Exactly

Exactly...

A few years back, an otherwise fit and competent loop hiker and climber type tried to exit the "ptarmigan traverse" in washington by walking down a drainage eastward and trying to link up with a mapped valley bottom side trail branching from the Pacific Crest Trail. Whatever trail may have existed was gone, and he spent the better part of the day traveling about a half mile an hour and exfiltrating out to the PCT at dark. Beaver dams, swamp, 8ft devil's club, alder, nightmare. This was on the drier "east" side of the cascade divide.

Folks who've been dumb enough to shoot something on the far side of such a creek bottom, or want to climb a peak in the neighborhood, spend as little time as possible in these places, crossing the creeks at right angles and climbing to open forest or treeline.

I'm not sure anyone who's not been there, can comprehend just how thick/impenetrable these places are. And they are everywhere. Now project that northward along the BC coast range. Limitless, untouched and unseen country.

The historical incentive to explore these places was gold prospecting, and it's likely that a lot of these creeks were walked on nearly their entire length. It's not as if there's a lack of "stories" about bigfoot from that time period.

Is that the guy Flave delivered beer to?

Nah, I'm a naturalist.

I just pee on scheidt to leave my mark, like the dog I am

"Your wife is a bigfoot Gus. You shaved the bitch down and taught her to speak. WTF does goonie goo goo mean?

If there is no Easter Bunny then where do all of those colored plastic eggs come from?

As to Bigfoots existence, The only plausible explantation I can remotely accept is they are aliens who visit occasionally and come and go at their leisure. That would explain the lack of dead bodies and other evidence that is lacking.
Remember, just because they look ape like doesn't mean they could not of evolved beyond us.

I don't think so. I live in the Sierras and have spent loads of time all over the area and I doubt very much there are parts of here that no White man has touched. If that were the case we wouldn't be arguing over reintroduction of bears and wolves and lions because they'd never have been hunted out.

And as far as this particular Bigfoot, it was in the backyard of these guys so I expect it was one of them. They dress up in Bigfoot costumes at RV shows so they probably have a closet full of them.

This is a good thread though. It has opened my eyes to how dear Bigfoot is in the hearts of many users here, what with the outpouring of emotion and the like. Really deeply thought out heartfelt arguments for their existence.

Maybe, way back last Sobertober.

But that video is far too revealing and emotional for the shallow, superficial posters here to understand.

Rooster,
Fair enough, friend.
But the line you highlighted was my response directed at an earlier post in this thread roughly stating that 'there are unlimited tracts of the PNW that no person of European decent has ever visited.'

Anyway. I've found skeletons of grizzly and moose (WY) but never a Sassy. That dead cat pic was something else too.
Carry on...

Bingo!!

For the record Santa Claus is real. He drives a late 90's Chevy and I've got photographic proof.

shovels snow in shorts too

Was kidding, of course. Hell, there aren't any trees up there anyway, as you know!

Gotcha.
