Nope. If I did he would have been shot and taken to a taxidermist. Unless he could talk, and argue his or her way out of it.

 

Don't shoot Nor-Cal Bigfoot, He's from my neck of the woods.

 

Nope, I have not.

 

Yep, a couple years ago. He was a temp UPS driver named Jake. Size 18 EEEE feet.

I told him, "Buddy, as long as you don't kick our freight we got no problem!"

 

Seem to be pretty common around here. Most can't seem to go to the grocery store without seeing one! Mountain lions are not scarce around here either, seems like there is a black one out of about every four seen. The wife showed me on facebook where a local guy saw a black one run across the road with half of a deer in its mouth.

I haven't seen any of either around here but then again, I don't need the attention!

 

Bigfoot? You mean these guys?

They're from the Seattle area. They get stoned and stumble around the woods after dark, leaving footprints in mud. Creates myths among the locals that spread via social media. They allegedly have connections to space lasers.

 

Dearth , that's the boogy brothers when the were touring in
70's , and 80's they were on tour with Grateful Dead . I didn't participate, I heard they could trash
some dope. This was the concert called "Take no prisoners " album.They stay in the pacific northwest , a lot I have heard. They are Olympians in the feel no pain era.
Don't stay in one place long , they will leave the light on.
Just funnin , Buck

 

The wife has large feet, does that count?

 

 

My son and I made fiberglass castings of a footprint we found near the shore of the upper Tanana River here in Alaska—I still don’t know what to think!

 

I’d be rich and hated by peta🤣🤣🤣🤣

 

They already hate everybody. We’re just missing the rich part🤣🤣

 

I usta live in the Nor-Cal Bigfoot area, Trinity and Humboldt counties.
A couple of years ago I sent Crunch some info about the "hoax" part. It was where a local Logger had carved out some big feet, then pressed the feet into the ground around the landing area.

I also heard a more reasonable explanation of our local Bigfoot one time, but hard to put into words and context here.

 

I haven’t, but if I did I wouldn’t tell a soul.

 

NO big foots but have seen and heard some things at night. That really make me wonder..

 

Probably the CFO/Wife yelling at me for buying another scope or more ammo. 😢

 

Anybody going to mention "Harry and the Hendersons"?

 

A few years back I used to watch tv shows about Bigfoot. At that time, I also watched that Ancient Aliens show. The one with the weird hair guy. Anyways one night my wife said “what if Bigfoot is aliens?”

🤨🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔hmmm

 

Could this be him?

 

Dearth ,I believe if I run into the boogy brothers, in real life , in the dark. I believe I would soil myself , in short Order, even if i have a gun. Then I kno i couldn't run very fast that in my pants. Buck

 

 

I have seen one once when I was getting some beef jerky. I didn’t dare mess with him……..😉

 

Not big foot, but some strange things come down out of the hills on pension day.

 

Just a couple miles outside Blue Ridge, Ga. on Hwy. 515 there’s a Big Foot museum.
It‘s a pretty cool place for both believers and non believers and a great place to take kids…they love it.
They have lots of displays, photos and a short movie to watch as well as all the trinkets and T-shirts.
It’s a fun place to waste an hour if your ever in the area

 

I guess anything is possible (although perhaps extremely unlikely), but I fall pretty firmly into the camp on nonbelievers. With the proliferation of things like game cams in the wild, it is hard to see how some good solid pics would not have shown up by now.

But it is still fun to speculate about.

 

I wear size 15 does that count

 

Yes, you’re getting into Sasquatch territory 😆
I bet you have a hard time finding footwear in your size.

 

I'm not a believer but a former colleague, Dr. Jeff Meldrum, showed me a number of track casts that showed skin ridges, flexion marks and toes pretty clearly. I don't see how those could be faked but I suppose there is some explanation other than Bigfoot

 

 

This post may seem OT, but it's relevant to the topic. So give it a chance.

I have a new "squat assist machine". $125 on Amazon. I'm not big on exercise machines -- other than my stationary bike, which I like a lot and use often in the Maine winter ... which is long. I even sold my real bike because I live on a network of very ... um, bike-unfriendly rural roads that are racked by frost-heave-cracks (some of which can swallow a bicycle) and no shoulders.

But in general, I'm more into weights (dumbbells, kettle bells, steel clubs, mace bells) and body weight exercises, including squats. But I have severe arthritis in my hips (one more than the other) and am likely to have hip surgery this year; verdict is still out on that. So regular squats can be ... a bit problematic.

Yet, they're good for strengthening muscles that need to be strong for hip support -- like glutes -- and quads, hamstrings, etc.

So I read some reviews and watched some videos of this machine, which is made by the same company as my stationary bike.

I love it. Took me a couple of days to learn how to use it effectively, including getting on and off of it without busting my butt.

But I'm up to 60 squats a day with it, and can feel a burn (but not hip pain) that I didn't get with regular squats.

So I decided to name it, just for fun.

I call it Sasquats.
