On Tuesday it was a beautiful day here in Colorado. So I took most of the day off to go hiking with my dog Roo at one of my locations. What I am about to say is one of those incidents that I have no photos to back up what I saw today. Not even a print or tree structure. I have hundreds from this location but nothing today.

There is this ravine. It has been calling me now for over 1 1/2 years to go explore. I always stop and look at it when I go past it to explore further down. ... It is not one of those places that you can just go in there and explore. It is a very steep and rugged area. So I have been putting it off. Not any more.

I was looking up the ravine. About halfway up the ravine I noticed a brownish reddish what looked to be a head and shoulders watching me. This was about 75 yards away. I stood there looking at it wondering if it was a tree with maybe a rock behind so the shadows would make this look like one. I saw the head turn to look to its right and then looked back at me. At this point I am thinking this could be one. The shape, color and movement makes it a strong possibility. What should I do? Take a picture and have "ONE" of those that is not conclusive and also have the possibility it will leave when I try to take the picture? I decided not to take one. I stood there watching for about 1-2 minutes. I then decided to walk away and explore another spot and to come back to see if the head and shoulders were still there. If still there when I returned would tell me it was more than likely a tree w/rock with shadows. I came back 30 minutes later to check. As I started to come back I heard clearly a rock clack. When I was almost back to the location I heard another rock clack. I was getting pretty excited. I stood exactly where I stood 30 minutes before and there was NOTHING! I moved a little to my right and left to make sure. Nothing.

All I can tell you was that I saw a brownish red head and shoulders watching me up in a very steep and rugged ravine. How do I know it wasn't a shadow or tree? I did my due diligence. I left the area and went back, stood in the exact spot and checked. It was not there. I am confident of what I saw. I saw a Big One watching me as I explored this morning.

SQUATCH ON MY FRIENDS...SQUATCH ON!

The weather here in Colorado for the past month had been tough for someone who enjoys going out and exploring the forests.  The brutal cold with lots of snow had pretty much limited my explorations. 

I was able to sneak in one day of hiking with a friend.  The sun was shining and it was a balmy 36*.  It was nice to get out to smell the forest and enjoy being outside.  We had decided to follow a stream since the snow was too deep to go elsewhere at this location.  In the past I have had luck at this location of finding prints down by a stream.  Around the bend I noticed a sandbar in the middle of the stream.  There was a print right in the middle of it!  Of course I wanted to get measurements and check to see if I can find a track line with this print.  I had to take off my boots, socks and roll up my jeans in order to wade across the stream to the sandbar.  It was bone chilling cold!  It was worth it.  I had found a 14 inch print that was starting to get washed away by the stream.  That print was made earlier that morning.  I went back a week later and the sandbar was completely under water.  I am glad that I went exploring that day. 

I was not able to find more prints.  My guess was that the stream washed any other ones away.  It was a lucky find to find this one on a sandbar.  My guess if I had gone in the afternoon the print would have been washed away.  This spot where the print was found has dense foliage.  Even in the winter it is hard to see anything that is following the stream.  I am sure that is why I have been able to find prints there.  A good way to move about but with lots of cover to stay hidden.

SQUATCH ON!  My friends  SQUATCH ON!

Urban Bigfoot in Colorado?

 

Today I decided to do some urban squatching at a location I found a little over a year ago. Previously I had found some structures and prints that indicated a group was using this urban area to move through from Pike National Forest to go more east where there are an explosion of deer and elk. This morning I found 3 separate small 9-10 inch prints in mud with toes. They were found in the same location as the other prints I had found over a year ago. One set was very narrow but with toes and a flat foot. This set was standing still. The other two were found to the left and right of the narrow set of prints. Normally when I find narrow prints with toes in the human size range I don't think Bigfoot but due to the time of year and the closeness of the other prints it may indicate Bigfoot. The print with the wide toes had someone walk on it to the right of it. You can see the shoe marks to the right and middle of the print.

 

Our forest friends will move through some outlying urban areas to go where needed.  As long as there are cover to move undetected  and an alternate escape route. 

 

I had talked with someone who lives close by to this location and they told me that someone had seen large dark shapes moving through this location and wondered if it was ghosts.

 

I will continue to monitor this area to see if there are any changes.  My hope is to find more prints that will indicate where they come in and exit. 

 

So for now my friends it is onward I go.

 

SQUATCH ON!!! 

 

 

This past fall, I had the pleasure of visiting the beautiful state of Alabama for the Bigfooting in Alabama Campout. This wonderful Bigfoot group on Facebook has expanded my circle of friends to include Mary Katherine Scruggs, Martin Scruggs, Dorothy Sullivan and others. 

I would like to talk about what I had found and documented while in Alabama. I have no doubt about the presence of Bigfoot there.  It was a treat to be able to see and document what I had found while making and establishing new friendships.  I was pointed to an area in the tree line where Mary Katherine Scruggs had seen a Bigfoot stand and watch. So naturally I went over there to look and see. I had found a track of prints that stopped just in the tree line. The prints were 14 inches long. It was a great vantage point to watch.

Later on I decided to wander by myself to a spot that drew my attention. As I walked over there I spied a small tree break. This tree break was by itself and reminded me of tree breaks in Colorado that I suspect are used as markers. It had the same look and characteristics. I looked around in that spot and realized my first impression about the tree break seemed to be valid. It is right by a well-used trail. It also looked like it was made to point to an area. I suspect this spot may be used as another vantage point to watch.

Mary Katherine showed me another area that was used by hunters but she suspected our forest friends were in there. When I walked around a deer blind I realized that there may be some structures close by that could be Bigfoot related. I felt they could be a direct response to where the deer blind was located. I found 3 X’s ringing the deer blind on one side. I also found a structure/symbol that is similar to some I had found in Colorado. What the X’s and the structure/symbol means I am not too sure about. I suspect it is some type of communication. 

 

The conclusion I will draw from my experience there in Alabama and other states is the ability for me to see certain patterns and key clues that point to the elusive bipedal primate.  As a species this primate has some common characteristics shared with others within the species even across the country.  That is what you expect to see with a species.

There are many in the bigfoot world that discount or dismiss tree breaks, structures and symbols. I can understand why because this occurs naturally in the forests and woods. What makes some breaks and structures Bigfoot related are the manner in which they were made. They will be in layers and look purposely made. If you can put randomly made breaks and structures side by side with ones that are Bigfoot related, you will be able to see the difference. Bigfoot related structures have trees wedged and woven into other sticks and trees that could not be made naturally. They are purposely made.

 

I would like to thank Mary Katherine Scruggs for the invitation and the warm welcome I received while there in Alabama.  Southern hospitality at its finest.  I appreciated her willingness to show me some areas of active Bigfoot activity.  My stay there was much too short.

 

As my journey of discovery continues I have realized that this journey is still full of mystery and wonderful friendships.  What more could a girl from the wilds of Colorado could ask for?

 

SQUATCH ON!  My friends.  SQUATCH ON

 

At the end of October I was invited to stop and explore a friend's location with him on my way to Alabama.  We met at day break on a cold Friday morning.  My intent was to go explore with him for a couple of hours and then continue on my way to Alabama.  Well, it turned into several hours and I did not get to Alabama until around 10:00 PM.  It was hard to leave when you keep finding physical evidence such as prints and impressions!  Tree Structures were found in key spots that you expect.  Plus the company was great.

This location reminded me of an active Bigfoot location in Colorado.  It was steep, rugged with tree structures in key locations.  And had ravines!  In several locations while exploring we came across prints and impressions.  Even in heavy leaf litter.  The steep slopes and embankments made me feel right at home.  The main difference between this location and Colorado was the thorns and the extremely dense foliage. 

There were many similarities found and validated my friend's investigations of his location to what I have found in Colorado:

• Year round clean water source.
• Steep and rugged terrain with ravines.
• Plentiful food source such as deer and edible plants.
• Able to hide with ease from people with good ground cover and trees.
• Have an easy exit when needed.
• High areas to view activities in the area.
• Bigfoot is able to navigate the area with ease without detection.
• Large prints found on a consistent basis.
• Possible tree structures found in areas of Bigfoot activity.
• Bigfoot seen or detected by my friend several times.

As I was exploring this jewel of a location I was able to make some deductions and find certain key elements expected in an active Bigfoot location.  All doing this without my friend pointing any of it out!  It was a day of validation for him and myself.  This location was over 12 hours from Colorado and I have never been there.  I was able to find and figure a few things on my own without him pointing it out.  There were many key things found that I would have expected to find in an active Bigfoot location in Colorado but wasn't sure if I would find in another location in another state.

The conclusion that became apparent to me was that certain key elements that I have been associating with Bigfoot may be a common element with them in other states. 

I would like to thank Shane Carpenter who was a gracious host and was willing to share his location with me for a wonderful 4+ hours on a cold fall morning.  I am honored he trusted me enough to share this wonderful location.  He is an excellent field researcher with great eye for details and finding key evidence.  I felt right at home there and did not want to leave. 

So my friends our forest friends have shared characteristics you would expect from a species even hundreds of miles away and in another state.  It just validated my premise that this is a real and living bipedal primate living here in North America.

SQUATCH ON!

Bigfoot in Georgia

I have been very busy traveling around to other locations in other states these past few months.  One of the special and unexpected aspects about my journey of discovery is meeting and making friends with others from all over the country and world who have the same interests in this amazing bipedal primate.  I was invited to go camping in Georgia with some of these friends.  I flew there and absolutely enjoyed myself. 

One of the most amazing things while camping there was hearing the vocals of the local Bigfoot every night.  One night in particular stood out to me.  I was hearing one scream to the right and then another screamed back that came from my left.  They did this screaming back and forth for a couple of minutes.  The last scream from the left ended and then the one on the right do several deep W  W  O  O  P  P-W  W  O  O  P  P.  Then nothing.  This camping trip was very special to me because I had never heard screams or yells from them before.  I have heard mostly whoops, grunts, growls, whistles and a couple of howls. 

On my first day there I also had the pleasure of having one shadow me while 2 friends and I were exploring the woods not too far from our campsite.  A black one was seen coming out from the woods from the trail and walking over into the treeline.  Then I popped out a moment later on the trail!  My friends and I had found some prints and heard some movements walking with us while in there but had not seen one.

That to me explains how they can stay hidden from us.  To be able to move around and not be seen by the 3 of us while in the woods is amazing! 

In my next blog I will talk about my adventure in Missouri.  This location turned out to be very special to me because a friend trusted me enough to take me to his location.  It has the same look and feel as my special location here in Colorado.  I fell in love with the place.  I have plans on going back.

So my friends:

SQUATCH ON!!!

"People from very different backgrounds and different parts of the world have described very similar creatures, behaviors in similar ways, and uttering some striking similar sounds.  As far as I am concerned, the existence of hominids of this sort is a very real probability."

~Jane Goodall on National Radio"

A renown chimpanzee expert goes on public radio and says this.  She must feel very confident of what she has learned about Sasquatch to say this.  The interviewer was very surprised by what she had said.

I have had the pleasure of sharing my clueless journey with you for over a year now.  The journey has been surprising, perplexing, exhilarating and an eye opener.  I have changed my mindset several times because of the evidence and experiences I have discovered.  I have learned a bit about human behavior from other people which I never wanted to learn and I have found some wonderful friends because of my journey.  It has been a fun and amazing time.

I would like to share one of my recent moments that will stand out in my memories for many years to come.  I had the amazing pleasure of seeing a very large brown Sasquatch in June.  Just a few short weeks ago.

One of our close friends who had some medical issues has not been able to go out in the field.  My husband and I have been going to one of his locations for him.  This location holds a very special place in my heart.  I learned by first hand knowledge what eye shine looks like at this location.  I have had some very interesting experiences there.  

We had seen eye shine every night there.  Some fairly close but usually from a good distance.  So we knew they were watching us.  On our last evening someone had tried to use our campsite at midnight!  I asked them to move.  Reluctantly they did.  They ended up going down a very steep and rugged forest road that was more track than road.  You can travel faster walking than riding in a vehicle on that road.  It is bad.  They ended up going down about 1/4 mile or a little longer.  We couldn't hear or see them.  The next morning we started to pack up our campsite to go home.  My husband was in the tent folding cots and sleeping bags.  I had walked over to my car to check my cell phone.  I get sporadic coverage there.  It depends on the wind and weather.  I heard the rude campers coming up the forest road very slowly.  I could not see them because of the trees and foliage but I could hear the truck.  I glanced up and looked over in the direction of where I was hearing the truck but I knew I wouldn't be able to see it.  I saw what I thought at first was a woman looking at me because of the long hair on the head and shoulders but realized that it was covered in hair all over and realized it was a Sasquatch.  I watched it look at me and then turn towards the truck.  Then it simply moved further into the trees.  After it left I called my husband over.  He went over to the spot.  It stood beside a game trail and there was a large pine tree that it stood by.  With him standing there I was able measured the branches that was about the height of the brown Sasquatch.  It was 7 feet tall!  We used our range finder and measured the distance of 56 yards.  The coloring was a rich brown color and not a mahogany brown color that I have seen in the past.

Yeah Baby!!!  What a way to end a fun weekend of investigating.  We had one watching us and then watched the truck.  I do not mind those rude campers now.

SQUATCH ON!!!!
