- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 พ.ย. 2024
- I interview one of out viewers named Rodney from Northern Utah. In 2016 Rodney was solo camping in the Monti Cristo Range of the Wasatch - Cache National Forest. His first night he heard some very frightening sounds coming from the forest that made him fear for his life. He had a night of terror that changed his life.
Keep Hiking!

First warning: gut feeling that something was going to go wrong. Second warning: the campsite he wanted was not available. Third warning: he felt like he was being watched. 🤷🏽♀️ The only way I stay after all that is if I have the national guard looking out for me.....probably not even then. Glad he's okay.
Why do people not listen to their ancestors warnings?
That's what our instincts are.
Well, not the national guard that protects the south border.
You’re not wrong.
True.
Thank you so much for sharing these testimonies with us. When you experience these being, it's so reassuring that we are not insane.
I don't get tired of saying it, hats off to solo campers! Just the thought of being alone out there is enough to make me uneasy, and these guys surviving Bigfoot encounters and all. Spooky and impressive at the same time!
I agree...I thought Rodney handled himself well...considering the situation! C
@Mary Wambua ,it's a scam
@David Henrique stop your damn scam!!! And get the f.... this channel!!
Lots of spam from some investment spam bot, how do these channels avoid it?
I do, not as much as I used too! When you are by yourself sometimes weird things happen!
When I had an experience, telling other people, I quickly learned that they don’t want to hear it. They asked me what kind of drugs was I on all the way to, “I don’t believe that.” I quashed my story for years. I was 17 when it happened. I was scared out of my mind. When I hear someone say, they were scared out of their mind over something…I feel like, they don’t really understand what that means. I was so scared, my mind was trying to grasp at ANYTHING that would make it make sense…and when I couldn’t, I really thought I must be going insane. That, my friends, is being scared out of your mind.
Scary and true
Wow! If it wasn’t for the testimony of the encountered , I would be skeptical.But the tales I hear on some Sasquatch Chronicle’s episodes, you can hear truth in their voices. Congratulations, you survived.
I believe you and I can't imagine going through any thing like that, in fact I'm sure that I could not handle it. You are very strong and brave.
Thank you Sharon- appreciate your knowledge and definition. I can’t imagine what that felt like… C
That's the frustrating part. People say they want to know things but when some of us know and try to tell we are left feeling just as lonely as before in our trauma and made fun of . I have known TERROR ALSO. TERROR BEYOND!! TERROR. I dont know how I'm still alive. I wrote a bit about my experiences on this thread. God bless you. I understand.
I, along with two seasoned police officers, had almost the exact same experience on Sleepy Cat mountain north of Meeker Colorado in 1981. None of us ever went back there again and these two officers never bow hunted again. I hunted in different areas but I only went one more time, but I absolutely refuse to sleep in a tent in the outback ever again. It was a horrible event. We had not seen each other for 25 years but when we did meet, the first thing was "what was that??? I have not heard anything close to that sound ever again, but this guys description fit it perfectly.
You heard a fox over forty years ago and refuse to camp ever since. Hilarious
You have not spent much time in the deep forests. This was only one encounter out of several.
@@je862 No. I have met with one some 30 years later but never with the other. Something happened to all of us. We all changed in a matter of minutes due to this event.
Oh not good. Gives me chills.
I had a similar experience north of winnibigosh in Minnesota 15 years ago. No whooping, but definitely screaming like a woman on steroids. And no, it wasn't a cougar, fox, owl, or anything else people tellnautilus. Sheer volume of the screams resonated in my chest, and it didn't just make the hair on my neck go up but made me feel nautious.
It pays to pay attention to your intuition. He felt uneasy with the empty tent, had a sense of foreboding that something bad was going to happen even before he arrived at the camp, and felt he was being watched while at the site but he still decided to camp there. He ignored all the signs that this was not the place to camp in rememberance of his wife.
Kind of a sunk cost fallacy situation. He went there with a purpose in mind. It could be delayed but that would take more time and he's already there so ignore the gut instinct and sense of foreboding
uneasy feelings are a 7th sense an old timer once told me.
My brother in law, now deceased, grew up in a cabin in the mountains of southeastern Kentucky. Said one night the family heard a ruckus on the front porch. They ran to the door. A big foot had grabbed a puppy off the front porch. When they opened the door it ran off dropping the puppy. Knowing my brother in law there's no way he makes that up.
DaveHenshaw ✨My heart felt condolences, your brother in law lived in a place of high populations of the Sasquatch and other beings !
Ohio , Pensilvania in particular have a lot of sightings and interactions.
The Sasquatch are a people they are in general very respectful of us and try to stay away. They get in trouble when they are hungry. Like us we aren’t very nice when we are hungry too!
There’s still many that don’t want to face spiritual reality…. they’re stuck in their materialism .
Your welcome to visit and see what I find in Southern Ontario Canada we have everything here!
God Bless 🙏🏻
ThankYou !
✨🌲🦶🏿🌳🧚♂️🌲🐕🦺😊🕊️✨
I'm so glad he dropped the pupper.
Who leaves a puppy on a porch?
I live in Virginia close to South Eastern Kentucky! I live within 1hr from the Kentucky state line! I'm 49 and been all over these mountains in Western Virginia and the only thing I have seen is black bear and one big black panther! I didn't think panthers exist here but yeah they do! It doesn't surprise me what stays hidden in these mountains! Sorry about your Brother in Law!
Sorry for your loss. Glad the puppers was ok.
I just don't see how Rodney was able to go back to sleep after that first "whoop"! I would have freaked! Great story as always, Chris.
I agree....but, he was emotionally drained from the lose of his wife...and tough week at work.
@@basecampchris I think he is legit, and he had a horrible week for sure. I might have passed out!!
He fell asleep because there was no reason not to after a long time of listening and it was not repeated. A 'Whoop' does not sound as threatening as some other sounds one might hear. He also fell asleep after hearing the screams but I could see if he was up there because he lost his wife he'd be so emotionally drained from the previous week of taking care of his deceased wife he'd be completely exhausted. And one more thing - if he felt he was hearing a Bigfoot that would not be as frightening as hearing a grizzly because Bigfoot is not very much known for attacking humans but just leaving them be in their tents until morning, at least that is what most of these stories relate.
@@asherhouseman6838 My comment was no disrespect to Rodney. I realize what he had been through and what kind of state of mind he was in. It was about me thinking that no way I could have gone back to sleep.
@@lindadonahue9279 , all good. :)
I'm glad people here are open minded to accept that there a things we don't know about. We are here to support and understand scary encounters. Thanks Chris great interview.
No kidding right! There are so many things we just don't understand, so for us humans to be so full of pride and say that this thing or that experience never existed or ever happened is the height of arrogance.
Pretty amazing with all these helicopters/planes/satellites/trail cam, not a single “big foot” captured..
I am always encouraged when I hear that someone who had such an experience TOLD SOMEBODY. I think too many people are afraid of ridicule and would rather DIE than be mocked by their peers. But he didn't ask for it, wasn't looking for it, and yet it HAPPENED. I have much respect for those who speak truth, regardless of the consequences.
My heartfelt condolences to you, Rodney. You seem like a man of real character. God bless you, and keep speaking truth, brother!!
Chris, you are such a compassionate story teller; you have a real gift.❤️🇨🇦
This man really had a very terrifying experience; thank goodness he was well armed; clearly they didn’t want him there and wanted him gone. Thank goodness he wasn’t harmed.
Another great story Chris. I had to go turn on a couple of lights. I've camped solo for years and sometimes your mind will play tricks especially being out alone. I sleep easier now that I have two dogs. If I hear something and they don't freak, then 'Im ok. I've had a couple of really strange occurrences but was able to explain them in the morning once I had a chance to look around. Your informant clearly believes what he experienced. The empty tent should have been a clue. Someone else left in a hurry and decided to skip breaking down the tent.
It's really good to hear the person telling their story too. Good addition to your awesome storytelling.
I might be a little crazy but I'm literally sitting out here in the AZ desert ready for a solo overnight camping experience listening to these stories 😆
So, how's it going ?😳
@@evien3790 My allergies killed me and a couple of curious coyotes came by, other than that nothing crazy 👍
The AZ desert is easy. Love camping in the desert.
Were you in the superstitions?
Same. New River area to be more precise.
Thanks Chris. So sad he lost his wife, that must be devastating. Great story about the Bigfoot though. Coming so close to complain of his presence in 'their' territory, but he'd been there lots of times! That's odd. I wonder what the story was with the abandoned tent? Probably similar! Well told my friend and rather scary too. Happy Mothers Day to all the Mom's in your family and kindest regards from Ray in UK
That is a very hard lose...as far as the tent goes...something happened with the tent nobody leaves a tent by accident...it's possible something scared them off....and they left in a hurry. ( w/o the tent )
I was so confused by your mother's day comment until I read that you're from the UK.
We celebrate that the second Sunday in May.
It's easy for me to remember that because I was born on mother's day.
I'm very sick right now, not that my brain ever works right anyway. Lol
@@michelewalburn4376 💝
Big foot would be very scary but it seems they just want to scare you away! One thing never throw things back at them because you are asking for mor terrifying happenings. They will chase you and throw bigger stones at you at amazing speeds. You can make them mad and they really would be unpredictable. Now a Bear is not the same thing! They are extremely dangerous. They def are not afraid of killing you and drawing attention they don’t think like that they are not concerned with anything they just come after you if they choose to! You really have a problem if the bear comes after you! Bear Spray discourages them but you better have a place picked out to get to safety. Always lock car doors they will get in your car easily and tear it apart! They look for food that drives them on!
What a terrifying event for Rodney at such an emotional time in his life. The feeling that there is nothing else to do but wait for daylight. In a way reflects to his state of mind, I thought. I am happy he shared his story with you and you told us in your special way at your special spot above the river. 👣
Well, at least one mystery in this story is pretty well solved: why the tent in the campsite he first wanted to use was empty. The Bigfoot scared the crap out of them, too!
No kidding!
That’s what I thought, too!
What a scary nightmare this guy went through. Great story, Chris! I can't imagine what he went through waiting for the sun to rise. I wonder if the tent that was in the original spot that he had wanted was quickly abandoned after a similar experience? I'd have no problem leaving a tent behind if I had to leave quickly at night. I doubt I'd come back for it. This man seems like a great guy...glad he has sons, and he can enjoy their company and continue to go camping. Thanks for sharing the story, and I really enjoy hearing the story from the actual person who shared it with you.
@@kkjj4508 A little up close and personal encounter doesn't stop everyone from enjoying the outdoors. It didn't stop me and my best friend, but I'm pretty sure his older brother never camped there again. We camped on the farm where we encountered sasquatch and its clan for 5-6 years after our encounters. He moved out of state and that ended our camping there.
Always trust your instincts, always. I learned it the hard way but I'm glad I learned it. Thanks Chris another great story.
Absolutely! your gut instincts cant be ignored. C
You’re right, NEVER ignore your gut; it’s ALWAYS RIGHT. It’s kept us alive ; it’s the ones who ignore their instincts or don’t have them, that don’t survive. This man was lucky to survive.
Wow, it's a frightening experience. I'm glad he was ok. Rest in peace, his wife. Thanks, Chris, for another great history. Stay safe 🙏
Thanks Chris! This was one of the scariest. I loved hearing the man's first hand account of his terrifying experiences. He was so brave through it all n to keep going back is unreal. I don't think I could have gone back out camping there knowing what is out there too. Thank you for this story!!! I hope you can get your Camper out there soon. It's so fun camping with you n hearing all your scary true stories!!! Please stay safe always.
You're a great story teller. The tree part reminded me of the time, while living on a game reserve in South Africa, we woke in the morning to find signs of the elephants having moved through our camp. The weirdest part, was that an elephant had up rooted a tree, a small one thankfully and placed it very nicely on the bonnet of our car. Like a calling card! They also stepped over a 5 foot wall, into the kitchen garden to eat all the produce.
Elephants seem to be very compassionate and polite “ beings” ; they may not have opposable thumbs, but they deserve our respect.
I’m thinking we are too ignorant and don’t really understand or comprehend that we share this planet with other very intelligent beings; we are NOT the only intelligent species on this planet on land or in the seas..
We SHOULD are-evaluate our assumptions and should feel ASHAMED by the way people have treated other compassionate, intelligent beings that we SHARE this planet with… the atrocities committed against them, breaks my heart.
Hey Chris, great story thanks to both of you!
I must say this fellows story has many similarities to my experience.
I even fell back asleep after my incident, exactly same reason, exhausted and tired I was totally spent and it was pitch dark outside.
I will need to share my story,oddly similar in many ways.
Cheers from okanagan valley 🇨🇦
Thanks Rick! if you'd like to share your story send to basecampchris2@gmail.com
OK valley where I live would love to hear your story for sure and curious where
My encounter was followed by utter astonishment.And then sleep,go figure.
In 1979 I had a similar experience while camping at Eleanor Lake, BC on the top of the mountain behind Naramata in the Okanagan; it was a beautiful spot and a beautiful night. But…About 2:am, we were awakened by something that smelled horrible and was circling our tent; the dog was going bananas and I did everything I could possibly do to keep him quiet,
At about 5:am, the smell left ; we literally rolled up our tent and threw the whole kit and kaboodle in the trunk of the car and fled. We never went back; even though it was such a pristinely beautiful place, we just couldn’t go back up there again.
They may simply be an advanced race and have some way of emanating certain waves that put us beings in Homo Sapien bodies to sleep.
I have heard that scream as well. It was 30 yards away down in a ravine. I lived at that very spot for some years and worked fire clearing all around the area. Cougars, bears, bobcats, etc. all came through at one point or another. The screams sounded like a woman being brutally murdered. I ended up having to call the rangers and law enforcement. But there were no signs of anything. They knew and trusted me but that call got me some funny looks.
In 2004 I came across a hairy man creature on the other side of the mountain. I didn't immediately connect the two.
You heard a mountain lion
@@dustinrogers5384 I have lived and worked in the backcountry for over 40 years. Every year the mountain lions walk past my place. They scream through the evening and some times during the day. It was not a mountain lion. Love you internet goofs. Lol!
Great story and thank you to both of you men!! My heart goes out for the man who lost his wife!! Well done video all around. Thank you!!
Wow Chris!!! Rodney sure was a brave man to stay in that tent that entire night all alone with all that whooping & screaming going on!!! NOT ME my friend!!! NO WAY?!! NO WAY!!! NO WAY!!!
Thanks Chris for telling Rodney's story/encounter & a HUGE THANKS to Rodney himself for sharing it with all of us!!
God bless you Chris & everyone here!!
Stay safe & warm...& KEEP HIKING 😊👀😉😁💪👣👍😱🤗🌞✌️

I would never solo camp and I don’t plan to camp in a tent ever again, I prefer to experience camping vicariously via TH-cam 😊
Sorry, hit wrong button. When I bought my cabin, my dog (a Yorkie, not a big dog for protection) were the only ones up there. We went for a hike, and I literally walk into their habitat. Yeah that feeling of being watch was so intense, I got the heck out of there. Still did not know about them at that time. Moving many years later and after research, I now know all about them. It is the most eye opening experience you will ever have. EVER. So once again my new dog and I were again alone at the cabin. I had invited the Xanue pronounced Jon nu, to visit me at the cabin. My bathroom lights fuse was blown so I had a small battery lantern in there. Middle of the night, had to go. As I walked into the bathroom, before turning on the lantern,. There on the floor was a big Orb. It disappeared. I told it to come back. Oh it did alright. First thing in the morning. I had just woken up when I had a growl in the cabin. The bigfoot was cloaked. It then told me it's name. I, of course was frightened at first, but it left because it knew I was frightened. I have had many experiences since then. There are 3 different kinds of bigfoot. The Xanue ,(the good ones). The Treykon ( the bad ones, they will kill you and eat you). And the XuXiku (fallen angels, they are bad too.). What you experienced up by Monte was the Xanue. They are para-normal and can cloak. They are more human looking. They came to our planet because their planet was dying. We can connect and I can teach you all about them if you would like,. They will then know you and protect you from any harm when you are in the forest. Also what one knows, they all know. I could tell you stories for hours,. It is so amazing, like I said it will change your life for the better. They have brought me to God. God has asked them to help our human race to learn to reconnect with God. I also have eye witnesses who have seen them in my house. I also have videos of my Guardian Angel in my house. And for the none believers,. That's Ok,. Because they don't know what they are missing out on. Happy Squatchin
You should start telling them on your TH-cam channel
That's pretty insane but also interesting. I have wondered if they were actually high technology beings.
Riveting! Thank you for playing the whole witness story. You are a great storyteller, a pleasure to listen to, but there is nothing like hearing first-person testimony. And you filmed in a stunning location-great episode all around. Keep hiking
AWEsome _ Thank you!
We believe you. So sorry about your loss. Thank you for sharing your story.
Bless his heart ❤️ Maybe people became afraid and drove off leaving their tent in the space him and his wife camped at.
I spent 6 months living off the land in the Salmon River wilderness. The only time I felt scared was when a ranger walked into my camp. He turned out to be a great old guy. He had homemade dandelion wine. We got drunk and passed out by the campfire.
Just love the good clean storytelling, the gorgeous cutaways to the beautiful views, you bring in the music in a wonderful subtle way, all brings back the best memories of my life camping for a month at a time every summer in the Northern Rocky mountains with my Dad off trunk and ranger roads.❤. Of course the beer is the cherry on top! 😂. Only had one truly eerie experience, have never forgotten. I was about 11yo, knew something was there we’d hiked about 2 miles up a trail off a trunk road…my Dad said “lets go”…we kids didn’t question and we left quickly. 40 years later and it’s fresh in my mind.
As a former entertainment television producer, for your interviews, before you start the recording, just tell the subject--- I’m just going to let you tell the story, I will not interrupt unless there’s a need for clarity, in that case I’ll stop you. Because this is not a conversation, but a recounting of an experience there will be pauses and breaks some times by the subject and that’s ok. If you let the subject know you won’t interrupt then they will just keep going at their pace. You can always do edits later. You can tell them, when I get into production I may make an edit or two just to speed things up. Normally an interviewer will stay completely silent while a person recounts their tale, but I think your occasional grunts and singular exclamations work. Just tell the subject I may make a sound but unless I tell you to stop telling your story, don’t. I hope this is helpful, not critical, you’re doing an amazing job, just pointers on interviewing techniques that allow for editing and make the subject fluent in their retelling. Stay blessed!!
44 minutes, love it, like the longer storyline. 💯👍
Thanks 777! c
Hello Chris 👋 I've been waiting all week for this. It was worth the wait 👍
Thank you! Opal!
Thanks for the story Chris all the best from Wales UK take care buddy ..
Thanks 👍C
Chris always gets me when the person is telling thier story he kinda whispers "yeah" and its always real breathy lol "yeahhhhhh" 😂
Chris,
Love, the way you are doing your stories now, where you talk about it somewhat, and then you have the actual person talking about what happened to them in real time. Thank you again.
I just love this.....your open minded approach to these incidents people tell you about....I for one appreciate you! Glad you survived all that crazy weather! Nice to be back outside with you ☺
I have seen videos where crows mimic animals and people. But to have a woman screaming 😱 takes it to a whole new level! I can't imagine the fear he felt that night! I was scared for him listen😮ing to this story. I camped many times in my younger years. Thankfully I never experienced anything like this! Cats being hurt also sounds like a woman screaming. Glad he was OK! Thanks for the stories. Be safe out there everyone!
I have to say, I thought that part was very spooky because it occurred to me that maybe they are imitating the sound of a woman screaming because a man might run out to see if he can help a woman in distress, like they were doing it to lure him out. Maybe not, but the thought of it - yikes!
Super scary!! I won't go camping anytime soon. 😮. I find his story to be credible and I think it takes courage to tell a story like this. Alot of people are naysayers and laugh at such things. It's taking a risk for people to not think one is wacko. I've had a couple of paranormal experiences in my life and am real careful who I talk about them too. 😊. Another great story Chris!!! Stay safe!! ❤️
i've dealt with negative ghosts before but i couldn't imagine dealing with something flesh and blood real like that
Dealing with Ghosts is no easy task either! C
@@basecampchris
I have to say that ghosts and Sasquatch are both on the same level of not being physical beings. Well, not by our standards of physicality.
There have been numerous sightings of these entities we call Bigfoot. Many sighting are by hunters and other armed people. Throughout all of the years of these sightings, we should have the physical evidence to no doubtedly proove their existence. But we don't. I guarantee that these entities are supernatural, interdemensional beings such as Skinwalkers and. YES. UFO'S AND ALIENS. Kind of hard to kill something that is here, but isn't here, in our realm of existence. At this point in time, there is alot that the general population doesn't know or understand.
I like the short clips of the scenes around you as you are speaking. It is like being there with you and looking around as we listen to the story.
March 24th 2023
I've heard a lot of stories of encounters with the Bigfoot- Sasquatch...
This story pretty much kept me on the edge, and I have to honestly say I'm glad that this gentleman live to tell about it!
I'd say when you have that bad feeling inside, we know it as a gut feeling ... It's always best to heed to it!
If you feel like you're being watched, you usually are!!
But I honestly wouldn't go back to that same area knowing that all that happened to me in just one night... Usually that's a huge message from the Bigfoot- Sasquatch. It's simply because they don't want you there in their area. It's a real blessing that they were not super aggressive with this gentleman and physically chased/ ran him out of the woods. In other words those were just warnings to him to get out and stay out of their area.
Believe you, me I know this from personal experience!!
Loved the encounter story Chris!! 🙏
Thanks for sharing it with us viewers!
You're the best!!
Keep hiking!!👍👍
That was fun to listen too Chris. My condolences to him for his loss of his wife, but he shared some great memories camping with her. Enjoy the beer.
Thank you Rodney, and Chris. This was so scary, and I believe his testimony. Also, I love the background pictures.
The PICTURES!!!!
I've been looking forward to hearing today's story! Thanks, Chris! :)
Love the Monte Christos!! It's gorgeous, been there. :):
Just made our reservations for the Estes Park Bigfoot Festival, such an awesome place! Hopefully the Colorado spring snow won't mess with our plans.
That sounds like a Good Time! BCC
We live here in Idaho, and grew up camping in some extreme situations. My husband and I are both very experienced campers, hunters and into fishing.
We've had a few scary encounters, but not with anything "weird or supernatural." Just mountain lions, bear, and even some odd situations with people. It's been enough to make me look back and ask how the hell I got out of some of these situations alive. 😂
@kvn1031 you're "more on the experienced side of camping" because you haven't encountered animals? Is that what you're saying? Really confusing comment. 😆
His story reminds me of a bad backpacking experience i had in wyoming with my wife. We got up there late one night on a dirt road up to the forest noticed the cattle all in a circle facing outwards. Gave us a bad feeling decided not to camp that night. Went back the next day entire time felt like something was watching us on the trail. Camped next to a lake. That night as we were laying in our tent something came into our camp was eating right outside our tent we could hear the crunches of whatever it was eating. Had us terrified. Then eventually it just left. Havent had an inkling to camp since.
I can't believe that people still sleep in tents. The way things are today, I want some steel between me and the outside world. How is a nylon tent going to stop even a dull knife? Nope. Either a tow behind, RV or a full-size van for me. The last time I slept in a tent was the late 1960's in the Gila National Forest in NM. Even then, times were changing, and it just didn't feel safe.
Demons or evil spirits .
@@thebusterdog921 Yes, same here. I’d be terrified to sleep in a tent anywhere these days. So many psychos out there! A nice van would do
@@susanboger7874 OR worse... humans.
@@faithradaall of it! Unreal the way people treat each other and all this stuff going on. We need to stick together but separate! It's such a sad mess!
Great stories, Chris! I happened upon your channel in December and got hooked! I started back at the first Bigfoot story and listened to each one (and a few ghost stories as well). I enjoyed it so much that I had my daughter, home from college, listen to one while we did a puzzle. She said they were too scary because of the dramatic pauses and how you told the story; it built too much suspense. :D This new thing of including the call at the end of the video is super cool. At first, I thought it would be redundant because you already tell the stories so well, what else is there? But it does add a richness to it to hear that real person tell what happened, and I love all the varying accents. Thanks for the hours/days of enjoyment! I look forward to Sunday night, knowing there will be a new story.
That’s great- appreciate it! C
Another great story...! Thanks for sharing Chris...! Even though he was "extremely" well armed, it had to take a lot for Rodney to have stayed out there with everything that had taken place... And for that, he has my upmost respect...! It also shows, just how much his wife meant to him and that he would still do anything for her...! Now that's what I cal love...! Peace out...!
I have had many encounters with the forest people over my 73 years life. Most of the time they only want you to leave the area. Other times they are just curious about you. I've only been hurt once, by them and that was with a thrown 3" stick that hit me in my forehead. Still have the scare over my right eye. This happened at Upper Twin Lakes in CA, 1:30 AM
Bridgeport or Mammoth?
@@MPjustaman, Bridgeport.
Chris. Even BEFORE listening, or I should say, watching this, I want to say thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is literally therapeutic to me, as in all of your videos man. LOL.
Wow, thank you!
As Always, Great video!!! Keep up the good work. Stay safe and God Bless you all. 🇺🇲🇺🇲
I’m not a camping expert, but I can tell Chis I experienced by the way he constantly checks out his surroundings throughout his story telling - and I don’t blame him one bit considering some of these tales! keep up the great job, I love listening to them whilst I’m tucked up in bed 😀👍
Thanks for sharing that story Chris.
Thanks for listening...appreciate it! C
Great storytelling!! Just came across your videos recently and find them very entertaining! When i was younger , im in my 60s now, i would solo camp out on an island on a river that wasnt too far from my place ! I would take my boat and tent out there for a night or two! Never had any problems and figured something or someone would have to swim or boat out to it and i would hear them! Loved the peacefullness and getting a nice fire going! I did bring my hand gun with me but never had to use it!! Eventually brought my soon to be wife out to the campsite and nine months later had our first child!! Keep up the great videos!!
I know I would not want to tent in the woods. Too scary for me.
Thank you Chris, have a good night.
I love hearing stories from Utah. I don't live too far from that campsite. Without the moon at night you can't even see your hand in front of your face. Lots of Courage solo camping.
Same way in the UP of Michigan, pitch black. And the stars are oh so brilliant...
Chris, i very much enjoy your channel. Obviously there are others that do a similiar thing on their channel(s), but what separates you from thos that seem to have the most followers is that you tell the stories in a positive, friendly and welcoming manner. The others that im referencing, one seems filled with anger and the other seems to continually try to exclude people who dont think like him (which i dont). Their channels are not without merit, but I prefer yours. Keep hiking and keep telling stories!
You, sir, are at least as good a story teller as Mr. Ballen. And he is VERY GOOD! Thank you for the video AND audio of this encounter.
Great Telling of the people's experiences. Look forward to the next story, and the next.
They did not want to hurt him. They just wanted him to leave there area. Thanks for the story.
The Sasquatch might be alerting humans to stay away from certain areas because of other, bad, entities in the area… They might actually be the good guys..
@@monicageorgson4870 uhm??? Still they NEED to be respected and AVOIDED.
I heard mumbling in my experience too. I was thinking that must be what we sound like to them. If watching from aways away they only hear mumbling. Maybe they are mimicking us.
That is a good guess as what they may be doing! C
Thanks I really like how you add the interview in also👍
Glad you liked it!
I've had some scary encounters or unknown weird things happen in the middle of the night while camping in the Uinta's. You're super vulnerable out there!
Very high and Wild up there!
Moose Drool! Love the name of the beer today!
Crazy Name! C
The same company also makes a beer called trout slayer.
I don't like name moose drool. Yuck ewe. Won't see me drinking that. Makes me feel like I would throw up. Yuck oh no no no.😮
My favorite beer! Missoula Montana.
I like you brother... reckon people send ya stories must love ya too, awesome!! Cheers to you my friend, thank you
Really enjoy your character, stories, how you also explain them in cool different places, you cool brother... though i cannot drink those crazy beers you drink... respect it ha... but cheers no doubt... n as ya know... stay safe, aware hold jesus near
Thank you Chris and Rodney for this terrifying story! Best channel ever!
My husband was a solo hiker/camper....I don't like staying in a strange city in a hotel!! Kudos to all solo campers🤜🤛
So very sorry for your loss sir.
Thanks for sharing your experience. I know it isn’t easy especially when those closest to us, doubt our word.
Am glad u didn’t let it alter your life permanently. I believe they are just curious territorial beings, incapable of not spying on humans when we enter their “realm”.
I believe I had an encounter as a young toddler. Nothing else makes sense…I’ve only shared story w my parents and my partner.
They just cannot fathom, and I agree, how I can replay the memory of a camping trip we took when I was barely 2 yrs old!? Which then sprouted a reoccurring dream/nightmare for the next 7-9+ years. I couldn’t name the subject of my dream as a child because I didn’t know what it was-i referred to it as “the screechy monkey man” and still rem almost every detail of dream, 40 years later. While watching the countless Bigfoot related videos when I became homebound, and the resemblance I saw brought back all those memories, as if a dam broke.
Take care
Stay safe
🕊
Wow, what beautiful scenery ! Too many beautiful still shots, to pick a favorite ! BEAUTITUL !!!
I'm completely obsessed with your stories and this session is TOTALLY AWESOME!. I really dig the story telling as you normally do but the interview is the icing on the cake. I truly truly enjoy your videos. Great work, keep it up and happy telling on your next and the next and the next. Cheers!
Glad you enjoy it!
Thanks Chris! Great story. I always get excited to see you have another video up. Thanks for all you do. Looking forward to your next adventure.
Awesome, thank you Linda!
Blessings Chris. Stay safe.
Thank you! C
That's funny ! Reminds me of scary camping stories we would sit around and tell during my childhood!
Hi Chris, glad to see you again. He was one nervy gutsy guy to hang out there the whole time. Don't think I would want to have a bad disagreement with him. Good thing for him the Sasquatch there weren't so mean like a few of them are or he wouldn't have survived. By the way the background nature scenes were absolutely beautiful. What a disgusting experience to have when he was just wanting to have closure with sweet memories. Well okay Chris, I'll catch you later down the trailer somewhere, by now.
Chris I've been following your channel for a very long time. Back when you were doing gear reviews. It is so great to see your channel finally BLOW UP. You found the winning formula. Congratulations my friend, you earned it. If you ever want to take go look for Yucca Man in Joshua Tree, you'll be intrigued by the story
I appreciate that!
As more encounters happen, more people will become aware of Sasquatches and they need to be respected just like bears, moose, elk or anything in the wild.
I'm a believer. I've never had an encounter but I have had that creepy feeling when hiking alone.
Don't bear have big feet? Love the stories though.
Amen.
@@derikclose1421 Yes they do but so do big hairy humans. Stories can be completely true. You didn't say otherwise. Lots of people think that stories are all pure fiction. They've never heard that stories can be true.
Good personage connectably friendly relatable person .
I'm listening to you...
It’s interesting hearing the two versions of the same story. A story tellers art version and the raw version. Thank you. 🇨🇦🍀
Terrifying experience. I cant imagine going thru all of that. The whoops were bad enough, but then the blood curdling screams - wow. Another good one, Chris!
Mountain lions (and Florida panthers) scream like that. I've heard them 2-3 times, also saw and heard one growl from about 10-12 feet away behind our Army tent (the kind of sound that makes everyone jump inside their tent no questions asked and not go back out again until daylight). Seen the tracks in fresh snow; their shape, stride, and habit unmistakable. Quiet, sensitive, observant people (like myself) can always 'feel' when they are watching (i.e. stalking) us. How I survived my several experiences with them is miraculous. I also camped out in the open (no tent) in the remotest depths of the Okefenokee Swamp, the first night in the wild surrounded by huge alligators lurking just a few feet away, grunting so loudly and persistently that I could not sleep. And the worst part is that they would stop and become dead quiet every time I lifted my head trying to see in the inky darkness. So they too were watching very closely and probably hungrily. Another thing: Mountain lions usually hang around good water sources like creeks, rivers and swamps.
Even smaller animals, like Lynx, Bobcat, raccoons, can make some really freaky noise. When it’s pitch black out, and you are hyper sensitive to it.
Not sure about martins, and fisher. But owls are cool.
@@billpetersen298 The entire weasel family doesn't make much noise. I was priveleged to see a fisher once; a gorgeous creature, and very quiet! A "bobcat" btw, is a Lynx -- Lynx Rufous.
@@billpetersen298 Yes, I once lost a night's sleep listening to some fat and sassy Arkansas swamp raccoons that sounded exactly like a group of drunk moonshiners. I was convinced our lives were in serious danger, lol.
@@davidflitcroft7101 Lynx rufus, Lynx canadensis.
I haven't been around a Rufus, but the canadensis makes a hell of a noise, when threatened.
Yes! Raccoons can make the awfulest sounds when fighting. I had gone out to my garage to get something around 11:00 at night. When I heard the awfulest growling & screeching coming from the back of it!( scared the hecout of me!) I ran into the garage, closed & locked.the door. I was terrified!). After a few mins I started to laugh. I realized it was only a group of young racoons, fighting over the ripe pears in our tree, back there.( made me feel foolish!).
Hi, I'm from the UK, not a hunter, outdoorsman or anything but I have the greatest respect for the people who have these experiences and the way they relate to you and the emotional and vivid way YOU tell them. Just because I've not seen a Yeti or Bigfoot doesn't mean I mock people who have. These people always seem "professionals", reliable, known to be very honest. Why would they lie, they have much to lose and nothing to gain. I'm glad I'm here and not there😂😂
i love listening to that guy's stories. they are so creepy and relaxing at the same time. also i love brown ale. so i gotta go and grab one outta the fridge before starting this video.
Thank you NiceGuy Eddie! C😉
Criss I am 56 years young and fished /camped all over B.C. i grew up in Hope BC and lived right at the bace of the sasquatch caves. I was fishing for trout at a place called samalo on the Skagit river .standing in the water flicking my dragon fly nimf into the river and behind me out from the bushes walked a skinny looking bear like beast ' it stood there looking at me and then simply walked down river I was stunned at what i had saw and sat on shore to collect myself before I decided that it was the oddest looking bear i had ever seen in my life .now some twenty years later, well i think we both know what i had saw. Thanks I listen to your show before bed almost nightly. God bless.
I so forward to your videos you’re such a great storyteller… I wish they were more frequent I know you’re busy though… I love the Bigfoot experiences.
Moose drool lmaooo. That's hilarious! Chris you always keep me entertained. Thank you so much
Sounds as though he’s lucky to have survived 😳 amazing story cheers Chris 👌🏽
I love all your stories!!!
I REALLY appreciate the time and effort that you put into ALL of your videos!! Your extra effort doesn't go unnoticed.
I really enjoy hearing the stories from the people who experienced these things. I always marvel at how well you listen to the people and then retell them PERFECTLY!!!!
The area we hike to camp is about 1.5 miles from parking area. When we get there no birds, no squirrels, nothing. Nothing ever moving in day time. But at night we get surrounded by coyotes, gray owls, and other animals moving at night. The owls come in close surrounding and hooting at us in the darkness but we've never seen them even with flashlights
Thank You Chris. I believe this man I saw two of them in Waihole Oahu Hi, I'm glad your bringing your camper on the next camp safe.Journeys Aloha and God Bless You Sister Chrissy Honolulu Hi 💙⚘🙏
There have been MANY eyewitness reports to the RMSO ( Rocky Mountain Sasquatch Organization), over the years from people camping/hiking in this area, actually some recent reports as well. My condolences to Rodney on the loss of his Wife.🕊
I just saw this now that was your wife reaching out to warn you believe in listen she still with you she can't talk but she's still with you great story thank you
The first indication that “all was not well”, was that empty two man tent, with no one around. They either “got the hell out of dodge” so fast, they left their tent or “something got them”. A good reason to go to another site.
Great story .. wow he was very brave .
Geez I would not go back .
Good thing he is still alive
My family has forty acres in the mountains very close to his location where this happened. I have experienced two things I cannot explain there.This area from Monte Christo northward until Logan Canyon has lots of Sasquatch sightings and encounters!!I would bet his encounter was near six bit spring……just a guess
Those back ground pictures are absolutely beautiful!!
Another awesome story 👍
Thank you Chris 😎
Awesome - Glad you enjoyed it! C
Hey Chris good Sunday to you my friend. It's good to see you. Also I would love to see more camping videos as well I love the snow camping and boondocking. Ect but I love all your videos.
Interesting to hear a fellow ogdenite's story, l have hunted the Curtis creek area in the past. Pineview is local resevoir about 8 miles from Ogden.
Very coll...looks like great country up there! C
Great story Chris that story by Rodney seems real enough to me. I really think he had a Squatch encounter. Keep up the good work.
Thanks! Will do!
Chris, it would be great if you did an interview with Don Jeffery Meldrum! He lives next to my dad in Idaho. Super nice guy and his “Sasquatch” book is amazing.
