In this episode of Bigfoot Society, you'll hear a collection of firsthand Bigfoot encounters from across North America. A witness from the mountains of West Virginia shares ongoing nighttime activity around his home, including whoops, grunts, eerie baby-like cries from the woods, and unexplained events that have left an entire community on edge. You'll also travel to Butte Falls, Oregon, where an experienced hunter recounts an encounter involving a powerful unexplained odor, fleeing wildlife, and a series of tree knocks believed to be communication between unseen creatures. Another listener revisits a terrifying 1989 camping trip north of Crater Lake, where heavy bipedal footsteps approached within feet of their campsite before disappearing into the darkness. Additional reports come from Shelby and Gaffney, where unusual tracks, six-fingered handprints, broken trees, and ongoing activity continue to raise questions, along with encounters from Discovery Bay, Port Townsend, and Floras Lake that include chilling screams, whoop exchanges, and a close nighttime encounter around a remote campsite. These are real people sharing experiences that have stayed with them for years. Listen all the way through and decide for yourself what may be waiting beyond the tree line. 📖 Follow Jeremiah's cancer health updates here: https://www.caringbridge.org/site/569ef3d3-68be-11f1-8790-97fdfd2bbc64 🗣️ Share Your Story Had a Bigfoot encounter or strange experience?

[0:12] Speaker 1: quiet farms and crowded highways. The stories come from everywhere,
[0:16] Speaker 1: and each one leaves us with more questions than answers.
[0:20] Speaker 1: These are the voices of the people who've lived it.
[0:24] Speaker 1: So settle in because today you'll hear another account that
[0:27] Speaker 1: just might change the way you see the woods forever.

[0:44] Speaker 1: it going.
[0:44] Speaker 2: Let me know.
[0:46] Speaker 1: We'll spend some time hanging out today and let me
[0:52] Speaker 1: know if you guys can hear me through my headphones.
[0:55] Speaker 1: Hope you guys are all having a good day. We'll
[0:57] Speaker 1: talk about hopefully some people have big foot encounters and
[1:01] Speaker 1: just have a good time. Hey, Damien, how are.
[1:03] Speaker 3: You all right? How are you doing tonight? Hey?
[1:08] Speaker 1: Just we're having a good time. Man, it's going on
[1:10] Speaker 1: man all right.
[1:13] Speaker 4: Living in West Virginia in the mountains, you we always
[1:17] Speaker 4: hear whoops and hollerings and everything else coming from the woods. Now,
[1:21] Speaker 4: we don't venture out into the woods after dark. I mean,
[1:24] Speaker 4: but even even my dog will not go outside after dark.
[1:31] Speaker 4: It is just not going to happen.
[1:36] Speaker 3: There.
[1:37] Speaker 4: You always get the strange feeling if you have to
[1:41] Speaker 4: go out, like on the porch, that you're always being watched.
[1:46] Speaker 3: And now, granted there are people that stay in.
[1:50] Speaker 4: The woods, but they even leave the woods when the
[1:54] Speaker 4: sun goes down.
[1:55] Speaker 3: They're not in there.
[1:57] Speaker 4: But yeah, you go out onto the front board and
[2:00] Speaker 4: you just feel like you're being watched.
[2:03] Speaker 3: So, I mean, it's literally one of those things. Now,
[2:09] Speaker 3: whether it could be.
[2:13] Speaker 4: A animal or a bigfoot, we don't know, you know.
[2:18] Speaker 4: But even my girlfriend I asked her one day. I
[2:20] Speaker 4: was like, hey, let's go walking in the woods at night.
[2:22] Speaker 4: She looked at me and she goes, you go out
[2:24] Speaker 4: that door, I will lock it on you when you
[2:27] Speaker 4: walk out.
[2:31] Speaker 3: It's good to know.
[2:32] Speaker 4: But I mean, it's crazy because as a truck driver,
[2:38] Speaker 4: we see strange things all the time. We hear strange
[2:43] Speaker 4: things all the time. When we're out someplace in the
[2:46] Speaker 4: middle of God's country nowhere, and you're like, I don't
[2:53] Speaker 4: know what that sound was. I don't want to know
[2:56] Speaker 4: what made that sound. How about you stay where you are.
[3:00] Speaker 4: I'll stay where I'm at, and we'll just leave it.
[3:02] Speaker 3: That.
[3:04] Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, that dude, that's wild. How has that been
[3:09] Speaker 1: happening recently?
[3:10] Speaker 4: Or I would say it started about a year and
[3:19] Speaker 4: a half ago, and it happens at least.
[3:27] Speaker 3: I would say once twice, maybe three times a week.
[3:34] Speaker 4: If we get home late at night, we will hear
[3:37] Speaker 4: grunting noises coming from the woods. We'll hear something whooping
[3:41] Speaker 4: and hollering, and it's like, yep, going inside.
[3:45] Speaker 3: There was one day we got home, it.
[3:48] Speaker 4: Was roughly about four o'clock in the afternoon, and my
[3:54] Speaker 4: girlfriend looked at me and she was like, will you
[3:58] Speaker 4: quit making noises.
[4:00] Speaker 3: I was like, I'm not making noises. She goes, well,
[4:03] Speaker 3: maybe maybe my daughter's here with the baby.
[4:06] Speaker 4: It's like, okay, So we started looking around and then
[4:09] Speaker 4: I heard what she was hearing. It literally sounded like
[4:12] Speaker 4: a baby crying from the woods. And at that point
[4:17] Speaker 4: where it was like nope, go inside, going in, and
[4:23] Speaker 4: she's we got inside, shut locked the door, and she goes,
[4:27] Speaker 4: I don't care if I have to go back out.
[4:31] Speaker 4: I'm not going back out the rest of the night.
[4:33] Speaker 4: It was like, yeah, I don't blame you. I mean,
[4:36] Speaker 4: there's no reason why we should be hearing baby cries
[4:40] Speaker 4: from the woods.
[4:42] Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a bad that's bad news. Usually you hear
[4:45] Speaker 1: that a lot from like southeast Alaska, where they use
[4:48] Speaker 1: it to try to or so it's they say up there,
[4:51] Speaker 1: they use it to try to lure people into the woods,
[4:53] Speaker 1: and so that's what stuff, man. But can you share,
[4:58] Speaker 1: and you don't have to get super specific, but like,
[5:01] Speaker 1: what part of West Virginia is this happening in?
[5:06] Speaker 4: I live just about i'd say forty five minutes north
[5:12] Speaker 4: of Charleston on I seventy nine, okay, And you know,
[5:18] Speaker 4: I don't know if maybe they're migrating down from Canada
[5:24] Speaker 4: or something, going through New York and all that and
[5:28] Speaker 4: coming down to head south or whatever. But I mean
[5:33] Speaker 4: it's like, guys, picked someplace you want to go, okay
[5:37] Speaker 4: and stay, you know, just stay where you're coming from.
[5:41] Speaker 4: We don't want you down here, we don't need you
[5:43] Speaker 4: down here. There's times at night that you'll start hearing
[5:50] Speaker 4: all that, and okay, people in the mountains, we'd take
[5:54] Speaker 4: our animals very seriously. And if it sounds like something
[5:59] Speaker 4: maybe trying to get to our animals, yeah we we
[6:05] Speaker 4: we are going to go out with pekeews and take
[6:08] Speaker 4: care of business. So you will hear those going off
[6:11] Speaker 4: at random times of the night, going into the woods,
[6:16] Speaker 4: and it's like, yep, somebody's just.
[6:20] Speaker 3: Trying to protect what they got, you know, and we
[6:24] Speaker 3: know it.
[6:24] Speaker 4: Like I said, we know it's not people, because you know,
[6:28] Speaker 4: everybody that lives up there in the mountains. A matter
[6:31] Speaker 4: of fact, anywhere around that whole Appalachian Mountain Range, people
[6:35] Speaker 4: don't go out after night.
[6:37] Speaker 3: There's a reason why, you know.
[6:40] Speaker 4: And so when all that started, was just like, well
[6:43] Speaker 4: that just confirms that we don't need to be going
[6:46] Speaker 4: out after dark at all.
[6:48] Speaker 3: Oh.
[6:49] Speaker 1: Absolutely. Have you ever talked to your neighbors to see
[6:51] Speaker 1: if they're experiencing things as well?
[6:54] Speaker 4: Oh yeah, everyone up there is experiencing stuff. And you know,
[6:59] Speaker 4: we actually had one one person that lives just down
[7:03] Speaker 4: the mountain from us. You know, they literally had one
[7:07] Speaker 4: of their dogs just unlive and it's like, yo, I know,
[7:14] Speaker 4: I don't think we have any big cats out here.
[7:18] Speaker 4: But you know, something was not happy with that with
[7:24] Speaker 4: that dog. Because she said she heard her dog barking
[7:31] Speaker 4: and she didn't think nothing of it. She thought maybe
[7:34] Speaker 4: someone was just coming up, you know, to our house
[7:37] Speaker 4: or stopping at her.
[7:39] Speaker 3: House or whatever.
[7:41] Speaker 4: And then she heard her dog screaming and basically screaming
[7:44] Speaker 4: and hollering and just stop. And she said when she
[7:49] Speaker 4: went out the next morning, there was love you TikTok
[7:54] Speaker 4: blood all over the place. And she's like, yeah, but
[8:00] Speaker 4: the animal was nowhere to be found at all. I
[8:04] Speaker 4: mean that that was the strangest part, is like, whatever
[8:08] Speaker 4: did it did it right there and just took the
[8:11] Speaker 4: animal with it. I was like, yeah, that that's that's
[8:16] Speaker 4: hardcore right.
[8:17] Speaker 1: There, It really is. I would be curious. I wonder
[8:22] Speaker 1: if it was up in the trees, you know.
[8:25] Speaker 3: You know, I've thought about that.
[8:28] Speaker 4: And in fact, I know, me, me and my girl
[8:32] Speaker 4: we went venturing in the woods one day and I
[8:35] Speaker 4: made the joke about, hey, maybe I should put on
[8:38] Speaker 4: like a gorilla outfit, you know, and hang out.
[8:41] Speaker 3: In the trees.
[8:42] Speaker 4: And she was like, probably not the best idea, you know.
[8:47] Speaker 4: And but after I said that, you know, it was
[8:51] Speaker 4: weird because even though the wind wasn't blowing, some of
[8:55] Speaker 4: the trees started moving, and it's like, oh, okay, maybe
[9:00] Speaker 4: we should get out of here. And when we have
[9:04] Speaker 4: walked through during the day, we've never seen any kind
[9:07] Speaker 4: of tree structures or anything else. So I mean, it's like,
[9:12] Speaker 4: are they hanging out in the trees while during it
[9:18] Speaker 4: while it's daytime and watching everybody, seeing what they're doing,
[9:22] Speaker 4: watching everybody's movements.
[9:25] Speaker 3: And it's one of those that makes you think about
[9:30] Speaker 3: what's going on.
[9:33] Speaker 1: Absolutely. The thing I hear a lot from West Virginia
[9:37] Speaker 1: is there's a big deal where if you hear whistling,
[9:42] Speaker 1: you could be in trouble or you never whistle back.
[9:45] Speaker 1: Have you ever heard anything about that?
[9:47] Speaker 3: Oh yes, oh yes.
[9:49] Speaker 4: One of my friends was doing a paranormal investigation up
[9:54] Speaker 4: in New York area and they were in the Appalachian
[10:00] Speaker 4: Mountains and you know, I told her, don't go into
[10:04] Speaker 4: the woods whistling at all, because you don't know what's
[10:08] Speaker 4: going to answer you back. And her boyfriend was standing
[10:14] Speaker 4: right next to her, and she's one of those she's
[10:16] Speaker 4: got to push boundaries, she she has to, and he
[10:21] Speaker 4: said that when she when they walked into the woods.
[10:24] Speaker 4: She immediately started whistling, and right when they right when
[10:30] Speaker 4: she started that, he said, the only way that he
[10:33] Speaker 4: could explain it was all the wind died, died down,
[10:38] Speaker 4: all the animals stopped.
[10:40] Speaker 3: You know, all the critters stopped moving around.
[10:43] Speaker 4: Because he said it was like one two o'clock in
[10:45] Speaker 4: the morning, and he said it sounded like a huge
[10:51] Speaker 4: boulder was crashing through the woods at them. And he said,
[10:56] Speaker 4: right when he heard that, he grabbed her by the
[10:59] Speaker 4: arm yanked her out of the woods. They went back
[11:02] Speaker 4: into the house. They never went back into the woods
[11:05] Speaker 4: that night.
[11:07] Speaker 3: And I looked at it.
[11:08] Speaker 4: I told him it's because she went into the woods
[11:12] Speaker 4: whistling and something was telling you guys, you were no
[11:17] Speaker 4: longer welcome there.
[11:20] Speaker 3: And I mean, that's something we don't I won't even do.
[11:24] Speaker 3: I mean, I have seen stuff in my lifetime.
[11:30] Speaker 4: I will not go into those woods in Whistle, anywhere
[11:34] Speaker 4: in those woods in Whistle, because I don't want to
[11:41] Speaker 4: have something coming at me going, yeah, you're no longer
[11:44] Speaker 4: welcome here. Your fixture be taken care of. So I mean,
[11:50] Speaker 4: maybe if you have a wish to see something and
[11:59] Speaker 4: not in joy that time.
[12:00] Speaker 3: Frame, I say go for it, but I won't I
[12:08] Speaker 3: enjoyed my life. I don't.
[12:10] Speaker 4: I don't want to be on the live by something
[12:12] Speaker 4: that can rip my own arms off and beat me
[12:15] Speaker 4: with them.
[12:16] Speaker 5: Oh.
[12:17] Speaker 1: Absolutely, I mean, you gotta. The thing I pick up
[12:20] Speaker 1: a lot from these areas, including West Virginia, is like,
[12:23] Speaker 1: you gotta be you gotta show respect to the nature
[12:26] Speaker 1: you're in, or you don't have too many chances, you know.
[12:30] Speaker 4: No, And you know, the one thing that people don't
[12:33] Speaker 4: understand is, yeah, the Rocky Mountains are nots you know,
[12:38] Speaker 4: and the mountains over on the West Coast or nas.
[12:43] Speaker 4: But the Appalachian Mountains are actually the oldest mountain range
[12:48] Speaker 4: in the U in the United States.
[12:50] Speaker 1: Mm hm.
[12:52] Speaker 4: And you know there's a reason why people do the
[12:57] Speaker 4: things they do in those mountains just so we.
[13:03] Speaker 3: Stay alive. You know.
[13:06] Speaker 4: We we re try to respect everything there, but at
[13:11] Speaker 4: the same time we're also going about it as if
[13:18] Speaker 4: you're going to disrespect something in those mountains and in
[13:21] Speaker 4: those woods, prepared to suffer the consequences.
[13:26] Speaker 1: Mm hm. Absolutely absolutely.
[13:31] Speaker 4: You know That's why when all this activity started a
[13:34] Speaker 4: year and a half ago at our place, it made
[13:38] Speaker 4: me wonder, are they coming down following the mountains from
[13:43] Speaker 4: Canada going down to like Kentucky or Tennessee or something
[13:47] Speaker 4: where it might be a little bit cooler or a
[13:52] Speaker 4: little bit warmer, more food. I don't know.
[13:56] Speaker 1: Right right, absolutely, I'll make goodness you are right in
[13:59] Speaker 1: a thick of it. Do you got to keep us
[14:01] Speaker 1: up to up to date if you can with stuff
[14:03] Speaker 1: that happens in the future.
[14:04] Speaker 4: Man, Oh yeah, because I mean, I know, I'm gonna
[14:08] Speaker 4: try to get some of the audio from up there.
[14:11] Speaker 4: I'll I'll see if i can put my phone out
[14:14] Speaker 4: there on the porch and just sit out there and
[14:18] Speaker 4: try to get it. But I mean, I if my
[14:22] Speaker 4: girl let me, you know, if she'll send it to me.
[14:26] Speaker 4: You know, there's other strange things that happen in those woods.
[14:30] Speaker 4: Like one night we were sitting at home. We're both
[14:33] Speaker 4: sitting on the bed talking. The ring doorbell camera went off,
[14:39] Speaker 4: so she's like, okay, maybe somebody's here.
[14:42] Speaker 3: She pulled it up on her phone. Nothing there.
[14:47] Speaker 4: Then the one on that we have on the back door,
[14:49] Speaker 4: it went off, like, well, maybe they went around the
[14:53] Speaker 4: back or something. Nothing there. The one on the front
[14:57] Speaker 4: door went off again, and only this time whatever said
[15:04] Speaker 4: it off literally said hey in her voice.
[15:11] Speaker 3: And at that moment I looked at her.
[15:13] Speaker 4: I said, either you got really good at throwing your
[15:17] Speaker 4: voice or something is trying to lure us outside.
[15:25] Speaker 3: Oh my goodness, that's and we.
[15:28] Speaker 4: Both went to bed at that time. It was like, Nope, nope,
[15:31] Speaker 4: it's time for bad. And you know, I've always had
[15:36] Speaker 4: this one weird theory about you know, Bigfoot, because every
[15:42] Speaker 4: time somebody has a sighting or something, you always hear
[15:49] Speaker 4: that at that moment that there's stuff in the sky
[15:55] Speaker 4: that they cannot explain going over. And I'm wondering if
[16:01] Speaker 4: maybe he is not from this plant or from this
[16:08] Speaker 4: dimension even you know, maybe that's why he could be
[16:12] Speaker 4: there one minute and going the next.
[16:17] Speaker 1: I mean, it's one of those things where like there,
[16:20] Speaker 1: I don't think there's any any wrong answers yet, but
[16:23] Speaker 1: I mean, you hear these stories, especially southwest Pennsylvania where
[16:27] Speaker 1: you know, you got the UFO sidings and the Bigfoot
[16:29] Speaker 1: sightings happening, you know, right right close proximity, and uh,
[16:35] Speaker 1: it's just it's it's some wild, wild stuff. But Damian,
[16:39] Speaker 1: I appreciate you coming up and sharing what you're dealing
[16:41] Speaker 1: with down there in West Virginia, and please keep us
[16:44] Speaker 1: in the loop with what what you got going on.
[16:47] Speaker 1: You can if you do get audio, I would love
[16:49] Speaker 1: to hear. I have an email. It's big for society
[16:52] Speaker 1: at gmail dot com if you do get something, and yeah,
[16:56] Speaker 1: I would love to hear it. But thank you so
[16:58] Speaker 1: much for coming up, man.
[16:59] Speaker 4: Oh yeah, you're welcome, man, And as soon as I
[17:02] Speaker 4: get it, I will definitely send it to you.
[17:05] Speaker 1: All right, sir, Well, I hope you're able to hang out,
[17:08] Speaker 1: but I'm gonna check in with some other people and
[17:10] Speaker 1: thank you man.
[17:11] Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I'll stay down in the basement. That way
[17:14] Speaker 4: you can check with other people.
[17:17] Speaker 1: So all right, good good stuff, My goodness, he's he's
[17:24] Speaker 1: got some wild stuff going on. Let's see. I am
[17:28] Speaker 1: going to check in. We've got a few people wanting
[17:32] Speaker 1: to come up now, so let's see what.
[17:34] Speaker 2: We got here.
[17:34] Speaker 1: Oh hey, eagalize, how's it going?
[17:39] Speaker 6: Hello?
[17:41] Speaker 5: Good?
[17:42] Speaker 1: How are you hey doing good?
[17:44] Speaker 3: Man?
[17:45] Speaker 1: I'm glad you were able to come up of it. Yes, yes,
[17:47] Speaker 1: can you hear me, sir?
[17:52] Speaker 7: Oh?
[17:52] Speaker 1: I think I think.
[17:55] Speaker 8: Okay, yeah, perfect, and yeah it kicked me out and
[18:02] Speaker 8: somebody on the live.
[18:05] Speaker 5: I clicked on it.
[18:06] Speaker 8: It took me to a different sasquatch site and he
[18:09] Speaker 8: was able to get me back. So I lived in
[18:13] Speaker 8: Oregon for twenty some years and did a lot of
[18:19] Speaker 8: hunting and fishing. So my experiences is centralized around Butte Falls, Oregon.
[18:27] Speaker 5: You know where that's at.
[18:30] Speaker 1: I'm looking it up. Let's see Butte Falls. Yes, Yes,
[18:35] Speaker 1: that's over by just outside of Medford kind of. It's
[18:39] Speaker 1: like northeast of Medford.
[18:42] Speaker 8: Yeah, there's Medford, then there's Center Point, then there's Eagle Point,
[18:47] Speaker 8: and then that area. So I've been hunting in that
[18:53] Speaker 8: area for twenty plus years. And I get up there
[19:01] Speaker 8: and one day in the afternoon, just so you know
[19:06] Speaker 8: what I was carrying.
[19:08] Speaker 5: I was carrying a.
[19:11] Speaker 8: Bone arrow and my pistol, and I got up into
[19:17] Speaker 8: the woods. I got to my normal hunting spot and
[19:25] Speaker 8: sat down on my log. But prior to getting there,
[19:33] Speaker 8: I got out of the truck and immediately was overcome
[19:36] Speaker 8: by a smell. It was enough that it burned my
[19:40] Speaker 8: nose and made my eyes water a little bit. So
[19:47] Speaker 8: I get back down to my stomach and I'm sitting
[19:51] Speaker 8: there and out in this opening there's about i'd say
[19:56] Speaker 8: eight or ten score out there playing around now, This
[20:03] Speaker 8: is about a mile and a half from where I.
[20:06] Speaker 5: I smelt the smell, so probably.
[20:12] Speaker 8: I would say thirty minutes, all the squirrels just start
[20:17] Speaker 8: standing and right across this field, all of them, and
[20:24] Speaker 8: up over over the hill and disappear.
[20:27] Speaker 5: Now, normally squirrels, when they're startled or in danger.
[20:36] Speaker 8: Will hop up a tree, and I felt that that
[20:41] Speaker 8: was a little peculiar, but yeah, probably, I would say
[20:47] Speaker 8: within the next five minutes, probably twenty five yards in
[20:52] Speaker 8: the thicket, I hear three big bangs on a tree.
[20:57] Speaker 8: This gets my attention and the hair in the back
[21:01] Speaker 8: of my neck stands up, and shortly within a minute
[21:08] Speaker 8: or two, I hear a quick succession of bangs to
[21:12] Speaker 8: my left.
[21:14] Speaker 5: Probably one hundred yards or more away.
[21:17] Speaker 8: Now this goes on for about three or four times
[21:21] Speaker 8: and then just completely stop, and I'm like, okay, well,
[21:30] Speaker 8: now I'm really concerned. I'm getting a little nervous. Just
[21:37] Speaker 8: so you know the background, I've been in the woods
[21:39] Speaker 8: all my life. I've had bear cougars, I've had bear
[21:42] Speaker 8: within five inches of me, and never was afraid or
[21:49] Speaker 8: scared of anything.
[21:51] Speaker 5: But this got my attention.
[21:53] Speaker 8: At this point, I put my bow back up over
[21:57] Speaker 8: my shoulder, I withdraw my pistol, I lock and low it,
[22:01] Speaker 8: and I walked backwards for a mile and a half
[22:05] Speaker 8: back to my truck. When I get back to my truck,
[22:10] Speaker 8: that smells no longer there. And I'm like, hmm, I'm
[22:16] Speaker 8: wondering if this is a bigfoot experience.
[22:21] Speaker 5: Now, if you're familiar with Oregon.
[22:23] Speaker 8: In California, there's the Sasquatch Museum and everything down in California.
[22:32] Speaker 8: So I drive down there. I meet the gentleman there.
[22:36] Speaker 8: He looks at me, he asks, let me guess, and
[22:40] Speaker 8: he threw just a few things out at me, and
[22:43] Speaker 8: I just kind of was like, very startled. He said, yes,
[22:46] Speaker 8: you were very very close to a Sasquatch and there
[22:52] Speaker 8: they were communicating with each other.
[22:55] Speaker 5: And I said communicating. He said, yes, I've heard.
[22:58] Speaker 8: Hundreds and hundreds of store and it's the three bangs
[23:02] Speaker 8: follow but four or five quick bangs, and this goes
[23:07] Speaker 8: on two or three times and then just stops. And
[23:10] Speaker 8: basically all they're doing is communicating with each other.
[23:14] Speaker 9: Don't know what, but that is what they're doing. So
[23:24] Speaker 9: I leave, I go home.
[23:27] Speaker 8: I'm kind of bewiltered, and I pondered on it. For
[23:35] Speaker 8: weeks and weeks really didn't say anything to anybody. So
[23:40] Speaker 8: me and another buddy of mine went back up there
[23:44] Speaker 8: a week later. We walked around. There was nothing dead.
[23:49] Speaker 8: This smell wasn't there. We walked all the way around
[23:54] Speaker 8: it was. It's a very thick area where I hunt
[23:58] Speaker 8: at with a little swampiness in there.
[24:01] Speaker 5: Didn't find any prints or anything like that.
[24:08] Speaker 8: But we walked probably a good square mile around that
[24:14] Speaker 8: area to see if we could see anything and basically
[24:20] Speaker 8: came up with nothing. So I know this was a
[24:24] Speaker 8: big big foot encounter. I mean, all my years in
[24:27] Speaker 8: the woods have never encountered anything that's ever made me fearful.
[24:33] Speaker 8: So that's my kind of crazy story.
[24:38] Speaker 1: That's wild. I've actually talked to another gentleman that had
[24:43] Speaker 1: a really interesting experience around that area Butte Falls. They
[24:48] Speaker 1: had a really really cool, really good thermal sighting when
[24:55] Speaker 1: he was out with his He had a wolf hybrid
[24:58] Speaker 1: and the wolf hybrid started freaking out and then they
[25:01] Speaker 1: saw a figure stepping out from behind a tree and
[25:05] Speaker 1: retreating through their thermal scope. That was in beautifuls back
[25:10] Speaker 1: in summer of twenty twenty five. So wild wild stuff.
[25:16] Speaker 5: Yeah, this was prior to twenty twenty five.
[25:18] Speaker 8: This was probably I want to say this was two
[25:24] Speaker 8: thousand and seven. Okay when this went on and prior
[25:32] Speaker 8: to this, I'm going to add it. Can I add
[25:35] Speaker 8: a little more?
[25:36] Speaker 1: Yeah? Absolutely?
[25:39] Speaker 5: Yeah. Okay. So growing up at twelve years old, I
[25:45] Speaker 5: had an uncle who.
[25:48] Speaker 8: Didn't wouldn't believe anything if he couldn't touch it, taste it,
[25:55] Speaker 8: or see it physically with his own eyes. Now this
[26:00] Speaker 8: is in the seventies, and he had taken a trip
[26:04] Speaker 8: to Idaho and they were out on this little tory
[26:09] Speaker 8: boat that.
[26:11] Speaker 5: Sing one around the big late. I don't I can't.
[26:14] Speaker 8: I don't even remember what lake or we're at in
[26:18] Speaker 8: in Idaho he was, but he came over the house.
[26:22] Speaker 8: He was quite upset. He had some pictures that he
[26:27] Speaker 8: just had developed.
[26:28] Speaker 5: We didn't have the.
[26:29] Speaker 8: Digital in those days, so you couldn't just send them,
[26:33] Speaker 8: and it was it was taken with a with one
[26:35] Speaker 8: of those little one tents, and he goes to his stories.
[26:40] Speaker 8: As we were driving along and we looked over at
[26:42] Speaker 8: the shore and we.
[26:43] Speaker 5: Saw a big log saw at that.
[26:50] Speaker 8: The fact bear, and the captain was like, oh, maybe
[26:55] Speaker 8: we can get a little bit closer, but I don't
[26:57] Speaker 8: want to disturb nature.
[27:00] Speaker 5: At that point, everybody in.
[27:02] Speaker 8: The boat got really nervous and told the captain not
[27:06] Speaker 8: to and he's like why, and they're like, look, well,
[27:08] Speaker 8: now the black bear is standing on it. It's hind legs,
[27:12] Speaker 8: per se. Everybody's taking pictures. And a second later they
[27:22] Speaker 8: everybody's like at all this scene, picks up probably a
[27:25] Speaker 8: ten foot by three foot round log off the ground
[27:30] Speaker 8: and puts it on his shoulders and then quarters away
[27:33] Speaker 8: into the woods. And the captain of the boat was
[27:38] Speaker 8: so shook up that if he said, if you ever
[27:41] Speaker 8: mention this or anything about this, I will completely deny
[27:45] Speaker 8: it because it's not.
[27:48] Speaker 5: I didn't see anything. So then my uncle.
[27:51] Speaker 8: Goes to they're really green. They were really greening pictures.
[27:56] Speaker 8: But you can see what what they thought was a
[27:59] Speaker 8: black bear. And then you can see this thing with
[28:01] Speaker 8: a log on its shoulder walking into the woods.
[28:06] Speaker 5: Wow.
[28:08] Speaker 8: My uncle from there on out was a firm believer
[28:11] Speaker 8: in bigfoot because he said I saw it. I saw it,
[28:16] Speaker 8: and I was like, oh my gosh, really and he
[28:18] Speaker 8: goes he goes, yes, and this is a person. I
[28:23] Speaker 8: can lay my hand on a stack of bibles that
[28:25] Speaker 8: if again, if you can't touch it, tasted or see it,
[28:28] Speaker 8: would not believe in it. So yeah, so that was,
[28:33] Speaker 8: you know, quite the experience. I've never had anything else
[28:40] Speaker 8: in my fifty plus years in the woods to compare
[28:46] Speaker 8: to this. Even the gentleman down there at the Bigfoot
[28:53] Speaker 8: Museum in California, when I described everything to him, he
[28:58] Speaker 8: was like, he was, you know, expited. He goes, yeah,
[29:03] Speaker 8: that is big foot experience and explain me and I
[29:09] Speaker 8: have the speed.
[29:11] Speaker 5: All and everything.
[29:14] Speaker 3: It was.
[29:15] Speaker 8: It was quite enlightening, I think for for me, I
[29:21] Speaker 8: think a bigfoot.
[29:23] Speaker 5: Bigfoots have a very.
[29:27] Speaker 8: Sense of their surroundings and an acute smell, so they
[29:32] Speaker 8: it doesn't matter if you're masking yourself or whatever when
[29:35] Speaker 8: you're in there, you know, going back and reviewing but
[29:41] Speaker 8: sightings and reading everything they did, and a lot of
[29:44] Speaker 8: times in the in most sightings, not everyone everybody comes
[29:51] Speaker 8: up on a big foot and they've startled it, so
[29:53] Speaker 8: the bigfoot hasn't had a chance to physically get out
[29:58] Speaker 8: of the location as quickly as it possibly can. But
[30:03] Speaker 8: to this day, and even back in the seventies, I
[30:06] Speaker 8: believed in Bigfoot and nobody can can tell me any different.
[30:13] Speaker 5: Because of what I've heard, seen and experienced.
[30:18] Speaker 1: So that's that's what a fantastic in Texas. There you go,
[30:25] Speaker 1: there is some there's some bigfoot stuff that happens, and
[30:27] Speaker 1: in southeast and northeast Texas for sure. Thank you for
[30:31] Speaker 1: coming up, sir. I appreciate you sharing your account.
[30:36] Speaker 5: You're very welcome.
[30:38] Speaker 8: Hopefully this will help people to believe in, understand and
[30:42] Speaker 8: maybe jog some of their memories if they've been in
[30:45] Speaker 8: a weird experience that they couldn't explain anything that was
[30:48] Speaker 8: like off the wall.
[30:50] Speaker 10: So Hi, good morning. Let's see.
[30:56] Speaker 6: I have a story from back in nineteen eighty nine.
[31:02] Speaker 6: I was very I was young. I was I think
[31:04] Speaker 6: I was maybe seventeen years old, and I was with
[31:06] Speaker 6: a friend. I live on the I grew up on
[31:10] Speaker 6: the East Coast, but I met a gal on a
[31:15] Speaker 6: backpacking trip who lived on the West coast in California,
[31:19] Speaker 6: and together when we were seventeen, we drove up from
[31:25] Speaker 6: California up into Oregon to just to go on a
[31:31] Speaker 6: road trip and you know, see the country. And so
[31:38] Speaker 6: this one night we had gone to Crater Lake during
[31:41] Speaker 6: the day to visit Crater Lake and then we left.
[31:44] Speaker 6: I can't remember what time of day we left Crater Lake,
[31:47] Speaker 6: but it would have been toward the end of the day,
[31:50] Speaker 6: before dark, and we were driving.
[31:55] Speaker 10: We drove north of there.
[31:57] Speaker 6: We were somewhere in Oregon, north of Crater Lake, and
[32:00] Speaker 6: I know at one point we were going to east
[32:03] Speaker 6: because we'd been driving for a while and I could
[32:06] Speaker 6: see the full moon was rising up between two big,
[32:10] Speaker 6: kind of like pine trees in the road dead ahead
[32:14] Speaker 6: of us.
[32:15] Speaker 10: Shortly after that.
[32:17] Speaker 6: We stopped at a campground because we wanted to, you know,
[32:20] Speaker 6: camp out for the night, and there was nobody in
[32:24] Speaker 6: that campground. And as I recall, it was like a
[32:26] Speaker 6: state camp type of campground, you know where you leave
[32:30] Speaker 6: your money in the little box in the front. There
[32:34] Speaker 6: was nobody in that campground, and that kind of creeped
[32:36] Speaker 6: us out a little bit, so we decided to continue on.
[32:40] Speaker 6: We drove for maybe another fifteen to twenty minutes, maybe less,
[32:45] Speaker 6: not sure, got to another campground and we were heading
[32:50] Speaker 6: east and we were taking lefts into these campgrounds. I
[32:53] Speaker 6: do remember that anyway, we got into this campground, we
[32:56] Speaker 6: drove way down into the back. There was one person
[32:58] Speaker 6: there at the beginning. It might have been like the camp.
[33:02] Speaker 10: Host.
[33:02] Speaker 6: I'm not sure, but there was one car. In the
[33:04] Speaker 6: very beginning. We drove way down into the back and
[33:07] Speaker 6: I remember we were like there were there was like
[33:10] Speaker 6: where we decided to camp. It was like little camping
[33:14] Speaker 6: spots that you picked, and I remember there was it
[33:18] Speaker 6: was wooded and like kind of like it went up
[33:21] Speaker 6: a hill in front of us. Anyway, we threw down
[33:27] Speaker 6: our tarp. We didn't have a tent or anything. We
[33:29] Speaker 6: just threw our sleeping bags down on a tarp and
[33:32] Speaker 6: we were awake, like writing in our journals and chatting for.
[33:35] Speaker 10: A little bit, and then.
[33:38] Speaker 6: We decided to go sleep, turned off the flashlight, and
[33:43] Speaker 6: it was not long after that when suddenly something just
[33:47] Speaker 6: came stomping through the campground. Came from the left, like
[33:54] Speaker 6: it was walking along the tree line, and like when
[33:57] Speaker 6: why I say stomping. It was so obviously on two feet,
[34:00] Speaker 6: heavy footed, you know, caden like rhythmic stomp, stomp, stomp,
[34:07] Speaker 6: you know, it was so obvious that it was on
[34:09] Speaker 6: two feet, so loud and heavy footed, came along and stopped.
[34:18] Speaker 6: I think maybe no more than twenty feet away.
[34:22] Speaker 10: If that.
[34:25] Speaker 6: It was must have been pretty heavily wooded in there,
[34:27] Speaker 6: because I could not see what this was. And I
[34:31] Speaker 6: wanted so badly to turn on my flashlight and see
[34:34] Speaker 6: what it was, but I was no way was I
[34:36] Speaker 6: going to do that.
[34:37] Speaker 10: I was just kind of terrified and just frozen. I
[34:41] Speaker 10: didn't want to move.
[34:44] Speaker 6: So previous to that, I always whenever I tell friends
[34:49] Speaker 6: or family the story, I forget the part before we
[34:53] Speaker 6: turned off the flashlight and went to sleep, we had
[34:55] Speaker 6: heard what I described at.
[34:56] Speaker 10: The time as howling coming from that wooded area.
[35:03] Speaker 6: And two, I don't know what that sound sounded like, unfortunately,
[35:10] Speaker 6: because but I do know that specifically used the word howling,
[35:15] Speaker 6: and we just thought it was like, I don't know,
[35:16] Speaker 6: maybe some coyotes in there. It did not scare us.
[35:22] Speaker 6: So but then after this thing came up, it came up,
[35:26] Speaker 6: it stopped, like I said, like maybe twenty feet away.
[35:30] Speaker 6: I'm frozen, not wanting to move. I think I'm running
[35:34] Speaker 6: out of time here, so let me stop this now.
[35:39] Speaker 6: It's a good time to stop, I think, and Rea,
[35:42] Speaker 6: and send you another one for the next part.
[35:45] Speaker 10: Another voice for the next part.
[35:49] Speaker 6: Hi again, So this is part two. Hopefully I can
[35:53] Speaker 6: get through this in the next five minutes. So basically,
[35:57] Speaker 6: I think where I left off. We had heard the howling,
[36:01] Speaker 6: turned off the flashlight. This thing came stomping along.
[36:04] Speaker 10: It stopped.
[36:05] Speaker 6: Now, like I had said, we weren't afraid of the
[36:09] Speaker 6: howling when we first heard it. But this thing came
[36:11] Speaker 6: stomping along stopped. And then instead of like I had said,
[36:18] Speaker 6: I was like laying there, kind of like frozen, terrified.
[36:21] Speaker 10: It did not stomp away. It stood there. It was
[36:25] Speaker 10: stood there. It walked up.
[36:26] Speaker 6: It stood there about twenty feet away. I don't know,
[36:28] Speaker 6: maybe for twenty seconds, that's kind of a guess.
[36:31] Speaker 10: But it stood there for a few.
[36:32] Speaker 6: Moments, and then I could hear that thing creeping away
[36:37] Speaker 6: up through those trees.
[36:38] Speaker 10: As if it was tiptoeing.
[36:40] Speaker 6: So all I could hear was little twigs breaking as
[36:44] Speaker 6: it was retreating, and it blew my mind. I'm like,
[36:47] Speaker 6: this thing just stomped up and now it is just
[36:51] Speaker 6: making the quietest little sound as it retreats, as if
[36:54] Speaker 6: it knew that I was aware of it and wanted
[36:57] Speaker 6: to wanted to leave, very very quietly. So at that
[37:03] Speaker 6: point I whispered to my friend. When I felt like
[37:06] Speaker 6: I had like retreated a bit, I whispered to my friend.
[37:09] Speaker 6: I said, did you hear that, and she's like, huh.
[37:13] Speaker 6: She was had been sleeping through it, and she woke
[37:16] Speaker 6: up and she said, no, I didn't hear anything. And
[37:18] Speaker 6: I told her what had happened, and I said, something
[37:21] Speaker 6: just stopped through our campground. And suddenly we hear the
[37:25] Speaker 6: howling again, and this time it's closer, much closer, and
[37:30] Speaker 6: there were multiple howls, like one and then another and
[37:35] Speaker 6: then another, and at that point we both said, okay,
[37:39] Speaker 6: let's get out of here, and we counted to three
[37:42] Speaker 6: and we high tailed it out of there in like
[37:46] Speaker 6: pure terror at every moment, any moment, thinking this thing
[37:49] Speaker 6: was going to jump out. I mean, we were grabbing,
[37:52] Speaker 6: like just grabbed everything and one fell swoop and just
[37:55] Speaker 6: stuffing it into the jeep and like I'm climbing, like
[37:58] Speaker 6: we're literally leaving the campground with me like in the
[38:00] Speaker 6: passenger seat on top of all of our stuff, because
[38:04] Speaker 6: there was no time we were so scared to like properly,
[38:07] Speaker 6: you know, get our stuff packed in there.
[38:09] Speaker 10: So it was pretty hilarious and scary, really scary at
[38:13] Speaker 10: the same time.
[38:14] Speaker 6: So we left there and it was just, I will
[38:18] Speaker 6: say the night just felt like otherworldly. She was driving.
[38:25] Speaker 6: We just kept heading west toward Idaho. I'm sorry, east
[38:28] Speaker 6: toward Idaho. And it was just just the night just
[38:34] Speaker 6: felt so magical, and we weren't even speaking. We didn't
[38:39] Speaker 6: even really talk about it. I was just in shock
[38:41] Speaker 6: at what had just happened. And I did think of Bigfoot.
[38:45] Speaker 6: Now I'm looking up at the sky. There's like this,
[38:48] Speaker 6: this moon and these the clouds were just forming all
[38:51] Speaker 6: these shapes, and I'm I'm looking at the clouds. They're
[38:55] Speaker 6: forming the shape of a Native American chief's head. Therefore
[39:00] Speaker 6: me one was literally a Bigfoot in the sky, was
[39:04] Speaker 6: formed in the cloud. I know that all sounds really weird,
[39:07] Speaker 6: but this happened, and all my girlfriends, said, my friends,
[39:11] Speaker 6: she would like, we're dead silent, not even talking, and
[39:14] Speaker 6: she just kind of like leaned forward and looked up
[39:16] Speaker 6: toward the sky and said, whoa, there are some really
[39:20] Speaker 6: you know, like crazy things up in the sky right now.
[39:23] Speaker 10: And I don't And that was it. We didn't even speak.
[39:25] Speaker 6: We were just both kind of just kind of I
[39:30] Speaker 6: don't know, like just in shock and in this weird
[39:35] Speaker 6: kind of otherworldly place and I don't know how else
[39:37] Speaker 6: to describe it.
[39:40] Speaker 10: That's it, And yeah, that's it. So thanks for.
[39:46] Speaker 6: Letting me share, Take care, and thanks for your podcast
[39:50] Speaker 6: because it's it's really awesome.
[39:54] Speaker 7: Hey Jeremiah, it's Dan from Shelby and Gaffney earlier area. Again. Yeah,
[40:02] Speaker 7: so continuing from like when we last spoke, Uh, the
[40:11] Speaker 7: the ones in Gaffney were on a dead end street.
[40:18] Speaker 7: It was abandoned, and years ago me and my brother
[40:23] Speaker 7: were looking at a property in Shelby to buy, which
[40:27] Speaker 7: was also on a dead end street, abandoned, And so
[40:32] Speaker 7: I went behind my neighborhood across the tracks to the
[40:37] Speaker 7: storage unit and they were trying to build there. They're
[40:40] Speaker 7: in the process of trying to build other storage units.
[40:43] Speaker 7: And the dirt that surveyed over there had tracks in
[40:46] Speaker 7: it and handprints. The handprints have six fingers, so I
[40:50] Speaker 7: usually see five toes and then all the handprints I've
[40:53] Speaker 7: seen so far have six fingers. Uh, five fingers and
[40:57] Speaker 7: a thumb uh. Anyway, Uh, so we I tracked it
[41:02] Speaker 7: through that dirt across the street, through a farm back
[41:06] Speaker 7: through the woodline behind on the other side of the
[41:09] Speaker 7: farm field with looks like it's like spinach greens or
[41:12] Speaker 7: some kind of some kind of green low crop. Anyway,
[41:17] Speaker 7: went back to past the forest line, followed it all
[41:21] Speaker 7: the way to this ranch that's across the street from
[41:24] Speaker 7: the abandoned street that that that has the dead end,
[41:31] Speaker 7: and when I got to that street, it was just
[41:35] Speaker 7: covered in broken trees. Trees that two trees that were
[41:40] Speaker 7: busted out towards the road, but their tops were knocked off,
[41:42] Speaker 7: so it looks like it like smashed them outward towards
[41:47] Speaker 7: the towards the street, and they were like, uh, smashed
[41:51] Speaker 7: out towards the street diagonal and then also smashed out
[41:55] Speaker 7: outward from each other, and then looks like the tops
[41:59] Speaker 7: were ripped off too. And then there was a bunch
[42:03] Speaker 7: of other stick formations block pass beaten in paths leading
[42:09] Speaker 7: to some of the abandoned houses. And and then that
[42:15] Speaker 7: brings me to like, recently, I've been seeing these videos
[42:18] Speaker 7: of these things in the trees that people were calling
[42:22] Speaker 7: the squatches, And last night my neighbor's tree in the
[42:28] Speaker 7: woods behind my house off to the right cracked off
[42:33] Speaker 7: and came down. And then after that I heard like
[42:37] Speaker 7: a stick walking away from it in the woods on
[42:40] Speaker 7: my side, and then the neighbors came out and were
[42:43] Speaker 7: wondering what was happening because there was no wind, and
[42:47] Speaker 7: I was like quietly whispering of video talking about how
[42:50] Speaker 7: it was the squatch that did it. And I was
[42:53] Speaker 7: sitting on the back porch. Again this was This wasn't
[42:55] Speaker 7: even dark at this point. This was right at dusk.
[42:58] Speaker 7: So anyway, I think that's updates. Oh yeah, and it's
[43:02] Speaker 7: been coming up to my trailer at night and pressing
[43:04] Speaker 7: on the pop out where I sit and watch TV
[43:09] Speaker 7: or relax or work on stuff. And you know, it's
[43:13] Speaker 7: just sitting there like I can hear it, like like
[43:17] Speaker 7: like the edges of it are settling or something. And
[43:20] Speaker 7: then I went outside and there's like deep impressions. This
[43:23] Speaker 7: is a younger one with smaller feet, and the sixteen
[43:26] Speaker 7: incher of it recently showed up too. I think it
[43:29] Speaker 7: got pissed because I was going back to that location
[43:32] Speaker 7: in Gaffney where I told you I stopped going to
[43:34] Speaker 7: because I figured, you know, if I have the opportunity,
[43:37] Speaker 7: I might as well.
[43:38] Speaker 3: Anyway, that's it.
[43:40] Speaker 7: That's it for this one.
[43:45] Speaker 2: Hey there, Jeremiah. Since I only have five minutes to
[43:47] Speaker 2: do this, I'm going to skip straight to the point
[43:49] Speaker 2: I can sure other info later. So I had multiple
[43:52] Speaker 2: Sasquatch experiences. One of them on the coast of Oregon,
[43:58] Speaker 2: on the edge of florist Lay State Park, deep in
[44:01] Speaker 2: the woods, almost at nightfall. And the two main ones
[44:07] Speaker 2: that happened to me occurred in the Puget Sound of
[44:10] Speaker 2: Washington while I was on a missionary base a Ywham
[44:15] Speaker 2: base in the winter, and then the next winter I
[44:19] Speaker 2: didn't find stable housing and good work, so I ended
[44:23] Speaker 2: up becoming homeless and living in the woods. The place
[44:28] Speaker 2: that made sense to camp was next to where my
[44:30] Speaker 2: storage unit was, which was about halfway between Chimmickum and
[44:34] Speaker 2: Port Townsend, very very close within a stone's throw of
[44:39] Speaker 2: Port Townsend Historical State Park. I could go into a
[44:45] Speaker 2: lot of details on each of these, but the first
[44:49] Speaker 2: thing that happened was when I was on the Ywham
[44:51] Speaker 2: base in the middle of winter, I stayed up late.
[44:54] Speaker 2: Everybody was on vacation, we weren't really doing much, so
[44:57] Speaker 2: I could do whatever I wanted with my time. I
[45:00] Speaker 2: went down to a bench that overlooks Discovery Bay and
[45:04] Speaker 2: as a trail goes down to the ocean and behind
[45:06] Speaker 2: me is a small suburb of neighborhood that had a
[45:09] Speaker 2: huge patch of forest behind it one of the bigger
[45:11] Speaker 2: patches of forest that connects to other patches of forests
[45:14] Speaker 2: that are on that peninsula. And I'm sitting there on
[45:17] Speaker 2: the bench at like two am and it's quiet and still,
[45:22] Speaker 2: and then I hear the loudest, like horrifying scream that
[45:28] Speaker 2: was very long, at least like five to ten seconds
[45:32] Speaker 2: it went on, and it was very high pitched. At first,
[45:36] Speaker 2: it kind of sounded like a muscular, enraged woman screaming
[45:40] Speaker 2: in distress or anger or something like that. And then
[45:44] Speaker 2: that went. It fluctuated very high and very low, and
[45:47] Speaker 2: very high and very low, and then I remember thinking
[45:53] Speaker 2: what the heck was that I couldn't figure it out,
[45:56] Speaker 2: and I thought that should just wake up everybody in
[45:58] Speaker 2: the entire neighborhood. And nobody woke up, nobody came out,
[46:02] Speaker 2: turned on their porch light to look around, or anything
[46:04] Speaker 2: like that. And so that kind of stayed with me,
[46:09] Speaker 2: and I ended up becoming homeless camping in a tent
[46:15] Speaker 2: that next winter. I didn't find stable housing, and I
[46:21] Speaker 2: was right on the edge of Port Townsend Historical State Park.
[46:24] Speaker 2: It was closed for the winter for renovations, and there
[46:28] Speaker 2: were some deer trails that were near the entrance that
[46:30] Speaker 2: went off. It wasn't on park land, but it was
[46:33] Speaker 2: like right next to it. It was the only place
[46:34] Speaker 2: that made sense for me to camp, and we had
[46:39] Speaker 2: this big windstorm come through.
[46:42] Speaker 5: I was there.
[46:43] Speaker 2: It was the night after the windstorm that everything was
[46:48] Speaker 2: super still, you know, like the calm after the storm.
[46:51] Speaker 2: And I'm sitting there on my phone at like ten pm,
[46:53] Speaker 2: and all of a sudden, I hear louder and louder,
[46:58] Speaker 2: large heavy footsteps running on the deer trail that leads
[47:01] Speaker 2: to my camp. My tent was kind of hidden behind
[47:05] Speaker 2: a particular tree, which was intentional and didn't want people
[47:08] Speaker 2: seeing me from the road, and it didn't see me either,
[47:12] Speaker 2: but then it stopped because it must have, and facing
[47:15] Speaker 2: my direction, I heard it whoop very very loudly, at
[47:18] Speaker 2: least three or four times. And before it finished whooping,
[47:22] Speaker 2: I heard return whoops from like an alpha male, like
[47:25] Speaker 2: a big male, that were really freaking deep. And I
[47:29] Speaker 2: can sing bass, this was deeper and it sounded concerned.
[47:34] Speaker 2: The first whoops were like alertive, like hey, I found somebody,
[47:37] Speaker 2: I found something, and then the concerned whoops were like
[47:41] Speaker 2: something apparent would do, like hey, don't mess with them
[47:43] Speaker 2: or whatnot, and this thing circled my tent and multiple
[47:50] Speaker 2: things happened. I shared more in the email that I
[47:53] Speaker 2: sent you, and I'm about to run out of time here,
[47:58] Speaker 2: but yeah, this thing got very close to me and
[48:00] Speaker 2: I had a very interesting encounter that I can't say
[48:03] Speaker 2: anybody else I've heard on many many podcasts have had.
[48:06] Speaker 2: It was just kind of the way I responded. I
[48:08] Speaker 2: did catch a video of myself in the tent being quiet,
[48:13] Speaker 2: and you can hear one of its footsteps crushing twigs
[48:16] Speaker 2: and needles. But it was really quiet while it was
[48:19] Speaker 2: circling my tent, like it was trying to you know,
[48:21] Speaker 2: like ninja footsteps.
[48:23] Speaker 5: Yeah.
[48:24] Speaker 2: Anyways, I also had an encounter with a pale crawler
[48:28] Speaker 2: not far from there, near the paper mill in the
[48:30] Speaker 2: middle of winter on my e bike on the shoreline
[48:33] Speaker 2: after a b Regilian jiu jitsu class. And I have
[48:35] Speaker 2: had a dunde encounter recently here living in New Mexico.
[48:39] Speaker 2: I'm about to run out of time, so let me
[48:41] Speaker 2: know if you want to talk.
[48:42] Speaker 1: Before we wrap this episode. I want to say something
[48:45] Speaker 1: directly to a very specific group of listeners. If you're
[48:48] Speaker 1: in the military, any branch or forces, and if you've
[48:52] Speaker 1: seen something that no one can explain, or if you're
[48:54] Speaker 1: a National park ranger of forestry worker who's been told
[48:58] Speaker 1: to stay quiet, if you're a pilot who's seen something
[49:01] Speaker 1: strange down on the ground, or if you're with the
[49:04] Speaker 1: FBI a federal agency, or working intelligence and you stumbled
[49:08] Speaker 1: upon something you're not allowed to talk about. And if
[49:11] Speaker 1: you're a firefighter, paramedic, or search and rescue responder who's
[49:15] Speaker 1: heard screams or found tracks that didn't make sense. If
[49:18] Speaker 1: you're in the logging industry on a remote oil field,
[49:22] Speaker 1: or a trucker with government contracts and you've had something
[49:25] Speaker 1: happen that you've never told a soul. And if you're
[49:29] Speaker 1: a biologist, a wildlife specialist, or a field researcher under
[49:33] Speaker 1: contract who has found evidence you're not allowed to report.
[49:37] Speaker 1: If you're a pastor, a missionary, or someone on a
[49:39] Speaker 1: spiritual retreat and you saw something that shook your faith,
[49:43] Speaker 1: or if you work in the shadows, CIA, NSA, or
[49:46] Speaker 1: anything with clearance and you've seen what the public hasn't,
[49:51] Speaker 1: then I want to talk to you, even if it's anonymous.
