For 45 minutes, something tapped against a window approximately nine feet above the ground while John Bertoli lay alone inside a remote yurt near Mount Adams. John’s experiences began decades earlier in the forests surrounding Williamstown, Massachusetts. As a child, he repeatedly felt watched along the Taconic Crest Trail and heard what sounded like groups of voices near an abandoned homestead in Hopkins Memorial Forest. Later incidents included an unexplained pressure wave near Cole Avenue, a tree falling moments after he requested a sign, and three concealed presences sensed on Pine Cobble Mountain. His search eventually led him across the country to ECETI Ranch in Washington, where he lived for eight months. John shares two visual sightings, wood knocks around the Field of Dreams, heavy footsteps approaching through the darkness, a voice calling his name near his tent, and the prolonged nighttime activity outside the yurt. John also discusses telepathy, consciousness, the connections he perceives between Sasquatch and UFO activity, and the importance of approaching these experiences with respect and clear intentions.

Missing 4-1-1- before there was Missing 4-1-1-

It is a little more than that. We are looking for something that does what we believe bigfoot does, where we believe bigfoot does it, when we believe bigfoot does it. All we have to do is be wrong about what, where, or when and success becomes a result of fortunate accident rather than deliberate planning. IF they are deliberately misleading us on any of those 3 "fronts", it takes an accident, not planning, to produce positive results.

Bigfoot DNA has to be different from human DNA since we homo sapiens have a unique genetic code. As far as I know we have never found bigfoot DNA that has to be way different from human or homo sapien DNA. The biopsy dart as Norseman brought up might be the only quick way to get bigfoot's DNA unless I'm mistaken. We need the DNA experts to chime in. "Homo sapiens occupies a unique position in the history of life, representing the sole surviving species of a once diverse genus. Unlike chimpanzees, which have a close living cousin in the bonobo, or elephants, which include multiple extant species, humanity stands alone in the biological landscape. This singular status is a recent phenomenon in evolutionary terms, posing a profound question about how our species, which emerged relatively late, managed to outlast all its close relatives." internet search. Does this mean bigfoot is not a homo sapien?

I heard about such practices a long time ago, and wouldn't be at all surprised to hear they're being considered once again as the current administration continues selling/leasing federal lands. Wasn't it the movie Brazil that ends with people driving down a highway with either a strip of forest along each side of the road or billboards blocking any view but the road itself(its been decades since I saw it..) And as the movie ends the camera pulls back and up, revealing all the surrounding hillsides clear cut to the dirt? I think I might well have done the same, choosing to not be a a part of the deception, much less a part of the machine that advances such destruction of forest and habitat. I have read a number of accounts submitted by current as well as former Forest Service agents/rangers/workers over the decades of reading accounts. But realistically, you'd think that if they reported all they'd seen that there would be a whole lot more of such accounts. It would be fascinating were there found a record of all bigfoot/sasquatch reports submitted by park visitors to rangers of a given park, even unofficial, just the guys at the desk writing them down, if nothing else, for even "just" that could show actual numbers of encounters, possibly seasonal trends, maybe even give some insight to their numbers in the immediate area.

DNA always cones back as: 1) Contaminated 2) Bear, dog, bison, aardvark, or some other boringly known creature 3) or "human", and almost NEVER stated as "Homo sapien"

1) a cell phone is found out in the woods, a little off trail, which once charged reveals a series of "clearer than usual " pictures of first one then two+ sasquatch following a person, getting closer....no missing person reports for the area 2) Cliff Barackman happens upon another trackway, and casts every decent print of it until it stops midst ride 3) Patty finally comes forth and cops to the fact that it was indeed her, in a suit..... 4) one of the developers trump sells federal land to gets run off by a tribe of "fur covered people...probably liberals" so they return with greater numbers and find nothing but then really odd things start to happen all around the field camp that some describe as "like if the forest was a domestic terrorist" 5) trump declares sasquatch a "fake hoax" leaving people wondering "what he really meant by that?" 6) audio recordings will surface after the 1st of the year that contain further clearly linguistic sound patterns denoting different but related dialects spoken by voices with pitch ranges far beyond that of humans. And... 7) some so cal dude in an 80s VW vanagon camper van, along with his two cats, stop just outside of Orick CA, along the forested highway, where they're approached by a large hairy man-like creature making gestures clearly implying it was looking for a drum circle and then that it had some tasty venison if the fellow would manage a decent backbeat.......go figure

I suggest all three options are occurring.

I've been thinking about picking up either an 80s VW Westphalia Vanagon or one of those Winnebago x VW Eurovan Rialtos and going around California, Oregon, Washington, and BC/Alberta in the next few years ...do some listening, maybe play live music see if that brings anybody around the site...

I Very well put MIB and I believe you had a bigfoot sighting. This is why we don't see bigfoot. We are looking for the right thing in the wrong place. I've had this friend for over 50 years, and he has been an Alaska hunting guide and a bush pilot. Like me he is old at eighty years and has been living on an Indian reservation in northern Idaho and is now scouting for Elk every day. He is at the right place at the right time, and he told me last night that on two scouting occasions in the high timbered mountains on two occasions, he has seen a bigfoot. He is skookum and is in the right place at the right time. Skookum is an Indian word for woods wise.

Hallucination is not the correct word for what you are describing. Neither is delusion. Correct use of words is important in communication. What I was trying to get at, regarding bigfoot, is if we are all having delusions, how can they be biologically consistent delusions .. we all describe some 7-10 foot hairy somewhat human-like biped. Nobody is seeing 7 legged pink octopii in the woods. Almost nobody is reporting fairies and when they do, they don't call them bigfoot. Whatever is happening, if it is not real, it is still SHARED, something wired into every human consistently across time, culture, etc. It has to be in our biology, something so deep we all have it, exactly alike, regardless of our geographic, racial, etc history. The words we've used changed as our vocabulary, our culture, change over centuries, but the thing we are describing has not. That means something very specific.

There is another possible angle to that which goes back to what I was trying to say about "animal vs person" ... essentially self-aware and planning vs just reacting to natural conditions. That angle is willful deception .. deliberate actions meant to direct our attention somewhere they are not and at something they are not so that we are chasing what we imagine bigfoot to be rather than what bigfoot is. As long as we are looking for the wrong thing in the wrong place we're not going to be too successful finding it. And, since we are exactly not too successful finding it, I think we should consider deliberate misdirection more seriously. Just. My. Opinion. (Of course.) I don't think we should stop following whatever leads we get but I think we should consider, as we do that, whether we've been "had" yet again.

Read back a few posts about DNA. What do you think about this evidence?

The mass delusion that big government is always right is a fact that we depend on ...............remember Dr. Fauci? The Navy, Forest Service, and State Police are part of big government that we need to find truth in. It's not unreal or a hallucination but a firm reality that big government is not always right. We believe that when big government tells us that bigfoot is a mythical creature. We are supposed to agree with this premise or statement. This means big government ........ the forest service won't spend a dime on researching and writing reports about this mythical creature. How many bigfoot reports are written by senior forest service officials that you can find on the forest service's publications or in the newspaper? Big government's top wildlife biologist must believe all the eyewitnesses on BFRO are mistaken or even more insulative........ crack pots to be ridiculed. Find one BFRO report by a top forest service official or university professor that describes his or her sighting of bigfoot in all the BFRO reports. Jeff Meldrum is the exception, and the big college government tried to take him down. What would happen if forest service employees who spend 4 hours a day driving forest service roads and going to and from official duties wrote articles about bigfoot and make claims to have seen one. Chances are many have seen bigfoot. Research and find out how many bigfoot sightings are written about by forest service employees such as wildlife biologist or even your average worker. They know this is a career ender that would be bad like a hallucination as MIB puts it. However, it's real and not a hallucination or a figment of the imagination.

I agree 100% that eye-witness experience is very, very relevant. The only other evidence I see approaching eye-witness testimony, so far, are footprints (very prevalent), vocalizations and convincing images (scarce). To your other points: 1.) Some in academia are negligent, most are not, in my experience. That is unless negligent implies that more of them should be out searching for Bigfoot. 2.) I don't give the entirety of Governments enough credit to cover-up anything. Many of our elected officials (whose salaries, benefits and often misused power we pay for) obfuscate a lot but, as Abraham Lincoln once said: "you cannot fool all of the people all of the time." 3.) Delusion implies a false perception of reality. I am convinced that whatever Bigfoot witnesses are seeing, it is very real. So, I think the options you omitted include: A. (as MIB suggested) - Humans are too inept to find them. And, B. (as I have suggested and which actually falls in line with ineptitude - they are beyond our current Scientific paradigms. That is: we do not have methods in place to even understand what they are which, significantly hampers our ability to find and classify them. That is humiliating in some ways, but since the paranormal is ultimately subject to some sort of explanation; I think it's good that we are not closing our minds to the discovery process.

I agree that Bigfoot is the hide and seek champion. And I agree that if it was a normal animal it would have been found long ago. But I also don't rule out the possibility that it WAS found a long time ago.🤷🏻‍♂️ Because it is so much like us that may be the problem with the powers that be. Yah so many parallels to ufology. Ufos were swamp gas and the witnesses were drunk rednecks. And anyone that defended any of it immediately thrown into that lot. But knowing the capabilities of the military and alphabet agencies, and watching leaked Ufo footage? What else do they have pertaining to our field as well? They don't just watch the sky. The also watch our shorelines and borders too. Yah. I think the mass delusion hypothesis right now is dying in a loud grotesque way in ufology. I think it will with us as well in the future.
