:25.759 --> 00:19:28.039
in my head because at that well, I had some

320
00:19:28.079 --> 00:19:30.480
weird experiences there and it was I don't know exactly

321
00:19:30.480 --> 00:19:34.599
where his brother's house was for the bungalow was, but

322
00:19:34.640 --> 00:19:37.000
it sounds like it's right in that same arch. Take

323
00:19:37.119 --> 00:19:39.680
is not. It's lugging in a not really a town.

324
00:19:39.720 --> 00:19:43.559
It's just an area, and it's really forced it, you know,

325
00:19:44.039 --> 00:19:47.440
especially he was to what I understand that bungalow was

326
00:19:47.440 --> 00:19:51.839
on the side of one oh one, So that was

327
00:19:51.920 --> 00:19:57.480
the poor the written southes or developments in that region.

328
00:19:58.000 --> 00:20:00.359
And then again you go right back into the cascade.

329
00:20:01.279 --> 00:20:02.000
So I don't know.

330
00:20:04.559 --> 00:20:08.440
What year was this again that your year things happened.

331
00:20:10.039 --> 00:20:13.480
Well, it's been a while, but I believe it between

332
00:20:14.079 --> 00:20:16.440
I think it's two thousand and seven, two thousand and eight.

333
00:20:17.079 --> 00:20:23.759
Okay, gotcha. Did you ever do any research to see

334
00:20:23.920 --> 00:20:29.319
if other people on the internet anywhere had had experiences

335
00:20:29.440 --> 00:20:31.400
close to this area. I know you kind of mentioned

336
00:20:31.400 --> 00:20:36.240
the bfro or the well it was.

337
00:20:36.640 --> 00:20:40.519
I didn't because I didn't associate it being bigfoot necessarily.

338
00:20:41.279 --> 00:20:44.519
It was just odd. I thought, maybe, you know, the

339
00:20:44.720 --> 00:20:46.200
when I got scared off the beach, I thought it

340
00:20:46.279 --> 00:20:49.640
was a bear. It was a cougar. But again, there

341
00:20:49.680 --> 00:20:51.440
was just something different about it because it was in

342
00:20:51.480 --> 00:20:54.359
my brain. It was like something was speaking to my brain.

343
00:20:54.440 --> 00:20:57.079
I don't know how else to say it. And it

344
00:20:57.119 --> 00:21:01.079
was terrifying. I mean, it was really I mean when

345
00:21:01.119 --> 00:21:04.079
I again, I don't remember if I believe it was

346
00:21:04.079 --> 00:21:06.000
one of those two sites. We're doing an investigation of

347
00:21:06.119 --> 00:21:10.640
private in that area. I don't reach it sense they

348
00:21:10.680 --> 00:21:12.759
don't think they've had anywhere aboards in that area a

349
00:21:12.839 --> 00:21:16.559
big fitting to my knowledge, but I do know that

350
00:21:16.640 --> 00:21:21.480
the Coastal Range has had accounts. And again, growing up

351
00:21:21.480 --> 00:21:23.039
in the coast, even though I grew up in the

352
00:21:23.039 --> 00:21:25.799
Central Coast, which is much south of there. You know,

353
00:21:26.200 --> 00:21:28.839
you wouldn't talk about things like that. You know, my

354
00:21:29.680 --> 00:21:32.640
father didn't hunt. A family didn't hunt, eat fished a lot,

355
00:21:33.400 --> 00:21:35.279
and we, like I said, you know, kind of grew

356
00:21:35.319 --> 00:21:38.640
up playing in the woods, but you didn't talk about them.

357
00:21:39.559 --> 00:21:41.839
I mean, everyone was aware of it. It was the coast,

358
00:21:42.440 --> 00:21:44.519
it was you know, the seventies eighties when I grew

359
00:21:44.599 --> 00:21:48.880
up there. It was very apparent in lore, but no

360
00:21:48.920 --> 00:21:51.400
one discussed it. I mean that was just you look

361
00:21:51.440 --> 00:21:55.039
like an idiot if you did. And you know, thus,

362
00:21:55.079 --> 00:21:57.640
I get my reluctance to even comment on some of

363
00:21:57.680 --> 00:22:03.000
these moments because they could easily explained away individually, but collectively,

364
00:22:03.039 --> 00:22:05.200
I feel like, I don't know, there's something that just

365
00:22:05.480 --> 00:22:08.000
in my gut feels like I think there's something that

366
00:22:08.119 --> 00:22:10.960
was something going on at that moment. And if you've

367
00:22:11.000 --> 00:22:12.599
been there at all, if you've been to that area,

368
00:22:12.680 --> 00:22:15.559
it is at least at the time, it is gorgeous,

369
00:22:15.599 --> 00:22:18.160
but it is very remote. Even though you're close to

370
00:22:18.240 --> 00:22:23.680
some small town. Choice attracts and generally speaking, it's quite wild,

371
00:22:23.759 --> 00:22:26.920
you know, and there's it's I don't know, it just

372
00:22:27.000 --> 00:22:28.720
kind of I feel like. Also, there was a report

373
00:22:28.759 --> 00:22:32.200
I read from. I think it was in Gearhart, which

374
00:22:32.240 --> 00:22:36.799
is just south of the Washington border, and probably maybe

375
00:22:36.839 --> 00:22:39.519
twenty miles north of that area I'm speaking of where

376
00:22:39.519 --> 00:22:42.480
I feel like on I think it was the DFRO

377
00:22:43.000 --> 00:22:46.759
not Positive, where there was somebody out and they saw

378
00:22:46.799 --> 00:22:48.640
somebody looking like they were taking it for clams, but

379
00:22:48.680 --> 00:22:51.720
they were extremely tall. There were some tourists that was

380
00:22:51.759 --> 00:22:54.200
just walking the beach at night and when they in

381
00:22:54.240 --> 00:22:57.480
the again, the thing didn't run, but walked past them

382
00:22:57.559 --> 00:23:03.839
and they realized it was huge. So anyway, that's all

383
00:23:03.839 --> 00:23:04.319
I got here.

384
00:23:04.400 --> 00:23:07.400
Mayah, Yeah, it's it's it's interesting stuff and it helps

385
00:23:08.200 --> 00:23:11.440
kind of look into an area that we haven't before.

386
00:23:11.720 --> 00:23:15.480
So I say thank you so much. When you went

387
00:23:15.680 --> 00:23:20.880
back to your your home, did anything weird happen after that?

388
00:23:21.920 --> 00:23:26.319
You feel like you may have had stuff happen at Homeland. Yeah,

389
00:23:26.359 --> 00:23:28.160
after you left from ARCHK.

390
00:23:30.240 --> 00:23:33.440
No, I mean not, No, I don't. I don't believe.

391
00:23:33.440 --> 00:23:38.200
So again, when I sort of listened to I kind

392
00:23:38.200 --> 00:23:41.279
of went on the we'll call the Sasquatch bypass where

393
00:23:41.319 --> 00:23:44.160
I just didn't I just wasn't interested in hearing about

394
00:23:44.160 --> 00:23:46.559
that stuff. For a while, I got busy with work

395
00:23:46.599 --> 00:23:50.920
and focused on other things. And more recently, I had

396
00:23:50.960 --> 00:23:52.680
an injury where I had to end a job and

397
00:23:52.720 --> 00:23:54.240
I've been at home work and I staid listening to

398
00:23:54.279 --> 00:23:57.960
your podcast and a few others, and all those memories

399
00:23:57.960 --> 00:23:59.839
that came back very very strong, and they were in

400
00:23:59.839 --> 00:24:02.559
my dreams a lot, and it was very frightening in

401
00:24:02.599 --> 00:24:05.599
the dream. I mean, it was just a re iteration

402
00:24:06.200 --> 00:24:10.200
visually or you know, dream like as of what had happened,

403
00:24:10.200 --> 00:24:12.319
which again I didn't really pay a lot of credits

404
00:24:12.359 --> 00:24:15.759
to at the time, and tuckled it off because that, oh,

405
00:24:15.759 --> 00:24:17.720
it wasn't that funny. That sounds kind of big pooty.

406
00:24:19.079 --> 00:24:20.799
And then just as of late, I'm like, I think

407
00:24:20.799 --> 00:24:23.240
that was actually something. I think something was going on.

408
00:24:23.279 --> 00:24:25.519
I don't know what it was. Also, this is one

409
00:24:25.519 --> 00:24:28.400
thing I forgot this is I put this in an

410
00:24:28.400 --> 00:24:33.079
even lower category of relevance. But perhaps you know of

411
00:24:33.079 --> 00:24:38.440
interest is before I fell asleep at the campfire where

412
00:24:38.480 --> 00:24:40.519
I heard some with somebody jog right in front of me,

413
00:24:42.359 --> 00:24:45.480
my friend and I earlier there were all these lights

414
00:24:45.799 --> 00:24:48.279
along the coastline. Now I assume it was some kind

415
00:24:48.279 --> 00:24:51.720
of maybe like naval defense or some kind of like

416
00:24:52.359 --> 00:24:57.680
air plane maneuver thing, but they were doing all these

417
00:24:57.680 --> 00:25:03.119
weird triangular things. And oh, I don't know. I'm not

418
00:25:03.160 --> 00:25:06.400
a UFO fanatic at all, but I did think it

419
00:25:06.440 --> 00:25:08.960
was a little odd. But then again, I think that

420
00:25:09.960 --> 00:25:12.119
let's see where we're saying. If you go to Astoria,

421
00:25:12.119 --> 00:25:15.079
which is again not quite on the coast, but in

422
00:25:15.119 --> 00:25:17.440
the day of the Columbia, which is in north of

423
00:25:17.440 --> 00:25:21.160
where I think there's an army base up there, where

424
00:25:21.160 --> 00:25:24.200
there was an individual doing a routine that I think

425
00:25:24.200 --> 00:25:28.880
he saw three individual squatches about. So I mean, like,

426
00:25:28.960 --> 00:25:32.079
I don't all these things seem so unrelated, but when

427
00:25:32.079 --> 00:25:34.640
I speak of them together in my head at least,

428
00:25:34.640 --> 00:25:38.960
it's like there seems to be something somewhat tohesient about it.

429
00:25:40.200 --> 00:25:43.240
Absolutely, it is, just it's one of those things where

430
00:25:43.240 --> 00:25:46.119
it's just enough to make you think, like, wow, I

431
00:25:46.240 --> 00:25:50.839
bet other people have definitely experienced stuff in the same area.

432
00:25:51.079 --> 00:25:54.039
Well that's my thought. And you know, again, grown up

433
00:25:54.079 --> 00:25:56.920
the coast, you know, most people that have lived there,

434
00:25:57.119 --> 00:26:00.440
at least when I grew up, were you know, falty.

435
00:26:00.599 --> 00:26:04.440
But we didn't talk about stuff that was weird. You know,

436
00:26:04.480 --> 00:26:08.279
if there was like eachus in the household or economical

437
00:26:08.440 --> 00:26:11.359
troubles or things. It generally was not discussed. We didn't

438
00:26:11.359 --> 00:26:15.440
make that public and so anything remotely esoteric for you know,

439
00:26:15.839 --> 00:26:20.000
pertaining to anything supernatural slash payer normal, I'm you know,

440
00:26:20.000 --> 00:26:24.720
would only be scoffed at at best. But I don't know.

441
00:26:25.000 --> 00:26:27.319
I just I liked your podcast and I thought I'll

442
00:26:27.359 --> 00:26:30.200
throw this in and if it sticks cool. If not,

443
00:26:30.319 --> 00:26:34.599
I mean, it's no worry because it's nothing of great substance.

444
00:26:35.359 --> 00:26:39.440
But these are things that happened, you know, And I

445
00:26:39.480 --> 00:26:41.440
don't know, I'll just again, I'll leave it at.

446
00:26:41.319 --> 00:26:44.799
That, absolutely, and I think you definitely hit on something

447
00:26:44.839 --> 00:26:49.279
really important there that The way I look at it

448
00:26:49.319 --> 00:26:53.000
is it's one it's helping you share what you've experienced,

449
00:26:53.039 --> 00:26:57.079
but also it's making sure there's a documented record of

450
00:26:57.400 --> 00:27:01.000
whatever happened in a certain area, which could in turn

451
00:27:01.400 --> 00:27:04.720
help other people too that you know, maybe have never

452
00:27:04.799 --> 00:27:08.359
seen arch cape come up on a Bigfoot show. So

453
00:27:09.799 --> 00:27:13.440
that's why, you know, I am more than happy to

454
00:27:13.960 --> 00:27:19.279
talk to two people when they approach about really anywhere.

455
00:27:20.000 --> 00:27:21.920
But j D, I want to say thank you so

456
00:27:22.000 --> 00:27:25.839
much for coming on the show, for sharing what you experienced.

457
00:27:26.079 --> 00:27:32.319
Oh just yeah, everything, And I again that commentary is

458
00:27:32.319 --> 00:27:34.440
what kind of is what kind of tipped the kettle

459
00:27:35.240 --> 00:27:37.960
in my brain a bit because I thought, Okay, it's

460
00:27:38.000 --> 00:27:40.880
not just me, because I thought, you know, oh, I'm

461
00:27:40.880 --> 00:27:44.000
just being kooky and just you know, being you know,

462
00:27:44.839 --> 00:27:48.400
writing things together that probably were just stupid. But then

463
00:27:48.440 --> 00:27:51.039
with an outside opinion, and then also with that you

464
00:27:51.039 --> 00:27:53.279
know whoever was doing again I don't recall exact I

465
00:27:53.279 --> 00:27:56.559
think was row, I'm not positive we're doing an investigation there.

466
00:27:56.720 --> 00:27:59.839
That's when I was like, oh, this might this might

467
00:27:59.839 --> 00:28:00.880
be well.

468
00:28:01.400 --> 00:28:03.720
