  • Here it is! My NEXT Bigfoot Documentary! Join me on this solo adventure exploring the existence of Bigfoot on Mount St. Helens. In this video I traveled to Washington State where I hiked through Ape Cave which was SO cool and creepy! I then backpacked further up the volcano to a beautiful lake where I spend the night alone...and it sits just three miles from Ape Canyon--the site of the world famous "Ape Canyon Attack". I have to say, Mount St Helens and the surrounding Gifford Pinchot National Forest seem to be the perfect place for a species like Bigfoot to exist. This area has had a rich history of sightings dating back to the natives who all knew they were here, to the Ape Canyon Attack, to wild stories of government conspiracies and coverups in the aftermath of the Mount St Helens eruption.
    Again, thank you to Ron Morehead for letting me use his unbelievable "Sierra Sounds" that he recorded. Also, thank you to Marc Myrsell who recommended June Lake as a squatchy place to check out.
    If you guys in any way liked this video, you should also check out some of my inspirations "‪@MountainBeastMysteries‬ " "‪@SmallTownMonsters‬ " "‪@westernbigfootexploration‬ " and of course "‪@SurvivormanLesStroud‬ " and his Bigfoot series.
    Another recommendation I have is to check out "‪@aflashofbigfoot‬ " . That channel is amazing and the documentary is called "A Flash of Beauty" . Incredible interviews by Dr. Jeff Meldrum, Peter Byrne, and more.
    Always have to shout out Joey Coconut and "MyOwnFrontier" . His backpacking channel really guided me into my style of creating hiking videos, and the guy is also legit! He can now be found on Patreon.
    Full Disclaimer: In this video I'm clearly stunned by finding large boulders on top of very big tree stumps. Ive done tons of research since and even reached out to the forest service. I can now conclude that the large boulders were likely placed on the stumps by a logging crew for several different reasons. This action could potentially be a way of removing obstacles for machinery or marking boundaries. However, it doesn't explain why small rocks would be scattered throughout other various stumps, or the tree wedged in between the stump and the boulder. The upside down tree at the lake very likely fell from the cliff. Or Bigfoot is real and is occasionally responsible for some of the oddities we find in the woods!

    Also shout out to Dr. Jane Goodall and my hero, Sir David Attenborough

    I just wanted to say, this is hands down one of the greatest videos on the bigfoot subject. I've seen hundreds of videos and have a playlist on here almost 8 pages long. Have you thought of mounting a go pro or some kind of camera on the back of your pack while hiking and also when you dont have your pack on a harness to wear that would film from the back. Most just view ahead and things might get missed from behind, like the comment you said about something falling off your pack. Keep up the amazing work, I'm very proud of you. I'm not a big fan of whooping, calls or tree knocks. We truly don't know what they are meant as. I say this because what we do may offensive to them, as our whoops, calls or knocks could mean something totally different to them. Let them come to you instead of trying to force it. They know you're there before you see/hear them.

      Thank you so much for saying that. Means a lot. I definitely watch a ton of these things too haha. I’ve thought about doing the whole GoPro on the back of my pack thing, and I may do it. My only hesitation is that it’s going to likely double the amount of batteries I’ll have to bring which might be worth it tho. Thanks again!

    Just last year we backpacked off the trails to an area about 16 miles directly east of Mount St. Helens and camped at multiple places over a 9 day period. On the sixth night after we turned off our tent light at around 10:00pm, we could hear loud crunching sounds. It went on for 5 minutes or so and my friend and I just sat there in the tent scared as all get out. After it went away, we got up the courage to investigate outside and found nothing with our flashlights. We decided maybe it was just an animal. The next day we started hiking our way out enjoying the scenery. That night we were woken up by our tent being pelted with little stones. I was just lying there sweating out pure terror! We didn't dare leave the tent. The next morning there were probably 40+ little pebbles all about the same size laying a foot or two from the north side of our tent. We were wishing we weren't so deep in and knew we still had at least two more nights even if we doubled our pace. That night we set up our tent right next to a huge tree, as close as we could get to at least have a side covered. We collected wood and kept as much as we could in the tent because we were going to try and keep the fire going as long as possible by throwing a piece from the tent to the fire about seven feet away. Later that night we heard the loud crunching sound of footsteps again; the fire didn't help. At one point a huge shadow traversed the tent wall between us and the fire and the footsteps started fading off. We heard a few loud cracking sounds of in the distance and then nothing. On our last day we were literally running our way back weaving through trees tripping and falling as we went, all the while feeling like we were being followed, but it was probably just fear. There was no way we were going to camp another night.

    My husband sent me this video. I was born and raised in OR/WA. I've had several encounters with them in Gifford Pinchot. You shouldn't go alone. Watching your video made me realize how stupid I was to be alone and I'd never go alone again. I kinda got anxiety watching your video. Theyre definitely real and definitely there. I think they're non-human primates, but I really don't know for sure. Whatever they are, once you see one, it will change your life forever, and give you PTSD. I love them and usually talk fondly of them because they tolerated me and let me be around them, but they are terrifying. I've been shot at, stabbed, kidnapped and held hostage and tortured and all sorts of crazy crap in my life but nothing has scared me more than they do when I've seen them or when they're mad and growl or bluff charge. I've had an encounter with a few that I thought for sure were going to murder me in the most vicious way, but they didn't. That feeling you got on that trail at night when you said "I think I need to turn around and go back" is what they do whencyou get too cloelse for comfort. Every time that's happened to me and I didn't listen, they'd make their presence known and throw stuff at me, break branches, pound the ground or bluff charge or growl and escort me out of the area. I never get that feeling with bears or cougars and I've encountered those too. In my experience, the whoops I've heard were from females telling their kids to shut up or be on alert, and from the males to tell eachother where they are and be on alert. They only whoop one time usually, not multiple times in a row. I will likely never encounter them ever again. It was a miracle I experienced what I have. It's a blessing and a curse. The most amazing thing but also the scariest. I really liked your video minus the ptsd anxiety part 😅

      I know, right? I too had an encounter with them in that national forest. At first when I saw them emerging from the woods I was terrified, but then I snapped out of it, opened my Yeti cooler and threw them a snack. It was a Ben & Jerry's ice cream cone, vanilla and butterscotch flavor. Before I knew it, they all started coming out of the woods and forming a line in front of me, so that each one would get an ice cream cone. This was the most terrifying day of my solo camping life in remote wilderness without any firearm or form of protection, as I didn't know if I had enough ice cream cones for all of them, because they might murder me if one didn't get his/her cone. Luckily, I did have enough for all of them, as I packed two boxes in my awesome Yeti cooler. Once they all got their respective ice cream cone, they turned around, waved at me and walked back into the forest. I think one even might've said something, but I'm not sure because I don't speak Bigfoot. It was a very magical moment, but also very scary. Even scarier than that time when I got kidnapped by Somali pirates and dumped overboard bleeding in the middle of the ocean in shark-infested waters.

    I live in Oregon since born in 73. My life has been spent in the mountain woods, loving every minute of it, not just living in them but working, hunting, foraging etc. The totally secure feeling I always had, changed quite a bit in February 2021 when I found out without question that they are 100% real. Not knowing was better, as you will find out if you ever encounter 1 or 2. The image is burned into my head of the one I looked directly into the eyes of from roughly 60 feet away. Evil is what I saw and the whole experience changed me in some ways. Definitely takes away the peace of mind

It takes your mind quite a while to realize what your looking at... 1st was like WTF is that... then my mind said it's a gorilla .. I guess because maybe only thing to truly reference... but then I knew within basically a second of that thought crossing my mind, exactly what it was. Over a 3 week period there were 2 of them that there were multiple instances with while I was working by myself out there that have made an impact on almost everything. The truly clear look at and of this one, which is the only clear look I got though, will never go away. That's a fact. I haven't even been back to that spot in almost 3 years now. I wasn't harmed, however a stupid mistake on my part I believe almost changed that. That was the day I knew for certain there were 2 of them. One was on one side of where I was and one one the other without question. It was thr most terrifying moment in my life and were talking about beings 48 yr old man who had 3 guns with him who has never had an issue being alone in the woods. Haven't been there in the years since at all

      do you know of any good videos with cryptids talking? I had an experience that I am trying to find anything similar. I had 3 of something having a casual conversation outside my tent one night. They were there fro a good amount of time and I listened well. It was not scary in the way that I was being attacked, but it was very scary due to the fact that one was only a foot or so from my head and "what the heck talks?".
      I also had 4 other encounters in the same area camping about 2 months later. Unfortunately, those other 4 were all scary as we were being terrorized (my son in one tent, me in another).

I can tell you without hesitation that they exist and would tread lightly when you enter their space!!! I believe many of the missing without a trace individuals are victims of this creature!

I didn't realize it then but now after watching all these squatch documentaries, i know for a fact that we had encounters with them as kids. I remember so many times feeling like we were being watched when we were miles from the neighborhood. Hearing strange sounds, knocks and whoops. Tree breaks. Things thrown our direction that we just thought was stuff falling from the trees etc. Crazy to know now that i was surrounded by them as a young boy and didn't even know it.. great video man thank you for doing this!

      Agreed, Silverdale resident here. Even with the development in the area, there are still plenty of dense woods that lead to the Seabeck area. Back in the early 2000’s, I heard a vocalization in the middle of the night that was so incredibly loud that I suspected it was a Sasquatch. Lived around the woods for many years and never heard anything remotely similar. Whatever it came from had the lung capacity to scream at an intensity to reverberate off the hills of Dyes Inlet. Went on for 10-15 seconds and then silence. Happened once more about 2 years later and nothing since.

Many things in this world we don't know about or has been hidden from us for whatever reason. Once you witness the paranormal,super natural,and UFO's with your own eyes on several different occasions over 44 years you soon realize that the boogie man and things that go bump in the night we're lead to believe growing up were just fake horror stories etc. are in fact real and truly out there. When you think about it these myths and legends had to come from something. People generally don't just make these things up without some bit of truth or experience in real life when they date back hundreds if not thousands of years ago.

We found very fresh prints in the hard pack snow near chocolate falls. About an hour later we saw one on the ridge to our west about 150' away from us. It was almost like daylight with just over half moon glowing off of the snowfields. Prior to finding the prints. Something was parralleling us for over 2 hours on our left flank.
    None the less, We felt no fear whatsoever. Make no mistake, I guarantee you that they are real.
    A few months later i had encounters with them while on Mt. Adams. Not once did i feel fear.

      @@gxtv2057bruh I wish I could say they don’t. It’s like seeing a ghost, once you do.. you don’t come back from it. Gifford Pinchot is my stomping grounds. My home. There’s places within the forest that feel… off. Just downright spooky. Other times, it’s so serene and you wouldn’t suspect anything weird. I’m more scared to see a cougar than a bipedal creature. With that said, elk hunting will never feel the same after seeing what I thought was a man dressed in black crouched next to trees that were over 10y worth of growth. I shat myself wondering “what the heck?? That’s a weird bear? Is that a-man????!” And as I was trying to sort out the dark mass, which had absolutely no features to understand the thing, it shot up 😩 it STOOD UP! My husband and I both gasped in horror as this extremely tall, almost silky black mass causally went over the ridge line in a matter of seconds. Nah, that’s impossible because that ridge line is vertical and we couldn’t climb it. The way it went over the ridge looked so unnatural and bizarre and by the time I processed the event I was running down the gravel mound we were standing on to go grab the binoculars. Look, this ridge has a road below it that we were going to travel, but wanted to see if any elk were on it first. So, it makes sense to assume either a man or bear. Black bear have an almost liquid appearance to their fur when running, but this thing one, shot up vertical and two, didn’t have ANY features. When I huddled back up that gravel mound, I tried to use the binos, but more importantly my husband goes “what is that????” As a deer bolted at full speed out of the tree line from the side of the ridge the black mass went to. We watched but nothing else took off after it! After standing there bewildered, we raced down the mound, hopped in the truck and drove over there. Something I failed to mention is the ridge line eventually leads to a helicopter landing area (it’s for forest fires) so whatever it was steps from the base of a tree, over the edge and through that landing area in a mater of seconds.
      I shit myself. I actually was horrified at that event. I have yet to sleep in the woods again 😩 I don’t see a future where that takes place.

    Also, I live here, grew up on these slopes from the early 1950’s to present. I spent many days and nights alone on St Helens; climbed on it; hunted on its slopes, skied Spirit Lake, etc. before the eruption. This is home to a lot of us.

      I camp alone but at the various horse camps around the area. Then I often ride alone. Was just up at Kalama Horse Camp and my friend noticed a tree that had been raked by a bear. He said it was over 10 feet when I guessed 8’ for the highest reach. The camp host said that they saw “that” bear a couple of weeks ago at the manure pile at camp. Wouldn’t like to meet that fella. I ride with bells on the saddle and like to chat just to let the critters know I’m/we are coming along. And yes, I carry. I saw others in camp carrying also. It’s stunning up there.

    Excellent video & editing, my friend. I'm 40. Born & raised in Pierce County. Now living in Tahuya. Grew up listening to Art Bell, and now listen to David Paulides (Missing 411). Highly recommend listening to his advice. There are specific precautions to take if you are alone. If you ever want to investigate Tahuya, come on out...🙃🌲 Our back yard is 20,000 acres of state forest/trails. Our family also has a cabin on the Hoh River, in the Olympic National Rainforest- grandfathered in before the final boundaries. You're welcome out if you need a safe base point.

Odds are it’s a local robin or thrush variety, though I’ve never caught visual of one in the act. However, they are prevalent in forests, farmland, and suburbs alike.

      He also cherry picks, stretches the truth, & some would say that he outright misrepresents some of the cases that he covers.
      Many folks find that they just can't trust him or believe his claims after they find out how his career as a police officer came to an end & how he either embellishes certain things about his past or never mentions them at all.
      With that said, I personally still think that there may still be some kind of bizarre, unexplained &/or not currently understood, or perhaps even sinister phenomenon that occasionally occurs to some people while they're outdoors & that there may be certain things that an individual can do to help greatly decrease the chances of it happening to them.
      I do think that it's important to mention that David Paulides himself doesn't believe, suspect, or think that the Missing 411 phenomenon is perpetrated by the Sasquatch. He seems to lean more towards it being extraterrestrial, cryptoterrestrial, or interdimensional in nature.

      It's apparently all on record if you know where to look. Many articles have been written about it.
      But to be fair, I do think that it's important to remember that
      1. We all make mistakes throughout our lives.
      2. We weren't there & aren't aware of what was going on with him or in his life that may have made it easier for him to justify his actions to himself (eg. mental health issues, divorce, mid-life crisis, addiction, etc. ect.). It doesn't make his actions ok or legal, but it might offer some explanation & understanding if we were privy to that info. I'm not even entirely sure if it's known whether or not he was doing what he did to make extra money, for clout, because he was a celebrity autograph nut, or some other reason.
      3. People can change. It has been a long time since David was booted from the force for using his police station's official stationery to solicit autographs from celebrities. As someone who was once a black tar heroin addict, I know that people are capable of great change.

    The main reason I would not hike a trail in night is if there is a threat and you have to run for your life, it's just too dark to see your way making it too easy to fall or get lost. Once you lose your bearings, bad things can happen. My hiking partner got disoriented in similar conditions at night. A flashlight was not enough. I would also NEVER go alone, or even with just one person, in case of emergency... because of that one hike.

      I do so knowing that I'm on my own. I've done so since I was 9 years old and got my first rifle. Over 45 years, I have never seen one, but i have heard 2. It was pitch black both times so I couldn't see anything. First time was just outside our house
      (This was in the Cherokee Nation south and east of Broken Arrow, Oklahoma) about midnight. I was 16 at the time and walking in the pitch black to my car and not fearing or thinking of anything when the largest roar I have ever heard (and I subsequently have been within 30 feet of African lions and tigers) this was far louder than an enraged big cat. I felt it in my chest and instantly was in extreme fear which is out of my character especially back then. I didn't consciously think that I better turn around and run into the house, my body just did it automatically in self preservation.
      The other time, I was up in a tree stand deer hunting and about 28
      years old. It was pitch black when I heard something bipedal and very heavy walking directly towards me. It wasn't a cow or a deer nor a turkey. I felt the vibrations in the tree stand and tree every time it took a step. Then, it paused beneath the tree I was in. I was terrified it had seen or smelled me. After about 30 intense seconds during which I could hear its very audible breathing, it finally continued on. I didn't move or make a sound of any kind for half an hour afterwards. I would love to see one from a safe distance. I am always armed when in the woods now.

    Hear is a trick that I learned from young off. Clear your mind while walking don't try to think or focus on anything that will get you running scenario's in your mind. it is actually very difficult to do! if your able to master this for long periods of time your mental detection of danger will increase to the point of knowing danger approaching few minutes up ahead. it sounds unreal but it is very much real as it works like this. while keeping your mind still of everything you soddenly get a though pop in your mind or for no reason you turn to direction (that will be your subconscious mind waring you of danger) it is so easy to over look it when it happens...it is like sitting in a room while someone steering at you and you turn for no reason to see them looking at you.
    I firmly believe the real reason Bigfoot is hard to film is that they have mastered this skill living in the woods in silence to the point of always staying out of range of us...I have the range up to about 1.5km and us it every time I walk my dog. I don't need to prove anything to anyone as you can believe what ever you want.. free world and so on.
    It is a skill you can learn and all human's have the ability to do it. but really it is hard not to fall for false thoughts popping in your mind because of expectations of detections. really a fine line to master as you also need to control your emotions and not give in to provocations of your location like fear of the unknown or stuff like that.
    Well good luck and if you are able to master this skill ill be happy to see your actual filming of Bigfoot

People say if they existed we’d have found them and that sounds like someone who’s never been out there. Caves are everywhere up there and they just look like recessed areas under big rocks and most people just trot on by.

      I think the statements " if they existed we’d have found them" are based on the fact that they are not in the fossil record and should be if they existed and that ever since the Patterson film, many biologists (professional and amateur) have gone out there looking for conclusive evidence that would be proof of a new species and have yet to do so. A large primate like that would need to eat the same foods as bears and live a similar lifestyle of moving from food source to food source. Game trails can be identified, bears make them and all animals would be using them.

    Here is a little advice I got from Survivor Man.
    If you're out alone put a Go Pro type camera on the backpack faceing behind you.
    You can walk right past a Tree peeker and not even know it.
    It might help you capture video evidence.

    Mt. Saint Helens where you know they have been seen. A place where you know there are caverns and tunnels from previous volcanic happenings. Being alone, overnight, unthreatening tells me this might have given you a better shot than the majority of people out there beating trees with branches and just being loud and destructive. I think you are on the right track.

    One of the most impactful moments of my life was at Mt St Hellens. Bak in the early 90s for a while people were being allowed to enter the crater and walk around. Me and some friends drove there for a day hike and two of us went into the crater. I had some work gloves in my day pack from some work I had dune weeks before and I put them on and walked up to the lava dome and put my hand on it. On the point I touched I felt no heat so I removed my glove and tried again and Iv got to tell you, there is nothing that will put clearer just how minute you are then feeling the heartbeat of mother earth rumbling under your fingertips.

    At @ 10:13 I heard a knock echo in the distance 😊 right after you say "so" and right as say "what better". I love it!
    I have to tell you about my funny way I leave comments. I start because of something I see or hear at that moment, so I don't forget what I want to say. Then I continue watching til something else spurs me to share due to my own experiences.
    So, with that said, I'm at 16:07 and you just brought up that tree again. I didn't need to stop at your first mention of it, no way I would ever forget what I wanted to say🤫
    That tree DID NOT fall from anywhere. That govt employee has clearly been questioned in the past by hikers and the like, about that tree. Knowing people the way I do, I'm sure he mentioned it to a higher up. I'm sure over time he learned it was best to call attention to the tree right out the gate, point out the roots at the top and nip it off with "a theory". If it came from above, it was thrown, but that is highly unlikely. I have pictures of two trees within 50' from each other in some old growth in the Mt Hood National Forest. There is nowhere these trees could have fallen from. They are stripped of their bark. When I first saw them in 2017 there were three of them. When I refound them in 2021 to get pictures I had lost of them that were on another phone I was broken hearted to see it invaded and abused by man. And when I stepped into the canopy it looked like someone had had a bit of a temper tantrum. The tree that was gone was no where to be found. And the biggest upside down tree's roots that were bare in 2017 were now covered in moss. I think the 3 trees I saw were a representations of a family. The big one to my left was Dad and then the other two trees were probably 12' apart. When I first saw those two, I saw a child facing their mother pleading with her. And the mother bending a bit towards the child as if scolding them. Oh, my gosh! I just had an epiphany! It literally just hit me between the eyes. The mother did die. And I think it happened giving birth to "my little admiere". Ok, sorry, I gotta go think on this new enlightenment.
    Trust your feelings, don't listen to your rationalizations, it can be dangerous. Acknowledge them out loud if you can. Tell them you don't wish to bring them any harm. State your intentions and respect for them, they do understand our words and they can sense our nature and know what is in our heart. They will respect you because of your acknowledgement of and respect for them.
    Any way love what you are doing, and be safe ~Lisa
    PS check out the stuff I have on my channel. I have some great thermal footage, unfortunately the device had no audio(it was recently stolen from me😭). The Dad I think that tree represents is now 10 foot tall with a 20 inch footprint 🙉🙈🙊

    I've been to that cave before. "Caves" There were several dozens of people hiking in that cave. It would have been more convincing if you picked a less touristy cave. On that same trip, I hiked the short day hike, less than 2 hours, from the parking lot to June lake. I loved the scenery but did not think it was that remote enough for an elusive cryptid, but who knows. Solo camping anywhere takes some guts. I would love to do it sometime.

    People from East Coast or who have never been to the West, have no idea just how remote some of these areas are, and that they are truly unexplored by man unless they hike for days on foot and camp out, its the only way to reach some of the areas, and even then can only access so much, as cliffs, rivers, mountains are too big and too hard to explore even on foot. Even flying planes or helicopters or drones can see mountain tops but the canopy of the trees give cover to any animals still, its just so dense, also you should carry infrared night vision to look for Orbs, as I have speculation that bigfoots can also traverse time and space and turn into Orbs when they want to, this one guy caught bigfoot on camera knocking on their door, they followed the tracks for 3 miles into the desert and the tracks just disappeared with nothing around. Many others have seen orbs around bigfoot sightings also, Sierra Nevada's also another hotspot, they talk in samurai chatter.

If you’re serious about camping in an area where weird things are common, there’s your spot.

    This is a great video, please make more like this. However, here's a thing; in his back yard, Sasquatch is King. You think you are stalking and tracking, and as you're looking for clues and evidence, you are being watched, observed, trust me, if there's one or more in your area, he/she will probably be aware of your presence and they will be curious and get to where you can be observed. If you want to see something, you have to stand still, squat down and choose a wide arc of vision in front or to the side to look at, and stare at something within that arc, and don't move. The reason you stare is that if your eyes are contantly moving around and refocusing, you will not see movement in the trees. But if you stay perfectly still and pick a spot to stare at in the distance, you will percieve much more movement within the forest around you. Switch your direction of arc every minute or so, and stay squatted down. Oh, and if you didn't hear the rock hitting leaves and branches on its way to the path behind you, then it wasn't thrown from ground level...do you get me? Don't forget to look up!!

    Tracking is kinda fun. A few years ago I tracked a cow elk and her baby. They crossed a highway and the baby was in a circular hole. I assumed it broke its neck running through there. CSI hat on, I saw the elk first and wanted to find out how it died. So, the tracks told its story. Not poachers, not roadkill, no visible exterior wounds visible. Only elk tracks. Sad stuff. Sasquatch's footprints almost look human but you will know when you find them. 10" to 18" foot sizes I've seen. Thank you.

    I've lived in the mountains of Oregon about 100 miles south of where you were for the last 30 years. I've explored the woods and clearcuts a lot, and I've never seen a big boulder on a stump like that, so I don't think it is a 'thing' normally done. Also, that was no trail marker, that was a cross, creepy as heck. The broken tree was likely from the ice storm a few months ago, it busted about 1/4 of the trees around here like that. Sasquatch was probably watching you from afar while you were sitting at your campfire. Next time you go camping alone again, if you want to let them know you are friendly and draw him in closer, try putting on a little lipstick and perfume. (lol) Take this advice at your own risk!

St. Helens. He spoke about rescuing people but never said anything about finding any Sasquatch bodies. He and my Grandfather were very avid hunters, so were familiar with wildlife in this area and hunted the area before and after the eruption. They were both story tellers, and loved to tell me and my sisters stories about hunting trips during family get togethers. If they had seen something I would like to say he would have said something, but maybe not. Unfortunately both my grandfather and uncle have passed so I could no longer ask them.

It was daylight and beautiful weather; we all had a clear view of the thing as it ran across four lanes of road and the median. If I could only remember where it happened, I'd like to go explore it. This happened back in the late nineties somewhere in the mountain west, my best guess is Utah, I have lived in Wash. and Oregon and just don't think it was there.

The more people, or if the person looks armed, the less likely they'll mess with you. All you gotta do is get too close or seem dangerous and they'll make their presence known. I mean if you pee in their territory it could be enough to anger them.
    IMO they have a warning system. The first warning, other than their tail marker trees or structures, is scaring you without you ever even thinking it's them UNLESS you're open to the idea of bigfoot, like a bad smell (which gorillas also use) or a feeling..possibly infra-sound lion big cats and elephants can use that'll make you ill or basically fall asleep, or making you think something was dropped behind you or walk alongside you like a predator and guide/escort you out from a distance and kinda drive you crazy until now suddenly you're walking faster away down that trail even though you think bigfoot isn't real. If you ignore that then they'll throw larger objects, clack rocks or smack a tree so hard it sounds like a gunshot. If that fails then they'll snap saplings and bluff charge like an elephant. You probably still won't see them, maybe won't even hear them whoop or growl. When you see them and hear them..well then you've missed all their warnings.
    They know humans are dangerous, so showing themselves or even vocalizing which lets you know they exist, and it means you can shoot them or bring more humans to find them. A dead human brings more humans, so killing you is a last resort, but like with all animals and humans, sometimes human is on the menu. They know what guns are and probably know what cameras are, probably just see cameras as traps because people with cameras behave differently.
    Anyway it's always fun going out and trying to get activity, but as soon as you get activity then the fun ends because now you realize it exists, a giant ape man (what's scarier?), and now you're in their world, possibly their living room or kitchen. It's a shameful and dreadful and scary feeling. You could trespassing, interrupting a hunt, entering their child's bedroom.. The forest is their world and you're a visitor. As soon as your car door closes, IMO that's when they have their eye on you. But yeah, listen to your gut and don't try to sneak up on them. I wrote a lot..haha

    Dont you think that you would indeed find physical evidence of Giant Beings in such places as these caves, if they were used for maybe 1000s of years, trackways, paths beaten down just like us Humans would definitely leave behind . Or they can be interdimensional Beings with far more capabilities then even our best scientists could imagine. I think so personally

      Tony they aren't there all the time. If so, I would've seen their tracks everywhere all winter and when it's muddy. I believe they come and go at will
      In the mid to late 70s, I would trap every winter all winter and I've seen track several times but only in the summer

    Very good video, Incredible and breathtaking scenery. I really like these more modern videos where your looking for bigfoot but your filming some of the most beautiful forests alive and well in the US and Canada. If you find the hairy beast, great ... If not, still a fantastic adventure. In 93 to 95 I worked for a Major US Communication company installing Radio towers for what is now the WSP Radio system. The Wenatchee was probably the most squatchy I experienced. We had paid riflemen with us while we worked. Seen and heard some strange things back then.
