Okay now this is the most amazing content I've seen so far and I watched EVERY wildlife/exploring documentary out there. My guy your intelligence and integrity really shows through and makes yours videos so immersive, the cinematography, the effort, you calm voice (to be honest I'd be too scared to watch these alone if it weren't for your calm voice), the handsome videographer, the scenery...all so impressive. Thank you for stayinh real and not faking shit, photoshopping or acting like a lunatic on steroids lol, you're truly one of a kind and you obviously have the talent for these sort of things. The way you capture your feelings honestly...wow makes me feel like I'm there I mean, you accomplished something 90% of people never would dare to do and please make more of these...fuck it, make it a series, make a 100 episodes! I've just finished watching and on the weekend I've invited a whole friend group over and we're watching it for a movie night
This comment is on behalf of a lot of us ‼️‼️‼️we were all thinking all of this but just Dont type it all out like that so thanks for writing what everyone else is thinking xxx
Central Pa ----Olympic Peninsula. I have had 2 sightings in my life, one in 1987, and 2021. 3 years ago, a 'tree peeker" scared our dogs into instantly wetting themselves and whining once that black head popped out for 1 second (with bed head) behind the fir tree and then into a game trail to disappear. in 2017, an incessant window tapper, got my friends and me to chase this thing around the fields behind our house. Zipping by us in the darkness we all just got glimpses of a 5 foot tall, incredibly fast, black figure. Fresh plowed fields are not easy to run in, and this thing was running circles around us, toying with us for fun. About once a year, I still hear vocalizations that are unmistakable.
I drove through the Blue mountains in OR on the way out (Interstate closed at La Grand, had to detour over Tollgate in the mts. I would have stayed a night but there was already 14 inches of snow and blizzard conditions that night.
The birds sounds are one thing we hear all the time. Song birds on our trail hikes that suddenly start making weird calls. Once, right before a large rock landed next to me and the wife on a trail, I asked her, "do you hear that bird?, It almost sound like a bird was trying to imitate a kookaburra from down under. Then, "booom!" the rock landed with debris actually dispersing in the air around it. I am always brave until that happens.
The thought of Seeing them using their arms to run with like one of those monkeys with the wheels on their hands ( movie)-is so creepy to me.!! And that they are so damn fast and huge. Truly impressive
Dude your Bigfoot documentaries are so good, I am here for it 😊 I’ve always thought the Freeman footage was one of the most authentic pieces of evidence out there.
And tell me something did you see any Bigfoots no you didn't you saw a guy at night time telling you heard noises gee go figure in a wood loaded with bear Bobcats deer in any other animal you can think of and yet you're convinced he saw something
@@peatmoss4415 The circumstances of that film alone debunk it. Then upon objective analysis the entire hoax falls apart. The Bigfoot phenomenon is real, but Patterson was a scammer. Bob Gimlin was the most important part of Patterson’s hoax because he needed a “real” witness to back up everything.
I’ve hunted the blue mountains of Oregon since the 80’s . I can absolutely tell you the creatures call this place home. Be respectful and maybe they will bless you
Mike, your videos are awesome. Brother takes a lot of courage to be alone in the woods. You should definitely use a drone that would come so much handy
You have every right to be freaking out especially being alone. I love when you spoke about nature and the love you have for it. You’re a damn good dude!!! HUGE LIKE
Wow thanks a lot! I do have a couple more that I already filmed and just need to edit. And I’m also planning some future trips. The only problem is that every experience seems to be scarier than the previous one haha!
Thats why you always trust you're gut. If you feel creeped out, then theres usually a good reason behind it. Plus when the woods go quiet, its either because of a predator, or something worse! Glad i found you're channel. Keep up the good work
Thank you!! Yeah it seemed to be really noisy (birds. Bugs) before and after that moment on night 2. But during it, there was nothing but silence. Definitely spooky
@@mikewanders A silence of insects implies an animal which eats insects en masse: I don't think ants stand still when anteaters come or hurry back to the nest, so perhaps this indicates an animal which can eat an entire termite nest of 20,000 insects in a few minutes? This would sound like a glyptodont or a ground sloth (some reconstructions make them look apelike), since eating termite nests sounds like something they would do. As a atheist skeptic who does not believe in protoscience (like cryptozoology), there would be no reason for insects to be scared of big animals, even if they are occasionally eaten: bears are not the main predator of bees, and bees don't go silent or flee when bears come, and whilst bees have stings, insects which can't defend themselves against insectivorous animals like mustelids and rodents don't go silent. I have just realized this, and I should say no large animal in Northern America has insects as a large food source: escaped apes or descendants can't explain this, as termites don't go silent when great apes come. I reluctantly say this is unexplained.
Watching this from Australia. Love your vids. You’re Braver than I would ever be haha, Those forests over there just look spooky. Looking forward to the next adventure
I have seen a lot of Bigfoot vids and I have to say yours are some of the best I have seen in a long time. The no bull or hype just matter of fact video is awesome. Keep up the great work from Australia 👍
I’ve lived on the N OR coast. It has the most creepy areas of forest ever. I agree with the very experienced David Paulides who say he doesn’t go camping alone way out in the boonies anymore. There is more safety in numbers. You have another set of eyes and ears to document too. You need to have a Buddy and a big dog. God bless you. Great video.
Jane Goodall often speaks of how for the first 18 months of her study, all she could do is follow the sounds of a troop of chimps. It was 18 months until she first SAW them. It took another year to get closer, and 2 years to assimilate into 1 troop of chimps. That is nearly 4 years of work to get near them for the first time.
@@GoofBallGuru OR, you could just live in an area where they are prevalent (one of the reasons I love being here on the Olympic peninsula, Beach, Mountains, salmon river, lakes, and out in a heavily wooded, low populated area) and set up a zone that you can monitor, where you have reasons to believe there are nearby. Let them come to you. I am retired and have a condition that makes me sensitive to light and sound so I stay awake all night, all year and keep my recorded and DVR camera, as well as 4 security cameras facing outward from our property. The wife and I have had rocks tossed at us twice, lots of crazy bird calls, owls that cough, long, low grumble moans and high pitched "weepwhistle" (try to whistle on the p in weep, I have to adjust my mouth to do it and there is a slight pause, She? somehow does). Sasq'ets season has just started around here, they mainly spend a lot of time in the higher peaks in summer, then follow the elk and deer away from the 14 feet of snow, and fourage the foothills and water sources. I used to sit on the fence about sasquatch, until I moved here.
I subscribe to a lot of TH-cam channels. I don’t have cable or subscription services so TH-cam is my main entertainment & I use it constantly. Every time I watch your video’s I am in awe of your editing and the music you choose. You are very talented and hope you never get discouraged because your channel is great.
@@mikewanders knocking on trees, howeling and so on, does nothing. They aren't dumb. Far more intelligent than we are! Just enjoy your fire, and go to bed, that's when it goes down for most people.
@@mikewanders I have always wanted to explore and investigate but have only been camping once ....could you use a sidekick ever? I'd pay to do a trip like this....just not alone
I really enjoyed this camping trip and can’t wait to go again. You do a great job on your videos-love the added music, editing, and beautiful scenery. Your commitment to keeping it real and natural will keep me coming back. 🏕️🔥
Beautiful area. Thank you for letting us come along. It’s beautiful and scary at the same time. You are right about opening up to let experience happen.
@@mikewanders Just a thought and noone has done it yet which is walk the cliff edges, and explore, They like steep hills, No humans. Maybe hike to a spot and put your back to a tree, and just sit, and listen, high ground, Id love to see the next video. that silence was overwhelming The encounters of DogMan, and sasquatch are so freaky man.. i have felt that fear you have felt, and it was the same scenario, alone in the pitch black woods of northwestern maine.. it heightens your senses above anything.. That fear will make you a Man, no doubt.. your a brave man, and i appreciate ya. you get the best evidence by yourself. Spend the money and get a better light, the pitch blackness soaks up the light. Be careful out there bro. Im anxious to see whats next, Get creative...Wish i could join ya.
I consider myself a tough marker with bf channels yet I enjoyed your vid. You had no puff & fake he-man bs like most do. You just told your adventure as you saw it in a calm rational way. Breath of fresh air
I really enjoyed your video, very interesting, Not boring like other videos. You are very good at what you do and very brave going alone. You should take someone with you on your next adventure. Keep em coming! Thank you !
There are many scary things that roam the forests. I'm getting too old to leave the cabin after dark. And a few uneasy moments teach us to listen to our instincts. Be safe out there.
One thing you cant do unfortunately if you want to encounter a Bigfoot is carry a weapon, they have telepathy and know what you know if carrying and they will not allow themselves to be put. at risk
Hi Guys, Marie from South Wales UK 🇬🇧 This was Awesome , Your Wilderness is so Vast and Beautiful , you just Don't Know when the Big Guy will show Himself . Night time is Really Spooky you won't get me Out There the Atmosphere was Electric. Stay Safe Out There 😢😮👣👣👣❤
Beautiful scenery. Creepy as hell at night, i usually camp out in forestry here in the UK, but nothing compares to that area or even anywhere in the states. Great post thank you.
Hi, where do you go to in Britain? I'm in Nottingham. I love Northumberland & Scotland - some amazing places! Cannock Chase is supposed to be great too
Right on! That's awesome! I would love that opportunity. I stayed near the Oregon Caves, Willow Creek and Bluff Creek area, and a lot of places over the years! Thank you, 🤗👣💕
Really enjoyed this video. Also enjoyed the Mt. St. Helens video. Those are only 2 thus far of yours I have watched. Your videography in my opinion on both of these videos was outstanding. Also great honest outpouring of describing what it feels like to be alone in these situations. I expect you will continue to have subscriber growth and hope to see big numbers for your channel in the future. Thanks for your hard and enjoyable work doing this excellent content. Good luck and God Bless You!
Cannot believe you went there alone. Brave or stupid? I can't decide! And i dont mean to be rude. God forbid anything happened, and you had no one to turn to. Also, i am a believer. But, i go back to what you said in the beginning , walking the trail at dusk. You said- "If i saw anything, I'd absolutely freak ." It made me think about Paul's footage. He seemed SO calm when he saw Bigfoot. Makes me wonder. Just a tiny bit. Great Stuff!! Im impressed. 👍
I absolutely love your videos. IM sorry you experienced that level of fear, I don't like that feeling at all but I appreciate you doing that for us viewers 😁 Looking forward to the next one which I hope will be soon.
Just came across your channel and I really like it. Thank you for putting in so much hard work in your videos you can tell you really care about your channel that’s awesome I’m a supporter!! 👍👍
I feel so creeped out. It was like watching a well done horror suspense thriller movie. Very Believable! Very engrossing!! Stupendous narration and very professional video quality. Im home alone, and I am still creeped out.
Thank you so much for saying that! Yeah I think my goal here is for the viewer to feel like they are there in these Bigfoot hot spots with me, so that’s great to hear! Thanks again
Canyon City Oregon, was my first sighting in 1976. Seen 3 altogether. Love them people for gifting me and they find us. My ex and I both have had a few visits annd experiences. We were together my last 2 sightings. She's had 2 sightings too. One near Austin Junction Oregon, and the 2nd one at Boiling Springs Campground, near Crouch Idaho. Thank you. Be safe and have fun!
@@mikewanderswould you ever consider going to the areas of Oregon near caves & lava tube? I think you might have better luck. I loved seeing the footage of my beautiful state. Thank you for letting me go with you vicariously. I'm too disabled at 69 to do that kind of stuff anymore. I miss camping & hiking.
@@GuantanamoBayBarbie2 I’d love to! Currently have so many places I want to check out. Oregon definitely has a bunch of them. Thank you SO much for watching and I’m more than happy to hear that these videos can in some way take you out there.
That's really something. Hubs and I live about 13 miles south of Canyon City, our property is bordered by forest land. I've seen mountain lions, wolves and black bear in the area, it would probably scare the crap out of me but I'd love to see a Sasquatch.
I tell you Dogman/ Wearwolf what ever you want to call them. They are real. I'm a Professional Truck Driver OTR. In North Central Montana four lane hwy coming down into a valley one crossing the hwy. Clear day sun to my back. Huge nine foot body, very muscular 400 lbs plus. It moved like a feral cat, low to the ground. But when it looked at me and snarled, wow. How do you explain something that is not supposed to exist. 2022 fall. Im not sure a 45/70 would take this down or protect you. Stay safe my friend, because they are real and they are in the forest.
I’m way past belief stage my reality is different from most. I am a full believer. These things do exist. We are in a dimensional shift.if you are a sensitive or impath or close to Mother Earth and the energies you will have more happen I’m one of those .they allowed me to take there picture in Oregon.i have images of I believe 2 adults and 2 juveniles. They sent me the vibe to records them and stayed there while I filmed them they were there for 2 days the second day went back they were still there I got Awsome images.never expected that.it was a privilege I won’t burn them by dragging people there to prove anything… enjoy your personal experience it’s meant for only you…..❤
I know the laws are different there, but I'd be packing my 10mm along with that bear spray. Having a deterrent against 2 and 4-legged bogeymen is always a smart plan. Great vid! I'm envious of people who can actually get out there and put boots on the ground.
I have always carried a weapon (handgun or rifle), bear spray, and a mini air horn. If I hear something at night while in my tent, I use the air horn first.
Fire arms are pretty much useless when it comes to Sasquatch. Not that I think they would ever hurt anyone, but it's been reported that they live and travel in groups. You might get a shot off on one of them, but the other three behind you will make sure you won't get another one off.
@@mehGyver well, I'm no expert, but it's been reported a few times. Where people had guns, but they were out matched by the Sasquatch. The "Ape canyon incident" comes to mind. The "siege at Honobia incident" comes to mind. All reported time where someone shot at a creature , then more creatures came to basically seek vengeance. And the people then barricaded themselves into a room or cabin, because they felt that the fire arm it's self, wasn't going to be enough to protect them. These are just reports, I wasn't there
What good is it to have a experience at night? You can't see anything and neither can we. It doesn't make sense to me Just go to bed, they come into camp then. 😢😢
Intuition. All animals have it. I always wondered if you could feel something close to you if it was really sharp. I know air pressure can do that in you ears, but just imagine. Knowing before hearing it at distance. Very useful and as humans, we do this all the time excluding our main 5 senses. Interesting stuff Mike, Cheers
Very enjoyable presentation with great cinemaphotography and music. I take my hat off to you ,as being aware that these things and so much more exist along side us, oh and all the missing 411 stuff, walking alone in a forest, especially when dark, is something I can't see myself doing anytime soon. Let's not also forget about sightings of dogman, whose prints I've been able to recover here in a Slovak forest. There's certainly a lot more to life than we can ever begin to imagine. Job well done, stay safe.
@@foxoutfoxing Lone wolves (which is presumably the Warg of Germanic mythology and Tolkien), are alpha wolves expelled from the pack for being too big, as the lone wolves need more nutrition. The wolf length range is 5-6 feet (which could mean nearly 6 feet one inch at most), but lone wolves are eight feet (which could mean nearly eight feet one inch).
Yeah, the Freeman footage is right up there with the Patterson footage, maybe better because it's height is incredible and it looks the way I'd expect it to look, ape-like but too human to pull the trigger on. That place looks so much like the west coast. Would be cool to sit on that ridge with a big lens and try to catch something on film from afar. I think the best time to be out there is right after a couple days of rain, when that sun finally comes out. Everything wants to be out and about at that time. And also if you can time it when it's a full moon, man then you are in for it because there's just no way these creatures wouldn't take advantage of all that light..though they may be annoyed with you being there. And the tree knocking, 1 knock and then another 30 seconds or so later probably works better. Rock clacking might work too. With one knock you might force them to knock back to make sure they heard another bigfoot. With two knocks they probably realize you're a human. Honestly I don't know what they use to tree knock before limbs on the forest floor are rotten and don't make a thud. Maybe they use a rock or even an open palm against the tree. I remember having a feeling like that before when I had an encounter. Basically I entered an area with grass that was over my head, right next to a water source, just a perfect area for an elusive creature, and it felt like I had just stupidly walked into someone's home without asking. This trespassing, shame, and dread feeling all rolled into one. It made me feel guilt for treating the forest like it was my playground. Nothing we can do about it though, to enjoy the wilderness you're going to interfere with the wildlife. I've had other encounters though where I didn't feel anything. I think it depends on their intent. You could have been near a mountain as well though, who knows. Good to go with your gut. Sasquatch can easily evade and in the Patty footage they'd seen two other sets of tracks, plus she's female, and the Freeman encounter came with additional small tracks, so I'm pretty sure she or they were trying to lead the men away from their young. Thanks for sharing your experiences/travels with us. I'm a fan of your approach.
We all experience fear it's because we are human. Once paranoia sets in then the mind plays with you. I think in your situation was knowing what you could possibly expect because of someone else's prior experience in the daylight and not being able to see at dark. The dark can never hurt you as well as the daylight. It's what's in the dark and what we can't see gives us fear. You should always trust your gut but in the same sentence try not to let your mind wonder. Good video, keep up the good work.
Completely agree. I’m fully aware that yes, while other senses do seem to become heightened in the dark, you also can TOTALLY freak yourself out bc of what’s already in your head, or just your own imagination in the moment. However, I’m still really weirded out by how creeped out I got in that situation, especially since I’ve been alone in the dark in very sketchy places before and after this video was shot. Thanks for watching man!!
@@danae-rain3019 I've spent literally months in the woods (46+ years backpacking and hunting). What's in the woods at night are in the woods during the day. "Creatures" don't sudden "appear" at night, the exist all the time.
I've been creeped out twice in the forest. Once on a trail along the Western slopes of Mt. Hood where I turned around and car camped instead of backpacked, and once in the Blue Hills of Oregon. I didn't even attempt to camp there at all. Very very spooky.
Dude this was an awesome video, 100% my favourite types of Bigfoot content when researchers test their nerve and go into the woods at night. And holy shit, absolutely balls of steel going to that film site at night. The Paul Freeman footage is some of the most authentic in my opinion, so to go up there on your own took serious plums.
I look forward to these SO much! Everything is top notch. Very unique and real. No fake stuff and my Favorite of all is your great sense of humor! Nice job. I seriously look forward to these and I get very psyched when I see a brand new video of yours ready to go! I feel inspired to spend time in the forest like I used to after watching these. I used to spend time Alone quite a bit outside and it’s quite the challenge and also there is nothing quite like it. It’s good for the soul and spirit.
I was mushroom picking for Morels on Vancouver island years ago and came across some fresh impressions in the moss,i got scared and slipped on what i think was sasquatch scat , never told that before, didn't think any one would believe it ,there was something up there that day😮
I was telling this man that my friend & her kids went to Eagle Fern Park in the summer. The water is so clear & not deep. This man was freaked out telling me him and two friends saw something throwing rocks at them, they were so scared they ran all the way back to their car and will never go back there. They were hiking up a trail out in the quiet, beautiful forest.
My family has property in the blue mountains and I have so many stories up there, I could take you to a place that I have an encounter almost everytime I go
I am so freckin envious of you! What I wouldn't do for a chance to walk the same ground that Paul Freeman shot that great film of a Sasquatch (possibly two). I honestly believe that the Freeman's footage is our generation's Bluff Creek. I wish Mr. Freeman was still alive because I would have loved to had the chance to correspond with him, or even possibly a chance to interview him. There are so many questions I have about, not just his famous footage, but all of his research. You do a fantastic job on this documentary and I hope to see more of your work in the future. I like the way you didn't overpower the narrative, whether it was on purpose or not. I love the fact that you allowed the landscape to be the protagonist in this story because at the end of the day, is there a more beautiful place in the world then the Blue Mountains?. Thank you for this righteous piece of work.
I absolutely loved this video..stumbled across your channel and so glad I did! I really enjoyed accompanying on your hike and seeing all that beauty..no dramatic loud thumping music..no fake heroism..no laughable comments. So authentic and real..congratulations ❤
Really have been enjoying these videos and thank you for taking the time to go to these places and creating the documentaries. I was just curious if you've experienced, either heard or seen anything unusual/unexplainable, while on these trips or anytime youve explored the wilderness. I know you said you had that feeling of "unease" in this video, but wondering if there are other things you may have experienced, but maybe haven't said in a video. Also, I don't know if you do this, but I HIGHLY recommend taking one or more audio recorders with you and have them running at your camp day/night and even when you go out on your day/night walks. You'll be amazed of what you might capture. Again, excellent video and thank you for sharing! Looking forward to more!
Thanks so much! I may start bringing audio recorders going forward. As far as experiences go-yes I have. Strange vocalizations/findings for sure in my next film. And then again on Vancouver island I was scared out of my mind bc of some weird stuff that went down.
@@mikewanders Awesome! Looking forward to hearing about those experiences, in future vids. Yeah, I'm sure you're aware that when the night seems quiet, when you're awake, it could be a sign of stuff that might happen, while you sleep. So, if possible, I def recommend having audio running, just in case. And not just in your camp, but the surrounding perimeter. I mean, you're going into their areas, and audio data/evidence is just as important, as video. Again, great job on the video/series! 👍
Incredible scenery, beautifully shot and the soundtrack was just the icing on one seriously thought provoking cake. Maybe Bigfoot wasn't around... but Bigballs most certainly was. A great bit of film, mate.
To be fair Sir......the WHOLE forest is watching you!! They want to know what this furless man on two legs, no sharp teeth and awkward loud movements is doing there......LOL
Well it’s dark, real cold, very quiet and your scared and close to being terrified and I understand what your going through. I’ve never been in your shoes but being on the edge like that must feel amazing
I live in the Blues, have camped and hiked the pacific NW a great deal. As someone old enough to be your grandmother, please take care to have appropriate backup. A sat phone, extra batteries, etc. and maybe you did. Perhaps let viewers know you are prepared for the worst. Please be safe. Thanks.
I believe that Paul used to patrol the Mill Creek watershed, which is off limits to the public as it provides clean water to the city of Walla Walla - I used to manage the county conservation district in Walla Walla and even I wasn't allowed inside Mill Creek watershed where I believe that Paul Freeman got the footage. I believe that the watershed is only open to the public if you draw a lottery ticket for one of the limited elk hunts in the watershed. That being said... how did you get permission to be there? I've only been in the watershed once... and that was with the forester at my side... bull trout reside there and are protected by the federal endangerrd species act.
Mike, i thank you for uploading this wonderful video onto YT. The cinematography is on point, the music perfect. I hope to watch more of your adventure videos. New sub, Bob.
I'm shocked you walk at night without night vision equipment. I had to do it one night when my car broke down and it was the freakiest feeling I ever had and I photographed moose at 10 feet. respect!

Whilst you were out there crapping your pants I was in my comfortable bed and this was so relaxing to watch I fell asleep. So thanks for this great video 😅😊 it was very honest. I think most of us would shit our pants out there doing that. Kudos
Great video! New sub. Born & raised in north-central PA mnts. Now 17 miles northeast of Pittsburgh. Many, many sightings & 2 very convincing videos make me a believer. Thanks for all your hard work & the time you have invested in these videos. 👍🏻🙂

Okay now this is the most amazing content I've seen so far and I watched EVERY wildlife/exploring documentary out there. My guy your intelligence and integrity really shows through and makes yours videos so immersive, the cinematography, the effort, you calm voice (to be honest I'd be too scared to watch these alone if it weren't for your calm voice), the handsome videographer, the scenery...all so impressive.
Thank you for stayinh real and not faking shit, photoshopping or acting like a lunatic on steroids lol, you're truly one of a kind and you obviously have the talent for these sort of things. The way you capture your feelings honestly...wow makes me feel like I'm there
I mean, you accomplished something 90% of people never would dare to do and please make more of these...fuck it, make it a series, make a 100 episodes!
I've just finished watching and on the weekend I've invited a whole friend group over and we're watching it for a movie night
I agree! Especially on the handsome videographer point lol 😅
I need more episodes of this for sure
Hahaha now THIS is an epic comment. Pinned!! Thank you so much for saying all that.
This comment is on behalf of a lot of us ‼️‼️‼️we were all thinking all of this but just Dont type it all out like that so thanks for writing what everyone else is thinking xxx
Ditto!! Especially on the good looking and Brave videographer dude!
Central Pa ----Olympic Peninsula. I have had 2 sightings in my life, one in 1987, and 2021. 3 years ago, a 'tree peeker" scared our dogs into instantly wetting themselves and whining once that black head popped out for 1 second (with bed head) behind the fir tree and then into a game trail to disappear. in 2017, an incessant window tapper, got my friends and me to chase this thing around the fields behind our house. Zipping by us in the darkness we all just got glimpses of a 5 foot tall, incredibly fast, black figure. Fresh plowed fields are not easy to run in, and this thing was running circles around us, toying with us for fun. About once a year, I still hear vocalizations that are unmistakable.
I drove through the Blue mountains in OR on the way out (Interstate closed at La Grand, had to detour over Tollgate in the mts. I would have stayed a night but there was already 14 inches of snow and blizzard conditions that night.
The birds sounds are one thing we hear all the time. Song birds on our trail hikes that suddenly start making weird calls. Once, right before a large rock landed next to me and the wife on a trail, I asked her, "do you hear that bird?, It almost sound like a bird was trying to imitate a kookaburra from down under. Then, "booom!" the rock landed with debris actually dispersing in the air around it. I am always brave until that happens.
SO the sighting were in Central PA or the Olympic Peninsula?
Wow man that’s awesome. I’ve heard about dogs reacting that way. It’s very interesting.
The thought of Seeing them using their arms to run with like one of those monkeys with the wheels on their hands ( movie)-is so creepy to me.!!
And that they are so damn fast and huge.
Truly impressive
Dude your Bigfoot documentaries are so good, I am here for it 😊 I’ve always thought the Freeman footage was one of the most authentic pieces of evidence out there.
Thank you so much. Yeah all things considered, it’s really a compelling piece of the puzzle.
And tell me something did you see any Bigfoots no you didn't you saw a guy at night time telling you heard noises gee go figure in a wood loaded with bear Bobcats deer in any other animal you can think of and yet you're convinced he saw something
Patterson-Gimlin film is by far better.
u believe in bigfoot
@@peatmoss4415 The circumstances of that film alone debunk it. Then upon objective analysis the entire hoax falls apart. The Bigfoot phenomenon is real, but Patterson was a scammer. Bob Gimlin was the most important part of Patterson’s hoax because he needed a “real” witness to back up everything.
I’ve hunted the blue mountains of Oregon since the 80’s . I can absolutely tell you the creatures call this place home. Be respectful and maybe they will bless you
Wow that’s really cool to hear.
Mike, your videos are awesome. Brother takes a lot of courage to be alone in the woods. You should definitely use a drone that would come so much handy
@ thanks bro! Yeah I’ll likely start integrating a drone
I was just there 5 weeks ago. It was an honor to walk the same path Paul did so many years ago.
Nice!! Yeah I felt the same way.
@@mikewanders Did you go by the pond or show the pond? I did not see the pond which is exactly where the encounter happened.
Bet that was a little hair raising and cool at the same time ? 👍
You have every right to be freaking out especially being alone. I love when you spoke about nature and the love you have for it. You’re a damn good dude!!! HUGE LIKE
Thank you so much. I really appreciate that. Yeah the natural world is just heaven all around us.
@@mikewanders No, Heaven will be so much better! ❤❤
@@mikewanders You should have had a team of experienced trackers with animal spray (that way no pranksters, hermits, or animals, will be killed).
You're an absolute pro at this. My God please continue making these videos!! I have no words, just wow...
Wow thanks a lot! I do have a couple more that I already filmed and just need to edit. And I’m also planning some future trips. The only problem is that every experience seems to be scarier than the previous one haha!
@mikewanders no way!!! I can't wait to see them and keep them coming! I prefer to watch from the comfort of my blankets while you be brave 😄
@@mikewanderspls be safe
That was brilliant, I am so into Bigfoot. You are very brave to go on your own, but wow what a beautiful place. Well done to you 👍👍👍👍
Thanks so much for watching it!
Thats why you always trust you're gut. If you feel creeped out, then theres usually a good reason behind it. Plus when the woods go quiet, its either because of a predator, or something worse! Glad i found you're channel. Keep up the good work
Thank you!! Yeah it seemed to be really noisy (birds. Bugs) before and after that moment on night 2. But during it, there was nothing but silence. Definitely spooky
Sasquash is not worse than a predator...quite the opposite
@@mikewanders A silence of insects implies an animal which eats insects en masse: I don't think ants stand still when anteaters come or hurry back to the nest, so perhaps this indicates an animal which can eat an entire termite nest of 20,000 insects in a few minutes? This would sound like a glyptodont or a ground sloth (some reconstructions make them look apelike), since eating termite nests sounds like something they would do.
As a atheist skeptic who does not believe in protoscience (like cryptozoology), there would be no reason for insects to be scared of big animals, even if they are occasionally eaten: bears are not the main predator of bees, and bees don't go silent or flee when bears come, and whilst bees have stings, insects which can't defend themselves against insectivorous animals like mustelids and rodents don't go silent. I have just realized this, and I should say no large animal in Northern America has insects as a large food source: escaped apes or descendants can't explain this, as termites don't go silent when great apes come.
I reluctantly say this is unexplained.
Watching this from Australia. Love your vids. You’re Braver than I would ever be haha, Those forests over there just look spooky. Looking forward to the next adventure
Love it!! Need to visit Australia some day. Thanks for watching man
I have seen a lot of Bigfoot vids and I have to say yours are some of the best I have seen in a long time.
The no bull or hype just matter of fact video is awesome.
Keep up the great work from Australia 👍
That means so much. Thanks a ton. Hello to Australia!!
I’ve lived on the N OR coast. It has the most creepy areas of forest ever. I agree with the very experienced David Paulides who say he doesn’t go camping alone way out in the boonies anymore. There is more safety in numbers. You have another set of eyes and ears to document too. You need to have a Buddy and a big dog. God bless you. Great video.
David Paulides is a hack.
Why would anyone go out there at all with anyone, unless they're looking for trouble
The boonies... so he thinks the people there are rubes?
Jane Goodall often speaks of how for the first 18 months of her study, all she could do is follow the sounds of a troop of chimps. It was 18 months until she first SAW them. It took another year to get closer, and 2 years to assimilate into 1 troop of chimps. That is nearly 4 years of work to get near them for the first time.
Chimps? Or Gorillas?
Preach!! This is very important to consider
By the looka of it if took 4years for chimps it'll take +400years for bigfoot yeti sasquatch wildman 😮😅😊
@@mikewanders I hike hunt camp but to do what you do going to those places alone with nothing but bear spray that's some balls of steel 😂
@@GoofBallGuru OR, you could just live in an area where they are prevalent (one of the reasons I love being here on the Olympic peninsula, Beach, Mountains, salmon river, lakes, and out in a heavily wooded, low populated area) and set up a zone that you can monitor, where you have reasons to believe there are nearby. Let them come to you. I am retired and have a condition that makes me sensitive to light and sound so I stay awake all night, all year and keep my recorded and DVR camera, as well as 4 security cameras facing outward from our property. The wife and I have had rocks tossed at us twice, lots of crazy bird calls, owls that cough, long, low grumble moans and high pitched "weepwhistle" (try to whistle on the p in weep, I have to adjust my mouth to do it and there is a slight pause, She? somehow does). Sasq'ets season has just started around here, they mainly spend a lot of time in the higher peaks in summer, then follow the elk and deer away from the 14 feet of snow, and fourage the foothills and water sources. I used to sit on the fence about sasquatch, until I moved here.
The footage from Freeman is unbelievable..the quick look it gave him was insane. It was actually peaking when camera panned up. Great foorage!!!!
Must be creepy to make eye contact with one like that
It is nowhere as good as the Patterson-Gimlin film of Patty.
we wanna know if u believe this
I subscribe to a lot of TH-cam channels. I don’t have cable or subscription services so TH-cam is my main entertainment & I use it constantly. Every time I watch your video’s I am in awe of your editing and the music you choose. You are very talented and hope you never get discouraged because your channel is great.
Thank you so much for saying that. I’m lucky to have someone like yourself watching my videos.
@@mikewanders knocking on trees, howeling and so on, does nothing. They aren't dumb. Far more intelligent than we are! Just enjoy your fire, and go to bed, that's when it goes down for most people.
@@mikewanders I have always wanted to explore and investigate but have only been camping once ....could you use a sidekick ever? I'd pay to do a trip like this....just not alone
Truth 💯
People are your worst enemy out there.
Stay free my friends 🇺🇸
Thank you for another great video ! I dont know how can you be alone. look very creepy at night , But in daylight is beautiful !
Stay safe 🙏
I really enjoyed this camping trip and can’t wait to go again. You do a great job on your videos-love the added music, editing, and beautiful scenery. Your commitment to keeping it real and natural will keep me coming back. 🏕️🔥
Trust your instinct. Something was warning you off. Loved your presentation.
Thanks a ton. Yeah listening to your gut is important
Beautiful area. Thank you for letting us come along. It’s beautiful and scary at the same time. You are right about opening up to let experience happen.
If you just sit by the campfire and enjoy the moment, they will come. They are curious about everything we do
Exactly. You done find Bigfoot. Bigfoot finds you. Guarantee.
Play music and cook sausage.
It's hard as all get out when your by yourself, but stay lights out and don't shine them into the woods. They will come in close that way.
@@eerieforest9188 Really?
This is everything ive been craving...Wow.... on the edge of my seat
I really appreciate that bro
@@mikewanders Just a thought and noone has done it yet which is
walk the cliff edges, and explore, They like steep hills, No humans.
Maybe hike to a spot and put your back to a tree, and just sit, and listen, high ground, Id love to see the next video. that silence was overwhelming
The encounters of DogMan, and sasquatch are so freaky man..
i have felt that fear you have felt, and it was the same scenario, alone in the pitch black woods of northwestern maine..
it heightens your senses above anything.. That fear will make you a Man, no doubt.. your a brave man, and i appreciate ya. you get the best evidence by yourself. Spend the money and get a better light, the pitch blackness soaks up the light. Be careful out there bro.
Im anxious to see whats next, Get creative...Wish i could join ya.
so do u believe
The Freeman footage is one of the best pieces of evidence! Such beautiful scenery you captured and your editing is amazing too!
Thank you!! I gotta join you guys out there in Washington at some point. You guys are killing it
I consider myself a tough marker with bf channels yet I enjoyed your vid. You had no puff & fake he-man bs like most do. You just told your adventure as you saw it in a calm rational way. Breath of fresh air
I really appreciate that thank you. You have to approach it with a level head.
I really enjoyed your video, very interesting, Not boring like other videos. You are very good at what you do and very brave going alone. You should take someone with you on your next adventure.
Keep em coming! Thank you !
There are many scary things that roam the forests. I'm getting too old to leave the cabin after dark.
And a few uneasy moments teach us to listen to our instincts. Be safe out there.
Nature didn't give us night vision. I'm not about to question nature's wisdom. Cabin lights and a fire are where I'll be in the dark woods!
@@mehGyverthose creatures are not supposed to be here..like in the days of Noah when everything was messed up,well we are there again
spooky the way you say that, 🫡
One thing you cant do unfortunately if you want to encounter a Bigfoot is carry a weapon, they have telepathy and know what you know if carrying and they will not allow themselves to be put. at risk
Have you had experiences?
Hi Guys, Marie from South Wales UK 🇬🇧
This was Awesome , Your Wilderness is so Vast and Beautiful , you just Don't Know when the Big Guy will show Himself . Night time is Really Spooky you won't get me Out There the Atmosphere was Electric. Stay Safe Out There 😢😮👣👣👣❤
😊😊
What a beautifully presented video showcasing the fantastic wilderness and landscapes. You are brave to stay in the forest ! So creepy
Beautiful scenery. Creepy as hell at night, i usually camp out in forestry here in the UK, but nothing compares to that area or even anywhere in the states. Great post thank you.
Yeah a beautiful place quickly changes when the sun goes down. Thanks for watching from UK!
Hi, where do you go to in Britain? I'm in Nottingham. I love Northumberland & Scotland - some amazing places! Cannock Chase is supposed to be great too
Right on! That's awesome! I would love that opportunity. I stayed near the Oregon Caves, Willow Creek and Bluff Creek area, and a lot of places over the years! Thank you, 🤗👣💕
Really enjoyed this video. Also enjoyed the Mt. St. Helens video. Those are only 2 thus far of yours I have watched. Your videography in my opinion on both of these videos was outstanding. Also great honest outpouring of describing what it feels like to be alone in these situations. I expect you will continue to have subscriber growth and hope to see big numbers for your channel in the future. Thanks for your hard and enjoyable work doing this excellent content. Good luck and God Bless You!
Thanks so much for saying that-I really appreciate it. God bless!
Cannot believe you went there alone. Brave or stupid? I can't decide!
And i dont mean to be rude. God forbid anything happened, and you had no one to turn to.
Also, i am a believer. But, i go back to what you said in the beginning , walking the trail at dusk. You said- "If i saw anything, I'd absolutely freak ." It made me think about Paul's footage. He seemed SO calm when he saw Bigfoot. Makes me wonder. Just a tiny bit.
Great Stuff!! Im impressed. 👍
i bet he crapped in his britches but want admitt it
Ya, he'd seen it before and knew it was there so he was more prepared to see it maybe. Just a thought as to why he was more calm.
Native Walla Wallan here...Ive spent lots of time in those woods. Gets pretty hairy in there for sure.
Rather see a bigfoot in the Blues any night rather than a Dayton fentanyl tweaker 😂... never seen a bigfoot though just the latter
I absolutely love your videos. IM sorry you experienced that level of fear, I don't like that feeling at all but I appreciate you doing that for us viewers 😁 Looking forward to the next one which I hope will be soon.
Thank you! Haha it was very odd to suddenly feel that way and then suddenly feel fine.
Just came across your channel and I really like it. Thank you for putting in so much hard work in your videos you can tell you really care about your channel that’s awesome I’m a supporter!! 👍👍
Thank you so much!!
I feel so creeped out. It was like watching a well done horror suspense thriller movie. Very Believable! Very engrossing!!
Stupendous narration and very professional video quality. Im home alone, and I am still creeped out.
Thank you so much for saying that! Yeah I think my goal here is for the viewer to feel like they are there in these Bigfoot hot spots with me, so that’s great to hear! Thanks again
Thanks for the video... Good job! For sure it's exciting always.
👋🏻 From Finland
Beautiful scenery, by the way. Thank you for the tour! 😅😅❤❤❤
Thank you for watching!
Oh my gosh this video freaked me out. I don’t know how you did it. Staying two nights. Nope no way. Wow. Take care
Canyon City Oregon, was my first sighting in 1976. Seen 3 altogether. Love them people for gifting me and they find us. My ex and I both have had a few visits annd experiences. We were together my last 2 sightings. She's had 2 sightings too. One near Austin Junction Oregon, and the 2nd one at Boiling Springs Campground, near Crouch Idaho. Thank you. Be safe and have fun!
Wow man. Maybe I need to check out those areas! Thanks for watching!
@@mikewanderswould you ever consider going to the areas of Oregon near caves & lava tube? I think you might have better luck.
I loved seeing the footage of my beautiful state. Thank you for letting me go with you vicariously. I'm too disabled at 69 to do that kind of stuff anymore. I miss camping & hiking.
@@GuantanamoBayBarbie2 I’d love to! Currently have so many places I want to check out. Oregon definitely has a bunch of them. Thank you SO much for watching and I’m more than happy to hear that these videos can in some way take you out there.
@@mikewandersThey are EVERYWHERE.
That's really something. Hubs and I live about 13 miles south of Canyon City, our property is bordered by forest land. I've seen mountain lions, wolves and black bear in the area, it would probably scare the crap out of me but I'd love to see a Sasquatch.
I tell you Dogman/ Wearwolf what ever you want to call them. They are real. I'm a Professional Truck Driver OTR. In North Central Montana four lane hwy coming down into a valley one crossing the hwy. Clear day sun to my back. Huge nine foot body, very muscular 400 lbs plus. It moved like a feral cat, low to the ground. But when it looked at me and snarled, wow. How do you explain something that is not supposed to exist. 2022 fall. Im not sure a 45/70 would take this down or protect you. Stay safe my friend, because they are real and they are in the forest.
Sir...Are you sure it was a Dogman? What did it look like? I live in Michigan and we've had several sightings of Bigfoot and Dogman!! Frank.
cool story mate, 🫡🏆
you could go on vic cundiffs show,
Dogman ….so scary If I had to chose between encountering a Dogman or a Bigfoot..I would chose Bigfoot 😳👀
I’m way past belief stage my reality is different from most. I am a full believer. These things do exist. We are in a dimensional shift.if you are a sensitive or impath or close to Mother Earth and the energies you will have more happen I’m one of those .they allowed me to take there picture in Oregon.i have images of I believe 2 adults and 2 juveniles. They sent me the vibe to records them and stayed there while I filmed them they were there for 2 days the second day went back they were still there I got Awsome images.never expected that.it was a privilege I won’t burn them by dragging people there to prove anything… enjoy your personal experience it’s meant for only you…..❤
I completely believe you it’s a life changer I know
I know the laws are different there, but I'd be packing my 10mm along with that bear spray. Having a deterrent against 2 and 4-legged bogeymen is always a smart plan. Great vid! I'm envious of people who can actually get out there and put boots on the ground.
I have always carried a weapon (handgun or rifle), bear spray, and a mini air horn. If I hear something at night while in my tent, I use the air horn first.
Fire arms are pretty much useless when it comes to Sasquatch. Not that I think they would ever hurt anyone, but it's been reported that they live and travel in groups. You might get a shot off on one of them, but the other three behind you will make sure you won't get another one off.
@@drop830 are you basing that response on actual documented events?
@mehGyver 100% facts. Don't shoot the bigfoot... his other family Is gonna mess you up if you harm them
@@mehGyver well, I'm no expert, but it's been reported a few times. Where people had guns, but they were out matched by the Sasquatch. The "Ape canyon incident" comes to mind. The "siege at Honobia incident" comes to mind. All reported time where someone shot at a creature , then more creatures came to basically seek vengeance. And the people then barricaded themselves into a room or cabin, because they felt that the fire arm it's self, wasn't going to be enough to protect them. These are just reports, I wasn't there
This is really brilliant, loved it. You video had atmosphere and depth, really felt like we were out these with you. Really well done.
Thanks a ton. I really appreciate you saying that.
Great bigfoot video. Well done 👍🌲
Thanks bro!
Your Videos are incredibly high quality, I really enjoy them. Subscribed.
Thanks so much. Means a lot!
@@mikewanders No problem! I understand the pains of growing an all-new YT channel. I'm almost to 10 subscribers myself haha!
What good is it to have a experience at night? You can't see anything and neither can we. It doesn't make sense to me
Just go to bed, they come into camp then. 😢😢
Keep them Bigfoot adventures coming Mike , you tell an do it well , love the content
Thank you so much. I WILL keep them coming
The commentary was as beautiful as the scenery, well done!!
Hey thanks a lot man. Appreciate you!
Loved this,great narrative, footage, kept me captivated. Man you’re brave…. Watching it again
Appreciate that man!
Intuition. All animals have it. I always wondered if you could feel something close to you if it was really sharp. I know air pressure can do that in you ears, but just imagine. Knowing before hearing it at distance. Very useful and as humans, we do this all the time excluding our main 5 senses. Interesting stuff Mike, Cheers
Thank you! Yeah definitely. I get a similar feeling when I’m near a large wild animal in Yellowstone
Very enjoyable presentation with great cinemaphotography and music. I take my hat off to you ,as being aware that these things and so much more exist along side us, oh and all the missing 411 stuff, walking alone in a forest, especially when dark, is something I can't see myself doing anytime soon. Let's not also forget about sightings of dogman, whose prints I've been able to recover here in a Slovak forest. There's certainly a lot more to life than we can ever begin to imagine. Job well done, stay safe.
Thank you so much for watching!
You found prints? Also, "dogman" refers to the Michigan variety.
@@rikhuravidansker Have plaster casts of 4 prints, consistent with those of the European wolf except for the larger size.
@@foxoutfoxing Lone wolves (which is presumably the Warg of Germanic mythology and Tolkien), are alpha wolves expelled from the pack for being too big, as the lone wolves need more nutrition. The wolf length range is 5-6 feet (which could mean nearly 6 feet one inch at most), but lone wolves are eight feet (which could mean nearly eight feet one inch).
Yeah, the Freeman footage is right up there with the Patterson footage, maybe better because it's height is incredible and it looks the way I'd expect it to look, ape-like but too human to pull the trigger on. That place looks so much like the west coast. Would be cool to sit on that ridge with a big lens and try to catch something on film from afar.
I think the best time to be out there is right after a couple days of rain, when that sun finally comes out. Everything wants to be out and about at that time. And also if you can time it when it's a full moon, man then you are in for it because there's just no way these creatures wouldn't take advantage of all that light..though they may be annoyed with you being there. And the tree knocking, 1 knock and then another 30 seconds or so later probably works better. Rock clacking might work too. With one knock you might force them to knock back to make sure they heard another bigfoot. With two knocks they probably realize you're a human. Honestly I don't know what they use to tree knock before limbs on the forest floor are rotten and don't make a thud. Maybe they use a rock or even an open palm against the tree.
I remember having a feeling like that before when I had an encounter. Basically I entered an area with grass that was over my head, right next to a water source, just a perfect area for an elusive creature, and it felt like I had just stupidly walked into someone's home without asking. This trespassing, shame, and dread feeling all rolled into one. It made me feel guilt for treating the forest like it was my playground. Nothing we can do about it though, to enjoy the wilderness you're going to interfere with the wildlife. I've had other encounters though where I didn't feel anything. I think it depends on their intent. You could have been near a mountain as well though, who knows. Good to go with your gut.
Sasquatch can easily evade and in the Patty footage they'd seen two other sets of tracks, plus she's female, and the Freeman encounter came with additional small tracks, so I'm pretty sure she or they were trying to lead the men away from their young.
Thanks for sharing your experiences/travels with us. I'm a fan of your approach.
Both the Patterson-Gimlin footage and the Paul Freeman footage are hoaxes.
When your lights went out while on that trail…..oh dear lord…I became anxious just watching it😳
Thanks for making this masterpiece and sharing it with the world. It's alot more work than most people realize!
Wow thanks a ton. I love making these. Appreciate you watching
I just stumbled upon one of the greatest pieces of content on TH-cam.
Dude thank you so much for saying that
We all experience fear it's because we are human. Once paranoia sets in then the mind plays with you. I think in your situation was knowing what you could possibly expect because of someone else's prior experience in the daylight and not being able to see at dark. The dark can never hurt you as well as the daylight. It's what's in the dark and what we can't see gives us fear. You should always trust your gut but in the same sentence try not to let your mind wonder. Good video, keep up the good work.
Completely agree. I’m fully aware that yes, while other senses do seem to become heightened in the dark, you also can TOTALLY freak yourself out bc of what’s already in your head, or just your own imagination in the moment. However, I’m still really weirded out by how creeped out I got in that situation, especially since I’ve been alone in the dark in very sketchy places before and after this video was shot. Thanks for watching man!!
I disagree. The forest at night is not ours! Read the Carlos Castaneda books. After my experience on Mt Hood I always leave the forest before dusk.
You assume too much.
@@mikewandersThey get inside your head, and force you to be terrorized over nothing.
@@danae-rain3019 I've spent literally months in the woods (46+ years backpacking and hunting). What's in the woods at night are in the woods during the day. "Creatures" don't sudden "appear" at night, the exist all the time.
Damn. That was so good man. Please do more!!!
Thank you! More on the way for sure
Such breathtakingly beautiful woods😮😊
It’s stunning scenery there
Mikes use of atmospheric and tension inducing music is what adds a lot of entertainment value to his productions
u didnt say u believe.come on tell us.
I've been creeped out twice in the forest. Once on a trail along the Western slopes of Mt. Hood where I turned around and car camped instead of backpacked, and once in the Blue Hills of Oregon. I didn't even attempt to camp there at all. Very very spooky.
Would love to hear your story on that...
Awesome video brother, its not wise to wish for something that sometimes is not friendly. Much❤❤ to all from Australia. Peter.
Thank you! Let’s hope they’re friendly??
Brilliant production. Whole thing.
Thank you so much
I enjoyed your spooky squatchy adventure. Alone in the pacific northeest woods is truly creepy and exhilarating. Thanks!
Great video, nights are definitely spooky
Omgosh that area is so beautiful! I really enjoyed this video.
Thank you so much. Ya it was a gorgeous and wild place
Oh my gosh I hear say that when you hear people talking that maybe Bigfoot.I am not sure.Very brave Man👏👏👏👏👏👏
👀👀
Dude this was an awesome video, 100% my favourite types of Bigfoot content when researchers test their nerve and go into the woods at night. And holy shit, absolutely balls of steel going to that film site at night. The Paul Freeman footage is some of the most authentic in my opinion, so to go up there on your own took serious plums.
Thanks for watching! It was an epic experience
@@mikewanders Yeh man, I bet!
So good! Scared the living poop out of me. Stay safe hiking friend - love your work!
great job Mike! Thank you for doing this.
@@charleskey1666 thank you so much for watching!
Scary walk on the 2nd night.
Absolutely
I look forward to these SO much! Everything is top notch. Very unique and real. No fake stuff and my Favorite of all is your great sense of humor! Nice job. I seriously look forward to these and I get very psyched when I see a brand new video of yours ready to go! I feel inspired to spend time in the forest like I used to after watching these. I used to spend time Alone quite a bit outside and it’s quite the challenge and also there is nothing quite like it. It’s good for the soul and spirit.
Thank you so much!! I look forward to your comments SO much!
I was mushroom picking for Morels on Vancouver island years ago and came across some fresh impressions in the moss,i got scared and slipped on what i think was sasquatch scat , never told that before, didn't think any one would believe it ,there was something up there that day😮
I was telling this man that my friend & her kids went to Eagle Fern Park in the summer. The water is so clear & not deep. This man was freaked out telling me him and two friends saw something throwing rocks at them, they were so scared they ran all the way back to their car and will never go back there. They were hiking up a trail out in the quiet, beautiful forest.
The Blues. I told my husband, this is the one place I believe I would encounter a Sasquatch.
It’s pretty squatchy
My family has property in the blue mountains and I have so many stories up there, I could take you to a place that I have an encounter almost everytime I go
I know it would spook me and I’ve hunted deep woods for 48 years. Follow your gut, and know your limitations.
I am so freckin envious of you! What I wouldn't do for a chance to walk the same ground that Paul Freeman shot that great film of a Sasquatch (possibly two). I honestly believe that the Freeman's footage is our generation's Bluff Creek. I wish Mr. Freeman was still alive because I would have loved to had the chance to correspond with him, or even possibly a chance to interview him. There are so many questions I have about, not just his famous footage, but all of his research. You do a fantastic job on this documentary and I hope to see more of your work in the future. I like the way you didn't overpower the narrative, whether it was on purpose or not. I love the fact that you allowed the landscape to be the protagonist in this story because at the end of the day, is there a more beautiful place in the world then the Blue Mountains?. Thank you for this righteous piece of work.
Beeen a believer my whole life , after hearing countless of podcast on Sasquatch chronicles, I’m 100 percent convinced they exist!!
If you cross paths with one, you will never be the same.
Me too, I'm a fan of sasquacht chronicles !
Yeah at a certain point it becomes harder to say that they DONT exist. Theres just way too many different types of incredibly convincing evidence.
I absolutely loved this video..stumbled across your channel and so glad I did! I really enjoyed accompanying on your hike and seeing all that beauty..no dramatic loud thumping music..no fake heroism..no laughable comments. So authentic and real..congratulations ❤
Really have been enjoying these videos and thank you for taking the time to go to these places and creating the documentaries.
I was just curious if you've experienced, either heard or seen anything unusual/unexplainable, while on these trips or anytime youve explored the wilderness.
I know you said you had that feeling of "unease" in this video, but wondering if there are other things you may have experienced, but maybe haven't said in a video.
Also, I don't know if you do this, but I HIGHLY recommend taking one or more audio recorders with you and have them running at your camp day/night and even when you go out on your day/night walks. You'll be amazed of what you might capture.
Again, excellent video and thank you for sharing! Looking forward to more!
Thanks so much! I may start bringing audio recorders going forward. As far as experiences go-yes I have. Strange vocalizations/findings for sure in my next film. And then again on Vancouver island I was scared out of my mind bc of some weird stuff that went down.
@@mikewanders
Awesome! Looking forward to hearing about those experiences, in future vids.
Yeah, I'm sure you're aware that when the night seems quiet, when you're awake, it could be a sign of stuff that might happen, while you sleep.
So, if possible, I def recommend having audio running, just in case. And not just in your camp, but the surrounding perimeter.
I mean, you're going into their areas, and audio data/evidence is just as important, as video.
Again, great job on the video/series! 👍
Incredible scenery, beautifully shot and the soundtrack was just the icing on one seriously thought provoking cake.
Maybe Bigfoot wasn't around... but Bigballs most certainly was.
A great bit of film, mate.
Hahaha thank you
To be fair Sir......the WHOLE forest is watching you!! They want to know what this furless man on two legs, no sharp teeth and awkward loud movements is doing there......LOL
Well it’s dark, real cold, very quiet and your scared and close to being terrified and I understand what your going through. I’ve never been in your shoes but being on the edge like that must feel amazing
@@georgetworow7760 YES
Get in your car. Listen to your gut. Thats why you have those feelings..listen to them
lol you had me rolling...."hope i dont hear anything back" so funny
I live in the Blues, have camped and hiked the pacific NW a great deal. As someone old enough to be your grandmother, please take care to have appropriate backup. A sat phone, extra batteries, etc. and maybe you did. Perhaps let viewers know you are prepared for the worst. Please be safe. Thanks.
Brave guy! no way would I camp alone. Greetings from Ireland stunning scenery by the way!
Hello Ireland! Thanks for watching !
I believe that Paul used to patrol the Mill Creek watershed, which is off limits to the public as it provides clean water to the city of Walla Walla - I used to manage the county conservation district in Walla Walla and even I wasn't allowed inside Mill Creek watershed where I believe that Paul Freeman got the footage.
I believe that the watershed is only open to the public if you draw a lottery ticket for one of the limited elk hunts in the watershed.
That being said... how did you get permission to be there?
I've only been in the watershed once... and that was with the forester at my side... bull trout reside there and are protected by the federal endangerrd species act.
Mike, i thank you for uploading this wonderful video onto YT. The cinematography is on point, the music perfect. I hope to watch more of your adventure videos. New sub, Bob.
Very Smart to have your vehicle close. I feel there is a creep factor 4 sure😮
I think there is certainly a spiritual aspect to big foot.
Thats why we are always tricked by them.
Demonic entities.
@@danmang923 Possible
@@danmang923 i don't think all are
wait what
I'm shocked you walk at night without night vision equipment. I had to do it one night when my car broke down and it was the freakiest feeling I ever had and I photographed moose at 10 feet. respect!
Nah, walking around at night without nightvision gear or lighting isn't all that bad once you get accustomed to it.
That's because he is clueless as to what he is up against if the demonic entities are in the area
@@BUBBLESPOGOdemonic entities? Share your story please !
"They are not beasts, they are people, they have families, they have children, they have grandparents"
"Their language is not just verbal, it's energetic"
"They believe every rock, every tree, every animal has a spirit"
"The old ways are still alive and they're teaching us"
"Their connection to nature is profound and unbreakable"
Quotes from the book 'The wild woman of the woods'
They are demonic entities, regardless of what the wild woman of the woods says
Amazing Adventure & Thanks for bringing Us along. Be Safe on your Travels.
God Bless, Positive Energy & Good Vibes to all

Size 14 boot! Shit dude, you are Bigfoot!
Whilst you were out there crapping your pants I was in my comfortable bed and this was so relaxing to watch I fell asleep. So thanks for this great video 😅😊 it was very honest. I think most of us would shit our pants out there doing that. Kudos
Haha thanks James!!
Keep the comments clean he’s done nothing wrong to you!
Appreciate you Millie!
Great video! New sub. Born & raised in north-central PA mnts. Now 17 miles northeast of Pittsburgh. Many, many sightings & 2 very convincing videos make me a believer. Thanks for all your hard work & the time you have invested in these videos. 👍🏻🙂
I admire your bravery. Im in Colorado and live to hike and camp but i still haven't worked up the stones to go deeper into blm and unmarked\unexplored places! Samurai chatter, Great video Man!
Thanks dude. Jealous you live in Colorado!
@@mikewanders:don't be jealous. nothing But Californians and illegals I have lived for 56 years and I will be leaving in summer, you have to get permits to do anything!
When you were on the trail, in the night, was on the edge of my seat, and I'm in the UK!!!!!!
Haha nice!!
Being In The Forest Alot Camping, Fishing, And Hunting I Have Not Seen A Bigfoot But 7-8 Years Ago Camping Out Of Index Washington My Cat And I Heard A Whooping Sound Coming From A Higher Elevation Above Us, Vader My Black Cat Froze! So We Listened For A Couple Minutes And, When I Whooped Back The Whooping Stopped!
It Was NOT Coming From A Human Because Above Us The Forest Was So Dense And Steep That A Person Would Not Have Attempted To Go Through That Area!
A Couple Of Years Later I Took My Then Girlfriend There Shooting (Target Practicing) And Asked Her About Scaling That Extreme Area And She Said "No Way!"
Vader Of 16 Years Passed Away But, Now I Have A New Buddy His Name Is "Blitz" Pure Bred Black And Tan German Shepherd That Is Almost 80lbs At 1 1/2 Half Years Young.
(My Third German Shepherd In My Lifetime) We Are Going Back Summer Of 2025 And See If There Is Someway We Can Get To The Top Of That Foothill Area Of The Cascade Mountains?
Be Safe Everybody,
WW & Blitz

The patty & freeman videos are credible imo, I’ve seen a couple others I feel are too but those are the top. Coffee is so great when camping.
