I 'm gonna go squatchin'
    #17362543 - 12/09/12 04:59 PM (12 years, 1 month ago)

I'm not totally convinced either way. I've had too many experiences. I wanna try and go out to Pisgah periodically from now until spring, then take a few solo trips out once I get to the BWCA. That's where the bulk of my encounters were.

Has anyone done this or know how to go about it?

I would not take beef jerky with you.  From my understanding it makes you quite brazen in your squatch encounters, and playing jokes on a squatch never ends well.

What is this, amateur hour? Everybody knows Jack Links is critical to a successful hunt.

Very true.  Those guys always seem to find a squatch...

This is from my post in the creepy stories from the outdoors thread:

The following accounts happened within the same 10 day trip on the south arm and main body of Knife Lake in northern MN as well as on Newfound lake. It's a very long section of water for people traveling by canoe (7 miles or so total I would estimate.)

1) On night 5 of the trip we reached the south arm from the lake to the southeast and settled into a campsite near Eddy falls. I was nestled into my hammock for the night with a tarp pulled over me like a blanket in case it were to rain. I was in a deep sleep and it must have been 2 or 3 am since it was still dark and the sun comes up at like 4:30 there. I awoke to the sound of sobbing. It sounded like a woman and it was growing ever closer. then I heard the footsteps coming through the brush and trees toward our campsite. The noise entered the campsite on the side I was sleeping on and before long I could sense that whatever it was was standing right next to my hammock. I flung the tarp off half expecting a scared scout but instead my hand struck a rather solid body that then sprinted off into the dense forest. Startled, I awoke my crew and did a head count only to find that everyone was in their tents asleep. I waved it off as a bear encounter and went back to sleep.

2) The next day we moved to a campsite another 3 miles southwest down the lake and settled in once again. I was out gathering some firewood while the scouts cooked dinner. As I worked through the forest I heard a really strange primal sounding scream that made my muscles tense up and my hair stand on end. I involuntarily produced a strange whooping bark-like vocalization that I've never ever heard come out of my own body. This happened once more immediately after the first one. I was pretty shaken at this point, but stayed strong and calm when I got back to camp as any good guide would do.

3) The following day we decided to do something unconventional and go for a night paddle. We sat around camp all day and relaxed then at around 10:00 pm we left camp and kept heading southwest toward base camp. At about 1:00 am we came to the pinch of land separating Newfound Lake from Moose Lake. Here we had to cross through a relatively narrow passage of shallow water. At it's narrowest it's probably 25 yards from bank to bank. We were exactly at this point when out of the darkness of the right bank comes a flying rock. And I mean a ROCK! This thing was very large to have made it the 15 yards from the bank to right in front of the canoe. Either a world strongman threw that rock or something really big living in the woods did. The rock landed on a flat shoal next to us; a piece of flat-topped granite about a foot under water. The rock was so large it still had a foot sticking out of the water and was too heavy to pick up.

I have also had some experiences here in NC, in the the Wilson Creek watershed of Pisgah National.

There have been several time's that I've heard whoops and yip, but two other experiences stand out to me.

One such experience occurred about two years ago. I was camping at the base of Bard Falls because I like the white noise created by swiftly moving water. I woke up and went to retrieve my bear bag which was several hundred yards away. I got to it and someone/something had actually lowered it the way it was supposed to be done. Whatever it was took a pack of hot dogs out, closed the bag up, an left it on the ground. Bears don't do that.

My other experience was only about 6 miles from Bard Falls. I was with a buddy of mine hiking back to camp after an afternoon at Little lost Cove Creek Falls. We were hiking along a ridge at dusk and could barely see down into the valley through the thick bush. From down below we heard a few limbs snap and then a series of splashes like "one, two, one, two" as if it were walking on two feet. They were distinguished steps rather than what it sounds like when a bear walks through water and it's all just one jumbled splashing sound.

I grew up in Tennessee on the NC border just outside the Smokey Mountains Park.  We lived way back in the middle of nowhere, and as such, I was very used to "woodsy" stuff.  Every so often, we would hear sounds that seem an awful lot like the "primal sounding screams" you are talking about.  It was truly terrifying.  I knew lots of people that heard similar things, and the local consensus was that it was panthers, however I was never convinced. 

The main thing I remember about these sounds was that my first reaction was always complete terror.  I've often heard bears and other unidentified sounds in the woods and they never caused such a strong emotional reaction in me.

This was like a really loud WAAAAHHHHH! Each scream lasted about a full second.

I went to wilson creek a couple months ago per your suggestion guru and we had some weird stuff happen but nothing concrete. Weird calls/noises, my buddies dog being bat shit scared, and wood knocking. Also had weird stuff happen near brevard and linville gorge wilderness and the Maine mountains near the AT. 

My best encounter happened at uwharrie national forest though in the birkhead wilderness area. We were out there for 6 days and 4 nights. I was in a one man tent and woke up at 2-3am to a bipedal animal quietly doing circles around my tent. It was within 15 feet of me, the leaves were cracker dry, and you could hear everything perfectly. You could feel the ground rumble. There was a full moon and i didn't have my rain fly on - i tried to look through the top of the tent where the mesh netting was but as soon as i moved it took off. The previous night we had heard the most insane calls - it was alteast 3-5 of them.

Nice! I haven't been to uwharrie in years, but i've heard some stories.

Yeah, that is the main thing I remember about these is how long they were sustained for.  When I listen to wild cat sounds they seem to change in pitch from high to low and back to high.  The sounds I heard we like a solid vocalization that sounded almost like the bimbo scream in a horror flick...  Each sound would last for what seemed like forever, and then nothing for like 5 minutes, then it would happen again.  I can remember it happening 4 times over a short period once.

Some of the old dudes who lived in the area claimed that they had seen the "booger" that made the sounds, but most people said they were just crazy old men.

Too bad that bigfoots don't exist...

If you do search, make sure to take the cast of finding bigfoot with you so you can have a good laugh. That show cracks me up. The shit they say with a straight face. The "Finding Bigfoot" crew is constantly making random statements about the behavior of Sasquatches as though they are established facts: "Squatches are attracted to women", "Squatches are attracted to bacon", "Squatches are attracted to music", etc. If Bigfoot is attracted to women and bacon and music, how come they aren't showing up at NFL tailgate parties? With the advent of trail cameras and their latest tecnology being employed by tens of thousands of hunters, outfitters, and naturialists, you would expect to see at least ONE good reliable photo to have appeared, if there was really anything out there. No bones have EVER been left by dead bigfoot. Even if porkypines got to the bones (HAHAHAHAH), the skull, back bone and pelvis would remain. Has there every been a bigfoot hit by a car, train or truck in the past 100 years? No, because they don't exist.

Is the cast of "Finding Bigfoot" a bunch dumbasses or are they just laughing at the viewers? Is Ranae an ugly woman or fairly attractive man? These questions remain to be answered.

haha. Have fun in the woods, it must be nice and cold this time of the year. Are you going to be camping?

If you are actually considering looking, I recommend LOTS of trail cams, and do NOT, under any circumstance, employ the tactics of the finding bigfoot show.

Have fun :smile:.

I'll check it out ASAP! I was a hardcore skeptic too, but once it happens to you you can't deny it. The hardest part is that people think you're bullshitting when you really aren't embellishing anything. I think they're out there. People claim shit bout bones and bodies and so on, but when it comes down to it, where are the bear skeletons? Lion skeletons? These are big cretures with big bones. That's a lot of marrow! I'd eat it if I were a smaller forest creature. Nothing goes to waste out there. Nature recycles everything and given the theoretical numbers applied to bigfoots it makes sense that people don't find bodies. Just the sheer size of wilderness areas where sasquatches are reported to live is staggeringly large. The chances of finding a fresh carcass out there is next to imposible. And who's to even say they don't dispose od their dead in a formal way? The truth is we don't know any of it for sure. The fact of the matter is that some wierd shit happened to me out there.Some shit that I cannot explain even as an avid and seasoned outdoorsman/hunter.

Bear bones are easy to find, even in acidic soil (if you know what you are looking for). I've went with early American experts on lots of trips into the forest, and bear bones are not hard to find at all (and I've gone in multiple states).

As for lions, whole different continent. We don't have bone eating vultures (in large amounts) or hyenas here in north america.

Bigfoot is a whole lot of bs.

poke, that still doesn't explain the idea that the species might be intelligent enough to bury their dead. There is pictographical evidence that these creatures pre-date humans. It's totally concievable to me that they are far more intelligent than other great apes.

All speculation aside, Northern MN and southern Ontario have a large population of wolves. Wolves (like all canid species) will undoubtedly scavenge for food when no live prey is avaliable. We all know how much dogs love bones :shrug: Perhaps the wolves are burying/eating the bigfoot bones. That, coupled with the expansive wildernesses wherein these creatures are reported and the supposed small numbers makes their existence totally likely.

Consider my personal experiences. The rock that was thrown at my canoe was too large to have been thrown 15 yards by a man. He would have needed a small catapult. Even with that, it was pitch black. I know it wasn't somebody screwing around with a catapult in a place that is only accessible by canoe or float plane. Bears don't throw rocks, and rocks don't fall from the sky (it wasn't a meteorite, I checked).

OK, that was too epic for me not to be a believer :wink:.

But really, the fact that a highly intelligent great ape is wandering around undiscovered is microscopic. We would know if they were there by now!

The most convincing report I've ever heard is Les Stroud's account of his encounter in Alaska. Stroud has spent years and years in wilderness areas all over the world. He knows his shit and that makes him extremely credible in my opinion. When I hear Les Stroud say he heard something and it wasn't a know animal of Alaska, I believe him.


The following is also very convincing for me. It's a real 911 call in Washington state and it's pretty creepy. You can just hear it in his voice. He's scared shitless.

The fact that you were tripping makes it hard to really judge what you may have actually heard, but It's not uncommon for squatchers to claim that female bigfoots make a deafening screech. There have been a few of these screams recorded around the Olympic Peninsula in Washington.

I find her somewhat attractive simply because she's a woman who isn't afraid to go out in the bush after dark and attract the attention of large creatures. That's kinda hot.

The following video is the best sasquatch footage I have ever seen. The movement is so natural, the footage is pretty clear, and IMO it would be extremely difficult for a man to move like that.
