Some folks here know of my interest in Sasquatch from another board, so I thought it might be interesting to see what the general feeling is on this board. If anyone has experienced odd circumstance while out in the field and cannot contribute such to human or known animal behavior, I would be interested in hearing about it.

I have a bit of history concerning this animal myself and am more than happy to share my own experiences.

Hello Buckskinner

We would like to hear about your own experiences.

Buckskinner let us know a month or so back that he had changed jobs IRC and he would be back with us when he can. I sure hope so because his scouting and research has been awesome.

Buckskinner,
I'm glad to know that you are still searching. Very interesting and I do hope you have some more info for us. I was really getting into the thread you had going on another board before it crashed.

I really enjoy Buckskinners stories concerning bigfoot. I've seen tracks in Ill as a young man on several occasions I could not explain. I'm sceptical, but open minded. I really WANT to belive in this creature. A lot of unanswered questions. POWDERMAN.

pastorp · « **Reply #37 on:** January 26, 2005, 07:24:57 PM »

Let me start off by saying that there are too many legends among aboriginal people groups and reputable people to believe nothing is out there. The real question is, is it flesh and blood.

Concerning burial sites. We find ancient remains of people that are identifiable. I have found the remains of mountain lion, bear, deer, and elk in the woods. not many but they are there.

As adult American citizens we all believe in the rights of others. And should respect their opinions even if we don't agree. Our life experiences mold our opinions, and I can only view this topic from my experiences. Yes I have seen things in the woods that are hard to explain. Do I believe in a flesh and blood animal called bigfoot,no. I do believe something is there and am curious about what it is. So I find this topic interesting.

I live among native american people, and some of them have shared their legends as well as personal experiences with me. I believe them to be truthful.

I also believe there exists a supernatural dimension that we sometimes are allowed glimpses into. At the present time I tend to believe this explanation to be the most plausible. However I try to keep and open mind.

If any of you are interested in a interesting book that took place in southeast alaska, near Petersburg Alaska, the title is "the strangest story ever told" I don't recall the authors name, but the book store in Petersburg still carried it about 3 years ago. It does not deal with bigfoot but rather the "kustikaw" legend of the southeast alaska indians. They were small people according to the story. There is also the "woodman" legend that would be more along the lines of bigfoot.

Interesting discussion. Regards, Byron

This seems to be the book: The Strangest Story Ever Told By Harry D. Colp ISBN 1578330823

Wish I could find a copy - it's out of print and most online stores don't have any.

One thing about bigfoot it is interesting that the creature would be spotted in different areas by different cultures. I mean our bigfoot would have to be related to the yeti? Also stories have persisted for years from the indians on up to modern day. It does make you wonder?

Facts,bones of just about all living critters have been found,facts,a Humanoid would leave behind tools or the remains of tools or be one stupid SOB ,a Chimp is 98+% of our DNA,with all the cameras availible UFO's and Big Foot sightings have all but disapeared and as to tha Scat and hair samples----results please.

Intrepidwizzard, Spirit beings that take on other forms, either animal or human, don't leave anything but tracks. This is common in the legends of the native american people. maybe there is something to these legends. Regards, Byron

Fermented grape has been around for thousands if not tens of thousands of years as has Hemp.[Cannapis]

Intrepid, Are you saying north american indians grew grapes and made feremented wines for thousands of years before contact with the first europeans? Regards, Byron

IntrepidWizard · « **Reply #47 on:** February 04, 2005, 05:05:29 AM »

Where ever grapes grew wine occurred as did vinegar for medical purposes.

pastorp · « **Reply #48 on:** February 04, 2005, 07:37:53 PM »

Intrepid, your answers do tend to be vague.

The native american people do not handle alcohol very well. This statement is sported by federal native health statistics. Of course this is not really the issue when considering the possibility of alochol use or abuse when discussing their culture prior to first contact with the white man.

I will admit that my knowledge is limited compared to some who have done indepth socoligical studies or post- grad. level studies into their history.

All I can say is that unlike most ancient cultures, I have no knowledge of the first nations people in north america using alcohol before first contact with the white man.

If you do I would appreciate facts. If anyone else can contribute to this discussion please help us out. Regards, Byron

Wee Wizard

you just put your foot in your mouth, So I`m personnel giving you a personal invitation to come down here, where I live, and prove to you that he does exist.

Now as far as the grapes and dope that your talking about, I dont know what that`s got to do with bigfoot, I think what you were implying is that the indians, took dope, hemp, grape wine? anyhow that is a bunch of hogwash, can you prove that? no you cant. But I can prove bigfoot to you, so come on down,

Ok guys, the cats out of the bag now, lets, see if he got the courage to follow through.

Maybe Wiz can come down whenever I get to come down and dang it iffen the health holds out I'm gonna. Then while we're waiting fer the big feets to show he can explain some of those ideas of his to me.

At least he moved over here where expression of disbelief in them is not a program as opposed to the other forum where it is. :lol:

Me I'm waiting for proof but have full intentions of letting you show me once the weather is nicer. I ain't sitting out in no ugly cold weather waiting on nuttin.

Alcohal occurs naturaly in nature.Period.Native Americans and those others with type O,0- blood have the highest affinity to alcohal.As to Big Foot I live where he is supposed to live and have never had a sober person see,hear,find parts,tools sleeping areas or kills of Big Foot,I was concerned one night and the next day found the Mountain Lion tracks as the sound of a cat is what most of you have been describing.I am o- and a alcohalic and if I did not find Bob and Bill 35 years ago would still be practicing,I also have Native American blood back 6 generations to what is New York today.

Hi Graybeard, and Wizard

I forgot to mention one thing though, I dont do snakes, so if you-all can make it before the snakes come out, and the ticks

they would be nice.
Also it has to be on a full moon phases. Now if it has to be during the snake season, (thats anytime from April-Oct here), will I guess I can adjust. I just dont know which I hate the most, snakes, or them blood sucking ticks.
Graybeard, where`s your adventure at, nothing like sitting out in them cold night`s awaiting for them critters to arrive. :-D , that is as long as there a warm fire to come home to, too warm up.
But I know what you mean, I`ve got old arthur so bad, I can hardly walk.

Yes even the government is aware of how alcohal, can affect the indians.
There was some military expert (dont know his name, losing my memory as well these days), that said, if the American Indian, had the same firepower as the white man, beginning when the spanish on to present day. and no whiskey was introduced, we would still be east of the mississippi river today. Thats a sobering thought.
But the bigfoot stories were in there (the indians) culture way before white man ever set foot on the north america soil. Here in Okla, we have stone age indian tribes that are extinct now that have stories diffrent tales. about such creatures.
As far as Mountain lion tracks, and sounds, let me asssure you, that it is not. The Tulsa, World newspaper, has as interesting story about my continued sightings, and stories of Mountain lion`s here in my area. I know the difference between the two (Mountain lion`s and bigfoot).

When and if you-all can come down, I will show you the truth.

Got lousy circulation, just cannot stay warm sitting out in cold no matter what I wear. Just not tough enough to hack it anymore.

I don't like snakes either and for sure don't like ticks but can deal with both if necessary. Cold I cannot.

But I'm still in holding pattern waiting to see what the heck the doctors decide is wrong with me and if I'm fixable. Did a pumonary function test yesterday since the heart cath ruled the heart out as the likely cause of my shortness of breath. Right now I have a hard time walking 50 yards before I have to stop and gasp for air. That just ain't gonna cut it so I have to see if I can get this fixed first. Even if it means postponing the trip to next year.

I'm still hoping to be able to make the PD hunt in OK with the NEF gang and should be able to as walking should be minimal there. I also have trips to KY and PA scheduled this year. Was hoping to make it to TX for an exotic hunt this spring but that's looking unlikely now.

Hi Wizard

Can`t show pictures on net, can show you or anyone interested in person. can not put on net, cause of misuse by other bigfoot hunters that like to lurk the net`s, and steal pictures and stories for their own. Seem`s crazy I know, but it happens. But what I have (and I don`t know if I have told Graybeard this), is I have three very convincing pictures, all three taken by me and a buddy (bigfoot hunter, John), with our motion camera`s. One picture was taken daytime, as he walked by a camera. Got the picture of his right leg, should say the entire leg, from hip to foot. Pretty good detail. Next picture was taken of one crossing a creek, the picture was of his head, with face exposed, and shoulders. That picture was from John`s camera. The third one was of him standing by a feeder, at night, that one was pretty rough, not real clear. Then of course the foot tracks, we have taken of him or they walking along the creeks, we used plaster to cast the tracks.
