1 00:00:01,760 --> 00:00:06,440 He attended the 2007 Vancouver Island expedition and the 2008 2 00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:08,840 BC Coastal Expedition. He regularly searches the 3 00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:11,520 eastern slopes of the Rockies for evidence and helped organize 4 00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:15,000 the Alberta expeditions in 2009 and 2010. 5 00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:17,280 And they really get some qualified people to investigate. 6 00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:20,040 They really get some qualified people to investigate these 7 00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:21,680 sightings. I think it's great. 8 00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:25,920 This one is dated September 10th, 1975. 9 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:31,800 Alberta, Canada Location details Monument Picnic area named after 10 00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:34,400 Henry 12 foot Davis, a local gold miner. 11 00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:38,280 Gourd Hill area which overlooks the confluence of the Peace and 12 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,280 Smoky rivers. Nearest town Peace River. 13 00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:45,240 Nearest Rd. Curved grand gravel road to 12 14 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:48,760 foot Davis. Gravesite Observed 1975 15 00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:50,640 September Dusk just started to turn dark. 16 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:54,560 I was 18. I drove to the 12 foot Davis 17 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:57,200 gravesite picnic areas in Peace River with a friend. 18 00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:00,120 We walked on the hillside behind the gravesite. 19 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,920 There were no birds chirping. Everything was silent. 20 00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,240 The hairs on the back of my head, the hairs on the back of 21 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:09,840 my neck were standing up. I decided to use the outdoor 22 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:12,080 toilet facilities when my friend returned to the car. 23 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,440 When I was about two feet from the washroom door, I saw a 24 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:19,800 shadow move, heard a heavy exhale and detected A musky 25 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,600 stench. The toilet facility was about 8 26 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:24,680 to 9 feet high in pyramid shaped. 27 00:01:24,960 --> 00:01:27,800 This thing was standing beside it and I estimate his height to 28 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,280 be at least 7 to 7 1/2 feet tall. 29 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:34,160 I felt an eerie sensation and chose to forget about using the 30 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:36,640 washroom. As I turned to walk back toward 31 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,040 the gravesite, my friend yelled for me to get in the car. 32 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,080 He had been watching in my direction. 33 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,640 When I turned to look behind me, I was immediately terrified. 34 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:49,720 This creature, definitely not a bear, was following me behind me 35 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:53,800 on all fours about four feet away, with its rear end raised 36 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,560 in the air. It was pushing itself along in 37 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,280 an ambling fashion and appeared to be sniffing at me. 38 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,480 It had light, dark blondish hair. 39 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,840 It didn't resemble a bear. Its body had sparse hair with 40 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,400 more on its arms and legs. Its face was ape like, with 41 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,280 little hair on the face but more on the head. 42 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:16,040 The hair appeared extremely coarse, almost like a horse's 43 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,840 winter mane. I rent to the car, jumped in and 44 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,440 we speed away around a corner and down the hill. 45 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:26,640 As we drove off, the creature rose up and briefly chased the 46 00:02:26,640 --> 00:02:29,080 car. It appeared angry, standing 47 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:32,200 upright like a human, not like a bear swinging its arms and 48 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,880 screaming. It followed us a short distance 49 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,960 down the hill. When I got home, I was so upset 50 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,720 that I told my mother. She passed the information along 51 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:42,400 and someone went up there the next day. 52 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,600 They didn't see anything but they didn't find, but they did 53 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,960 find Tufts of hair. It's been 30 years and I still 54 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,040 remember every detail. That kind of terror stays with 55 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:57,880 you for the rest of your life. From I guess so under also 56 00:02:57,880 --> 00:02:59,200 notice. Please see commentary. 57 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,520 Muskie scent like collar did not stand or look like a bear. 58 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:04,600 Other witnesses. My friend was standing by the 59 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,120 car waiting for me. The doors were open. 60 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,560 In December 1975, our friend working for the power company 61 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,200 saw several large footprints near the power lines outside of 62 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,080 town. That's interesting. 63 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,720 Dusk, just trying to get dark, cool weather. 64 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,600 It had rained earlier in the day, very quiet, no birds 65 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,400 chirping, extremely silent. The moon was shining. 66 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:28,160 Environment, heavily forested pine, Evergreen, short bushes, 67 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:31,880 grassy hillsides and hills. And then we have a follow up 68 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,800 investigation by BFO investigator Cindy Dawson. 69 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,200 I had a lengthy conversation with this witness and found her 70 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:41,760 to be credible. This incident occurred in 1975 71 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:45,720 when she was 18 years old. Her boyfriend, who was with her 72 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:49,160 at the time, is now deceased. She recalled driving up to the 73 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,840 location on a late September evening around 6:30 to 7:00 PM 74 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,040 for a walk after strolling to a lookout point. 75 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,800 They were returning to the car when she decided to use the 76 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,760 ladies room. She heard a deep breath and 77 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,160 exhale within 20 feet of the facility. 78 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:06,960 Assuming it was a bear, she backed up slowly. 79 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,400 She then saw an upright animal standing next to the washroom. 80 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,760 Her boyfriend was parked no more than 30 feet away. 81 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:17,200 He saw the animal and yelled get into the car now. 82 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,399 When she looked back, the creature was 5 to 6 feet away, 83 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,600 down on all fours, sniffing the air behind her. 84 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,440 It was crawling awkwardly with its rear end raised like 85 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:29,880 children do when crawling with straight legs and hands. 86 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,760 Because of her close proximity, the witness was able to recall 87 00:04:33,840 --> 00:04:37,080 many details. The hair was copper blonde in a 88 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:39,600 collar. The limbs had more hair than the 89 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:43,440 torso and the ape like face had less hair than the head. 90 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:47,280 The hair was coarse, similar to a horse's mane. 91 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:51,400 Once she got in the car the creature stood on 2 legs and let 92 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:55,480 out a loud screech going into an angry fit as they drove away. 93 00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,280 And tell me that wouldn't put a little bit of a startle into 94 00:04:59,280 --> 00:05:01,120 you. Very cool sighting there. 95 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:07,760 This sighting says February 10th and 17th, 2007 Alberta, Canada. 96 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,600 Location details, Google Earth positions and original e-mail to 97 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:16,520 Gary Cronin, nearest town. Cochrane, AB Forestry Trunk 98 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:23,400 Forestry Trunk Rd. 940 observed this took place in February 2007 99 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,400 during the week of the 10th to the 17th. 100 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:29,200 Not certain which day now. Around 2:00 PM in the afternoon, 101 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:33,160 a couple of friends and I were 4 Wheeling on a trail in the Purse 102 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,880 Recreation area heading from north to South. 103 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,080 We were approaching the first Creek crossing, just rounding 104 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,480 the corner. As I was scouting ahead, I 105 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:43,920 noticed something standing on the trail ahead of us across the 106 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,080 Creek. This person appeared to be 107 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,640 wearing all dark, seemingly reddish clothes and looked like 108 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,920 they had on a big parka. I stopped and watched this 109 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,440 person and noticed they were looking at us. 110 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,040 It appeared to be all one caller. 111 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,880 We were approximately 400 meters away with no discernible 112 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:05,680 features. It appeared to be all one collar 113 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:09,680 with no discernible features. We were approximately 400 meters 114 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,360 away. No lighter colored face as I 115 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,600 would have expected. The staring lasted for less than 116 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,360 a minute before the figure turned its head, took two 117 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,920 strides and disappeared into the densest part of the Bush off the 118 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:25,160 trail heading east. Both my friend and I looked at 119 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,720 each other and commented on how weird that seemed. 120 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:31,480 What struck me at the time was how smooth those strides were. 121 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,680 They were graceful. At the time, I chalked it up to 122 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:36,320 being a person I wouldn't have been. 123 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,400 It wouldn't have been the first time we saw someone walking 124 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,960 around there in the winter. Although people usually stick to 125 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,520 the trail. It wasn't until about a month 126 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:48,600 ago, after seeing ATV Special about Sasquatch that had hit me. 127 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:52,640 The GPF creature walked the same way this figure did. 128 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,400 I haven't been able to get it out of my mind since. 129 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:59,240 There's no doubt in my mind that this was unusual. 130 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,720 Both my friend and I thought the behavior was odd for a person. 131 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,280 Considering the number of sightings in Alberta, I now 132 00:07:05,280 --> 00:07:07,560 believe this could very well have been a Sasquatch. 133 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,720 Unfortunately, we didn't look for tracks and other evidence as 134 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:15,360 we assumed it was a human. Still, the stride never sat 135 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,920 right with me. It seemed to cover about 20 to 136 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:22,120 25 feet in two strides. Also, I'm not unfamiliar with 137 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,440 the woods. I've travelled and camped from 138 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:28,680 from Waterton National Park to pass Grand Cache all along the 139 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:32,240 Forestry Trunk Rd. and side roads for the past 20 plus years 140 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:36,560 and I've never seen, smelled, heard or stepped in anything I 141 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,360 couldn't identify. After I submitted my initial 142 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,640 report, the other witness and I discussed the event. 143 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:44,680 It became clear he was watching a different figure. 144 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,720 Mine left the trail to the east and his left to the West. 145 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,720 I didn't notice his figure and he didn't notice mine. 146 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,680 He was parked behind me, I was leading and we were 147 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:58,440 communicating via CB radios. Other witnesses? 148 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,400 Yes, one other witness out of the four people total. 149 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:05,600 Prior to the incident, we were driving 4 wheel drives along a 150 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:07,760 trail. Other stories? 151 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,480 Yes, after that I was reading a book by Tom Steinberg. 152 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:14,240 He relates the story from the 1980s that occurred less than 3 153 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,120 kilometers from where we were it. 154 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:19,840 There were also many sightings around Lake Minnewanka, which is 155 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,680 due West of this area by about 15 clicks. 156 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:26,280 Time and condition between noon and 2:00 PM. 157 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:31,520 Clear and sunny around -10 degrees Celsius Pine and popular 158 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:36,360 forest valley with a Creek and Beaver Dam flowing east to West 159 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:39,400 and this is follow up by Gary Cronin. 160 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:43,120 The two different possible Sasquatch's were witnessed at 161 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:44,760 the same time by two individuals. 162 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:48,520 I met with both witnesses and we both drove out to the encounter 163 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,360 location spending time reviewing the events. 164 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:55,440 The witnesses were off road approximately 7 kilometers off 165 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,760 the main Rd. The first witness was slightly 166 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:01,960 ahead of the others and came around a corner where he noticed 167 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,520 what he initially thought was a person standing in the middle of 168 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,040 the trail. After a short observation, the 169 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,360 figure moved into the woods to the east. 170 00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:15,400 At this point, this witness. At this point witness #2 had 171 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,560 driven up about 50 meters higher on the trail and saw something 172 00:09:18,560 --> 00:09:21,280 as well. After a few seconds he watched 173 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:25,360 it move into the West, into the woods to the West. 174 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:27,640 Neither witness discussed it at the time. 175 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:30,200 It both felt that something unusual had happened. 176 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,360 Only recently, after discussing the incident in more detail, did 177 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,800 they realize they had seen two different figures. 178 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:40,320 When we re enacted the events it became clear how this occurred. 179 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:44,080 The first creature had moved off the trail before the 2nd witness 180 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:46,880 arrived. The second witness stopped at a 181 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:51,080 different angle and was able to see farther where the second 182 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,840 figure was standing. The wooded area they entered 183 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:57,240 would have provided AMP cover. The frigid temperature 184 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:03,160 approximately -10°C or 14°F, had an absence of other vehicles 185 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:06,120 that day make a human explanation unlikely. 186 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,800 The unusual movement observed further supports the likelihood 187 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,720 of a Sasquatch encounter. Both witnesses have extensive 188 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,960 experience in Alberta wilderness and are very familiar with the 189 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:19,040 local wildlife. And that's really something. 190 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,200 Pair of these things walking around out there. 191 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:26,000 This one's dated spring, that's April 2005. 192 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:29,800 Alberta says it was north of Stony Plain, nearest town 193 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:33,360 Edmonton nearest highway Hwy. 16 observed. 194 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:36,640 My daughter, aged 13, and I were traveling toward Edmonton when a 195 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,680 animal came out of the Bush by the highway on my right. 196 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:43,160 I was watching it careful carefully to see if there was a 197 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:47,920 deer and whether it had others and whether it and whether it 198 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:51,000 had others following it. It was the size and shape of a 199 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:54,000 large chimpanzee. It was light brown and collar 200 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,440 and moved with two armed swinging motion. 201 00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:00,560 I was concerned enough that it might be an animal not to not 202 00:11:00,560 --> 00:11:02,640 meant to be loose, so I called Fish and Wildlife. 203 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,200 The officer said he was convinced it was a bear cub. 204 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,920 However, I have seen many bear Cubs running and this was very 205 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,520 different. It was much faster and it didn't 206 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:14,720 have the large paws typical of a baby bear cub. 207 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:19,480 We watched as it crossed ahead of us toward the north and 208 00:11:19,560 --> 00:11:22,840 noticed it did not have a tail, not even a tucked one. 209 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,000 Could it have been a young Sasquatch? 210 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:28,120 We didn't stop. I wish now that I had to look 211 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,400 for Prince, but at the time we were a little stunned. 212 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:34,080 Other witnesses? She asked my 13 year old 213 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:35,680 daughter. She was also watching it 214 00:11:35,680 --> 00:11:37,960 carefully and asked me afterward what it was. 215 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,960 She has seen many animals and knew this one was different. 216 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,520 Other stories, no. I'm wondering if anyone else has 217 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:45,800 seen something like this and if it's possible that it could have 218 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,920 been a young Sasquatch. Time and conditions It was late 219 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:50,800 morning, overcast with a light drizzle. 220 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:55,400 There was a Bush fairly close to the divided highway on both the 221 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:59,920 South and N sides. This one is dated September 222 00:11:59,920 --> 00:12:04,680 10th, 1975. Alberta, Canada. 223 00:12:04,680 --> 00:12:06,880 Location details Monument picnic area. 224 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:10,200 Named after Henry Twelvefoot Davis, a local gold miner. 225 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:14,080 Gordon Hill area which overlooks the confluence of the Peace and 226 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,480 Smoky rivers. Nearest town Peace River nearest 227 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:21,040 Rd. Curved grand gravel road to 12 228 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:25,840 foot Davis gravesite observed 1975 September dusk just started 229 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:27,720 to turn dark. I was 18. 230 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:32,120 I drove to the 12 foot Davis gravesite picnic areas in Peace 231 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:35,240 River with a friend. We walked on the hillside behind 232 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,680 the gravesite. There were no birds chirping. 233 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,320 Everything was silent. The hairs on the back of my neck 234 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:43,640 were standing up. I decided to use the outdoor 235 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:45,880 toilet facilities when my friend returned to the car. 236 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:49,200 When I was about two feet from the washroom door, I saw a 237 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:53,600 shadow move, heard a heavy exhale and detected A musky 238 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:56,360 stench. The toilet facility was about 8 239 00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:58,440 to 9 feet high in pyramid shaped. 240 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,560 This thing was standing beside it and I estimate his height to 241 00:13:01,560 --> 00:13:04,040 be at least 7 to 7 1/2 feet tall. 242 00:13:04,680 --> 00:13:07,920 I felt an eerie sensation and chose to forget about using the 243 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,400 washroom. As I turned to walk back toward 244 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,800 the gravesite, my friend yelled for me to get in the car. 245 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:14,840 He had been watching in my direction. 246 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,360 When I turned to look behind me, I was immediately terrified. 247 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:23,520 This creature, definitely not a bear, was following me behind me 248 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:27,720 on all fours about four feet away with its rear end raised in 249 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,360 the air. It was pushing itself along in 250 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,080 an ambling fashion and appeared to be sniffing at me. 251 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:37,920 It had light dark blondish hair. It didn't resemble a bear. 252 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:41,280 Its body had sparse hair with more on its arms and legs. 253 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:45,360 Its face was ape like with little hair on the face but more 254 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:48,120 on the head. The hair appeared extremely 255 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,760 coarse, almost like a horse's winter mane. 256 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:55,200 I rent to the car, jumped in and we speed away around a corner 257 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:58,280 and down the hill. As we drove off, the creature 258 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:00,880 rose up and briefly chased the car. 259 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:04,160 It appeared angry, standing upright like a human, not like a 260 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:06,720 bear swinging its arms and screaming. 261 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:09,360 It followed us a short distance down the hill. 262 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,640 When I got home, I was so upset that I told my mother. 263 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:15,640 She passed the information along and someone went up there the 264 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,840 next day. They didn't see anything but but 265 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:22,560 they did find Tufts of hair. It's been 30 years and I still 266 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,640 remember every detail. That kind of terror stays with 267 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:30,840 you for the rest of your life. I guess so under also notice. 268 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,160 Please see commentary. Musky scent like collar. 269 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,120 Did not stand or look like a bear. 270 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,200 Other witnesses. My friend was standing by the 271 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,720 car waiting for me. The doors were open. 272 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,160 In December 1975, our friend working for the power company 273 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,320 saw several large footprints to the power lines outside of town. 274 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:49,640 That's interesting. Dusk just starting to get dark. 275 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:51,440 Cool weather. It had rained earlier in the 276 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:53,680 day. Very quiet, no birds chirping. 277 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:55,960 Extremely silent. The moon was shining. 278 00:14:56,640 --> 00:15:00,720 Environment, heavily forested pine, Evergreen, short bushes, 279 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:04,480 grassy hillsides and hills. And then we have a follow up 280 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:07,360 investigation by BFO Investigator Cindy Dawson. 281 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,760 I had a lengthy conversation with this witness and found her 282 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:14,320 to be credible. This incident occurred in 1975 283 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:18,320 when she was 18 years old. Her boyfriend, who was with her 284 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,760 at the time, is now deceased. She recalled driving up to the 285 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:25,440 location on a late September evening around 6:30 to 7:00 PM 286 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,640 for a walk after strolling to a lookout point. 287 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:31,400 They were returning to the car when she decided to use the 288 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:34,360 ladies room. She heard a deep breath and 289 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:36,800 exhale within 20 feet of the facility. 290 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:39,560 Assuming it was a bear, she backed up slowly. 291 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:43,000 She then saw an upright animal standing next to the washroom. 292 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:46,400 Her boyfriend was parked no more than 30 feet away. 293 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:49,800 He saw the animal and yelled get into the car now. 294 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:53,040 When she looked back, the creature was 5 to 6 feet away, 295 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,240 down on all fours, sniffing the air behind her. 296 00:15:56,640 --> 00:16:00,040 It was crawling awkwardly with its rear end raised like 297 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,480 children do when crawling with straight legs and hands. 298 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:06,360 Because of her close proximity, the witness was able to recall 299 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:09,680 many details. The hair was copper blonde in a 300 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,240 collar. The limbs had more hair than the 301 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:16,040 torso and the ape like face had less hair than the head. 302 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,880 The hair was coarse, similar to a horse's mane. 303 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:24,000 Once she got in the car, the creature stood on 2 legs and let 304 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:28,080 out a loud screech going into an angry fit as they drove away. 305 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:31,880 And tell me that wouldn't put a little bit of a startle into 306 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:33,680 you. Very cool sighting there. 307 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:40,360 This sighting says February 10th and 17th, 2007 Alberta, Canada. 308 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:44,240 Location details, Google Earth positions and original e-mail to 309 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:50,080 Gary Cronin, nearest town. Cochrane, AB Forestry Trunk Rd. 310 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:54,960 940 observed. This took place in February 2007 311 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,000 during the week of the 10th to the 17th. 312 00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,160 Not certain which day. Now around 2:00 PM in the 313 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,480 afternoon a couple of friends and I work 4 Wheeling on a trail 314 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:08,440 in the Purse Recreation area heading from north to South. 315 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:10,680 We were approaching the first Creek crossing just right in the 316 00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,040 corner. As I was scouting ahead, I 317 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:15,440 noticed something standing on the trail ahead of us across the 318 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,640 Creek. This person appeared to be 319 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:21,200 wearing all dark, seemingly reddish clothes and looked like 320 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,480 they had on a big parka. I stopped and watched this 321 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:27,000 person and noticed they were looking at us. 322 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:31,000 It appeared to be all one collar with no discernible features. 323 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:35,960 We were approximately 400 meters away, no lighter colored face as 324 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:39,280 I would have expected. The staring lasted for less than 325 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:42,040 a minute before the figure turned its head, took two 326 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:45,600 strides and disappeared into the densest part of the Bush off the 327 00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:48,840 trail heading east. Both my friend and I looked at 328 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,400 each other and commented on how weird that seemed. 329 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:55,160 What struck me at the time was how smooth those strides were. 330 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,360 They were graceful. At the time, I chalked it up to 331 00:17:58,360 --> 00:18:00,000 being a person. I wouldn't have been. 332 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:03,080 It wouldn't have been the first time we saw someone walking 333 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,720 around there in winter, although people usually stick to the 334 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,160 trail. It wasn't until about a month 335 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:12,280 ago, after seeing ATV Special about Sasquatch, that it hit me. 336 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:16,280 The GPF creature walked the same way this figure did. 337 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,080 I haven't been able to get it out of my mind since. 338 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:22,880 There's no doubt in my mind that this was unusual. 339 00:18:23,360 --> 00:18:26,360 Both my friend and I thought the behavior was odd for a person. 340 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:28,920 Considering the number of sightings in Alberta, I now 341 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,200 believe this could very well have been a Sasquatch. 342 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:35,360 Unfortunately, we didn't look for tracks and other evidence as 343 00:18:35,360 --> 00:18:39,000 we assumed it was a human. Still, the stride never set 344 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,560 right with me. It seemed to cover about 20 to 345 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:45,760 25 feet in two strides. Also, I'm not unfamiliar with 346 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,040 the woods. I've travelled and camped from 347 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:52,320 from Waterton National Park to pass Grand Cache all along the 348 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,880 Forestry Trunk Rd. and side roads for the past 20 plus years 349 00:18:56,240 --> 00:19:00,200 and I've never seen, smelled, heard or stepped in anything I 350 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:03,000 couldn't identify. After I submitted my initial 351 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:05,280 report, the other witness and I discussed the event. 352 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:08,360 It became clear he was watching a different figure. 353 00:19:08,360 --> 00:19:11,360 Mine left the trail to the east and his left to the West. 354 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:14,360 I didn't notice his figure and he didn't notice mine. 355 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:18,320 He was parked behind me, I was leading and we were 356 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:22,080 communicating via CB radios. Other witnesses? 357 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:25,040 Yes, one other witness out of the four people total. 358 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:29,200 Prior to the incident, we were driving 4/4 wheel drives along a 359 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:31,400 trail. Other stories? 360 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:33,080 Yes. After that I was reading a book 361 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:35,520 by Tom Steinberg. He relates the story from the 362 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:39,520 1980s that occurred less than 3 kilometers from where we were 363 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:41,880 it. There were also many sightings 364 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:45,440 around Lake Minnewanka, which is due West of this area by about 365 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:49,000 15 clicks. Time and condition between noon 366 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:54,080 and 2:00 PM. Clear and sunny around -10°C, 367 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:58,480 probably in popular Forest Valley with a Creek and Beaver 368 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:02,480 Dam flowing east to West and this is follow up by Gary 369 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:05,400 Cronin. The two different possible 370 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,840 Sasquatch's were witnessed at the same time by two 371 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:09,880 individuals. I met with both witnesses and we 372 00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:14,360 both drove out to the encounter location spending time reviewing 373 00:20:14,360 --> 00:20:17,240 the events. The witnesses were off road 374 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,960 approximately 7 kilometers off the main road. 375 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:23,880 The first witness was slightly ahead of the others and came 376 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:25,600 around a corner where he noticed. 377 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:29,200 What he initially thought was a person standing in the middle of 378 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:31,720 the trail. After a short observation, the 379 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,000 figure moved into the woods to the east. 380 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:38,960 At this point, witness #2 had driven up about 50 meters higher 381 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,200 on the trail and saw something as well. 382 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:44,680 After a few seconds, he watched it move into the woods to the 383 00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:47,000 West. Neither witness discussed it at 384 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:48,880 the time. It both felt that something 385 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:52,000 unusual had happened. Only recently, after discussing 386 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,440 the incident in more detail, did they realize they had seen two 387 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:58,200 different figures. When we re enacted the events, 388 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,080 it became clear how this occurred. 389 00:21:00,360 --> 00:21:03,880 The first creature had moved off the trail before the 2nd witness 390 00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:06,640 arrived. The second witness stopped at a 391 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:10,840 different angle and was able to see farther where the second 392 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,640 figure was standing. The wooded area they entered 393 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:17,040 would have provided ample cover. The frigid temperature, 394 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:22,960 approximately -10°C or 14°F, had an absence of other vehicles 395 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:25,920 that day make a human explanation unlikely. 396 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,640 The unusual movement observed further supports the likelihood 397 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,520 of a Sasquatch encounter. Both witnesses have extensive 398 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:35,760 experience in Alberta wilderness and are very familiar with the 399 00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,840 local wildlife. And that's really something. 400 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,000 Pair of these things walking around out there. 401 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:45,800 This one's dated spring, that's April 2005. 402 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:49,600 Alberta says it was north of Stoney Plain, nearest town. 403 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:53,160 Edmonton nearest highway Hwy. 16 observed. 404 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:56,360 My daughter, aged 13, and I were travelling toward Edmonton when 405 00:21:56,360 --> 00:21:59,440 a animal came out of the Bush by the highway on my right. 406 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:03,040 I was watching it carefully to see if there was a deer and 407 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:04,600 whether it had others following it. 408 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:07,680 It was a size and shape of a large chimpanzee. 409 00:22:08,120 --> 00:22:11,080 It was light brown and collar and moved with two armed 410 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,760 swinging motion. I was concerned enough that it 411 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:16,680 might be an animal not meant to be loose, so I called Fish and 412 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:18,480 Wildlife. The officer said he was 413 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:21,840 convinced it was a bear cub. However, I have seen many bear 414 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:23,880 Cubs running and this was very different. 415 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:27,440 It was much faster and it didn't have the large paws typical of a 416 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:30,880 baby bear cub. We watched as it crossed the 417 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:35,000 head of us toward the north and noticed it did not have a tail, 418 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,640 not even a tucked one. Could it have been a young 419 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:39,720 Sasquatch? We didn't stop. 420 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:43,880 I wish now that I had to look for Prince, but at the time we 421 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,680 were a little stunned. Other witnesses? 422 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,200 Yes, My 13 year old daughter. She was also watching it 423 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:51,480 carefully and asked me afterward what it was. 424 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:54,480 She has seen many animals and knew this one was different. 425 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,040 Other stories, no. I'm wondering if anyone else has 426 00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:59,320 seen something like this and if it's possible that it could have 427 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,440 been a young Sasquatch. Time and conditions It was late 428 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:04,320 morning, overcast with a light drizzle. 429 00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:08,920 There was a Bush fairly close to the divided highway on both the 430 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:12,920 South and N sides. Follow up investigation report 431 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:14,920 by BFL investigator Blaine McMillan. 432 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,280 I spoke to the witness by phone on January 3rd. 433 00:23:17,360 --> 00:23:21,240 On February 13th, 2006 she was able to clearly recall the 434 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,240 incident. She was travelling to Edmonton 435 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:26,680 on Hwy. 16 around 10 AM. The sky was overcast and 436 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:29,360 drizzling. As she drove, an animal came out 437 00:23:29,360 --> 00:23:31,640 of the scrub brush that parallels the road on the right 438 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,360 hand side. At that point, she was about 200 439 00:23:34,360 --> 00:23:37,240 meters away from it. She slowed her vehicle in 440 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:40,360 anticipation of a sudden stop. When she slowed, the creature 441 00:23:40,360 --> 00:23:43,280 crossed a 50 meters of open ground across the divided 442 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:45,600 highway, moving from right to left. 443 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,800 It disappeared into the scrub brush that borders the northern 444 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:53,080 or West side of the highway. She clearly observed its 445 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,840 profile. She estimated it to be about 3 446 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:59,400 feet tall at the shoulder. It had a small head with no 447 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:04,080 snout and no visible ears. Its hair color was a reddish 448 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:05,880 brown. She was adamant that it was 449 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:09,120 running on all fours, with the ends of its front limbs not 450 00:24:09,120 --> 00:24:12,840 ending in paws like a bears, but in folded hands, much like a 451 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:16,120 gorilla or chimpanzee. She said she was very familiar 452 00:24:16,120 --> 00:24:20,040 with bears of all sizes, as she is a forestry worker, and 453 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:22,080 insisted that what she saw was not a bear. 454 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,960 She also had the impression that it moved much faster than a bear 455 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,800 cub. Well, she's a forestry worker. 456 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:30,680 I'm hoping she knows what a bear looks like. 457 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:33,920 Wow, what a sighting. We'll do three more here and 458 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:37,080 wrap this up. The sighting occurred at 459 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:39,760 November of 2003. Alberta, Canada. 460 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,600 Location details about 40 kilometers South of Longview. 461 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:45,720 Nearest Rd. Unknown observed friend and I 462 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:47,760 route hunting South of Longview, Alberta. 463 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:51,760 We had tried our look up a road called the Indian Graves but saw 464 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,800 nothing so we headed back to the main road going South. 465 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:58,320 As we were heading South, we rounded a bend in the road. 466 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:01,680 Once around the corner, we noticed the hillside on the 467 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:04,000 right. The tree line started at the 468 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:07,080 bottom of the hill and ended about halfway up with two pine 469 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:10,960 trees at the very top. Suddenly my buddy said, what's 470 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:13,720 that thing up there? I was driving, so I took a quick 471 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:17,000 glance and saw a large black figure standing between the pine 472 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:20,000 trees at the top of the hill. I began to slow down and pull 473 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:23,520 over when this thing moved from the top of the hill through 474 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:27,280 about two feet of snow to the tree line in about 3 seconds. 475 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:30,120 I estimated the distance to be about 100 yards. 476 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:33,120 We watched it in the trees for about a minute and then it 477 00:25:33,120 --> 00:25:35,680 disappeared. We both agreed that whatever it 478 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,000 was, it had been walking on 2 feet. 479 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:40,800 Wow. Other witnesses one time and 480 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:42,920 conditions around 2:00 PM. Lots of cloud cover. 481 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:47,960 Environment Foothills, it says. On May 5th, 2007, I spoke with 482 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,320 John and found him to be a highly credible witness. 483 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:52,720 John is a very avid and successful hunter. 484 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:55,320 He and his hunting partners are very familiar with the area, 485 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:59,000 having harvested many types of wild game near the location 486 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:02,640 where the sighting occurred. John explained that game animals 487 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:05,760 are often spotted along the hills and ridges that run 488 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,800 parallel to the roads. It was his partner's job to 489 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:12,640 monitor these hills as they drove from 1 hunting location to 490 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:14,920 another. When John's partner spotted 491 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:18,480 something moving on a Ridge to the left, he slowed and stopped 492 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,800 the vehicle. From inside the truck, the two 493 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,800 hundreds watched a large, upright, bipedal creature walk 494 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:26,640 down the slope and into the safety of some brush. 495 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:30,920 John stated that it covered a distance of close to 100 yards 496 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:34,040 in a short amount of time. Despite the fact that the snow 497 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:38,600 was nearly 2 feet deep. John exited the vehicle and 498 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:41,160 steadied himself against the hood of the truck so he could 499 00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:43,240 inspect the brush with his binoculars. 500 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:46,040 Over the next minute, he observed what appeared to be a 501 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:48,040 Sasquatch moving through the thicket. 502 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,080 He described his head as being connected directly to its body 503 00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:54,160 with no visible neck. The hair covering its body was 504 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:56,840 black and varied in length across different areas. 505 00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:00,440 John noted that the creature appeared very muscular and well 506 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:03,400 proportioned, except for the arms, which were longer than 507 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:05,640 usual. After about a minute, he could 508 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:08,000 no longer see it moving in the trees, and he and his partner 509 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,360 returned to their vehicle. At that point, they tried to 510 00:27:11,360 --> 00:27:14,280 make sense of what they'd just seen as seasoned hunters. 511 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:16,280 They both knew it could not have been a bear. 512 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:19,840 If it had been a human, it would have been wearing a blaze orange 513 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,680 and carrying a weapon, neither of which were observed. 514 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:26,520 The witness did not hear any vocalizations, nor did he detect 515 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,320 any odors. However, since he never saw the 516 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,560 creature leaving the thicket, he felt that it might still have 517 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,040 been hidden there when they drove away. 518 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:40,160 Wow, that is really cool. And they do point out the blaze 519 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:43,000 orange is not required in Alberta, but this thing looks a 520 00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:44,960 lot more like a Sasquatch than a man to me. 521 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,840 OK, two more. This sighting was reported March 522 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:50,800 10th, 2003. It says it actually happened in 523 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,480 September of 1993. Alberta, Canada. 524 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:57,120 Nearest town Nordegg Hwy. 11 observed. 525 00:27:57,120 --> 00:27:59,000 Hello. My sighting took place at a 526 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:03,240 small campsite called Camp Alexo, located West of Rocky 527 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:06,280 Mountain House and east of Nordeg around 10 years ago. 528 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:08,920 Of course, this is 1993 when this happened. 529 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:11,880 You're probably wondering why I'm just reporting this now. 530 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,440 It's because I only discovered this reporting site today. 531 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:17,640 The sighting occurred one night when our youth group decided to 532 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,200 go for a walk. We headed down a hill past the 533 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:23,080 boys cabin and came to a set of railroad tracks. 534 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:27,120 We turn to laugh and follow the tracks toward an old cemetery we 535 00:28:27,120 --> 00:28:30,040 had been told about. When we found the cemetery, we 536 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:32,240 explored it for a while. Some of the graves dated back to 537 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:36,280 the 1800s to the 1900s. After about an hour, it started 538 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:38,560 to get dark, so we decided to head back. 539 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,920 As we were walking back along the tracks, one of the girls 540 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:44,960 suddenly screamed. When we turned around, we saw 541 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:48,600 her flashlight shining on an odd on an old tower. 542 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:52,400 I wasn't prepared for what I saw, and to this day, the hair 543 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:55,640 on my neck stands up whenever I tell the story. 544 00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:59,240 On top of this tower, which was approximately 40 to 50 feet 545 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:02,600 high, stood a creature. When we all shined our 546 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:06,000 flashlight on it, it proceeded to jump off the tower. 547 00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:10,640 As it raised its arm to jump, we could clearly see the hair 548 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:14,840 hanging from its limbs. What really struck me was how it 549 00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:19,440 jumped from that height as if it were stepping off a curb only 550 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:23,160 one foot high. After it landed, it ran off into 551 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:25,480 the bushes. We could clearly hear branches 552 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:29,080 and trees breaking as it fled when everything was silent until 553 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:32,280 about a minute later. Then we heard a loud, eerie high 554 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:34,800 pitched scream that cut right through US. 555 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,600 I know it was 10 years ago, but I know what I saw. 556 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:40,480 Until that day I die. I'll say it was him. 557 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:44,200 Now. That is maybe the strangest one 558 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:46,800 I've ever heard. Jumping off a 50 foot tall tower 559 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:48,600 just like they're stepping off a curb. 560 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,600 Just kind of goes into my notion these things might be 561 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:53,920 interdimensional. That's strange. 562 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,200 Also noticed, yes, there was a distinct odor lingering in the 563 00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:59,720 air. Witnesses 14 to 20 people were 564 00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:02,120 hiking together. Other stories, yes, in the main 565 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:05,080 cabin there are articles and pictures documenting sightings 566 00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:08,640 in the area over the years. Time approximately 9 O clock in 567 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,440 the evening environment I believe was a typical spruce. 568 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:15,200 Forced follow up investigation by BFO investigator Adrian 569 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:18,200 Erickson. I spoke with RC and IB, who are 570 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,480 both 16 years old at the time of the incident. 571 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,080 I found both individuals to be credible. 572 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:26,920 I also spoke with the manager of Camp, Alexa, who confirmed that 573 00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:29,320 there have been several sightings in the area over the 574 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:31,920 years. In fact, the 1988 researcher 575 00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:35,960 Renee Dehindon visited the area to investigate similar reports. 576 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:40,160 As someone who is quite familiar with the area and who has worked 577 00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:43,600 there extensively, I investigated and discovered the 578 00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:46,760 tower was actually wooden cribbing along the railroad 579 00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:50,560 originally used to load coal. Based on where the Sasquatch was 580 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:54,040 standing, it likely jumped approximately 20 to 25 feet to 581 00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:55,720 the ground. Well, of course, her kids would 582 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:57,160 probably seem higher than that to him. 583 00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:01,840 RC noted that he was most struck by the creature size, but the 584 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:04,280 first thing he noticed was a hair on its arms. 585 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,080 He also mentioned that it didn't appear to have a neck. 586 00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:10,400 Yeah, isn't that something else? Really wild. 587 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:13,920 OK, we'll do one more here. This report was made September 588 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:16,920 24th, 2005. Actually happened in June of 589 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:19,080 1998. It says. 590 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:21,920 Location details. Camp Alexo is located about 20 591 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:23,960 to 30 kilometers West of Oregon Hwy. 11. 592 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:28,120 On Hwy. 11 you follow the Alexa road to the right, Saunders 593 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:31,640 Campground and boat launches to the left for about 4 kilometers 594 00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:34,120 nearest town Nordegg newest Rd. Alexa Rd. 595 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,360 Hwy. 11. It's like the same area sounds 596 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:38,320 like. I've been going to the summer 597 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:40,640 camp near Nordig since I was nine years old. 598 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:42,720 This happened during my first time at the camp. 599 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:46,240 On the second day there, we were all separated and playing a 600 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:49,640 white game, a game in which the camp's attendees were spread 601 00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:53,720 across the entire camp boundary. I got separated from the group 602 00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:56,720 I've been travelling with while searching for them. 603 00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:59,280 I was running through the woods between the Pioneer cabin and 604 00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:03,000 the Webster cabin when I tripped and fell over a big log. 605 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:05,440 As I was getting up I noticed something. 606 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:08,600 It was very tall with dark matted brown fur. 607 00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:13,080 Its face looked almost human, but with a wide bone structure, 608 00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:16,360 a slightly extended pinched nose and a wide mouth. 609 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:20,560 He, I think it was a he, was standing upright with one very 610 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:22,800 large hand gripping a tree next to him. 611 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:26,040 After a brief moment of eye contact I screamed and he calmly 612 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:28,880 walked away. I kept screaming and stared into 613 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:33,320 space he had just vacated for a few more seconds before running 614 00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:36,800 until I found a path, eventually rejoining my group at Pioneer 615 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:38,680 Cabin. The southernmost tip. 616 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:41,480 So it sounds like this thing just disappeared. 617 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:44,680 Says there was a slight funky smell. 618 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:46,920 Mid to late afternoon. It was warm and sunny, though 619 00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:48,800 the light was partially filtered by material. 620 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:50,960 Trees. Environment A typical mixed 621 00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:53,480 forest with many very tall old trees. 622 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,480 There were logs scattered in places and the forest floor was 623 00:32:56,840 --> 00:33:00,600 covered with Moss and grass. Follow up investigation by 624 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:04,640 Blaine McMillan says I spoke with the witness over the phone. 625 00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:06,960 This sighting occurred at Camp Alexa and Alberta. 626 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:10,000 During the call, she mentioned being amazed at how the creature 627 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:14,160 moved with grace and elegance I would never have expected given 628 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:17,280 its long powerful legs. Very very cool sighting. 629 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:19,360 A lot of cool stuff on here from Alberta. 630 00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:21,560 Canada just seems to be full of these things. 631 00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:24,120 Hope you like the program. Like I said, don't forget to 632 00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:26,400 like follow, subscribe. Until next time, this is UFO 633 00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:26,800 warning.
