    As a (mostly ) lifelong resident of beautiful British Columbia and having spent my early years in the heavily forested interior and coastal northern regions I can tell you with 100% confidence that any animal can easily hide and remain hidden if it wants to. A minimally intelligent Sasquatch could be standing literally meters from you and the only inkling you’d have that something was there would be a pungent odour, which would be dismissed as coming from a bear, skunk cabbage or some other composting organic matter.
    One thing that’s always made me open to the possibility of a Sasquatch is something my dearly departed grandfather asked me many many years ago. He said “In all my years of living in the bush and hunting big game from the northernmost regions to the southern Fraser Valley area I’ve never seen a dead bear, cougar, wolf or ANY predatory animals carcass laying around… but I know they’re there somewhere.”
    In the wild woods and mountains most animal encounters can be counted in seconds. I couldn’t count the times I was walking around hunting or getting to my favourite fishing spot on the river when an explosion of feathers and beating wings right beside me as a perfectly camouflaged grouse decided to scare me shitless! By the time my brain realized it was a damn bush chicken it was loooooong gone.
    So if someone finally stumbled upon a Sasquatch I wouldn’t be surprised at all.

    I worked with a BC guy up in Northern Alberta years ago. He was an avid hiker and camper in BC. He showed me pics and video of a pair of sasquatch he seen one day on a rock slide in BC. His jeep was stuck in a creek at the time, and he and his buddy watched the squatch for almost ten minutes. Although they were a long ways off in the video, I'm convinced they weren't bears. Bears couldn't go that far on hind legs on a rock slide.

Living within an hour of all these historic places, having hiked, camped, and explored (Chehalis River, Norrish Creek, Ruby and Garnet Creek FSR's, Sunshine Valley, and of course Harrison Lake area), it still boggles the mind how beautiful my home is.

    As an individual who has spent 30+yrs in the avian field. Dealing hands on with everything from Warblers to Birds of Prey. I have to say that BC is one of my favorite spots when i'm out in the field doing research. It is just breathtakingly beautiful folks. Your in absolute awe of how vast the territory is. But at the same time how lush and forested it is as well. Just an awesome spot for birding or any wildlife viewing for that matter. So that all said, there is no doubt in my mind that there are Squatches living in this habitat. It's ideal for them they would have everything they need and then some.

    There's a Sasquatch living in the Malcolm Knapp Research Forest in Maple Ridge , British Columbia. Know of 2 people that have seen it and had rocks thrown at them and followed while hiking the trails . I've heard something roar that resembled King Kong or a T Rex dinosaur from 5 kms away. I felt the soundwave hit and rumbled my guts . He's up there.

      Several years ago I stayed there in the woods on top of the mountain over night in my car. I haven’t noticed anything suspicious accept for when I got out of the car in the middle of night to take piss. It was so quiet as if I was in soundproof recording studio. I’d been multiple times in the woods at night and normally it has lots of forest sounds. But this time it was deadly quiet.

I grew up in SE Texas and I have heard tree knocks and the whoops all my life, but until recently didn't know what I was hearing. I scares me now to think how close I was to these creatures, and didn't know it. I believe they are real.

    Cool! My home province so rarely gets any time in the spotlight. It's hard to conceive of just how unbelievably immense our wilderness is. It's like an untouched continent all unto itself. With very nearly every type of biome and terrain imaginable from deserts to glaciers to tundra to temperate rain forests, etc... Our small, scattered communities barely interrupt any of it.
    If there's an undiscovered great ape, or any other large animal, then this is the best place that it could thrive and successfully hide in. And our first nations communities have been fostering stories and carving artifacts about Sasquatch supposedly going back many centuries or longer.
    I lean toward belief while remaining skeptical. Which is a ringing endorsement in such an proof scarce subject.

    I live on the edge of the Psayten wilderness area near the Colville national forest. I have never seen Squanito, nor tracks etc. My grandfather and uncle both said they saw one in the early 80's, a couple years apart. My uncle was the second to see one and he wouldn't hunt after that. Both men had sterling reputations for not lying or exaggeration. It's a much drier climate on this side of the mountains, I have always wondered if they saw a migrating squanito.

    I believe folks describe them as human-like, not Ape, when listening to encounters with these forest beings. They all describe having hair, not fur, when mentioning what they witnessed. I traveled to BC last year for a week of ATVing. My guide beleiievd in them when we trail road in Whistler Valley. He mentioned the forest valley had been harvested several times, but beyond the valley, ski condos and highways, these beings have all that land to explore.

If someone or a group is telling you they know what they are, they're either lying or been lied to. Sorry to tell you but Matthew Johnson is certifiable. These beings, whatever they are, are just fresh and blood hominids and not from portals or another planet. Johnsons a grifter who provided no evidence for his claims and no other researcher supports his views.

    Im 97.6%sure I was bieng followed by a Sasquatch when I was hitchiking through Canmore Alberta in October 1988. At dusk on the Trans Canada Highway and "something" ,was walking in the treeline 20 yards behind me to my right ,crushing leaves,snapping sticks as it walked.I almost sh*t myself in fear when I heard it,I ended up taking off my running shoes and walking in my socks( too make less noise on the highway ffs),then it wasnt there anymore.
    I distinctly remember those footfalls,they were a heavy step and maybe 2-3 seconds apart,when I stopped they stopped(thats when I took off my shoes and started sh#t) I started walking again scared outta my mind and ready to run like the wind...but then it was gone.
    I got picked up in barefeet holding my shoes.

    Pasayten valley southeast of Manning Park headquarters along monument 83 trail there was something enormous that walked by our camp in the middle of the night. We had been flown in by heli constructing the trail for some time so were nearing the international boundary as i recall. This was 1973 BC Parks Branch trail crew led by Joe Hilton. We were fully outfitted with tents etc but tended to sleep under large spruce trees. We had a canvas tarp up for kitchen duty. The ground shook when this thing came through. It was bush whacking but no sound of cracking branches or such which was very odd. Just these heavy earthshaking footsteps. We lay in our sleeping bags afraid to breath let along peer out from under the spruce. It was totally dark out so wouldnt have seen much anyway. Have always thought if it was a bear it would have trashed our food cache but nothing was disturbed. It was those heavy footsteps and ya we were sleeping on cheap foamies that put our ears right on the ground but whatever it was had to be gigantic. Have wondered all these years what that was.

Several Native Elders told me stories of seeing SASQUATCH and families of them up and around the reservation near Chilliwack and Harrison Lake. Many encounters of then near rivers, eating salmon, feeding their young, and sightings near the deep wooded areas near lakes.

I live in Glasgow Scotland and put a comment on the Alaskan Highway video about how it reminded me of the stunning scenery from my time driving from Calgary to Vancouver. When for the 3 years I made that trip, 2011,12 and 13, the main holiday destination was Okanagen. at Lake Okanagon. A small city which the people just made you feel so welcome, excellent hospitality. Great to see there is a BFO there with there spokesman Leon Thompson. brought back great memories. If I ever get back there again, I will look them up.

    In September of '22, a friend's son saw a Bigfoot between the ocean and the treeline in BC. He was alone on a hike and I realize that this sounds very dramatic, but he hasn't been the same since...
    He was 40, a HS science teacher and avowed skeptic. Now he feels very strongly that these creatures require legal protection. Fwiw, the overriding emotion at the time of the encounter - surpassing fear - was that of immense compassion.
    And I find this detail interesting: the Bigfoot was holding something in his right hand that looked like - and I'm quoting - 'a fur pocketbook', i.e., probably a dead mammal that was the size of a beaver, but he didn't say that's what it was.
    I wish I could ask him about it myself, but he only told his Mom and was upset that she talked about it to anyone else.
    Fwiw, I only know 2 people who have seen one and the 2nd is a close friend who saw one in the 80s and made cryptid research his life's work
    Wishing safety and freedom for ALL wildlife - and praying we survive the very real climate emergency we face.

    At about 57min on the powerline he mentioned the Deer lake trail.
    Im shocked he never mentioned the frightening encounter that occurred not that many years ago of a well known local couple that were bluff charged on that trail.
    I won't get into all the details here and most of the online info regarding it has been removed by request of them but I have much knowledge about it and have seen and heard things a few times as well.
    That trail is the far boundary and I've spent many creepy nights there.
    The lake campground has a long history or events and early morning long distance howls which I've also heard.
    Unfortunately the area above the lake was hit hard by logging a couple years ago.
