So, the picture I posted ... yes, both stumps / log ends. The wood stays damp, thus charcoal-gray instead of white, because of the spray coming off the little rapids. Parts are covered with almost black bark which creates the appearance of spots that could be face features. Finally, the sun broken by the mixed shadow of overhead trees really adds to the appearance they are something more than they are. I did not see those "shapes" when I was taking the pictures. I only saw them when I was reviewing pictures later. They were interesting enough that I had to go back despite it being about a 5 hour round trip drive. Pareidolia is not an inherently bad thing, it's how our brains work to process images comparing the inputs from the environment to "saved keys". It's how we knew the thing behind a bush was a tiger without seeing the whole thing, we see enough to reconstruct the pattern and run for our lives. From my perspective as a computer geek, the image processing our brain does is fascinating. Unfortunately, as I age I slow down ... I can actually see the processes occurring that used to be so fast they seemed sub-instinctual. That dang tiger might get me yet. MIB

Hi everyone, looks like a good place to put the attached file. It's from John Green's Database and it is arranged in order of reported Sasquatch height. I know of no one that was able get a Sasquatch to hold still while they pulled out their trusty tape measure though Be that as it may there are various ways to get approximate heights after an encounter. A word of caution.....there are 1,780 reports LOL, so have at it! Of that number, 33 reports are in the 11-14 foot range.The creature heights are in numerical order starting from shortest to tallest. There was other height data that simply said "Large" which I did NOT include in the file. There are two reports for under 3 feet that I also did not include. The file will open in an Excel type program. Just unzip the folder and extract the file. Sorry, no pretty maps: John Green Database- Sasquatch by Height.ods

Agreed, but that plan needs to encompass a myriad of possibilities for dealing with the unexpected. After all, you're not dealing with just one entity. It's possible you could have to contend with "players" that would render the concerns about government statutes and hunting laws as insignificant after a body is taken. You must consider that it's possible the creatures are intelligent enough to defend themselves and retaliate if a troop member is taken. That's not fact, you understand. It's a possibility, even if it's not a probability. Since we have no way to know without definitive evidence or concrete proof it's prudent to, as you say, have a plan. You'd need to be able to defend yourself and the specimen for as long as is necessary. Ape Canyon, if true, is an indication of this possibility. It would be a shame to plan for anything else if you can't get the specimen out without dying.

They don't seem to concerned about having their flashlights on all the time , I noticed. Mr. Lansdale plays the General well staying in camp instead of the bush. The jawbone they found was found to be 100% human? They mentioned it in the closing credits.

I want the power to cloud women's minds.

The most frightening words in the English language: "We're from the federal government and we're here to help you".

I completely agree. I saw the episode from last year. I will watch ,but of course we know how it ends. No creature on a slab. If they exist, it will take someone like you to end the mystery.

IMO, the only thing(s) this bunch is capable of killing is time, themselves or an innocent person.
