This topic seems to come around once a year or so. There are reports even from BFT members seeing (smelling, hearing, etc.) a B.F. here in Utah. The debates always seem to come down to physical proof.

Me, I'm neutral on the subject. I'd like to think there's something real about all these "encounters" but I also keep a realistic view as well.

Either way, it makes for some fun campfire stories.

Absolutely, positively, 100% real!! I agree with Curt about the Uintas and i have also had an encounter at Lost Creek under the wall.[shocked]

OK. I will admit it, I am a closet Big Foot junkie. My wife just laughs at me when I share with her my excitement about this topic.

Part of me hopes that more and more Big Foot evidence will not surface and that these creatures will never be discovered.

I think it will take a lot of the fun out of it. All the folklore and stories that go along with this topic are GREAT.

If anyone is interested in the most up-to-date info on Sasquatch, I would recommend reading Jeff Meldrum's book:

Sasquatch: Legend Meets Science*

*Quick link to book:

Barnes and Noble has a paperback copy for around $15. As was stated in the article, all the evidence is summed up and explained very well.

And if someone doesn't know, there is a DVD that goes along with the book, you can purchase it for around $35 from links provided at the Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization (BFRO) website:

Quick Link to DVD:

In addition to the above, there is a DVD of collected and compiled sound recordings, here is the link:

The BFRO had an expedition in August-September of last year on the North Slope of the Uintas. The report from members and attendees has not been made public, but I am excited to read it. There have been a couple of eyewitness accounts from Mountain View and Lonetree, Wyoming.

The Utah encounters in the 80s and 90s were acually quite serious. The State even sent out wildlife officers. And the Forest Service sent out rangers to look for evidence at the alleged creature. Although in public statemens, they said they were looking for grizzlies-supposedly they posed a danger to sheep and farm animals-and unusual wildlife behavior reported by the witnesses.

Well, I won't tell you any more, so as not to ruin the fun and surprise of reading the accounts yourselves.

The BFRO and its partners and links provide, in my opinion, the most scientific and accurate information on Sasquatch. They are a real organization with members that are experts in their field. I would recommend going to their website and examining it completely, before any other source. You will be very impressed and intrigued. They also have an excellent link that explains how to make casts of footprints, along with other evidence preservation tips. You never know when you may come across a piece of evidence, and have to regret later that it will be useless because you were not prepared.

Also, I would highly recommend reading two recently added reports on the BFRO's website about Utah encounters. If anyone chooses to look through this information, have fun and keep it simple. There is alot out there, and it is easy to get sucked into the lunatic fringe-which ties Sasquatch to spirits that come in and out of existence at will, along with other nonsense.

I too am a closet bigfoot fan.. I liked the bfro site. It was cool to read the Utah accounts

Anyone looking for a good bigfoot story should read the short story "Taming the Sasquatch" by Lee Nelson Great read! Check the library.. for "Favorite Stories" authored by Lee nelson. It's in that book as well as a couple others he put out.

This video is obviously a very untalented and overly-delibarate hoax. It is absolutey ridiculous.

Funny they never find one dead lol......

My thoughts exactly! There has never been one hit by a car or winter killed. Most of the sightings come from hunters that say that they were "too scared" to shoot it.
It's all a bunch of crap "100%". There are thousands of people that have dedicated (wasted) their life to finding Bigfoot and with all the years of research, they have nothing. All we have are some dumb clips of a guy with a gorilla suit on walking throught the woods. Those guys are now rich and accomplished what they planned on doing the whole time.
It's fun to think that there is something like that out there, but there has never ever been any evidence to confirm it. With all the technology we have now days and all the land that we can cover, someone should have found something by now.
There's no Bigfoot!!! [:p]

I bet you don't believe in UFO and USO's either[Wink].
[signature]
No not really.
Space is a big place and I guess it's possible that there are other worlds and beings out there.

I understand that new species of animals are still being found, but they are in places that haven't really been explored yet. Bigfoot is supposed to be around here in our neck of the woods, There's not much territory that hasn't been explored round these parts.

Who knows what to believe??? All I know is that if some guy trys to play a trick on me and run around with a gorilla suit on, he'll be dead. That goes for the aliens too. I'm not going to walk around and tell people that I saw an alien or a bigfoot. I'll just drop the tailgate and let everybody see the wierd dead thing. After that, I would sell it for Millions and the stupid myth would be over and I would be rich.[cool]
There ya go.[Wink]

Sounds like you have heard of UFO's but how about USO's? Unidenified Submerged Object is a new term and there is growing evidence of them also, even the military has sited them from many different ships. There was even a documentary on the Discovery channel a few weeks back.

That's a new one for me. I know that there have to be some wierd creatures hanging out down on the bottom of the ocean floor, but that's another thread.

I was just watching a documentry on Big Foot last night on the History channel. There were a bunch of women that spent like two months out in the wilderness in search of the elusive Bigfoot. They set up cameras all over the place and put out fresh apples on a tree stump every night. They also would make these wierd yelping noises to try and call the bigfoot in.
Honestly, It was pretty entertaining. They never found anything anywhere. The camers just took pictures of elk and critters. The apples were gone every night but they could only find elk and deer tracks around the stump. They were still convinced that Bigfoot took the apples. They also found some broken tree branches that Bigfoot had grabbed and snapped (I guess theres no other explanation for a broken branch).
Pretty funny stuff! Gave me and the wife a good laugh.
