+bitbrain Posted January 25, 2003 Share Posted January 25, 2003 Anybody out there seen signs of Bigfoot in the forest? I've been watching the Travel Channel tonight & all the Sasquatch habitat they're showing looks like prime caching terrain as well. Maybe I should get out more... Quote Link to comment

On Glastenbury Mtn. in Vermont, he's known as the Galstenbury monster. (He's not very bright; kept pointing the camera the wrong way). You can check out my log here. geospotter Quote Link to comment
+pater47 Posted January 25, 2003 Share Posted January 25, 2003 Remember the famous photo of Sasquatch walking through the forest? In fact, I think there's one cacher that uses that photo as an avatar. Well, I caught Sasquatch out of the costume in that very same pose. And guess what? He's searching for a geocache! In fact, he's been seen frequently in your area, bitbrain. You may recognize him. Visit the Mississippi Geocaching Forum at http://pub98.ezboard.com/bgeocachingms Quote Link to comment

+ShaneN4Girls Posted January 25, 2003 Share Posted January 25, 2003 On a trip to the Weminuche Wilderness in 2001 we saw this... thing... Took the picture then took flight. Someone out there... Cache a million bucks please. I've got three weddings to pay for sometime soon... Quote Link to comment
+Web-ling Posted January 25, 2003 Share Posted January 25, 2003 Haven't seen Bigfoot, but I've run into Geo Dee a few times... Quote Link to comment
+bitbrain Posted January 25, 2003 Author Share Posted January 25, 2003 ArkansasBugMan says there's a Sasquatch inhabiting the Wapanocca National Wildlife Refuge in the Arkansas Flatlands. If you read my log for Just Ducky you can see a photo I took on the way to that cache. I think I may have captured a view of the Sasquatch's nesting place. Quote Link to comment

targetdrone Posted January 26, 2003 Share Posted January 26, 2003 A group of us had driven down to San Diego to take a picture of Zoo-Ology TB at the zoo a few days before the Superbowl. Since we were down there, we decided to do a few caches. While in the downtown area, we spotted a small herd of Elvises (Elvi?) just walking down the street. You can't believe how relieved I was. I hadn't seen Elvis during my last few trips to Vegas, and I was starting to believe the rumors of his death were actually true. "It's free advice and worth every cent." Quote Link to comment
+GrizzlyJohn Posted January 26, 2003 Share Posted January 26, 2003 How about making Sasquatch sightings a locationless cache. Oh nevermind, people hate those kind of caches. Quote Link to comment

+ArkansasBugman Posted January 27, 2003 Share Posted January 27, 2003 The Wapanocca Sasquatch has chewed up more than one tupperware container cache. But he's fascinated by ammo cans. We had a cacher leave his GPS at a cache resently, and when he returned a few minutes later it was nowhere to be found. But he did find big footprints leading into the swamp. Be on the lookout for Bigfoot's Cache in the near future! Quote Link to comment

Now the big fellow will be able to find his way out of the forest and he will soon make his way into our cities and towns.

yeahright Posted January 28, 2003 Share Posted January 28, 2003 Maybe it isn't such a good idea for your home waypoint to be blatantly labeled "HOME"? This cacher might just find Sasquatch (or the opportunistic finder) outside his front door. I've renamed my home waypoint to something obscure. I guess I should remove any saved tracks and routes that start or end at my door. In my Legend, I have substituted the info so that a finder could return the unit to me where I work: name = name street # = name of work waypoint street name = the word "waypoint" city = "Return for Reward" state = state zip = zip for work location comment = "Day Phone 555-555-5555 x555" You know what they say: "Just because you're paranoid, doesn't mean nobody's after you!"

dsandbro Posted January 28, 2003 Share Posted January 28, 2003 What about a sasquatch dressed as an Elvis impersonator? Bonus points if he is piloting a UFO in the Bermuda Triangle. ======================================== Friends don't let Friends geocache drunk. Quote Link to comment

+evergreenhiker! Posted January 28, 2003 Share Posted January 28, 2003 I was hiking towards a cache hidden in the Lewis River area: http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?ID=28923 It was about 830 am and I was about a half mile short of the Shelter when I heard a whinnying type sound a couple of times. A couple minutes later, I heard the calls again. I assumed it was a horse, but however, I never saw a horse that day and the sounds were perpendicular to me...perhaps a couple yards away or so and by the river. A couple weeks later, I was researching about Bigfoot via an old friend's friend Jeff Lemley's Bigfoot site. Jeff's name was listed at end of the above mentioned documentary at teh end of the show. He organizes Bigfoot searches. Anyway, the sounds I heard were similar to recordings on the site. Hmmmm!!! Not only that, the Lewis River area is within the 100 mile Dark Divide area known to have Bigfoots. One more thing: My old friend's brother saw it in the upper drainage system of the Klickitat a couple years ago. He described it as being grayish with a somewhat flattish face and about 8 feet tall. He was driving when it crossed the road in the late afternoon and it looked at him for a minute than it continued it's way into the trees. Jeff and my friend Jason and his brother Tay who saw the thing went back to look for signs, but saw nothing conclusive thanks to the hard ground surface of the immediate area. I plan on joining Jeff and his crew sometime next summer to look for it. Quote Link to comment
boreal jeff & sons Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 When I was younger, I helped out an old trapper who has long since died. He told me of this time, when he was younger, and trapping in the wilds of Northern Ontario, he found the tracks of something big around his traps and his traps were be set off. He described the tracks and they sure sounded like Big Foot's. He said this went on for about two winters and then it stopped. He never did see the tracks again. I've always wondered about this. I could never find any information about Big Foot anywhere else in North American except in the Rockys. Most of the area where he trapped has been stripped logged and no other accounts of this has ever been reported. Maybe the animal is very shy and moved out the area when they started logging. Every hour spent geocaching is added to the end of your life Quote Link to comment

+ArkansasBugman Posted January 30, 2003 Share Posted January 30, 2003 I think I saw that on the way to Bitbrain's 4x4 Offroad Adventure Cache today.It get's kinda spooky in those Wolf Rivers bottoms when you go there alone! Quote Link to comment
+CYBret Posted February 1, 2003 Share Posted February 1, 2003 I was doing some reading online on bigfoot sightings a while back and was amazed to find that two of the parks I've been caching in had bigfoot sightings about 20 years ago. Then again, that was around the time that there was a lot of bigfoot hype, so who knows. Whatever happened to that "Bigfoot trap" cache that I remember from about a year ago?

Sassquatch Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 that the stories of my demise are greatly exagerated. I am alive and well and currently caching in Dallas TX. Haven't been spotted at cache sites by humans as of yeti. My computer in the woods is very slow what with the squirrels I use to power it so I'm waiting to get back to the great northwest to log all my finds. Gotta go, humans are near. Quote Link to comment
