BIGFOOT Documentary | ALONE Overnight at Patterson-Gimlin Film Site | BLUFF CREEK | Willow Creek

- And now for something completely different. Here it is--my Bigfoot Documentary! Join me on this solo adventure, exploring the Patterson Gimlin film site and the forestry roads of Black Creek, California, looking for Bigfoot! Northern California's Willow Creek is the capital of the Bigfoot world, and it was a dream come true to explore this place. Anyone who follows me knows I'm an obsessed hiker and backpacker, but I'm also a Bigfoot guy. The Patterson Gimlin film still stands as the best video evidence of Sasquatch in existence. In this video, I spend two days alone looking for the legendary Bigfoot. Camping on Bluff Creek was a total dream come true. Huge thank you to Ron Morehead who allowed me to use his iconic "Sierra Sounds". All credit goes to him and his team for recording the famous Bigfoot vocalizations and chatter heard in the video, as well as the "whoops".
I found a lot of inspiration in other Bigfoot channels such as @MountainBeastMysteries and @smalltownmonsters. Those channels both have great Bigfoot content and documentaries. Also be sure to check out @survivormanlesstroud for his "Survivorman: Bigfoot" series. Also, be sure to check out the book "The Hoopa Project" by David Paulides, which I refer to in this film.
If you're interested in looking further into the topic of Bigfoot, I recommend watching videos from Anthropologist's Dr. Jeff Meldrum and Dr. Grover Krantz, as well as Wildlife Biologist Dr. John Bindernagle.
As always, I find massive inspiration while making my other hiking and backpacking videos from the legendary Joey Coconut and his channel "My Own Frontier" which can now be found on Patreon.
Full Disclaimer: In this video, I repetitively refer to the forestry roads as "logging roads" which is incorrect. They are not logging roads.

Awesome work Mike, certainly takes me back to our time exploring Bluff Creek a couple of years ago. Such an amazing and beautiful area, you captured the essence of the area very well. Certainly makes me want to go back! Keep up the good work. -Aleks from STM
Thanks man I really appreciate that. Love your channel. Definitely a big inspiration, and I’ll certainly be making more of these in the future. Thanks for watching!
This is my first time watching you and I must say I’m pretty impressed. You did a really good job by not jumping into saying” it was a big foot”. Thank you for a good video. I did subscribe to your channel so I will be watching more of you adventures. Stay safe.
How are you guys able to make these videos? Do you outsource everything? I mean for somebody like me it literally take me 40 hours to make a video
Can play a night soccer
Aleks in the house!! Love it!
I’m convinced just listening to people and their stories. Heard too many to think everyone is lying
Siskiyou County resident here,
If someone was ever going to find a Bigfoot, you're in the right place. That part of Northern California is about as remote and off the grid as any place in this country. Big, beautiful, rugged country, and a lot of it.
There are scarier things in that neck of the woods than Bigfoot, mountain lions, and bears....
Like what?
@@briancunningham2842huge mythical cryptids and unimaginable horrors frightening 😨
@@briancunningham2842I used to live a couple hrs away in Brookings and there were lots of people illegally growing marijuana in there 20 years ago. The Forest service had " walkers " that would go in and look for the pot farms.
I don't live there anymore but there was a lot of people cooking meth. There's quite a few missing persons last seen in that whole area, going down into Garberville

I paused this video because of something you said.. "it's more fun to believe".. most truthful words I have heard watching any other bigfoot videos.. your spot on.. my belief whether right or wrong has actually turned a few friends into believers and we have fun with it sending videos and Bigfoot related gifts for birthdays and holidays but I get the sense that they are truly starting to believe like I and others..
Yes! Just have fun! Nothing better than Bigfoot gifts lol
Totally agree. I love all this stuff because it reminds me that there is still some mystery in the world which is comforting.
Absolutely agree. It is more fun to believe. Remember putting out cookies for Santa. That innocent fun is the moments that stay with you. It's what makes life interesting and memorable.
@@justincase6588 100 percent!! The magic is real!
I have this Bigfoot shirt that says believe in yourself even if none else does. Everyone comments on my shirt and loves it all smiling. The shirt is a good icebreaker
Usually I don't watch people walking in the woods talking about bigfoot, but this has great scenery.
Sadly a waste of time. You'll get some scenery with excellent results from Marc Adell at Colorado Bigfoot, he's incredible.
Yea? Until it isnt@@moondawg3693
Me too.
@@moondawg3693 Yeah, too bad he's never photographed a bigfoot, eh?
Had the wonderful privilege of being invited to John Bindernagels home in Courtenay BC on Vancouver Island 3 times. He gave me 2 of his famous Sasquatch casts. What a gentleman he was. Greatly missed. RIP John.
Enjoyed the video. Thanks for taking us along.
~Calgary
Wow that’s incredible. I’m a huge fan of his and I couldn’t be more jealous. I wish we had more people like him
I didn't know he lived there, I live just south of there.
I had dinner with John in Bellingham Wa, he was a very nice guy. I had some stories to tell him.
Wow 👌 👏
Man the sasquatch/cryptid community lost a good one in John. So smart and respectable, RIP.
The spot where you said “This is a dream come true “, is absolutely stunning. What a beautiful place to live out your life there, if it could be possible! So beautiful and peaceful!!! GREAT VIDEO! 👍
Every time I hear those bloody Sierra Sounds, 😅 It makes all my hair go up! Chills! Cant imagine listening to them, at night, in the forest, in Bluff Creek!! 😅
Haha I know. They are seriously scary. Credit to Ron Morehead for being braver than I would be in that situation.
imagine hearing them for real ! I would crap my pants and cry at the same time!
Terrifying sounds! I love listening to them. I listened many times to Morehead's recording of the Sierra sounds. Remarkable!
The Sierra Sounds are something straight out of a nightmare. Absolutely terrifying noise
Listen to it again. They speak breathing out…and breathing in! I saw one video where a speech/vocal specialist analyzed another Bigfoot sound recording. I would think a gorilla or human would not speak or enunciate while breathing in…..
Yes,and continual conversation with each other as if they were contemplating an attack
@@CircleBackWordSalad Lol, exactly!! Thats what I was thinking!
Check out the audio in in this video, about 3.5minutes in "Sasquatch, A Terrifying Recording Sent To Me, An Important Email"
I camped 2 nights with my 12 yr old son at Aiken Creek campground near where Bluff Creek meets the Klamath River. It was October, so the colors were changing on the Bigleaf maples, vine maples, oaks and dogwoods. We hiked up around Fish Lake and just above Bluff Creek. Our imagination carried away a couple of times, but we had two moments we still talk about: including walking into a sudden wall of “smell” just as a strange gruff barking started. As you noted, the scenery was spectacular. .
I’m jealous, I want to be there in October. I think they are in the area that time of year.
They whistle & growl & mimic. Pretty freaky but so cool. Mx
Thank you for sharing. You are a very brave soul. I just read Tribal Bigfoot by Paulides. Excellent book! Looking forward to reading The Hoopa Project too
I have to check that one out. Hoopa Project is great. Thanks for watching
These things seem like folklore until you are camping and get woken up at 2AM and it scares the crap outta you doing the unexplainable
Haha exactly
Beautiful place but spooky, too… just has that weird vibe… when o was younger, I couldn’t figure out why such a cool place gave me the feeling of unease - found out why in 2007…
@@stevenschwarz8871 that’s crazy. Thats was the same year and same area I had my first experience
MORE AWESTRUX AT 2 PM LOL SAW MINE FOR 2 HOURS HIS LEGS WERE OCTOPUSSY COOL !
That happened to me in Montana ⚰️ coffin rock lake
You said "It's fun to believe" I agree except I know for a fact it isn't that fun encountering one. Back in January 2015, I saw one along the road here in Grant County, West Virginia around 1 a.m. at night. I will never forget the reddish orange like eye shine from my headlights. My now ex-girlfriend (who was my fiancee at the time) and I were the only vehicle on the road during a heavy snow. The closest house was maybe five miles away. The closest town was about another fifteen miles from that place. As we slowly approached the massive hairy figure crouched on the side of the road in front of us, it kept standing taller and taller. It's waist was above my driver's side window as we slowly rode by it. The creature was staring us down with a hateful look on it's somewhat hairy face. This thing was like seven to eight feet tall. Before I could even process what I saw or talk, my ex said "Was that a fucking huge monkey?" I finally said, "That was Bigfoot!" I don't care who believes us. We know what we saw. They're real.
Really fun and informative content! You have such a boyish sense of wonder, never change!
I can't get over how beautiful and remote it is. You can do these beautiful places without looking for big foot.
Thought you were crazy going alone in cat country until the last shot assured me you were protected. Very good video. The Sierra sounds are freaky!
Thanks for watching! Yea that’s some creepy audio for sure.
Loved it! Beautiful locations, wonderfully filmed! I hope to see more like this.
That means a lot. Thank you!! And I’ll definitely put out more of these.
well done, enjoyed it, very small town monster vibes, so you def are doing something right, keep it up
Thank you so much! I love that channel.
@mikewanders me as well, keep up the great work man!
Dude. I’ve been researching and camping for over 25 years now. Don’t ever go into a wilderness as remote as you are without a firearm, or a way to protect yourself. You got extremely lucky in my opinion that’s just crazy. I would never ever do that. Love the video, though it makes me want to really get in there and go in camp and research. And no, you don’t have to be alone to have an experience. Your chances will be higher, but more than one person at the same time have had plenty of encounters, trust me.
Yes I agree with everything you said. Having multiple people in there can definitely work, and it also helps to have someone corroborate your story, should anything happen.
Imagine you were off trail a couple miles and you had that feeling! Thanks for the video, I enjoyed it.
Yeah it would be pretty creepy. Although I remember feeling that I was unfortunately still pretty far from the car when I got those chills. Like there was nothing I could do except just keep walking
I live in the Northeast, would love to get out there sometime. Quick question what would you of done if one of them stepped out while you were reading your book. As much as I'd love to see one I think I might have a heart attack if I did in that situation!
Back in the 90s I used to hunt in that area, little further north near the Klamath National Forest. I remember that Eerie feeling well, if you get back in there far enough it's like a thick rainforest I remember seeing old buses, probably left there from the 60s and 70s roads completely overgrown, but I distinctly remember getting the feeling of being in a place that I shouldn't be, I never saw anything but it was eerie and definitely quiet.
Funny how the world works.
I'm here in Australia and just randomly decided to look up recent videos on the film site. ❤
Great video.
Wow enjoy Australia for me! Thanks for watching
Everything tilts toward the United States. TH-cam(US company), Apple(US company), Go Pro(US Company), etc. Can’t any other countries come up with any other products the world is interested in?
Australian Yowie research has some interesting witness accounts
They have been documented
In newspapers for years
And the first nations people's of Australia have known od bigfoot possibly 50'000 years
Being as ancient
They've been watching you the minute you put your camera on. So yeah your NOT alone by any means...!!! Hope you had fun.
Yeah I don’t think they miss much in their home 🙏
they been watching him since he sat his foot in the woods, what do you mean camerca LMFAO
Excellent level headed commentary! If they are real you will see them. Good luck and thanks!
I really appreciate that. Thanks for watching
U will only see them if they want you to see them.
Hint: TREAT THEM LIKE A NEIGHBOR BY INTRODUCING URSELF BEFORE ENTERING THE WOODS LETTING THEM KNOW YOU MEET THEM NO HARM. BUT KNOCKING ON TREES AND SCREAMING CAN BE A SIGN OF AGGRESSION.
GOOD LUCK AND BE CAREFUL FOR WHAT YOU WISH FOR. ONCE YOU HAVE AN ENCOUNTER U WILL NEVER BE THE SAME OR THE WAY YOU SEE THE WORLD.
But ask URSELF why are we being lied to about not only Sasquatch but many other cryptic beings. U won't get on film using the same tactics they've been doing for 20years. KNOCKING & WHOOPING .
But walking creek beds or riverways near water it's ur best chance to catch one on camera cause the water interferes with their senses or energy. GOOD LUCK BRO.
Beautiful scenery! Thanks for the walk with you!
Ze zijn echt en je kunt ze juist niet zien omdat ze kunnen spwlen met energie. Wij mensen zien maar zo weing van alle energieen om ons heen.
Appraise you that’s the truth you can’t hunt them they come to you or you happen to see one. Most I’ve heard is always by waterways the stories I’ve heard are always is alike, throwing stones, whoops, and paralleling you out of forest. Seems must e areas that are there territory and that’s maybe where you’ll encounter Sasquatch behaviour that’s enough for Mexica, I do not want to see them. Apparently the redwoods you said you’d been they have been spotted. Appalachia, Ohio and Idaho they not the hot spots. I wasn’t a believer until I started looking into it and watching base camp Chris. I think the trick is just to try go on your merry way not looking and you never know. Good luck.
Its more fun to believe.. so true..
Excellent video..
Thank you!!
That bear was thinking blimey that’s a well dressed Sasquatch 🤣 such a beautiful place brother wow such a treat to experience being somewhere like that away from the madness of society! great vid loved it thanks 👍
Haha thank you so much for watching!!
Your footage is fabulous, you’re very lucky to live where you can be outside of any human contact for hundreds of miles. Here in the UK it’s such a tiny island you’re hard pushed to be away from the drone of traffic. Keep it coming.
Hi from Scotland 🏴 you can get away from the rat race if you go way up North into the mountains, no traffic noise and you can see the stars there’s no light pollution up there either. 👣🥃🏴
I live in Wales and we are surrounded by turbines so there is no escape from noise 😩
Well. I live in New York City BUT I take every chance I get to escape to some of the amazing wilderness areas we have here in the states. And I WILL keep them coming. Thanks for watching!
After my dad passed in 2022, my family took a short camping trip to Crater Lake and I woke up around 2:30AM to incredibly loud but obviously distant wood knocking. Whether that was my dad trolling me from the afterlife or a real Sasquatch, I will never know. But it was definitely an experience I'll never forget.
Sorry to hear about your dad. I lost my dad too and I’m always looking for the signs out in nature. Either way, you had a pretty cool experience!
i am a Patterson great story,my dad said it was true , and after all these years it seems there is alot more of them.....
Wow really??
IVE ALWAYS BELIEVED WHAT THOSE 2 MEN WITNESSED OUT THERE.
@BENNYJET5013 DID THEY SEE THESE BEASTS PRIOR TO THE ONE THEY FILMED ?
ACTUALLY I HEARD THOSE ARE NOT TREE KNOCKS BUT THEM CLAPPING THEIR HANDS TOGETHER. 😮
YES SO TRUE.. THEY VIBRATE AT A DIFFERENT FREQUENCY THEN WE DO.. IDK IF ITS HIGHER OR LOWER THEN US.. AND THEY CAN CLOAK. IF YOU SEE ONE OF 20 OF THEM… ASK HOW THEY CLOAK.. I WANT TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT TOO.
you can see back muscles flex and hamstring movement and calf muscle flex in the Patterson film totally real animal
I agree
hahaha its a man in a gorilla suit dude...
That samurai gibberish sounds like mrs bigfoot " was chewing out mr bigfoot for checking out another lady bigfoot❤ 😂😮😅😊
Yea he was in trouble lol
When you’re in the woods and suddenly everything around you goes real real quiet…. Take 3 deep breaths but as quiet as you can and then … rip the loudest fart you could ever do. Make it as long as possible and as loud as possible doesn’t matter if it sounds wet or whatever, just make sure you do it. It breaks the tension in the air, and whatever’s out there can’t help but laugh their asses off. Even if it’s Bigfoot - they’re intelligent beings and will absolutely find this funny. Once that happens, you and old mate big foot will be laughing and telling jokes around the campfire roasting marshmallows. They’re sick and tired of being stalked and hunted, they really just want to relax and have a good time. Show em that not all humans are uptight (especially if you’re a white guy) - some of us are actually pretty chill. That’s when you spike that hairy man’s drink and knock him out! Then you bring it in and show everyone. You’ll be world famous and rich! But remember, laughter is the quickest way to gain trust..
Well, I spend my time in the middle of nowhere fly fishing. There’s nothing wrong with being out and surrounded by nature. If the Sasquatch legend draws you out into such beautiful places in the same way that the chance of a salmon or big trout does when I’m fly fishing, there’s no harm in that.
Completely agree
Nicely done. You cracked me up when you told the bees to shush 😆
Haha they were so loud. Thank you for watching!
That was an amazing adventure you took us on absolutely beautiful scenery I didn’t want it to and. Keep them coming all the best from Scotland 👣🥃🏴
Thanks so much for that! I’ll have more of these on the way. I also need to do some hiking in Scotland some day!
Was gorgeous reminded me of our gorgeous Bonnie Scotland 🏴 looking forward to the video just started, it’s school time I’m here so stopping and starting lol to get them sorted for school.
Yeah that be great US keep Bigfoot there 👍 don’t let home on a boat- oh no what if he can swim 😂👍 you’d loving it here for hiking and it’s beauty is outmatched - we don’t have huge dense forests or anywhere we’ll not I can think of, but we have huge hills hiking trails. Fairy pools, devils pulpit.
Is why out beautiful HMQE11 loved to spend her summer here.
Beautiful area. Lived in Northern California for about 30 years. Brought back a lot of memories. One clip had anaudio of an ash-throated flycatcher. Love that species
They are great aren't they. I've been in the avian field myself for the past 35+yrs now. Having "hands on" experience with everything from Warblers to Birds of Prey.
@@tomtalker2000 I retired in bird rich SE Arizona. Working on an airbnb for birders as we speak. Slow process as I am the entire building crew LOL.
love this! the birds sounded absolutely beautiful up on that mountain. Natures soundtrack
The spot where you said, “This is a dream come true “, is absolutely stunning! So beautiful and peaceful. What a great place to live out your life if it were possible. GREAT VIDEO! 👍
I live in New Mexico and I've seen the magic brother.
I believe ❤
I’m jealous!
Best video of all time!!!!!
Are you really Going Out there alone? I hope at least you're packing something.
THIS WAS EXCELLENT. I see exactly where you went wrong directions wise. Looks like you ended up near twin lakes? This summer, let's go back and do it. I've camped at the PG filmsite a couple times. If you ever want to link up, I can show you the area, tell you lots of the stories that have happened in these places. If not i can also tell you who to contact for the most information. Ive recorded some weird stuff up there, as have others I've camped with. Some can be seen on my channel and STMs Bluff Creek documentary. Hats off to you dude, great video. -Jonathan Easley
I agree!
Thank you so much! I would love to connect.
You had better be careful, there’s worse things in the twin lakes/onion mountain area than Bigfoot.
@@GrowRedwoodTrees My friends go there very often and have not had any negative experiences. Can you fill me in?
Hello Mike I'm a new subscriber to your channel....I have spent a lot of time out in the wilderness....Grew up in NorCal.....I had an encounter with a family of 3 Sasquatch's in the Fall of 1995 driving near where you are....There was large male, a female and a smaller Sasquatch. We stopped and looked at each other for about 5 seconds, and they all walked away....At first I was thinking that it was a group of hikers hiking at dusk in the light rain....but rather than acknowledge and wave, they disappeared into the brush....I do remember the large male's eyes had a glow to them..I was truly a disbeliever prior to this encounter...Now ...I know They Exist !! Happy Trails !
Wow I’m so jealous, not only of your encounter, but also just the fact that you grew up in NorCal!
Several years ago I was traveling in this same area. My Steinstra camping guide had a footnote that Fish Lake was in the middle of Bigfoot country so I made that my next destination. Fish Lake is in the hills above Bluff Creek. Thw road up tops out at a big clearing where log haulers have plenty of room to maneuver their rigs to take the road down to a sawmill. This clearing is like the hub of a wheel with spokes.
The spokes being the logging roads going into the backcountry. The road to the lake was not clearly marked on my map from there. A middle aged female ranger stopped to see if I needed help. I told her my plight and since she was headed to the lake she told me to follow her. I also asked her if she had ever seen Bigfoot and she said no. She did say that she had a friend that was a female firefighter for the area that claimed she saw one crossing Highway 299 in the middle of the night once. The ranger had no reason to doubt this story. She told me that she had become a believer in the legend of Bigfoot after her chat with her friend.
I wish I found that same ranger because I tried to find fish lake, but couldn’t. And secondhand stories like that are very cool. Thanks for sharing
I loved eatching this! Youre a very good at all of the vlogging. Not many can pull it off, entertaining. My sister and I seen a sasquatch in Okanagan area back in 2000, a white one. Scared the 💩 out of us!
Thank you so much! I’m super jealous that you’ve seen one.
Man, those are the teeniest little baby whoops I have ever heard! 😂 Loved your video! ❤
Haha I know. They sucked. I was trying to be subtle but I wish I just went for it
Those trees may have been freshly broken for you. Could mean warning, could mean welcome? However, appears frehly broken recently? They know you're coming already. Excellent job man! 👏
They did look relatively recent. Pretty cool. Thanks for watching!
@mikewanders can i just say that I really enjoyed watching this today. I've been following different sasquatch researchers on different podcasts/videos for several years now. Your's is the first show I felt like I got to go on that trip too. Thank you for sharing your journey. I really appreciated all your hard work and courage to follow your heart. Strong work brother! Sasquatch will come to you cause you have a good heart. They know. They will look forward to seeing you again, in a good way, and they will protect you too. May take a couple more trips, but believe me you made a good impression on them because you are a humble, compassionate, and a kind man. Trust. I know, cause you're still with us after walking through their living room. Looking forward to more trips to the wild outdoors! Anyways, take care Mike, and really fantastic work! 👍🐵🌲
@@mikewandersDid you receive any telepathically transmitted thoughts?
Hi Mike, great video again, please keep them up. There has been some pretty serious Sasquatch research carried out in the forests of East Texas. Very detailed diaries were kept recording all the sounds and experiences. Trust me, no bears can do the things that those researchers recorded - the rock throwing, whistling, running through the campsite with thunderous footsteps, slapping the side of the permanent cabin so that it literally jumped when whatever it was ( I'm saying forest primate) hit it as it ran past. Bears are tenacious creatures but these weren't no bears!!! The most astonishing thing was how good they are at making themselves heard, whilst staying just out of sight. Despite a ton of high-tech equipment being used by the researchers, they could never get a clear image of one of these animals. Many of the things recorded were-are consistent with large primate behaviour, like lip smacking, wood knocking, teeth clacking, making watery squishing sounds with their mouths, humming, even singing like a soprano opera singer. One day we're going to know much more about them. The problem is a question of conservation; once their existence is established properly, i.e., a specimin is captured or shot and made public, the wild woodlands and forest wildernesses will be full of idiots trying to get one for themselves. That's not good for any of the animals, and given that a fully grown male Sasquatch could probably just pop your head straight off your shoulders like a pimple, not a good idea for humans to go looking for them en mas either - that disturbance will probably just pi** them off, and I don't think you want to be doing that. .
Very well done doc.on Bigfoot & Bluff Creek here in California, good approach on it. Pretty spooky there alone & yes there are a lot of Black Bears up in Nor. CA., and i'm sure there are some mistaken identities with bears, but for the most part, no, most people know what a bear looks like & when you see a Bigfoot you know you are seeing something completely different, you know you are not seeing a bear or any other big wild animals in the forest, Bigfoot is real. Thanks for the adventure, take care,
Serg
Thanks Serg!
From All the stories I have heard, I definetly believe there are much MORE than a couple of thousand. More like a 100,000. Seriously.
Looking through a few of your videos made me just wanna subscribe, the scenery is amazing..great content.
Im a big Bigfoot beliver so im hoping you'll keep serching and showing us more sasquatch vids👍
Thank you so much Simon! I definitely have some more Bigfoot and backpacking trips coming up and will have that content out as soon as I can. Appreciate you!
That’s some beautiful country … thanks for the video buddy…
Thank you for watching!
I watch a lot of sasquatch vids. This was really good, well done. You should do more of these in different locations.👍🌲
Thank you so much. Appreciate that. Yeah I’ll definitely do some more of these in the near future.
I agree! Well done!
I spent the night in that area. Pretty quiet but still a wonderful experience! 3 times Ive gone to Willow Creek California and twice to the museum. Thank you for sharing. Its quiet by the Oregon Caves, but I've had 2 sightings in Oregon and once in Idaho. Had an experience in Maine too years ago, being paralleled. 👣👍🏼😁👍🏼
Near Hoopa I saw some bear tracks and a black bear near outside Hoopa after dark.
The Museum in Willow Creek and the Native American Historical Museum in Hoopa is a must see place,
I purchased some raw land about 10 miles from the Patterson-Grimlin film site a couple of years ago, initially completely unaware of its proximity. There is only wilderness between the two. It is rough, remote and beautiful country. There are many black bears in the area. Precipitaion at film site is over 60 inches a year.The elevation is about 2500 feet. The forest can be very dense in places with a broadleaf understory, making it hard to see even 10 feet in front of you. Extremely biodiverse area. I plan to vist the film site alone myself this coming spring or summer and spend a month or two in the area. I hadn't considered camping overnight at the Patterson-Grimlin site, but I'm thinking now that I may if possible. Mid-August 2023 lightning strikes started a large wildfire near there this past summer and fall and closed the forest. Site may have burned. I'm much more concerned with bears than bigfoot, at this point. Will have bear spray readily accessible. Trees fall across those logging roads and bringing a saw to cut your way in or out may help.
What an incredible area to own land! Yeah I agree with you regarding the bears. And bringing a saw is a great idea just in case. Could easily get stuck out there. I nearly ran out of gas
And who would you call for help, even if you had a cell phone signal, and how would you get out? I’ve been pondering those ones.
Great video.! At 41.10 there was a bigfoot looking at you from the bushes on the right when you were telling the bear to keep going great catch..!!
No there isn't. Stop with the nonsense.
Yes there is just watched it again look closely at the bushes on the right side it blinks 3 timestry slowingitdownyou might see it then.!!@@stephenalex4345
Great one liked the educative sense you bring keep it up !! I have an outdoors and fishing company in Spain and have experienced close encounters and massive snapped trees close to the pyrineess, take care buddy ❤
Wow really? Pyrenees seem stunning. Thanks for comment!
U hang around the whooping long enough u might get the screaming. Now that is terrifying. Let me tell u. Heard one scream camping on the ptc up in the Oregon cascade mtns. Whole woods got quite afterwards
That is SO cool. And terrifying. Yeah not sure id want to hear that alone at night
Not crazy at all. You do you.
They are real. Sit out there for a couple weeks, and they will come to you. Be safe. They are forgiving, but also terrifying.
🐵🌲 🏔 ⛺️ 🌳
Thanks man. I would love to camp out there a couple weeks
I live in Oregon and a couple Christmas’ ago I was about 15 miles in the woods looking for a Christmas tree, and I was taking a break and I got the absolute pleasure of hearing an undeniable tree knock. Just one solid knock. I waited for a while to see if I would hear or see anything but nothing. It was pretty awesome though!
I’m jealous of both the tree knock AND the fact you live in Oregon
dude, you are like the only person ive seen getting right to it.. noone is doing this...im very fascinated to see someone out in Northern California
Appreciate that! Thanks for watching
You ever heard of the channels sasquatch theory and small town monsters? Those guys also do this.
I recommend SASQUATCH THEORY and Small Town Monsters also! 😊❤
Yep, no brainer
Agreed@@krookiemonster2673
Not all who wander, are lost! Keep up the search for the truth! Love your content!
I’ll keep Wandering! Thanks so much!!
@@mikewanders 💞
You're unarmed? Who does that? Bear, cougars..... and Sasquatch?
Great video!! Love this content!! Keep it up brother! Much love from SC
Appreciate it!!
I enjoyed this trip with you. Im glad you were able to experience this area.
I’m glad you liked it!! Thank you
Love seeing the bears thank you for sharing that!
Hit the tree once so that they have to respond back in order to find where the sound came from. If you hit more than once then they can tell where the sound is from and not need to respond back to you. You can also rock clack.
Next time ride a horse in..Roger patterson said he thought the horses he and Bob were on masked the scent and sound of them which allowed him to film patty.
Only problem is that animals that rely on scent, sound and sight too, rely on new or familiar, doubt they had much contact with horses up there.
Sign me up!!
Your “I…saw Sasquatch…” at 30:38 had me rolling 😄
Brilliant documentary! I watch Small Town Monsters,Mountain Beast Mysteries and Sasquatch Theory, but I have just come across you! You seemed to get right into it which I love. I recently watched a video by The Why Files, on Neanderthals and Homo-Sapiens and I tell you what, its eye opening. ❤🇬🇧
Thank you! And I may check out that doc. I do love those other channels you mentioned.
@mikewanders I just happened to watch it the other day and then I suddenly thought, " Oh my god, that description matches Bigfoot and Bigfoot encounters to a T!"
Excellenta
Great work! Look forward to more content! 👍🏻
Thanks man I appreciate that. More to come
Your channel is so underrated!! Love watching the videos and how genuine your approach is ❤
I live in lower Alabama and I've had weird things happen around my house a few times, and then I saw one of those invisible predator things on my neighbor's property when I was looking after his horses for him. Some People seem to think these things are sasquatch. I heard somewhere recently that they had a sasquatch hair sample and they gave it an electrical charge and it went translucent.
What I saw was not huge, normal man size. It was a bright, sunny day and I saw it in the tree line watching me. It jumped back like a startled person would do, then it dropped to the ground and crawled into the woods. My heart fell into my stomach when I saw it. My very first thought was "did I really just see that?" Then I thought maybe I had just seen a ghost. I was ever so grateful that I drove over that day.
I put this whole thing out of my mind for a long time, but now I'm obsessed with trying to find other stories. You'll never catch me in the woods again. I hope that you don't see anything ever because it might just ruin the woods for you like it did me. It makes sense that bf can go translucent if that's what it was. It explains why they aren't seen all the time.
I'm glad I found your channel. If I can't go into the woods anymore then can live vicariously through other's videos. My experience really opened up my mind to the fact that there are things we know nothing about running around our woods. Stay safe.
You said "crawled". It didn't walk or run but crawled. OMG
@@Mary-t5d5c That's what I was thinking at the time, too. I was so freaked out, but of course no one believes me or understands how deeply this has changed my life. I question our reality all the time now, and scared of the woods. I can fully understand that it's tough to believe, but this happened to me, and I wish someone else had seen it, too. My family has not called me a liar, they just don't want to talk about it, and I can't stop thinking about it.
Where do you think they got the idea for "Predator" the movie? They didnt just randomly think it up one day and write a screenplay for it. The 2 brothers that wrote it most likely had an experience with a thing just like you seen. And your just one of atleast 6 to 10 others that i have personally heard of witnessing this... A lady bow hunter filmed one of these, "Predator " type things on her cell phone going from tree to tree out 20-30 yards infront of her as she is sitting in her treestand. You can see the shimmering shape of a man bending and moving the branches as it goes from one tree to the next. F-ing ABSOLUTELY CRAZY TO SEE! 20-30 MINUTES PRIOR TO THAT, her son(I believe), and his entire little league team witnessed a UFO (for a lack of a better word) land in the field next to the baseball diamond their game was being played on less than a mile away from her treestand. Then she films this thing while out for the evening bow hunt. Very interesting, at least. It is really hard to find the video on youtube, tho. At least for me it is.
@@davidfileccia6317 I did see that video and I wrote to her under her youtube channel, but I never heard back. That's ok, I just wanted to share with her that I had seen the same thing. What I saw was much more defined than in the video. It was clearly the outline of a human shape. I have tried finding answers since I saw that thing. It's made me question our reality, especially when I've heard some say they saw it walking on the tree tops like there was some invisible floor up there. I know that I will never know what I saw that day, but it has changed my life forever, and not for the good. I will never go in the woods again and I don't even like being outside. That thing was just standing there watching me with the horses. I'm so surprised they didn't react because horses miss nothing, but then it occurred to me that maybe they were used to it. Thank you for your belief in this whole crazy thing. I never would have believed it if I hadn't seen it and felt so frightened. I do try to remember that it could have hurt me easily if it wanted to. I was alone and limping from an injured knee, but I'll never truly know if these things are dangerous, we know nothing about them. I'm sure our government does, but they ain't talking so....
Whoops Baby.. This was so fun & exciting.. I felt like I was there too !! ❤❤❤
Thank you!
First video I’ve seen on your channel (I subscribed). Loved it! Hiking and Bigfoot are a perfect pair, definitely do more videos of the pair. Love the hat and shades as well man!
I really appreciate that thank you! Yeah I’m definitely going to incorporate the two. Love hiking, camping, wildlife, AND Bigfoot
What a great video and very professionally done. I was hooked throughout. Thank you for the upload.
Thank you so much for saying that
That road doesn't look bad at all! Most of the old logging roads I know are pitted w huge potholes, mud boarded, and one lane, overgrown with hanging tree branches that scrape the truck lol. It was very interesting to hear the Sierra Sounds while beside campfire on a really dark night👍
Yh Sierra sounds are great!! Here's another I have thought since 1st hear that it's valid,SCARY AS SHIT, and just...awesome the link I putting is from SasquatchBioacoustics...it's 4 Sabe vocalizations over a region in St.Louis County, MN...known hotspot apparently?but this recording is one of my top WHOLLY SHIT!! moments when it comes to the power/vocals by these ppl/beings/entities,however they would like to be known!!Enjoy..😁✌️🍻

Man, I wish I went further down that road but was ALSO running out of gas. I can’t wait to return and go further
@@mikewanders oh I would SOOOOO love to go for the adventure!!! Shit like this,makes me hang my head out da window like a dog,..wagging tongue and happy as a mofo hahahaha!!! Been trying to get some brave ppl to team up and hit these hotspots in Oh (im outside Columbus)..they either scared,or doubters...im a believer, not a knower, but wanna get out there and find out!! (without dying a shit B-Movie death 🤣😂) I wanna get to all the big areas across the US..possibly maybe lol..😁✌️🍻🤟
I found the sounds terrifying. Then the campfire shrank...😱
@@fly_speck_cafe I can see it happening:
🏕 🔥 shrinks and goes out!! U or whoever ur company is ,lol,pulls out a 🔦 ,...
Kicks it on, but it goes back out,so u shake it,twist the top tightly,to keep batteries snug.
Turn it on,and as soon as u point it forward...
A dark,ginormous shape is standing behind either u or the person across from ya..
Huge,black outline,or shadow(that u can still actually distinguish, even thought it's dark as shit!)
The only light is from the flashlight and a new moon..
Oh.....
Did I also mention the 👁🗨 shine that was about 7-10ft up In tha air?
Yeah,shitty night.who knows how it turned out..🤷♂️🤔🤣😁😂✌️🍻🤟🍻
Yessir! I think the Sasquits tribe still passes through that area as they traverse... Now they seem to use the Alaska Highway.
Anyone ever try to play the Sierra Sounds backwards? 😊
Paul is dead...
They have.
They did. It said " dont listen to old Ozzy Osbourne records! Life is worth living!"
So, in that regard, a bunch of depressives have banded together in a class action suit against the squatch for their possible subliminal influence toward their continued perseverence in the face of self destructive ideations. They feel that they should be left to their own devices and do not need the encouragement from those with overly large feet and hairy bum's.
I love how ur like actually kinda creeped out walking in the woods. Great video.....spooky cool👍
Haha I was definitely creeped out. Thanks a ton!
How did you get so many views in 3 days with 2k subs? That's really impressive I must say. Cool video too btw
Thank you! yea I have no idea lol
Just the algorithm when people are looking for videos of sas
YOU NEED TO CAMP OUT FOR ABOUT TWO WEEKS THERE
Completely agree
Only, if you are one with Mother Earth. they can sense that, and will physically leave you be. communication( mine, that is), is being two rocks together twice, they bang rocks twice, and I bang one time in response. then, they chatter all night. The Forest People are good, once respect is set.And Never- carry cameras, or Firearms when communicating,leave them, at camp. Deep into the Elderado national forest, is my favorite camping. miles off the main roads
I enjoy the scenery you capture in your videos. This was gorgeous.
Everyone always gets the nose wrong when drawing them or making statues/models. They don't have "monkey noses." Their noses are like ours. Those who have had sightings can attest.
11:13 to the right, there are huge bigfoot to this right and throughout the whole video..This was awesome. THANKS FOR TAKING US ALONG ❤❤❤
Thank you!!
"Guess what, it's more fun to believe"! Words were never spoken more true.
The video should have been titled walking around the woods on a Logging road Talking about Bigfoot
Please do more videos about these topics, you are so talented for it!
Thanks so much for saying that. That is the plan! More on the way
That's the reason you know the film was legit. Who in the hell would bring a suit all the way out there.
I feel the same way with tracks. Who is faking a track in some of these locations that are 50 miles from the nearest road, in the hope that someone will eventually find it.
Amazing!
Thank you!
If you check your time stamp, 18:19 then look over your left shoulder. See thosec4 leaners? I don't think that's natural tree fall.
Interesting! Thank you for watching!
The video count 25:43 with the scenic mountain range is beautiful...how many square miles there with no human presence. Amazing...very nice video and I enjoyed the walk. 👍
Thank you so much
22:15 - Mountain lion defense - Duh... Bear spray. I lived in the mountains of Colorado for years, dozens of times on my deck. Keep your head on a swivel and shoot a short blast if you even think there might be one around. I ain't rocket surgery folks. Air horns will scare them off more times than not as well. Both have belt holsters to carry them in. Speaking of holsters, a .357 works pretty well for both mountain lion and bear. If you don't want to shoot the animal, you don't have to. The gun will NEVER shoot itself no matter how bad things get. YOU have to pull the trigger. Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it. It never ceases to amaze me how many of these guys go into the wilderness without ANY sort of self defense.
Missing 411 candidate
At 4:31 there is a huge black one walking in the woods in the same direction as you❤😊
Your entire video is full of huge massive captures. THANKS for taking us along. ❤
No there isn't. Stop lying.
Some people don't have eyes to see what others can see
Were you strapped? Good video!
No but probably need to start considering for future trips. All my backpacking trips I only carry bear spray
I've heard that whooping sound many years back not long after I had moved onto my farm here in Kansas ! It started east of my farm , answered from the west , then south and north ! It happened for a couple of days in a row !
that's a little scary.
I think you need to see 4 or 5 black bears to equal a ton😂😂
😂
Haha noted!
Great video buddy , beautiful place. respect.💪👍😃♥️
Who else scared 😢
Why would you be scared? WTH? 😂
@@scottfrost8956 even tho I grew up watching bigfoot and stuff I still get scarred when I hear that the things still around after all these years 🤣
@@zackmesser9338there all over in the forests everywhere. In most countries on this planet. Nothing to be afraid of just be aware of your surroundings. Don’t go on the forests alone or Atleast tell someone where you’ll be
No reason to be scared. Even if these things were real, I'd still say don't be scared. These shows are meant to manipulate you by emotions. Don't be the puppet.
Take the suspenseful music off, stop him from talking about Sasquatch, then just watch him drive or walk through the woods, it'd be no problem. The production is manipulating your emotions. 😉
I was 8 years old in the mid 80s when *Werewolf* was aired on FOX 5 (NY), and I was in the mountains of upstate NY then. After watching the show at 8pm, I still went outside alone in the silent night and did not feel fear. It really is all in the mind. If I found myself thinking something fearful, I'd laugh at myself and shrug it off. Gotta laugh it off. Watch as nothing else happens the next minute, the next hour, the next day. See, it's all in your mind.☺️
I live in Wisconsin and last summer about 4 am I got up and made coffee. I had the kitchen window cracked open, and I heard a loud whoop . I called the neighbors later to ask if they heard it . He's like you're just hearing things. I said yeah that's why I called you 😂😂😂😂 . Anyway we live in the country about 100 yards from each other . The only that would sound close is a fox but it wasn't.
That’s awesome man. Jealous
