It's called respect by keeping your word, just as he kept his word with me. Wouldn't want to share anything with you, now that I know!

Hey Look! I can do it too! Compelling huh? See what it really is.

Very cool read. Artificial Intelligence Study of Human Genome Finds Unknown Human Ancestor. https://tiny.iavian.net/r72r

I think they can see into the IR range. So IR flashes are disturbing to them. That is just a theory. I have advocated for someone having frequent interaction with BF to conduct experiments to see of they see an IR illuminator. It could be a simple as an IR beam between two trees that when interrupted makes something happen. If they avoid breaking the beam that means that they see it. It could be that like their eyes, they understand a lens on camera is seeing them. It would not take a knowledge of photography to come to that conclusion. All theory and conjecture.

I have thought about using a half silvered mirror box and simply putting a camera in it. Another thing that has been discussed is deploying a ring of game cameras so that approaching one a BF would be in sight of another. Or walking through the ring would be observable from at least one camera. With all the new hidden camera things you could just have cameras planted in the clutter around camp. I would guess that most of human gadgets are a mystery to BF. But they seem to have issues with cameras.

Heads up to Oregon people. Last night was staying at my place near Tillomook head. Heard an "Ohio" bigfoot vocalization about 1:30 in the morning. Second time I have heard one there. It woke me up, and honestly I thought it was the tsunami warning siren. The thing lasted long enough for me to get up and stand by my sliding door trying to figure out if I should head for high ground. There is no way in the world that a human can make a sound that loud and make it last that long. Takes a huge set of lungs. The RV park there as you come into Seaside reports that their guests frequently complain about the vocalizations or ask about them. The RV park used to close in the winter but now is open year around since the flooding problem on 101 has been nearly eliminated. The last one I heard was in summer so that means there is BF presence there for much of the year. Tillamook head does not seem very squatchy to me. I have not even seen deer footprints on it. But elk can be found North of there near the river. I watched a huge herd of elk day before yesterday. Probably two dozen and I think there were three bulls. I was wondering how that works having more than one bull. I didn't think the dominant one would allow others around.

IMVHO, do nothing but camp and do normal things. These are inquisitive animals but seem to be generally pretty shy and reclusive. My belief is that repetition and patterns in the human behaviour in the circumstances you've said would be key. Repetition and predictable human behaviour may just lead to an animal feeling that it is in control, and if it feels that it is in control, I think that you may just have a chance of an encounter or sighting. Forget the cameras, for whatever reason they don't work, I have no idea why but they clearly don't. And don't try to be too clever ether or tricky, because in their environment you're not and it may just be perceived if they are watching you as untrustworthy or another negative type of word that I can't think of. Predictability can lead to trust though and it's regular patterns that lead to predictability. Unfortunately the SSR doesn't have enough NW Oregon Cascades data as of right now ( we do have some however if you'd like me to share, so just shout if you do ) but if you are interested in the data from the Cascades on the other side of the Columbia, then I'm your man. Just shout Joe, good luck.

Have a friend who has a copy of this photo that was submitted to him, but can't show as he doesn't have the person's permission to do so. This person has never gotten back to him for what ever reason. I was able to see this photo on his laptop a few years ago, and what I saw was totally unlike a Bigfoot even though this thing was massive. It was taken up around the Mt Rose area outside of Reno Nevada. This thing was a tall bipedal, and had a large head that looked like a over sized wolf's head. When seeing this thing, I told myself I would not want to be anywhere near this thing, I would rather be near a Bigfoot then this thing. I would have to say that it would rip someone apart easily and have them for a meal. I wish he would just show it to the public since the person never got back to him. Here's a really great photo and nobody gets to see it. That Bigfoot researcher Bear, or what ever his name is who has been on talk shows has a photo of a similar creature and can't show as he doesn't have permission, go figure! Glad you up graded to a 22 pistol (454) from a BB gun (357). I have something in between and it feels like I have a BB gun.

Obviously nothing to consider here. I am not surprised by the responses. I would expect no less from people who are easily convinced that mythical creatures exist.
