A listener writes “For 16 years I’ve been having encounters with sasquatch in the mountains near my home in Skagit county Washington. I’ve only ever seen one of them once in the last 16 years but I know they have been around me numerous times while I’ve been hunting or exploring these mountains.
Its a family group with at least 5 individuals, judging from the different size and shape of tracks I’ve found. In the last 6 to 7 years I’ve been exploring there track ways and trails and I’ve come to believe this family group migrates from one mountainous area that’s plentiful in the spring and summer time to another region where there is a lake that never freezes in winter. I assume this high mountain lake dosnt freeze due to hot springs and other volcanic activity in the area.
This group has never displayed any aggression towards myself alone, however the one time I brought my cousin along with me they where less then pleased. It was the first time the big male showed any aggression.
I was pointing out track ways, tree breaks and a couple structures to my cousin when we came upon an alder tree that was pulled out by the roots and stuck into the ground upside down. My cousin was being vary skeptical about everything I was showing and explaining to him unroll we came upon that.
In his curiosity, he walked over and pushed on the inverted alder, and it fell over.
Immediately upon the alder hitting the ground, what I would describe as chest beating started followed by what I can only describe as chaos in the forest. I became intrigued and was trying to observe more but my cousin started crying and was urgently trying to get me to leave. When I realized how upset he was over what was happening I went from investigation mode to trying to get him to calm down and get his wits together before he makes our situation worse.
We made our way out of the area slow and steady trying our best not to upset them further. We never herd them scream or roar or make any vocalizations but when we got to about 100 yards from my truck, one of the group threw the top of a fur tree at us. I can tell you better details at a later date.
I am toying with the idea of some things but I would like your opinion about some things.”
