What we surmise about local sasquatch activity...

(This profile will be adjusted as we receive more reports)

Where and when are they encountered: People report seeing, hearing, or being intimidated by sasquatch all over wilderness areas of this region at all times of year, but especially in spring and fall months. They are seen crossing public highways and on ATV trails. They approach hunters, fishermen, and campers in the middle of the wilderness and even occasionally in public campgrounds not too far from town. They are found in public lands and on private property. Encounters occur usually between dawn and dusk, but not exclusively,

Size/shape/number: They are usually between 6-8 feet tall, covered in a darker tone of hair, and have a human-like look about them but with a flatter nose. Their faces generally have less hair. Usually you only see one at a time, but they suspected to travel in small family groups. You might hear two of them doing "wood knocks" back and forth, but seeing two is incredibly rare. Black, brown, and blonde sasquatch have all been reported in our area. 

Behavior: Roadside crossings happen even on state highways. Hunters and fisherman sometimes experience more aggressive behavior like rocks thrown, trees pushed down, and terrible screams, presumably because they are threatening the creature's food source. Campers will hear footsteps and strange sounds in the middle of the night. Property owners may find cattle with heads suspiciously torn off or missing feed. Sometimes the creatures seem curious, other times disinterested, other times downright angry. The latter seems more likely when you encroaching on their territory or if you are threatening a food source. 

Sounds: Lion-like roars, siren-like howls, samurai-like jabber, whoops, grunts and whistles have all been heard. The well-known "wood knocks" seem to be some a form of communication between members of sasquatch troops or family units. If you hear a wood knock, it's unlikely the sasquatch is alone. Of course, keep in mind that a wood knock could always be another person.  Be careful making any of these noises in the woods, because you do not know what you might be saying to a nearby sasquatch. You also don't know if what you hear is actualy a sasquatch, or a "squatcher" trying to find one. We discourage you from making howels and doing excessive wood knocks, as it will teach the local sasquatch that humans understand this communication.

Paranormal: Some people report paranormal activity such as strange lights or UFOs in conjunction with their sasquatch encounter, but most people just see a large, living, breathing creature. 

Can I find one: Probably not, and if you do, it's likely to be angry that you found it. Just enjoy nature safely and let them come to you if they choose. Above all, be careful out there. Many people who report encounters note that it was terrifying. We can suggest places for you to camp where you MIGHT hear one, if you will agree to report back anything that happens, and to follow our safety guidelines.  

Movement: It seems likely that sasquatch live in troupes and are frequently on the move, similary to great apes and even primitive humans. This is part of the reason they are so hard to find. When they are traveling they are less concerned about being spotted by humans. This is why they don't seem to mind crossing roads right in front of cars. If you encounter a sasquatch on the move, it's likely to be a brief encounter. But if you approach them near their home territory, where perhaps the women and children are staying, you will get a very violent response. Similarly, if you are seen threatening a food source, for example, hunting or fishing or berry picking where they hoped to reap a harvest, you might get a violent encounter of screams, rock throwing, and escorting you out. So, you don't need to be afraid in public campsites--where sasquatch might rarely pass through, but they certainly don't LIVE there--but be very careful if you go deep into the wilderness.

Intelligence: They probably know what guns are. They probably recognize individuals who spend a lot of time in the woods along with their vehicles. They know which areas are likely to have humans and which areas rarely have humans. They dislike and avoid humans because they see all the evil things humans do in the wilderness.

Territory: No one knows, but a reasonable guess is that their territory is possibly, very roughtly, somewhere between 10X10 and 30X30 miles. Regardless of what the size might be, they know this territory like we know the backs of our hands, or even better. They will notice the slightest disturbance. They probably have different territory during summer (higher altitudes, berries) than they do in winter (lower altitudues, unfrozen water, concentrates game).
