In this episode, we delve into the extraordinary experiences of Mike, whose encounters span from the rugged wildfire zones of Southern Oregon to the wooded creek lines of Southern Maine. Growing up near one of the most well-known Bigfoot locations in the Pacific Northwest, Mike never gave the subject much thought—until a grueling 2011 fire season placed him deep in remote wilderness where he discovered a series of massive barefoot tracks pressed into thick redwood duff, miles from the nearest structure.

Years later, after relocating across the country, activity began unfolding behind his own home in Maine. What started as subtle disturbances soon escalated into whistling from the treeline, objects striking the house with force, unexplained silence in the surrounding woods, and an encounter involving glowing eyes that left a lasting impact. Multiple witnesses were present during key events, adding weight to what was experienced.

Mike’s background as a hunter and wildland firefighter gives his account a grounded, practical perspective shaped by years spent in unforgiving terrain. From firelines in the Emerald Triangle to quiet New England backyards, this episode explores how encounters can follow patterns across geography, terrain, and time.

Join us as we navigate Mike’s compelling journey and examine the presence that revealed itself in some of the most unexpected places.
