Russell Wiitala went looking for Bigfoot nearly 20 years ago. Eventually, something started answering back.
In this episode of Bigfoot Society, Russell takes us deep into his experiences across Washington and the Pacific Northwest, beginning with strange tracks, powerful odors, unexplained knocks, and vocalizations in the Willapa Hills.
Then the encounters get closer.
Russell describes a January 2025 trip to Ocean Shores, Washington, where he spotted a figure standing beside the road before daylight. When he and his friend returned to investigate, his friend saw a gray-haired figure attempting to hide among the trees in a swamp.
Russell also shares years of experiences throughout the Olympic Peninsula and Wynoochee area: long screams echoing across valleys, rocks striking tents, strange voices in the forest, possible juvenile Sasquatch activity, trees coming down, unexplained gifts, and something descending a ridge and entering his campsite while he listened from inside his tent.
Some of Russell’s later experiences move into even stranger territory. He describes possible cloaking, mind-speak, unusual dreams, unexplained physical sensations, and his belief that certain locations may play a role in Sasquatch activity.
After nearly two decades of searching across four states and more than 30 areas, Russell has developed a very different understanding of what may be living in these forests.
This is one of those Bigfoot Society conversations that keeps getting stranger the deeper it goes.
Listen through the end and decide for yourself what Russell encountered in the woods.
Locations discussed include Raymond, the Willapa Hills, Ocean Shores, Wynoochee, the Olympic Peninsula, Lake Cushman, Staircase, and other areas of the Pacific Northwest.
