Bigfoot Society - A Lolo Pass Local Finally Talks About What's Happening Near Mt. Hood
Episode Date: August 31, 2026A lifelong local from Oregon’s Lolo Pass and Mt. Hood region shares what people in the area have been seeing, hearing, and quietly talking about for decades.In this episode of Bigfoot Society, she t...akes us deep into the back roads around Lolo Pass, Lost Lake, Brightwood, Ramona Falls, and the surrounding Mt. Hood forests. She describes a childhood sighting in the late 1990s, strange activity along remote forest roads, massive human-like prints reported on vehicles, unexplained whoops, rocks being thrown, trees and branches being manipulated, and encounters with mysterious lights locals call “wisps.”Then she shares what happened at her own riverfront property in June 2026.Late one night, a whoop rang out near the house. A tree came down. Her dogs went into high alert. Near an enormous cedar, she and her friends spotted a massive figure watching them from the darkness. What happened after she confronted it ended with a wet river rock landing on her deck.You'll also hear local stories surrounding the “Man of the Ridge” above a Brightwood rock quarry, reports from hikers around Ramona Falls, experiences along the area's power-line corridors, stories passed down by old-time loggers, and more. This is an unusually detailed look at Bigfoot reports from someone who has spent her life in the Mt. Hood region and grew up hearing the stories that circulate among the people who live there.Listen through to the end. The deeper the conversation goes, the stranger the Lolo Pass stories become.📖 Follow Jeremiah's cancer health updates here:https://www.caringbridge.org/site/569ef3d3-68be-11f1-8790-97fdfd2bbc64🗣️ Share Your StoryHad a Bigfoot encounter or strange experience?Send it to bigfootsociety@gmail.com – your story might be featured on the show!🎥 Watch & Subscribe on YouTube🔴 Subscribe here → Bigfoot Society YouTube💬 Leave a comment & let us know your thoughts!📞 Leave a voicemail with your story → Speakpipe (Use multiple voicemails if needed)👥 Share this episode → Watch & Share🎧 More episodes → Podcast Playlist🌲 Recommended: New Jersey Bigfoot Encounters💥 Support the Show & Get Perks✅ Join the community on Supercast – Become a Member✅ Listen ad-free & early on YouTube – Join Here📱 Let’s ConnectInstagram: @bigfootsocietyTwitter: @bigfoot_societyTikTok: @bigfoot.society🧰 Tools & Partners I Use (Affiliate Links)These help support the show at no extra cost to you:Beam (Better Sleep): Try BeamWildgrain (Better Bread): Join HereSeed (Probiotics): Get SeedMedi-Share (Healthcare): Learn MoreLMNT (Electrolytes) Free Sample Pack with your first purchase! : Get LMNTOrganic and non-GMO groceries delivered for lesshttp://thrv.me/uarEhS🎙️ Podcasting Tools:Repurpose.io: Try ItDescript: Sign UpStreamyard: Start RecordingRiverside.fm: Try Riverside🎧 My Audio Interface: View on Amazon☕ Buy Me a Coffee – Support Here🛍️ Grab Some Merch – Shop on Etsy📬 Mailing Address:Bigfoot Society125 E 1st St. #233Earlham, IA 50072

You're listening to Bigfoot Society and I'm Jeremiah Byron.
In this show, we go beyond the campfire stories to bring you first-hand encounters from people who say they've seen something impossible.
From backwoods trails and remote mountain haulers to quiet farms and crowded highways, the stories come from everywhere, and each one leaves us with more questions than answers.
These are the voices of the people who've lived it.
So settle in because today you'll hear another account that just might change the way you see the woods forever.
So stay with us.
Please keep Jeremiah in your prayers as he continues his fight against cancer.
For more updates about his medical journey, please go to the Caring Bridge link in the show notes.
Thank you.
We all know what's going on.
Perfect.
I'm going to start recording right now.
So I'm just going to, we'll try to intro a little bit.
You had made some comments in a recent TikTok live.
So we got connected about stuff going in the Lolo Pass area of Mount Hood region of Oregon.
Awesome. So can you kind of share what you know about what's going on there? Because I've heard a whole lot of things over the years.
Like specifically, what do you want to know?
So you are, are you aware of stuff that's happening in Lolo Pass because of stuff you've experienced or because of stuff that you've heard?
Well, I've lived up here all my life. But of course, like, everybody knows, like,
You know, that there are bigfoots out there.
And especially like in the Lolo Pass area, it's very heavy energy up there.
And things happen like you get like you feel like something's watching you.
A lot of the deer up there have weird tendencies that happen.
like you'll be walking around in a field and then all of a sudden, you know, the deer will come running out of the forest and they'll gather up in like a circle and they'll start like snooting and like something's watching them or chasing them.
If you go up there at night, you definitely can feel something watching you.
and your phones start to drain the batteries very rapidly, even if you're on a full charge.
Yeah.
You'll see shadows up there.
If you go walking in the forest up a little past, like, it's really a weird region.
There's like a road, but there's, you know, a lot of ATV roads that go back into the
forest and if you go back into the forest like you know um they always say when you go up there
don't look in the ground on the ground look up in the canopies why do they say that like in the
canopies of the trees because that's where they are and you can definitely smell um when a male is around
um the energy gets very extremely heavy and um they get pretty pretty and um they get pretty
be aggressive.
Like,
um,
branches will start breaking and like ahead of you or back of you.
Um,
also at night,
it gets pretty creepy because I don't know if you've ever heard of a wisp.
No,
can you describe that?
So it's kind of like on that one show,
that one movie,
brave where those little blue balls died her.
Yep.
So when you get close to one, you'll start seeing these floating Lisp and then like they
disappear and then they'll reappear in different angles, like different directions.
So it's really weird.
In, in the, let's say the, let's say the Bigfoot community, that just to connect for some people,
that is usually referred to as orbs and so that's very interesting so you are and so that's like
balls of light that randomly show up in the woods and so you are experienced that out in this
area is what it sounds like oh it's very prevalent yes yeah okay um so the areas you're going out
is it like you're going up east lolo pass road and up in that area where there's campsites
Um, so there's not really campsites. It's basically you go on East Lillow Road and it's the back road like you're going towards Lost Lake.
Got it. Interesting. Okay. Yeah, yeah. Um, have you ever, I've heard a lot of things from campgrounds up in that area.
What kind of things have you heard happening in those campgrounds?
I've heard that late at night, something will run through the campgrounds and disturb them.
It will come up, like, something will come up and disturb them, like shake their tents or throw stuff at their tents.
basically it will get very, how can I say it,
kind of like tactful in its ways to scare them.
You said tactful in its voice?
In its ways.
It will be kind of like a wolf hunting its prey.
Okay.
It gets very territorial.
Are these things that you've heard on podcasts,
or these are just things you've heard from other people in town?
Um, just people in town. Yeah, every, everybody knows what's up there. Okay, so this is, this is wild because on my show, I've talked to people about this area. And I've always been like, it would be nice if I could talk to someone from the area, which a lot of locals will not talk about this. They just don't want to talk about it. And to hear you say the same thing that has been shared with me from,
people about this area that are not locals to the region,
but I've had pretty much similar things where they're running into the campsites,
they're messing with the tents, they're being seen through car windows,
when there's, you know, let's say a person is sleeping in the car,
they see them through the windows three feet away,
just wild, wild stuff.
I'm not surprised at all.
Okay.
Night.
is pretty active and the reason why is because the river is on one side and if you go down that road late at night
you'll see shadows running across the road um yeah and it gets the energy of that area gets really really heavy
there's been sightings of Bigfoot as well.
There's a ridge there and they will come off the ridges and go to the rivers at night.
So you'll hear like in my backyard, one night we were on the deck and I had a couple of friends over and I live right off the river.
And it was probably one, two o'clock in the morning and we were just playing cards.
And all of a sudden, like, we heard this like whoo.
And it was like a whoo like that.
And all of a sudden, like this tree fell.
I mean, like there was no wind.
There was no nothing.
It just fell.
Right.
Oh, my goodness.
And then we, I got my flashlight and my dogs were going,
crazy like their hackles were up like they're ready to to to fight so i put them in the house
i went and got my flashlight and there's this huge old cedar tree and my friends like do you see
that human over there and i said what do you mean and it was peeking side to side and then we saw like
it wasn't a cougar it wasn't a bear it was probably about 14 feet tall
and probably about four feet wide.
Really?
Yeah.
And I shine my flashlight.
And then all of a sudden, like, there's my yard and there's a 50 foot embankment that goes down to the river.
And as soon as I did my flashlight, I saw the reflection of his eyes and they were like yellow.
And then all of a sudden, like, it jumped down and.
it jumped down and it was like really pissed.
How could you tell us?
And then we waited.
Oh, because it was like shaking the, it was like shaking the trees.
Like we heard like a big bridge snap.
And so I went to the fence line and I was just like, you know, like they say like talk to them.
And so I told them like, this is my property.
You're not going to do that to my property.
and you need to go away.
And then probably up 45 minutes later,
all of a sudden this huge river rocked.
And it was still wet.
It got checked about 50, 52 feet from my fence line onto my deck.
No way.
Yeah.
Oh, my goodness.
When did this happen again?
This happened like in June of this year.
June of this year, 2026.
Holy mackerel.
Can you describe?
And that's when we went inside.
I said, we're done.
Let's go inside.
So you literally have, you have activity in your backyard,
which is not surprising at all.
My goodness.
Did you, so native to the area,
or did you move there?
No, I've lived up here all my life.
I was born and raised here.
Did you know that this area was always had Bigfoot in it,
or when did you realize that?
I realized that when we were little kids.
Of course, like, we all, you know, kids that grew up in the forest,
we all went adventuring.
And so one day we were adventuring up in the forest.
And all of a sudden, it was a group,
it was a big group of us kids, you know, playing with sticks and, you know,
just being kids, you know.
And then all of a sudden, like, we started getting scared and panicked out of no reason.
And we saw this gorilla thing run past us.
And then we started running.
And it was like hooting and hollering at us and being very territorial.
And then we went to the, we got to the road, and that's when we saw it and it ran across the road.
And we told our parents and they said, oh, just don't worry about it.
Like, you guys are just being imaginative.
Like, it's fine.
Yeah.
And so we've known.
And also, like, the old time loggers up here, like, they have.
tons of stories, but a lot of people won't go on record because they don't want people to come up
here and disturb the mountain. Bingo. What would you say the approximate year would have been on that?
It was probably like 98, 99. Gotcha. So you, oh man, it's so many questions. Have you ever heard any
questions, any stories that are similar to a person seeing a big foot and then have it turn
into something else in the area?
I, um, so I have heard, um, that bigfoot is, there's different entities of Bigfoot.
There's a Bigfoot and then there's the Skinwalker Bigfoot.
And did you hear that?
Is that a local?
You've heard that locally or?
It's a locally, yeah.
Really?
Oh, my goodness.
Yeah.
Like they'll, like once a big, how can I say it?
When a big fight is being hunted or, you know, they're investigating them,
big foots will turn to shadows.
And they have different portals.
And, yeah, they have different portals.
And I've heard this, it's not like folklore.
What kind of folklore up here, but yeah, we're, again, with the, with the list, we call them up here, because they're kind of like orbs.
and I've heard that the orbs, when Bigfoot wants to get away, that's kind of like their portal.
Oh, so it's talked about in this town a lot.
Yeah.
Like the whole Whisp thing, really?
Yeah, like different orbs, especially once you go on to like the National Forest and you start
when the forest goes silence and you don't hear anything, that's when you know they're watching you.
And also the deer, like one time we were up there and it was a, you know, we were just up there because there's the mountain and people, people in town, they go up there a lot.
And so we were up there.
It was probably like, you know, 11.30 midnight.
And all of a sudden, like, we were driving back.
And there was like a bunch of deer in the road.
And they looked really, really scared.
Like our car was like in front of a deer.
And they like were not, they were not moving.
And of course, it's pitch black up there.
You really can't see anything.
And next to the car, all of a sudden, like, you know, like when you step on something and
the soil starts to give out and like rocks kind of start falling, well, that's what happened
next to our car.
And then all of a sudden, the deer literally hauled down the road.
And I was like, I told my honey, I'm like, what was that?
And he's like, I don't know.
he's like that's really weird I'm like yeah he's like don't you feel that I'm like yeah I
said the energy is really really heavy right now um you've mentioned energy quite a bit which I
I get what you mean by that because I've experienced it as well done the Willamette National
Forest when I've been out there um how would you describe what you are talking about with
energy, maybe just someone who is not experienced anything like that?
So what I mean by energy is kind of like your hypersensives, senses start going, they go into
alert mode and you start feeling like a dark doom over you. And it's kind of like having a
semi panic attack a little bit. Like your body just feels like
extremely heavy and it gets really dark.
And you just feel like something's wrong.
Your body's telling you, hey, something's wrong.
And your body is feeding off of the vibrations of what's ever out there.
Yeah.
It's kind of like the alert system for your body.
That's how I kind of explain it.
Like your intuition and everything starts saying, hey, something's wrong.
Like, do you feel that?
Like, it's like primal thing kicks in.
Yeah, exactly.
And I would say they're really hyperactive, like not during the day per se, but if you go into the forest up there.
So one time we were up there late at night, Anna, we are on the National Forest Road.
and everything was fine.
Everything was good.
And we started headed back.
And there was no tree that was down.
And all of a sudden, like, I was like, what is that?
And my honey was like, oh, and something had literally stacked, very methodically stacked,
like these huge branches and then literally pushed a maple tree over because it was snapped at its bottom.
Like if you take a toothpick and snap it, that's what it looked like on the bottom.
There's a lot of like native history over here too.
and so a lot of like the natives like they just say don't go in the forest at dark wow
yeah like don't go in the forest at dark um the bigfoot's out here um they're very aggressive
um very aggressive are are there stories you've heard that uh to back up that statement with um
Yeah, so there's a local up here that goes up there quite often.
And he was out there just scouting, just doing his thing.
And he was between, if you look on Google Maps, there is a power lines, big industrial power lines.
and there's like a clearing between the forest and these power lines.
And he was in that clearing.
And he was just scouting, looking at tracks and everything.
And all of a sudden, like this huge branch came flying at him.
And then all of a sudden, like, he heard a bunch of like,
vibrations, like something was in back of him, like beating on these power, these steel, like, power line things.
And he said that it scared him so bad that he went back to his car.
And he always said that they're really very aggressive, which is true because they do use these power lines to communicate.
And you can, how can I say it?
Like they do use the power lines to communicate because when you're up there, you'll hear this big old like bong thing.
Like it will sound like that.
And then you'll hear like snaps, snaps.
And then some nights you'll go up there and you'll hear like, like one time you're up there and it
sound like a it wasn't a cougar it was literally like it wanted us to come into the forest
and it sounded like a baby crying oh boy okay yeah yeah yeah yep i totally know what you're talking
about um do you ever hear something like voices from the woods or anything saying words from
the woods or anything i thought um i mean we've heard like um well when i went up
there once and I was walking my dog up there. It was kind of, I was on the road and I felt like,
I felt like I was kind of like in a bubble and I was hearing my name being called. But you know
how like you'll be sitting there sometimes and then all of a sudden like you hear like somebody
said your name. And I was like, I turned around and I was like, what was that? And I felt like my
head started getting like very like um confused like i was getting lightheaded right and i was just like
i started talking and i'm like i don't know why i started talking i was like who's calling my name like
i don't know who you are but whoever you are you need to stop i'm not going to go towards you and then
that's when i heard like this crying this baby crying and i just
went to my car and I kind of sat there and I had a hundred percent charge of my phone and I looked at my phone and it was dead.
Right. Absolutely. Yeah. Wow. So the guy that had the experience that you were talking about, the local, is he like a local Bigfoot research or just a guy who was out there doing stuff in the woods and had that experience?
he's just he's a local guy that just goes up there and goes in adventuring and everything
that's cool like he he doesn't go out there looking for things um like for big foot you know
he goes out there and um scouts around and you know looks at um like footprints or like prints of
animals.
Really, it's just like kind of like relaxing for him.
Like he goes up there to relax and just be in his own world.
Which is probably why he's having activity, to be honest, because he's in that mindset of
like he's not hunting after something.
He's just, you know, kind of chilled out.
It could be hard to know.
So you've got forest fires going on like right now to the east of you, correct?
Yeah, we're in evacuation one.
Oh my gosh.
And yeah, so it's be ready.
And Lolo Pass, that area is closed off right now.
You can't even get up there.
No, you can't go up there right now.
It's 100% closed.
You're talking about like East Lolo Pass Road.
Like you can't get up there off the main road.
Yeah.
Yeah, a lot of hikers because they go over there and they park.
and they'll climb over to like they'll hike to romana falls yeah and there's been like
people come back to their cars and they'll be like prints on their trucks um really
like the beds of their trucks have gone through and when they're hiking it's
like they're being followed by things.
And these are just things that you're hearing around town.
Yeah.
Oh, that's incredible.
So like, that's, that's what blows my mind because there's, there's so much going on there is that you're just talking to people around town and you're, you're kind of hearing these things.
And that's, there has to be a lot of those conversations happening for you to randomly hear.
hear them, I would, you know, kind of logically surmise.
Are those like, are they saying like their big handprints or what kind of prints are they
saying or are showing up on those?
Like a human handprint, but extremely large.
Wow.
Okay.
Yeah.
Also like at the Rock Corrie in Brightwood, they call him the Man of the Ridge.
and I can take a picture of it and send it to you
so you kind of get what I'm talking about
but in the rock Corey
they do blast up there
and
Bigfoot is known to be up there
and sometimes
if you're looking up into
the ridge
and you can see
something up there
And it's well known that Bigfoot goes to this ridge and looks over everything.
And people have seen him on the ridge.
And it's right above like the rock quarry.
So you're saying that people that work at the quarry are calling him this?
Locals.
Okay.
Locals.
Yeah, locals.
people that work up there, they've seen him.
Old time loggers,
you know, they've seen him
all over the place up here in Estacada,
the mountain forest.
Oh, yeah, promontory.
Is there
a place in town where
people are going to talk about this?
Or literally it's just like you're in town
getting coffee or you'll hear a story
or something like that?
Yeah, like you'll just go, you know, go get coffee or you'll be at the grocery store and, you know, you'll hear a conversation happening.
And you'll hear like, you'll hear hikers, especially right now.
They'll be like, man, like, there's a really extremely large bear.
And it's a really big, that's a while.
And you're kind of like, yeah, like you listen to them and you're like, you don't say anything, but.
you're just like, dude, that was not.
Or, yeah, like, we were getting, like, something was around our campsite that was being very aggressive towards us and running through a campsite.
Yeah.
Something I've always wondered about for this area is so if you look on a map and you have Welch's almost try to make a V into the salmon Huckleberry Wilderness.
And it feels like, I know there.
been a recent
sighting at the golf course
in Welch's
within the last year.
I don't know if you heard
about that too.
But is there stuff
like do people have
encounters if they take that
what is it like
old salmon river road
down into the wilderness
there? Is that a place
that's talked about as well?
It's not so prevalent.
Okay.
Um, but when the deer are up in the forest area and the deer are kind of down in our level,
that's when you get heavy activity.
And the reason why it was there is because, um, the deer, um, there's a big herd in that area.
Okay.
Okay, this is a big group of deer down there.
All right.
Yeah.
And like, not only that, like, it's really weird because they say that Bigfoot is a vegetarian, but, or from what I've heard, and it eats fish.
However, like, sometimes when you're hiking in this area, you'll find, like, a car.
carcass.
Okay.
And only it's like stomach is eaten out.
Hmm.
And it's really, really weird.
That is very weird.
And so that's like deer and stuff like that?
Yeah, mostly deer.
Um, or you'll find like a carcass and it will literally look like somebody snapped it in half.
Oh, really?
So are we talking about like broken neck type stuff or?
Like stomach eaten out and literally snapped in half like a toothpick.
Wow.
That is wild stuff.
So really if you were in this area and you wanted to get the, this is just for me personally,
if I was in the area and I wanted to get the attention of locals, you would more talk about the man of the ridge rather than big,
foot.
Yeah, I would talk about the man of the ridge and also about orbs.
Which you said, once you start talking of the name was Wists.
They're called Wiss.
Right.
Yeah.
Yeah, because they're really fast.
And then like when we were in the forest, like the orb came like we were having activity.
And then like, I don't know.
It was so weird and we heard like big like a big whoop and then it was in front of us.
Then we heard one in back of us and that's when it stopped and then we heard like bit like it sounded really big.
And it was like snapping and crackling like limbs.
And then all of a sudden like we saw like this ball, this orange ball.
and then it went away and then we saw a blue one and then we saw multiple blue ones like in a row
like it was leading us somewhere like it wanted us to follow and that's what I'm like yeah
we're out let's go so do you think that Bigfoot is some undiscovered big ape in the woods
or there's something else going on that's a lot weirder than that i think i personally think that bigfoot um
i think bigfoot is a spiritual being and i feel like when you cross its territory it becomes very
upset but i really feel like bigfoot is some type of spiritual being if that makes any sense like
yes it's an eight like it's kind of it's it's a big thing but it also think that big foot is
completely something else like traditional like native like spiritual being kind of thing
But it's so weird.
Because it has so many towers.
Like I don't understand like it feeds off of your energy.
It feeds out the phones.
It feeds off the cameras.
Like, you know, like, why do, why is it when we have these encounters?
Why do our phones go dead?
You know, when we went up there actually looking for it, like our thermal camera, it went dead.
Wow.
Okay.
So you've actually, there's sometimes you just go out there for fun.
There's sometimes you're actually going out to try to look into the phenomenon yourself.
And then stuff happens is what it sounds like.
Yeah.
When you go looking, things don't happen.
But when you're just out there, just enjoying yourself, like meditating.
Like that's when things start happening.
Exactly.
around your property
are there any other things happening
that would let's say people would say
is like high strangeness or
paranormal type things besides
uh whips and having a 14 foot
big foot in your backyard
um
no not really um
not really just
you know um
just really that
I mean, we do have cougars and everything, but, you know, when it's around, all the dogs in the neighborhood are, you can hear all the dogs just wanting to go out.
Right.
Yeah.
I mean, I've talked to so many people over the years.
I've talked to one guy who cleans the AirBs for that road, and he's like, they're constantly, the Bigfoot are constantly messing with the guard.
garbage and the owners know it and they're all talking about it.
I've talked to campers that have had activity around those campsites for multiple years.
Wild stuff.
I was actually supposed to be talking to one of them today and didn't work out.
So I'll be talking to him soon.
Wow.
This is absolutely incredible, incredible stuff.
what would you say is is okay maybe maybe two more um is are there any are there any other
have you ever heard of any aggressive reports from this area um no i haven't really like
that's cool i have like reports um i will tell you they they one time um you know when we were
getting like rocks thrown at us at our car like we thought it was some kids up there you know being
rude um and so like we we were driving and all of a sudden this rock hit her car and they left it in
and um so like we reported it to um the forest service which is down the road and we went back
back up to go see what little did it, you know?
And so we went back up and like we went around a bend.
And it's like this like shady air like shaded area.
Like shaded area area and there's like a waterfall.
And we literally saw it was not a bear.
We literally saw this thing jump from the road up onto the ridge and it was gone.
So we went back.
down to the Forest Service and we're just like, hey, we just saw some like gorilla thing
jump from the road onto the ridge. And I said, if there's like a bear up there, like you
guys need to put up the signs, like be careful, there's bear activity because they do that.
And the guy, the Forest Service guy, he's like, well, you don't know what you saw.
Oh, no way, really? I was like, well, I'm pretty sure I did. And he's like,
You just don't know what you saw.
Oh, no way.
I hate that crap.
Oh, my goodness.
That makes me so mad.
Don't tell me what I didn't see.
Oh, my goodness.
Like, okay, so how are the police and the rangers and the forestry dealing?
Like, you know they have to have some crazy file in this area.
Or they just don't care.
Oh.
No, that's funny that you say that.
Because they have cameras out there.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, there's lots of trail cameras up there, yeah.
Because the Bull Run Reservoir.
Oh, yeah, yeah, right.
If you go more up there, there's the Bull Run Reservoir up there.
There's the road.
Well, all up in there in the forest in different areas,
there's tons of trail cams.
They know. They know what's going on.
They have to. They have to have caught something.
That's wild.
Yeah, they know what's going on because, like, once there's heavy activity,
like, you'll start to see more, like,
for service people up there.
Really?
Yeah. You'll also see, like, unmarked cars up there.
You'll see helicopters up there.
Yeah.
So, like, by unmarked cars, what would you, like, do you're talking like SUVs blacked out type deal?
Yeah, like SUVs blacked out, yeah.
So.
Like Tahos, Chevy Tahoeys that are blacked out.
So I want to make sure I get that, right?
So you're saying there are certain times of years where you know there's tons of Bigfoot stuff going on.
And then all of a sudden, forestry and unmarked cars show up.
Yeah, yeah.
And down below, you'll see, like, their trailers with, like, there'll be, like, a bunch of trucks.
And they'll take their four-wheelers and ATVs and side-by-sides up there.
And, like, the trucks are blocked out unmarked government license plates.
Yeah.
What, what time?
Is it always the same time of year that this happens?
It's certain times of the year.
Yeah, it's just certain times of the year that you'll see it happen.
And then you know something's up.
That's absolutely wild stuff.
Living there for your whole life, can you think of, what would you say the just
craziest Bigfoot story you've ever heard from the area?
Is there one that is like, wow, that is really wild.
I'm not sure if I believe it.
There was one story of this older gentleman.
And, of course, there's a bar in town.
And so we were there and he was telling this story.
And he said he was up there hunting.
And it was starting to like snow.
and he like started seeing like these tracks and he started following them and all of a sudden he
felt this overwhelming like panic in his body and then he said that when he looked around like nothing was
there and he started snowing even heavier so he started like headed towards his car and when he
got to his car um there was tracks all over in the snow by his car and i was like are you serious
like it basically went to his truck found him went to his truck and then he said when he was
headed back a big rock hit his windshield and shattered it no way yeah oh wow yeah okay so that's kind of like
watch yourself yeah yeah like don't come up here this is your this is your warning and i i kind of like
until like i have that rock hit my deck like i think by me telling it like this is my land this is not yours
you will not scare me.
I think bucking up to it
and acknowledging that it was there,
like,
it gave me a warning back.
Like, don't mess with me.
This is what I can do.
Yeah, I mean, it's kind of like,
okay, you made the line,
I'll make a line too.
And we'll both make sure not to cross it.
Have you ever,
there's no one you've ever heard talking about,
like, well, I,
the thing sometimes to do with this,
this field, you talk about stuff and it's stuff that people are just not going to be talking about out in the open.
Have you ever talked to anyone who's like, you know, hey, I heard a weird voice in the, well, I guess you mentioned you heard.
You did hear your own name, but anyone who's ever gotten like maybe telepathic messages or anything out of the ordinary like that when they're out in the woods?
I don't know if you know what I'm talking about.
It's weird that you say that because people up here, what was it?
Like, it's weird because like some of the locals will talk about like they feel like an energy around them and like something is calling them to go up there.
Oh, for sure.
Wow.
Yeah, like they're calling you to come up there.
And I've had that experience as well.
And like, I did go up there.
And even though it was late at night, like, even like my headlights, my high beams were on.
And it's like I couldn't really see.
And my dog, I took my dog with me, of course.
And like, she was like ready to beat some.
like she was just like, I'm ready to go.
That's wild.
So you, so it's known.
Yeah.
You just were like,
hey,
I feel drawn to this area.
And yeah,
I got you.
Okay.
That's,
yeah,
like it's drawing you.
Like it's saying,
hey,
come up here.
I,
we've been up there hiking and I,
like,
stopped in my tracks.
Or my honey,
stopped in his tracks too,
a couple times.
And he said,
we need to go.
It's,
we need to go.
Wow.
that is that's really intense um it seems like in these towns in the pacific northwest there's always the one old guy
who knows all the bigfoot stuff and everyone is sometimes like oh that guy he likes to talk about
bigfoot is there a guy that that you know of for that area where it's like oh you need to talk to
this dude um there's um a clan of them a clan of you know that you know that you know
they lived up here all these, you know, they live in these houses secluded out in the forest.
And, you know, a lot of them are old loggers.
They have lived up here for a time.
And, you know, they won't talk on the phone.
Right.
But they always go and they're regulars at this place that I mentioned.
They're just the old men that go up there and have their coffee every day.
And, you know, they talk amongst themselves.
And, you know, that's where the stories have always came from.
That's incredible.
Like, how cool is that?
Yeah, like you have your old timers, you know, just like in any small town.
You have your old timers.
You know, you have your old farmers.
Yeah, like you use.
have those little people that know the history of everything.
I would just say that there's a lot of things that happen up here that are unexplained.
You're and they're not talked about, they're talked about locally.
Everybody knows that it's there.
And you know, when, you know, things happen, you know, that that's
what it is. Right. Yeah, that makes sense. But I will also say that if you're more
intuitively, intuitively connected to your own self and you're self-aware and you're open,
more things happen to you. Absolutely. A hundred percent. Yeah, if you're open to stuff,
you're going to start experiencing stuff. I totally agree with that. I have experienced
Yeah.
firsthand.
Wow.
Wow.
Good stuff.
Thank you so much for hanging out.
I will also tell you that over an Esticated by Bagby Hot Springs,
there's a lot of activity up there too.
You have Bagby Hot Spring Esticated stories?
Oh, man.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, there's a lot of stuff that happens over there.
I've heard crazy stuff happening.
Well, I mean, because that's the Bigfoot Highway.
And, yeah, man, may we talk again someday?
Because that would be fantastic.
I love that area as well over there.
Take care.
Bye.
Before we wrap this episode, I want to say something directly to a very specific group of listeners.
If you're in the military, any branch or forces, and if you've seen something that no one can explain, or if you're a national park ranger or forestry worker who's been told to stay quiet, if you're a pilot.
who's seen something strange down on the ground,
or if you're with the FBI, a federal agency,
or working intelligence,
and you stumbled upon something you're not allowed to talk about.
And if you're a firefighter, paramedic,
or search and rescue responder,
who's heard screams or found tracks that didn't make sense,
if you're in the logging industry on a remote oil field
or a trucker with government contracts,
and you've had something happen that you've never told a soul,
and if you're a biologist, a wildlife specialist, or a field researcher under contract,
who has found evidence you're not allowed to report,
if you're a pastor, a missionary, or someone on a spiritual retreat,
and you saw something that shook your faith,
or if you work in the shadows, CIA, NSA, or anything with clearance,
and you've seen what the public hasn't,
then I want to talk to you.
