Jason Kenzie is an expert animal adventurer
with 25 years of field experience.
Caution and companionship is advised
for all who venture into the deep forest or backcountry.
There we go.
Hurry up, Chad!
Yeah, okay, so-
The other one down here?
Now for the other one.
Oh, what happened?
At the marker?
Yes.
The cast?
Yes!
What? - Dude the cast is gone.
The cast is gone.
Before I began my investigations into the lore of Bigfoot,
I traveled the world meeting people
who lived with the most amazing animals.
The dynamics that surround these forest giants
is very complex.
Wow, this is so cool.
As a skeptic, I'm on a mission, an adventure of a lifetime,
to find evidence that if these Bigfoot creatures are real,
I can once and for all put my doubts aside
and share with the world that that sound
of that simple crack in the forest
may not just be a chipmunk.
My name is Jason Kenzie.
These are my chronicles into "Searching for Sasquatch".
I hear something.
Oak Ridge, Oregon is a charming city,
nestled in the foothills of the Western Cascade Mountains.
Known as the mountain bike capital of the Northwest,
Oak Ridge is surrounded
by the vast Willamette National Forest,
offering endless outdoor adventures.
With over 500 miles of trails, it's a paradise for hikers,
bikers, and nature enthusiasts.
Their city has a rich history,
originally established as a railroad boom town,
and later becoming a hub for logging.
Oak Ridge is also known for its beautiful weather
with over 300 days of sunshine annually
due to the elevation,
which keeps it above the valley fog
and below the heavy mountain snows.
The city hosts various events throughout the year,
including the Tree Planting Festival, concerts in the park,
and Sasquatch Summer Fest.
Whether you're looking to explore nature,
enjoy outdoor sports, or experience local culture,
Oak Ridge has something for everyone.
Even a possible sighting of the cryptid known as Sasquatch.
So we are now heading into an area
where there has been the Bigfoot creature spotted.
Exactly, where are we going?
Bohemian Mountain.
So this is what they were talking about earlier.
It is-Has some mines, some mine shafts,
some caves, in its vicinity.
Yeah, and it's an old ghost town.
And we've been there before,
that town I was talking about.
Yeah.
And it has an old post office and an old mine
that's no longer in use.
So we'll check out that cave there.
It's no longer in use by the.
Yes we up there.
And the living.
Yeah. It's supposed to be haunted too, so-
Wait, before I go any further, let me introduce you
to Priscilla Davidson and her husband, Steve.
They graciously brought me and my team
of Bigfoot researchers down to Oak Ridge, Oregon
to speak at the Sasquatch Summer Fest.
Their dedication and passion for the legendary Sasquatch
are truly inspiring.
Imagine a thrill as we navigate into areas
of these beautiful forests
where blood curling roars
are said to frighten hikers and campers.
This journey is more than an investigation.
It's a dive into the unknown,
where every shadow could hide the proof
we've been searching for.
Here is their story, and don't worry,
we'll soon get back to our spine tingling adventure
up to the abandoned ghost town.
My name is Priscilla.
I often forget when I'm interviewed.
See, I'm so nervous.
I think he's recording right now.
Yeah, he started recording.
No, no.
I haven't. First I wanna practice first.
So try it again.
That was perfect.
Okay, now do it.
My name is Priscilla. I own Big Quiz Brush Cutting,
and now Sasquatch Summer Fest.
Now everything is beautiful.
I've only seen one Bigfoot. Okay?
Only one.
Your turn.
That's not true.
Well, no, we had an encounter. I did not see it.
My name is Steve. I'm a retired police officer.
Now I work at a mill. I had enough of that career.
And I had one encounter back in November of 2008.
As Priscilla and Steve tell their story,
our adventure up to the ghost town continues.
And then you almost had a sighting.
Almost. Yeah.
So Steve's driving, so I'm just watching the side
of the mountain while he's driving.
And then I seen this-this was in Jasper.
It was about six years ago.
Our daughter was still in the Marines.
So that's why I'm-I think it was about six years ago.
So I see this very tall, slender jet black,
it seemed like it had short hair, kinda like a doberman.
But it was very tall and skinny.
And it was running at an angle up the side of the mountain.
And so not the traditional
big giant hairy Bigfoot you know of.
But are you sure it wasn't a doberman?
Positive, it was not a doberman.
It wasn't as scary.
But so it was so fast
and just, it moved on the side of the mountain.
Like no human could have done that.
These are all-
It was like a marathon runner on flat ground,
but on the side of the mountain.
And I'm watching it for like, probably a good 10 seconds
just trying to compute like what I'm seeing.
And I could-I wanted to say something and I just-
and then I'm like, "I think I just saw a Bigfoot."
So you were driving?
I was driving. - He was driving.
She was watching Bigfoot for 10 seconds
and saying nothing to me about it.
That is hilarious.
I love the way Priscilla and Steve banter.
They're so funny together.
Now, I don't know what I would do if I was driving
and the person next to me was watching a Bigfoot
running up the side of a mountain.
I probably would've turned around.
But what was happening is,
we were just-the part of the road we were on,
it does a little S turn
and goes underneath a railroad trestle.
And so you kind of have to navigate that.
And while that was happening,
there were several vehicles stopped
and people getting outta their cars
and looking up at the hillside that she was looking at.
But I didn't know she was looking.
So meanwhile you are like swerving around.
I'm trying not to run anybody over.
There's a deer carcass with giant vultures
taking off from it.
There was a lot of weird things happening in front of me
and I'm like, "What is going on here?"
And then she tells me,
"I've been looking at a Bigfoot for about 10 seconds."
And I'm like, "Great, could you say something?" You know.
Should I turn around, you know?
I don't know, it was like I was blocked.
I mean, I didn't know what I was seeing.
And I didn't mean to not say something.
It was just-
Even if you would've said-if you would've said something,
if you would've said something,
I would've looked and we'd have ran somebody over.
There was people getting out, looking at it too.
I don't know any of those people,
but I didn't know what they were looking at,
but they were in the road.
Usually when I'm driving I see something,
I'm like, "Look, a deer."
Like, I'm always, "Look, a Bigfoot."
What do you wanna say to your husband
now that it's all over?
If I ever see a Bigfoot, I will say,
"Hey, there's a Bigfoot."
"Look."
So what do you think about this area that you live in?
My dad, Ronnie Roseman, he is been obsessed with Bigfoot
for over 50 years, my whole life.
So he has a spot out here where he goes out into the woods
and he plays a guitar for them.
Like just him alone.
He'll go out there and sing for them
and put food out for 'em and stuff,
and he'll come back and check on the food.
And you know, the funny thing is,
he hasn't seen any of them either,
but they have surrounded him
and he's had encounters where they've, you know,
growled at him where he was afraid to go back.
Like one time it got so intense
that it took him like a year to go back.
So you hear stories from other people too?
Oh yeah. Yeah, yeah.
As I'm standing here listening to Priscilla
tell her story about her dad,
Ronald Roseman's Bigfoot encounter,
I can totally relate with being roared at.
It is terrifying.
This is why I had to go into the area
to explore the possibility of finding evidence
of these creatures.
But I didn't go alone.
Okay, so this is what we're gonna do.
Gwendolyn? - Yeah.
I will go first.
Okay.
And lead the way.
Okay.
In case the creature is behind us.
Okay. All right.
So I guess they're from behind.
It didn't take long before Gwen and I
spotted a familiar looking tree structure
that we have seen in many locations around North America.
A tree X.
Many Bigfoot researchers believe
these creatures build these structures
as a warning either to us humans or other Bigfoots,
to keep out.
I move closer 'cause I need to have a look
at the root system, to see if these trees are either growing
or if they've been placed there.
Okay. So this is jammed into the ground right here.
Really? - Yeah.
This is definitely jammed into the ground.
I can see that's jammed.
And this one,
it's growing.
Either that it is jammed in the ground and I just,
I'm too weak.
That's a pretty big tree.
It's like one and a half times
the circumference of your head.
Are you talking about that one's big, huh?
That one there.
Huh, it's big.
So is that a split on that one tree
going right down the center then?
Yeah. Yep, definitely.
Wow.
Right there, it's a split.
It's like a-
We are so lost though but, you know.
Like we've walked away from everyone.
They're way back there in the cars.
Just go into the shadows of the forest.
We probably will have better luck
that these creatures come up to us.
As we move slowly through the forest,
we kept hearing something moving alongside of us.
Suddenly from out of the darkness,
came a growl or a bark, causing us to stop in our tracks.
We heard some kind of an animal,
possibly a dog, but there shouldn't be anyone here.
We are as pretty far into the wilderness.
It was a quick little bark.
It was a yeah, quick little bark.
Oh, oh, something's moving right there.
Must always remember to look behind you.
You keep looking that way.
'Cause these creatures seem to like distract you.
Right, I see.
Make something happen in front of you
and nearly they're looking at you from behind.
Which, yeah.
I'm not sure if he caught that,
but behind us was a creature watching us.
Its eye shine, peaks out from behind a tree.
Possibly an owl or a rodent.
Whatever it is, it's about five feet off the ground, maybe.
Okay. So we have walked maybe a quarter of a mile.
I was gonna say the same.
I know our flashlights are slowly dying.
So I don't know how much further we should go,
but this is so much fun.
So much fun.
We dunno we can actually
the background.
We do not know how far that.
This area.
Good thing is, you know, I've never been lost.
Except for that time in Florida
and the other time in the Rocky Mountains.
Yeah, the-
Kentucky, I got lost.
But other than that, I don't get lost.
Harrison Hot Springs, I got lost there, yes.
Other than that, nope.
We never get lost. Ever.
Oh, there's a trail.
We found a trail.
And then suddenly we found something
that stopped us in our tracks.
Around.
What the is this?
These are spikes here, dude.
Wait, don't touch it yet.
Can I see it before you touch it?
No, it's all placed here.
That's wild.
Just like, lemme just get that too.
It looks like a hammer hand.
Hold on, I get pictures.
But that's placed there.
This is placed there.
I mean, this is like a tree knot.
Yeah.
And it's pulled out of... Out of the tree.
The fucking tree.
There is no-
What was that?
Told you there's something behind me.
Are we supposed to take these?
Like these gifts?
I don't know if this was left here as a gift
by these Bigfoot creatures,
but what if it is a warning?
What if these creatures are showing us
how powerful they are?
They can show us that they can rip it out of the tree.
I don't know for sure,
but I think we're gonna have to find out.
Chad, do you think this was left here?
I don't think they left-just left them, they might have.
There is no way a human
can pull that out of a tree.
Those are knots.
That's what a knot looks like in a tree.
Yes.
Right. Yeah.
It's like something took-
just pulled it straight outta the tree.
What in the world?
That is the coolest thing I've ever seen.
We weren't sure if these were left to us
as gifts by Bigfoot.
So outta respect, we all decided
to leave our own gifts back to them.
Obviously, I only had some Canadian money.
This is a Canadian dime.
It's worth nothing.
But to Bigfoot, this is for you.
I'm sorry that it is a Canadian dime.
I had nothing-
I had nothing else,
but I'm gonna put this right here for you.
That's for you.
And now I'll take this.
Wait, that's mine.
I will not take this. I'm holding mine.
I am gonna come back here.
Well, I wanna know where this ends out
so that Jason and I can hike back up here tomorrow.
I like how he says,
"Jason and I are going to hike up here tomorrow."
I'll stay with the tent all by myself.
I love the gifts for you.
Actually I'm not, I'm hiking up with them.
It was for you, we'd be lost forever.
Still not knowing exactly
what left those tree knots on those stumps.
Maybe they were for us, we're not sure.
It's probably put there by humans.
After about an hour or so looking around
and getting turned around,
we decided to head back the way we came.
And even though we didn't know
we were going in the exact direction of where we came from,
we were sure relieved when we spotted something familiar.
There's a headlight.
There we go.
Hey. Hi.
There's-
This area is supposed to be a big hotspot
when it comes to like, Bigfoot activity.
I know that there's been sightings and I'm like,
okay, so this spot hasn't even been marked on your map,
but I know that people have had several sightings
on the Duke Road and that wasn't even on there, so.
So where are you guys taking me today?
We're gonna take you out towards Bohemia.
It's an old mining district.
There's still active claims there.
There's a ghost town there with an abandoned mine.
Who knows how long it'll be there.
I mean, there's old structures there
that aren't getting better with time.
But the area around there, there's a lot of sightings.
A lot of people report sightings there.
And the forest is pretty medieval.
It's a little-you'll see when you get there,
it's a little bit different than it is around here.
Is there Bigfoot sightings around that area too?
There's Bigfoot sightings all around this area.
You know, I wouldn't-
Where's the hotspot?
Yeah, the hotspots are everywhere
in the Pacific Northwest, in the Cascade Mountain range.
It's just-
Hotspots seem to be in places
where there's other game animal like elk,
'cause that's where people go.
In order for a Bigfoot sighting to happen,
there has to be a person.
That's exactly what I say. I always say that.
You know, they're like,
well, there won't be any Bigfoot there.
I'm like, well, you kinda need people
to have a Bigfoot sighting, so.
The woods here are so thick.
If you walked six feet into the woods
in a fluorescent orange jumpsuit,
you'll never be seen again.
Unless you want to be.
And so everything kind of-
It's so thick here.
Everything revolves around roads, you know.
We don't know what's out there.
They say that there's no grizzlies out there,
and then-
I have a picture of a grizzly.
Yeah.
And then they don't believe it
until the forest ranger was like,
"No, I did see a grizzly," you know?
Yeah.
Well, they said this year they're reintroducing grizzlies,
which means they've been doing it for 10 years.
Yeah.
Okay. Well that's great.
So now I'm gonna push record.
We already know you were recording that.
Let's go see the mountain.
Okay.
This is awesome.
You probably locked the doors so nobody-
As we were looking around,
I was informed by Steve that only a couple miles away
was the largest forest fire in the United States.
Burning, destroying thousands of hectares of wilderness.
We must be careful and be able to judge the wind.
For now, it's blowing away from us.
We'll go around it. Go up and around.
Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you too.
If you're wondering who said that?
I have an app open on my phone called Spirit Talker.
This app is supposed to let the dead talk through it.
Look right through there.
Oh yeah.
1990 Nike shoe.
Ah, this place is amazing.
I love ghost towns.
And they're scattered all over North America.
If you ever get a chance to, you know,
go to a ghost town, do it.
There's so much history here.
I mean, hey, we've already seen that 1990 Nike shoe.
First part.
After a couple of hours of looking around
and with no evidence of legendary creatures being here,
we headed back to town.
Tomorrow, we have a Bigfoot festival to attend.
Oh my God. I'm on my way to Sasquatch Summer Fest.
I'm going to be speaking.
I have a table, this is gonna be incredible.
Oh my God. Come here.
Oh my God. It's Todd Neiss.
Todd Neiss, oh my gosh, look at this.
It's Todd Neiss.
Everyone, come. Look, it's Todd Neiss.
$200 an autograph.
And you get this, and he'll even spit in your food.
And you get a rock.
Look at this.
Look at this, it's Ron.
Hey, do you take credit?
Yeah. Yes, we do.
$200, you get a rock and a picture.
And if you don't like the picture this way,
you can actually-
Very quick, there we go.
It's invertional.
It's perfectly reversed,
it's way better-looking on this side.
about it.
Only 10 dollars.
I love Todd.
He is such a good sport, and he's a great researcher.
If you haven't heard of him, you should look him up.
Filled with food. - Yeah.
Anyway, Todd is quite famous in the Bigfoot world.
He's had some incredible encounters
with these Bigfoot features.
I think he might be half Bigfoot.
♪ Nothing short of no matter ♪
Sasquatch Summer Fest has been a great experience.
Tell me, how's your day?
Doing good, and we are talking to people
that have had encounters
in different places around Oak Ridge.
Gold miner, who had a visual sighting and yeah.
From Bigfoot Society.
So we are talking to people live,
about their encounters here, so.
I gotta meet Tobe Johnson, an audio expert.
Brett and Jill, the producers of "Flash Beauty."
Out of Florida.
So many wonderful vendors.
I even got to meet Kristi Sanders,
the Skunk Ape King himself, David Shealey,
and Bigfoot researcher Chad Datema.
And very young.
I started out when I was about 13
investigating the paranormal.
How I started was-
We rounded a corner, a long sweeping right hand turn,
and as we did that second blast site,
the one we had detonated,
maybe an hour, hour and a half before, came into view.
But what struck me was looking down there at that quarry,
I see three figures, three very big dark figures,
standing on two legs facing our convoy as we're coming down
this road across Ravi.
Took me about 1.2 seconds to realize what I looked at
it were not people at all.
They didn't have our silhouette.
They had arms that went down below their knees.
And I'm drawing the top of the lake,
and I could see all these footprints.
And even when I was looking at it,
I could see the toes in the water.
So I took the footage to First Nations people
and they said that I had found the migration path
of the Sasquatch people.
Hey, do you want to grab my camera there?
That's been filming these people for the last 20 minutes.
Oh, you guys look good. You know what?
It's gonna be like, my next documentary,
"Searching for Sasquatch and the Four People."
No sooner did I get off the stage,
I was asked to check out some fingerprints
found on the side of a truck.
The owner said he was visited by Bigfoot
that shook his truck in the night.
What's going on?
Do you mind telling Jason your story here?
He's an investigator.
This is Jason Kenzie.
How's it going?
Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you.
Good to see you too.
Good to see you again.
Okay, essentially,
well, I was watching your documentary.
About halfway through,
I heard footsteps down along the creek on the trail
that's right next to the creek.
Like the big heavy, like
and it stopped right at my tent.
I'm gonna stop there.
Before I go any deeper
into Josh's Bigfoot fingerprint story,
let's first find out a bit more about who he is.
Trust me, I'm extremely excited
to learn more about these fingerprints.
I'm Josh, Josh Vanick from Westland, Oregon.
Stay at home dad.
Used to be a animation in visual effects guy
and then mixed paint for a living.
And so I've been through a lot of places.
I grew up in South Central Alaska.
I encountered them as a child.
Encountered what?
Sasquatch.
They were like Perry men in the woods.
We didn't understand at the time.
But-
so I've always been aware of them.
But like, I try to just sort of not engage.
But recently, since we moved to Westland,
there's been like, we moved into a house
and there's a family of them in the park behind my house.
And they-I interact with them almost daily now.
But like-
When you interact with them,
what do you do exactly?
Well, the female revealed herself to me
about a year and a half ago.
And she, like, what happened was
I caught one of them plopping onto my roof
and I thought maybe it was raccoons
and I just needed to double check,
'cause I wasn't ready to deal with Bigfoot, you know?
So I popped the window up and look out, it jumps-
whatever it was, jumped up, it turned around
and it was a baby Bigfoot with like a little human face
with like his mouth open and it's just like freaked out.
His eyes are huge, but a little q-tip of a head.
I'm like, "Oh, hey little guy."
Okay.
And I look and I hear a stomp, stomp, stomp.
And I look over and there's the mom.
And she's like doing this head bob up and down.
Any audio?
Like-
Oh no.
I do have some like-
No, but did it say any sound?
It just give like a little snort,
but like.
But like, she was very quiet and very like stoic.
And then she started to turn around
and I go, "Okay, goodnight."
And she looks at me again and then she flops down.
I could just see the fence.
And what the length of the fence was probably about
the length of the back truck.
The shoulders were like right here.
Like two days later I got-
went in the backyard and I heard some rustling up in,
on one of the trees up above my cat.
And I was like, "Oh, please don't be one of those things."
I don't want it to eat my cat.
So then I start to go get my cat.
Turns out she's right next to it. She's mad.
I didn't understand, but she was cloaked.
And she gets the baby and she starts pushing over tree
and then crashing and all this stuff.
And then that night, the entire troop came onto my roof.
And they were all like moving around, just making a ruckus.
And one of 'em was trying to like pick at an exhaust bin
on top of my roof.
And I was-
So when you say on your roof, of your house?
My house.
So then I just hear the claw mark of it.
Just like.
And I hear it-
I get to the spot where I'm hearing the ticking sound
and I just hear it's big, hairy butt just like plop down.
Hear the individual like horse hairs
just like hit the rooftop.
And its just starts like really clawing at it.
And so then I take a broom and just go
Then I go to the back window
to see if I could see anything else,
and there's the big male.
Pretty sure he was about 15 feet tall,
the way I measured it.
But he was like this and he looks at me and he's like,
And I'm like freaked out and I have to do something.
So I do full poker face and I look him dead in the eye
and he is like.
And I look again, I lean in, and I put my arms like this.
And then he melts away.
And they all just.
Weren't you scared?
I was terrified.
In no way am I saying that Josh didn't have an experience
seeing these Bigfoot creatures.
But when he was telling me about hearing something
running on the roof of his house,
well, that could have been anything.
It could have been a raccoon or it could have been a possum.
It does remind me of a time
when I was investigating in Kentucky.
I thought I was looking at this big foot creature.
I was terrified.
And then-well, you know what,
why am I going to tell you about it?
Let me just show you.
Oh, I see there hasn't been very much movement out here.
Very little.
But when I was walking,
I heard something small on this side.
I was hoping for something a little bit bigger.
So we were down there and we're walking on the road
and then there was a big crack in the forest beside us.
So we stopped.
Doesn't mean it's Bigfoot, but we didn't hear anymore.
Maybe a little bit of cracking.
Then on this side of us,
we could hear cracking in the forest.
Just slightly as if something's kind of moving.
Not saying it's Bigfoot.
I am, I am. I'm saying it's-
No, you're not. No, you're not.
No, I'm not saying it's Bigfoot.
We didn't see anything, but we heard it. And yeah.
So now we're just walking back to the rest of the guys
and we have this camera person that's stalking us.
No, I came out here because he said that-
he said just a little bit to the right.
He goes, "Walk down a little while."
Because I was asking if there's trails.
Yeah.
And he said,
"There is game trails out here."
He said, but typically the creature likes
to come out about this point.
You know, maybe I'm off by, you know, 50 feet or more.
But he said it-he says it goes in level
and then it drops down into ravine
before it goes up real steep.
Ah, so that's how these creatures can hide.
Exactly.
I wanna see eye shot. That's what I wanna see.
I see something down there.
What the is that?
Where is it? On the ground?
John, I don't think it's a cat.
Yeah, I think I see.
Holy shit.
Oh, it's a possum.
That's what it is. It's a possum.
Yeah. See.
wow. That's cool.
It was only a small little possum.
But see how, you know, when you're kind of scared,
and I thought for sure there was a Bigfoot creature
in the forest looking at us.
Actually, maybe it still is.
Maybe it transformed
into a possum.
It's amazing how close they can get.
I haven't seen possums very often in the last 10 years.
So this is kind of a treat.
Yeah, we see quite a lot of 'em out here.
Yeah.
I've traveled down the west coast of the United States
to Oregon, to speak at the Sasquatch Summer Festival.
My hosts have already taken me up to a ghost town
where they used to mine gold.
And now I'm investigating a possible Bigfoot encounter
that took place the night before.
And all I could hear was like, sort of like a
and then like started milling around in the grass.
And like I could hear it like
just moving around in the grass.
And then I essentially was a little wigged out
and it started flipping rocks right next to the tent.
And I just, I was uncomfortable.
So I decided to come back to the movie, finished it.
And then after the movie got out, I went back to my truck.
And as I was sitting in my truck,
I looked across the creek
and a pair of glowing eyes, just like straight line-
Really?
Through the tree line,
like a straight line, way above the ground.
And probably for about a-like a 75 or 100 feet.
And then I thought I saw a pair of like two little eyes
still in the tree.
And I decided to zoom in with my cell phone,
and I couldn't get anything out of it.
And all of a sudden I see another pair of eyes
from the creek run up to one of the tents.
And it was about eye level with the tent.
This is right here?
This is right here.
I'm still taking-trying to take photos,
and all of a sudden the eyes like come up to that one tent
and then I can't see it.
Yep.
I still got the cell phone off and I'm just like,
okay, activity.
And so I'm just like, still got the phone out,
just hoping for something.
And the next thing I know, I hear like rustling.
And then all of a sudden,
the back side of my truck just like,
like goes down like a good-
like somebody had like jumped on it.
But then I also heard like the sound of like,
like something like cat paws or something.
Right on the roof and on the side and all that stuff.
And I couldn't find-
Now I'm not saying that Josh is lying to me.
I find his story fascinating.
But because I wasn't there to witness what happened to him,
I can only take him for his word.
I really wanna believe that this happened to him.
So the best we could do right now is to cast that one
and then try to compare maybe the middle finger
and cast that one, just the middle finger.
Because I would think that that would be the middle finger
of the left hand, like that like.
While Tobe is tending to the fingerprint,
I got pulled away quickly to go into interview an eyewitness
who just saw a Bigfoot cross the highway
just a few days ago.
I have to act fast
because nighttime will be upon us very soon.
From Oregon, born and raised.
Name's Ryan Cook and I do construction.
So I was actually driving down 58 headed south
and just left my friend Steve's house.
I had my stepdaughters with me.
And on the right side of the road,
there was actually a car in front of me.
But on the right side of the road, the car had like,
slowed down, saw exactly what I had seen,
maybe a touch more.
But I looked over and there was like a game trail
and it was really large.
What I saw, I thought was a game trail.
I actually checked it out and I took pictures of it.
But I'm driving down the road
probably going like 55, 60 miles an hour.
And I see it.
And... What did you see?
He had-so there's a guardrail.
What did you see?
It was brown fur, and he had his hands back.
And he was very, very large, like an elk size.
So he wasn't, you know,
I have never seen bear go like this, you know.
And so he's sitting there and he's crouched like this,
getting ready to actually leap, what it seemed across.
'Cause he had already crossed over the road,
grabbed the handrail and was going over.
Like he already like, jumped over the handrail,
was going over.
So I just saw a glimpse of it.
And I said, there's no way that I could ever see an animal
doing that with his hands-
with their hands behind their back.
I've never seen an elk do that or anything like that.
When did this happen?
So it probably happened about like 8:15.
Last night?
Not last night. It was the 13th.
It was the 13th
Of July? - Of this month. Yep.
So he literally just had his hand on there,
drove past, and I didn't turn around
'cause I had my stepdaughters with me, but I said,
instantly, I said, "I've never seen anything like this."
I've seen all kinds of animals, black bears, elks, deers,
different kinds of deers, whitetails, blacktails,
got mule deers, which are very large,
but he had a brownish kind of tint fur.
It wasn't, you know, like a grayish, like a mule deer.
So it would've been an elk is what I would've thought
it would've been.
But we went and inspected it that-
you know, a couple nights later,
and it's this culvert going under the actual road.
And so I have pictures of it.
The culvert would be able to fit like a cougar, right?
But it wouldn't be able to fit
like an eight foot, you know, Sasquatch.
And so the drop off coming over the side
where he was standing goes into a culvert
that goes about like at least six feet down.
So a human, an elk, anything would've just, you know,
died probably right there from breaking its leg.
It probably would like-
we didn't see any fur, anything when we went to inspect it.
Well, it's a dry creek bed
'cause it's a culvert going on the road.
So we started traveling up it
and the moss that we were seeing
was either scraped away or flat.
And it's going up like this dry creek bed
where, you know, a creek usually runs during the wet season
of, you know, a year.
And so it just, it was that quick popping over
and there was no spiderwebs.
You know, if you see spiderwebs in an area,
you usually think, okay there, you know,
has been nobody going through here.
There was no spiderweb.
So obviously something had been going through
and not worried about anything.
So before this happened,
did you believe in Sasquatch?
Yeah. Yeah.
I believe, you know, in spiritual essences.
You know, I believe in God, I believe, you know, Nessie.
I believe, you know, and UFOs,
I believe in Sasquatch, absolutely.
I wasn't a full like,
because I had never seen.
After two or three years of being,
you know, alive in Oregon, where we, you know,
see a lot of 'em, I was like,
you know, kind of like, okay, like is it actually possible?
I truly believe what I saw was a Bigfoot.
Now, I'm no expert on fingerprints,
so I can't say that this is made by a Bigfoot,
but I do know someone that is an expert on forensics.
That is Gwendolyn Guthrie.
She used to be a police officer.
So, you know fingerprints, right?
Yeah.
You wanna help them do a fingerprint?
I already screwed it up because I thought I could-
Oh, is this the dude?
Yeah.
Okay. - This was-
I am so excited.
I wanna lift that one, that one I'm trying.
Yeah, but that might be his
'cause it's so close to-
Look how big it is.
That is not.
So this one right here is Squatch,
this one might be me just-
Yeah.
It might be me, but this one for sure.
Actually no.
No?
Wait, there's a roll on that thumb.
So it's a center and the side.
So it's like a spread thumb print.
So that could potentially be yours.
'Cause it happens when you grab something
and you go to move away from it,
you roll off of it and it makes your thumbprint spread.
But that could be your thumbprint,
but I want to get this one.
Like if you look at this part of your finger
and you look at the swirls in your finger,
you can see how far out those swirls go
from the center of your finger outwards.
So if you look at these swirls in this finger,
these dermal patterns here,
Yeah.
The swirls are very, very, very wide.
It goes out really far before it starts to curve back down.
So that's not even a whole print though.
Yeah.
But you can tell how big your finger would be
based on the fact that it's only half
of the swirl pattern of the dermal ridge.
It's only half of it.
And if you look at mine, you see how small it is.
That's huge.
Wow, now this would be so cool
if it turned out that these were actual fingerprints
left behind for the legendary Bigfoot.
I'm not holding my breath though.
Gwendolyn, she knows her thing.
I mean, heck, she used to be a police officer.
I'm gonna stop here now, because I'm very excited
to go to the area that Ryan,
you know the witness that I just interviewed,
he saw a Bigfoot cross the highway just last week.
Oh my gosh.
So we're gonna turn in
and we're gonna go there tomorrow morning.
So where are we headed?
Over this way?
The airport man, we gotta get rid-
No, I'm kidding.
So we're gonna go to mile marker 42 just outta town
where somebody had a Bigfoot sighting.
We're gonna look for the fingerprints on the guardrail.
Yeah.
So I just got a email from someone
and they were talking about buying some fingerprints
that is on the backside of the rail
where these two guys driving by
saw this Bigfoot jump over the rail and down.
I'm driving down the road
probably going like 55, 60 miles an hour.
And I see it.
And-
what did you see?
He had-so there's a guard rail.
What did you see?
It was brown fur and he had his hands back
and he was very, very large like an elk size.
So you have the big guy in the very back.
So who the?
Where's he?
Me too also.
And we have Steve.
Okay. - And the little one.
That was... The little one. Yes.
That was Chad in the back.
He sounds like a little girl,
but really, he is a little girl, right Chad?
Hang on. We're letting Chad off.
When we arrived we went looking
for the fingerprints right away.
And sure enough, it didn't take long to find them.
Yeah, no so-
You're talking about nine foot creature.
So that's not a big hole.
Talking about a nine foot creature that, you know, has-
I don't think that-I think that's a bear.
Yeah, I think that would be-I think so.
That's that.
I think, what is the bear cup coming up and going,
putting his paw in there and going, "Oh, a truck is coming."
Yeah.
And then he is gonna go over.
And so where was that dirt come up from?
Just on the-just a block from there.
I don't know.
There there's two, you know.
Yeah.
But you know, I'm not a good enough tracker
to tell you that.
But that is layover, layover, layover.
There's three of 'em, one two, three.
Okay. So here's the other thing.
Why would they be putting their paw on that?
That's my problem.
Are they gonna lift up and then jump over?
Say, hi.
If we're talking about a bear?
Or anything.
Why would any animal, I mean unless like-
it would be up here, not there.
You think, unless they used that to kick over.
After determine that the fingerprints were not left behind
by a 900 pound creature,
I went looking for footprints.
And wow, was it a shock at how fast it took me to locate
what I believe were tracks left behind
by somebody with no shoes on.
That mix up.
We need a lot of.
Cold.
Probably we should get out of here
and probably mixed up later.
If you're wondering what size this track is,
it's 21 inches long and six inches across.
This was such an exciting find.
What's that?
It's getting hard.
Yeah, you can see how thick it's getting, right?
I just need some more water to put in this a little bit.
I think I-you know, we did a pretty good job.
It was a good team effort.
I don't think we're gonna put anymore on this.
We'll just gonna, hopefully,
I know he wants to build the whole thing up to the rib.
Okay. I just want... I'm like-
John wants to put the whole thing in, but it's too late now.
But have you ever seen one like that one?
No. No.
After pouring the track and waiting for it to dry,
I decided I wanted to see if there were any more footprints.
Well, I wouldn't be surprised
if there wasn't a few more down that way.
Hello, don't have to have tons of people
with it, just one piece is okay.
Okay.
Okay. I'll take a-
Yeah.
I'll take a walk down over here
and I'll go take a look.
Yeah, just you so nobody loose it up.
I ended up only walking 30 feet
along the guardrail before I found another track.
Only this time, it was smaller.
About 13 inches long and five inches across.
Nope. Stay there, don't move.
So I found another track down there.
Yeah? - Yeah.
Oops.
Okay, well... We'll do it.
Let's do. - Do it.
Let's cast it.
Yeah, one my way, one your way.
Here we go.
Thank you very much, our camera person.
Did you have fun?
Good. Because I can't pour on mine.
We found a bear print right here.
Perfect one.
Oh.
Perfect bear.
Wow. It's a big one too.
Instead of us sticking around
waiting for these tracks to harden,
we took off to do some exploring.
And when we arrived back, we had a shock of our lives.
We have to be careful and remember
that there is a wildfire burning only two miles away
from where we're investigating.
But we are continuing
to track a growing number
of wildfires across Oregon.
People in eastern Oregon now on high alert.
First to Wheeler County,
where the Lone Rock fire has officially become a mega fire
burning more than 115,000 acres of land.
It's also about 40% contained right now.
Evacuation levels in the town of Spray
have been upgraded to level three, go now.
After a couple hours of just hanging out
and enjoying the beautiful wilderness around us,
we had to get back to the casts
because we just found out some interesting news.
Okay, so now we're heading to go and dig up the footprints
because we just found out there's some other people
which are going to the same place to go
and cast footprints that I'm not sure
if these are the same footprints that they saw.
Steven thinks that this is the same footprints.
I don't think so.
I think there were footprints that were down the hill.
We weren't down the hill.
We were like just-
You think?
Damn it. They think it's the same footprints.
But our cast will be dry.
But we just gotta.
I know,
but here's the problem.
The problem is if we cast them, they're going to say
that they're the ones that thought it first, which is true.
So we will-I don't know. I don't know.
I mean-
There's nothing you can possess the beginning.
Right on,.
I just want everyone to know that when I went there,
there was nothing in the text.
The first text telling me that there were footprints.
Only fingerprints.
So when we got there and I saw them for the first time,
boom.
There they were, sitting in the sand.
Now I just got a text from Tobe
saying that they're coming down to cast footprints.
This is kind of a-we're racing to try and get to this area
so we can get the casts before they come and dig it up.
By the way, the fingerprints,
I don't know if they were really fingerprints
from a big hairy feature.
They're interesting looking, but-
anyway, I just had to document this.
I want people to know that I had no idea
there was footprints there.
Oh, I'm going 60. It's 55 here.
Okay, I'll see you guys in a bit.
On an expedition into the forests of Oregon,
Chad, Gwendolyn, Sherrie and I
were investigating possible Bigfoot fingerprints.
It's only half of it, and if you-
Left on the side of a truck.
And if you look-
Intrigued by the possibility
of Bigfoot in the area, we interviewed an eyewitness
who claimed to see a Bigfoot cross the highway
only a few days ago.
And after investigating the area of the sightings
and casting a couple prints, we found out that a couple
of investigators, people we did not know,
were headed down to the area to help us look for tracks.
Afraid of them finding the tracks that we cast,
we were in a rush to beat them to the spot.
Now this is fun.
But then again, I don't want these guys to hate me
thinking that I double crossed them.
That's what I don't want.
But they have-
Tell 'em that I still work in the police department
and that I got rid of the evidence.
We start a conspiracy theory.
We did not know that they were coming up here.
I had no idea there was footprints there.
We found the footprint.
It wasn't until we got there
and then we found footprints.
Jeremiah told me that there was fingerprints
and wanted me to go and take a look.
And then we found big footprints.
Then we got there and then we found these odd,
big giant footprints.
So we ran to town to get plaster of Paris.
Exactly. - We had no idea.
His name is Tobe.
Tobe. I'm sorry, Tobe.
But anyway, and then getting a message from Tobe
saying that there was footprints
they're gonna come and cast.
So anyway.
I wonder if they'd be better at casting than us.
Oh, maybe.
Amazing.
Well there are every prints-
They can find more prints.
Obviously there's more around there.
It's all coming up together.
It's hard too.
There we go. - It's good.
We go.
That's one. - Do I turn it over?
Or do we wait?
We'll just wait.
Definitely he's not even close to here.
So it needs-
How this look. - It's fine.
See a toe here?
Yeah. Right there, a toe.
I'm trying to get a-
I see a toe there, there and a toe there.
Put an X on it.
With all the laughter,
you can tell that we were having such a good time.
It's fine.
But that was about to change.
Oh yeah? - Yeah. The toe.
Okay, so-
Another one down there? - Now for the other one.
They're gonna find the stick.
Yeah, throw the stick.
Ah, you're a good man, Tobe.
And you too, Jeremiah.
But this is not down the hill.
I'm very curious to know where you're talking about though.
Because if it's down the hill, then it's over there
and down the hill a bit.
Oh, what happened?
Some marker?
Yes.
Was there a cast here?
Yes.
What? - Dude,
the cast is gone.
The cast is gone.
Are you kidding me?
Well this is great.
I cannot believe that someone stole this footprint.
How did they even see it? They must have been watching us.
Obviously they parked at the far end
where there's a pullover for one vehicle.
Then they walked along the guardrail and they found it.
Pulled it up.
They had no reason to go all the way to the other end
to find the second one.
They thought there was only one footprint.
So somebody must have been watching us
or it makes for a great documentary, anyhow.
I never went any further.
I'm gonna go to.
Oh my gosh, the cast is gone.
And what's funny is, why would they take that cast?
They didn't know about the other one.
Well, you could not.
Where did they park?
Down here.
They parked there? No way.
So they probably thought
this is where the fingerprints were,
'cause this looks the same.
Yeah, well that's where it was.
The fingerprints right there.
No, that's the other end.
No, right there. - This end?
This is it, right there.
Okay, so the fingerprints are right here.
They took that cast.
And they didn't know we cast one further up.
That's unbelievable.
Touche, you took the wrong print.
They took our cast?
They took it.
They took our cast.
They took it.
They took our cast.
You're kidding me, right?
No.
No. They took it.
Dude, it was surrounded by cardboard.
Okay.
They took that too,.
Listen, listen.
You were right. This is down.
Oh sorry. This is down the way.
They said it was down.
Remember that the turbo was-
They took.
They got here before.
Oh my gosh.
But they didn't-
And they missed a whole cast.
They didn't find a footprint.
You didn't have to find a footprint.
They tried right over here.
Okay, who has Tobe's number?
As unbelievable as this sounds, it even gets better.
For the next couple hours, I tried to get a hold of Tobe.
I wanted to find answers.
So after talking to Tobe and talking to Jeremiah,
they had nothing to do
with these Bigfoot tracks disappearing.
In fact, we were investigating an area
two miles away from the actual sighting
that the eyewitness gave us.
That's right.
We weren't even investigating in the right location.
Well, I couldn't focus too much longer on this situation
because Chad and I were going to spend the night alone
in the area where Priscilla's dad and Chad were roared at.
Recording this.
Okay.
If we get it done in take two, you should be happy.
Go, tell me what happened.
Okay, so we were here, Ronnie, Dwayne,
Denise, and myself.
And you were where?
We were set-We set our chairs right here on the road
up here, so they didn't tip over.
This is pretty soft ground.
And Dwayne had to run- or I mean Ronnie.
Ronnie had to run to pick up Sherri and go get us lunch.
So Ronnie left, now it's just Dwayne, Denise, and myself.
And we're sitting here.
Now my chair is here and my back is face-
It faced to this.
Dwayne is sitting in front of me,
so his eyes are faced to this.
And Denise is standing there.
She had a chair, but she was standing
and she was looking at her father.
Well, we were listening and we could hear footsteps in here,
like branches breaking.
I was-
This is during the day, right?
Yeah, this is like 11:30 in the morning.
I told them, just let's just listen.
Listen.
Then we heard it more.
And then for some reason, it just crashed through the woods.
Maybe it was because Dwayne made eye contact
and didn't realize, crashed the woods.
My back's to it, I heard.
I heard a crash.
Dwayne saw a black object
running and jumping through the woods.
So we did that- and so we just sat here,
we're calm and we're listening.
And within 15 minutes, maybe less,
I don't know, time is different
when you're out here with people.
All of a sudden we get roared at,
and this roar was immense.
And they panicked.
They were like, "Let's go, let's go."
And I'm like, "No, it's okay. We have to stay here."
Unfortunately, we had nothing recording.
It's 11:30 in the morning. I didn't expect this.
And within 12 to 15 seconds,
I would say after the first roar,
there was another roar that was even louder and closer.
Which is probably the same creature closing in.
Now they're really panicked.
And I'm feeling really on the easy,
I mean I've experienced this quite a few times,
but what happened-
What did it sound like it?
That's not exact, but that's as close to the roar.
No, no.
That sounds more like when you're sleeping and snoring.
If we come here in the morning and they're slaughtered,
then we take the cameras
and then we release our own movie and it'd be way better.
It'd be like "The Blair Bigfoot Project."
Yeah.
I used to like them.
I did. Not anymore.
Jason, I know it's a huge sacrifice,
but in the name of science, it's one we're willing to make.
Yep.
Before we decided to put up a tent,
we had a look around to see
if we can find any possible footprints.
And what do you know?
We found something that was an ominous sign.
And for me, I'm hoping that this is a sign
that we are gonna have an incredible night.
I heard somebody saying at the conference
that if you go to a spot often
and then you come back and there's an X,
it is the Bigfeet telling you that they know you're there.
And we just found one through a spot that's visited often.
And you didn't put it there?
No.
This is what Bigfoot researchers call gifting.
Hello Bigfoot creatures.
If you're around, here's a banana for you. There we go.
All right. That is for you guys, Bigfoot.
I did have strawberries for you, but I ate them all
'cause they were delicious.
I love strawberries.
Yep.
We are really gonna be doing this tonight.
I hope that we don't get killed.
Let me you're serious?
Yeah.
We're going to play right here.
We're gonna blast these calls.
Yep.
You and me, and we're staying out here in a tent
and they're all leaving us.
And we're getting picked up in the morning.
Yep.
Yep. Yes, we are.
Just kidding guys.
We're actually in our backyard of the Hilton.
Me going to the forest?
Never. Never.
No, no. Searching for Sasquatch is all shot on green screen.
We are five miles back on a road
towards almost to the top of a mountain
where all this activity has happened,
and we're about to blast calls and sit here.
And it's Jason and I alone
with the only way out is our feet.
I've heard stories of campers, someone in a tent
where the thing comes up and shakes the tent.
I have personally had something come up to my tent
and shake it so abruptly
that the top of the tent hit my head.
Like it was swaying so far back
and then it did that for 30 seconds,
not even maybe 20 seconds.
And it ran off into the forest.
Is that why you have a dent on your head?
Yes. That's why I have a dent in my head.
We can go for a walk in the woods right now.
It's about 10 o'clock in the evening now.
Hopefully we can see the stars.
We're just sitting here in the dark.
I can see.
We decided to play the sierra sounds.
These unexplained audible sounds
were captured by Ron Moorhead
in the California mountains in 1971.
There's nothing crazier
than playing possible Bigfoot talking
into the darkness of the forest
when you have no idea what they are saying.
After 45 minutes of no action,
Chad and I ventured into the forest
to see if we could coach out one of these creatures
into dancing with Chad.
I'd be too busy running.
After hiking for a few minutes, well, what do you know?
We found a large tree with a broken branch.
And after inspecting it,
we couldn't determine if it was weather-caused
or made by one of Chad's dance partners.
I'm not saying it was made by a Bigfoot creature,
it almost looks like it was made
to stop someone from going forward.
Or maybe one of these creatures was sleeping underneath it.
Jason, this is a live break, it's still alive.
But it could be weather-related.
It's obvious there's no other wind damage in this area.
There's no other wind damage.
And there's nothing that fell on this.
It's late, and finding no evidence,
we turn in for the night.
Hoping a creature of legend might come closer.
But between you and me, I hope not.
Oh, not because I'm scared, I'm bloody hungry.
I'm hoping to have that banana for breakfast.
Okay. Something is walking around out there.
Now, I haven't stuck my head up yet to look.
If you're wondering if I was scared,
he's sleeping like a baby.
I think it's probably still about
25 feet into the forest.
I wasn't.
I was worried that whatever was out there,
if it came into the tent, I would have to protect Chad.
I didn't want to hurt it with my massive strong muscles.
Okay, fine. I'm lying.
I was scared.
We have these giant windows with nothing-
no top off layer, so I could just stick my head up and look.
I'm just a little nervous.
Okay, stay tuned. I'll be back.
If it starts walking more.
I wish I had stuck my head out the tent sooner.
I may have caught a glimpse of whatever was walking around.
Daytime came soon enough.
Priscilla and Steve were going to be here soon
to pick us up.
I was so ecstatic to survive the night
and not get ripped apart by a huge,
hairy creature of legend.
Even if my nice bomber jacket
smelled like forest fire smoke,
I just knew it was gonna be great
to see some familiar faces.
Good last night.
There was no action that happened last night.
Some things I just could hear walking in the night.
Something stepped on, something that was pretty heavy.
Other than that,
that's it.
This area's beautiful though.
I mean, look at all the wild flowers.
I was hoping that we're gonna get some screens last night,
but you know,
you can't find Sasquatch in every documentary.
What I want to say.
Steve. - Yeah.
You're a great guy. Thank you.
I actually couldn't even imagine how kind
and how we're on the same wave.
Priscilla, you are a total sweetheart.
Oh, thank you.
And you did a great job in the conference.
Eva, you are the most beautiful little girl
in the world... Smartest.
And the smartest for a 7-year-old.
So, our final goodbyes.
Here we go.
All right. This is good.
Steve, I want to say, go.
Okay, go.
Okay. Is recording?
Yes.
Steve,.
Again, Steve, I wanna say thank you so much.
Stop it.
All right.
Steve,
Steve, I want to say thank you so much
for having Chad, Sherri, Gwendolyn.
Gwendolyn, is that good enough?
Here with-you know, staying with you guys.
And Priscilla did nothing.
I know she-
Yeah, you know.
Appreciate you.
Yes, thank you so much.
And Priscilla,.
Thank you so much.
I know
I know, tell me I can stay close.
Okay, let's see. Top my face, damn it.
I did.
It's on you.
This has been so amazing.
And yes, this is going into the documentary.
But this is way too much fun.
No.
I am not sure what exactly happened to the print.
I'm pretty sure that maybe it hopped away
to join up with the other foot.
Okay. Seriously, my time here has been rewarding.
I have made new friendships that I know will last forever.
And the adventure here has been so epic.
I wanna also thank all of you watching for your support
in my quest to find answers for the search of Sasquatch.
My name is Jason Kenzie. I'm out of here.
I have a new expedition in the works
and this is gonna be even more exciting.
