I'm a fellow Minnesotan. You're good at telling stories. Super cool that you hike out and spend some time with us! I can confirm there is definitely something creepy that stalks our woods.

[@troglodytehunter]

Love it, thanks for giving us something to look forward to every Sunday. Winter may make the logistics a bit harder but as you noted you've got options (the pop-up camper, etc), and frankly the conditions should only make the ambience better for these stories! Truly a highlight of the week for me, and I'm sure many others feel the same...thanks for all you do, Chris!!

I'm a lifetime MN resident, and woodsman. For what it's worth I strongly confirm the presence of the "weird" in the wild. I've seen and heard things that just can't be explained. I'll also say I'm sure they were followed right up to their car, and likely a while after they started driving.

[@Tom_McMurtry]

What other weird things have you experienced other than potential sasquatch?

[@leeprochazka5420]

@@Tom_McMurtry I went fishing on the nueces in south Texas. It's damned up so there's a big embankment. About 50 ft on each side. Pretty steep bank. Bare except for a few small trees. But large trees line the top of the bank. The trail cuts through the trees at the top and goes down towards the bank and opens up. So one night about 11pm I get down there. About a mile walk through the woods to get to this spot. Arms full of gear and my ice chest, I make it there and start setting up. About a minute after getting my line in the water, a loud whack crashes behind me. Scares the poop out of me. I whip around and just stare at the tree line. No sound for about 30 seconds. I turn around, and start thinking of what mundane thing it could've been. And not a minute after turning around another WHACK!. Like a log smacking a tree. Hard. This time I turned on my high beam and started cussing and yelling at the tree line. Full of bluster and threats. I stopped to listen. And then it hit every tree on the treeline going all the way down the river to as far as I could hear, getting quieter and quieter, then made its way back. Louder and louder till it was right behind me. As fast as dominoes. Just WHACK WHACKWHACKWHACKWHACK!!!!!! I left. Quickly. And without further incidence. Took my gf out there a while after that and we heard knocking again. Though not like what I heard previously.

[@wolfman515]

I grew up on the iron range and now live by Duluth. The noises in the woods have never really bothered me, but when it's dead silent that's a different story. The silence in the woods up here is much more unnerving than weird grunts and growls.

[@gregclaflin9026]

I've been up on the trails and back roads in that area on the Superior hiking trail. Those are some pretty large tracts of land with some densest forests in the lower 48 and one can easily get lost in them.. There are a lot of little no name lakes and marshes up in that area and not too many homesteads or cabins. That said, I find it hard to believe any living creature can just "glide" through a marsh. If you've ever had to slog through even a shallow one you would know that is not an easy task. My guess is it was a lone timber wolf following them, but they probably heard a moose in distress which wondered out of it's normal range and they let their imaginations run away with them and put the two events together. That lone wolf might have been stalking them out of curiosity with no intention of an attack. Sometimes they do that. You see them occasionally up there and for the most part they are indifferent to humans. I know, coming back to Duluth from Grand Marais at 6a on hwy 61, I had to wait 10 mins. while a lone male sat in the middle of the road trying to decide whether he wanted to head to the lake or back into the woods. Even the honking of my car horn didn't budge him. It was like I wasn't even there and the size of my Jeep didn't impress him at all. I didn't floor it and make him move the hard way because I'm from here and we don't do that shit or take our wildlife for granted or think of them as a nuisance.

[@judyrobinson9556]

Just the thought of those two guys having to hike back with the unknown footsteps nearby would be very intimidating. Glad they made it ok. Your location was nice and the sunset beautiful. We have lots of Canadian geese here in Wisconsin, so when they flew by, it was a very familiar sound. Another great story, Chris, with a beautiful fall backdrop. KH!

I went on a little camping trip in the Adirondack mountains. One week with the PJs, we were stationed at Plattsburgh Air Force Base, as Rescue. We were flying over the mountains one day not far from Tupper Lake, in our HUEY, and someone spotted a perfect cliff of rock, ideal for rapelling. So our mission was to go back to that spot and camp, hike and simply make it up as we went. It was fun, rough, beautiful and with far to many horse flies. But the PJs did their rapelling and I looked on in amazement, I was a mechanic, crew chief, buck Sergeant. I brought my 8mm Mauser just for security, totally unauthorized, but we were a small group, maybe only 20 of us total at the base, 2 HH-1H helicopters, and things were pretty lax. Every night, we heard thumping of some sort, sort of like someone throwing logs or boulders onto the forest floor. We never could figure it out, the PJs were mostly recently serving in Vietnam and Thailand, flying into North Vietnam to rescue downed pilots. They had no fear about these noises, but I was concerned. I could tell they were concerned, joking about Incoming etc. I am sure that we were all convinced it was a Bigfoot type of character, but nobody said much. And they knew they could somehow handle anything. This was 1973.

I've seen one in the past about 3 years ago. Starring at me through the bushes for a good 10 minutes. I played dumb and kept casting my fishing line while starring at it. Not sure what it was thinking. It was a weird and awkward experience. Been in the woods alone many times before but I now try to keep aware of my surroundings. I also don't go in the woods unless I'm with another person. Safery in numbers. Your a really good story teller. Great show!

I had friends living about 10 miles north of Lake Superior about halfway between Two Harbors and Duluth. The Sucker River ran through their property. They had some men working on a small cabin out in their woods along the river. They were also experienced woodsmen. They had an encounter one evening after dark and I remember they had heard crashing through the woods and were very shook up. I don’t remember the rest of the details, but I find your story incredible as it’s really not that far from my friends.

[@kristalann1973]

Great story from Up North…I’ve lived in Northern Minnesota my entire life…I’ve spent my whole life hiking backpacking camping and hunting our beautiful state…I can’t say I’ve seen Sasquatch…but most other large mammals we have here…darkness always makes noises seem more creepy and concerning…I’ve hiked the entirety of The Superior Hiking Trail and I will say there have been times when I’m alone on trail and I’ve had the intense feeling I’m being watched…animals for the most part don’t bother me…I understand I’m walking into their habitat and I expect them to be curious or protective depending on the situation but when the hair on the back of your neck stands up you get the goose bumps and something feels very wrong is my sign to keep moving!! Lots of Minnesota folks believe in Bigfoot…the small town of Remer claims to be The Home of Bigfoot and hosts Bigfoot Days…maybe if I’m lucky I’ll get to see the beast before my days walking in the forest are over🤞

[@LittleKitty22]

This turning round in unfamiliar areas to remember landmarks is actually recommended in wilderness survival guides, so you are doing the right thing there. I do this too when I have to go somewhere unfamiliar. It always helps me to find my way back. This is a common theme that Sasquatch just doesn't want people in the woods. I wonder why? Very interesting beers you always find! Amazing! It sure is getting dark early now, same here in the UK. By 4pm it's getting dark. In December that will be 3pm, but if it's a dark and rainy day with lots of clouds it can get dark at 1.30pm. I really don't like that at all! Keep safe, Chris, with it getting dark so early now - make sure you always look around to see what's around you, but I can see you are doing that. If you ever feel unsafe or you have a bad gut feeling - get out of there and don't worry about videos! We would rather have you be safe than encounter a bad situation!

[@steviechampagne]

probably the same reason why you wouldn’t be happy to see some stranger running around your backyard! i encountered a sasquatch in the northern cascades last summer and it was simultaneously the most terrifying and most exhilarating moment of my life

[@jimc4839]

Super important to look back and remember land marks. Even helps in big parking lots. 🙂

[@hubes96]

@Little Kitty - its not the Tree People don’t want you in the woods, they don’t want you in there area where their family is. Usually when they chase you out of somewhere there is one or more of their young is in the area. And if someone has a gun and walks in their area they especially want you on your way! They know your intent, now it did not walk in front of them and scream directly at these guys, so it seems it wasn’t worried about their intent, but wanted to make sure they went to their car ASAP! Many stories of them helping lost people back to their car. Walking with you and steer you towards your car when you get lost in the woods.

[@LittleKitty22]

@@steviechampagne Wow! That is amazing! What did he do? And what did you do, did you run away? True, I wouldn't like it either if some stranger ran around in my backyard. But when this happens - and it has happened a few times - then I don't terrify him or view him as potential supper! So far, all trespassers ran off before I could confront them, but at the most I would shout at them to shove off!

[@LittleKitty22]

@@hubes96 Ah so that's why they want people out of the way - yes that makes sense! To protect their young! That does make sense, thank you for pointing that out. I've heard such stories too, about them helping people find back to their car. And saving people in distress. But there are other stories of them eating people, especially children! The tree knocks seem to be a sign of "dinner is served" when a human is around. Why do they save some people and eat others?

I grew up in northwestern Wisconsin and married the grandson of the family that founded the resort that used to be the center of Illgen City. He had lots of stories about black bears, wolves and the other wildlife on the Shore. I have lived on the Shore for over 40 years ever since we got married. I have hiked many of the State park trails, seen plenty of deer and moose and one black bear. I haven’t seen or heard anything like what these two guys experienced but I’m also not one to discount what they believe they saw. There’s too many sightings around the world and nationwide for there not to be some validity to the Sasquatch (yeti, mowglis, etc.) stories.

[@lynnbonge7504]

It is but I don’t live there anymore. It had a center chimney with 5 fireplaces. The original fireplace crane and Dutch oven were still in the dining room. It had the very ripple-y glass in all the windows and wide pine floors throughout the house. There were Indian shutters that tucked in all the walls (to deflect arrows is my understanding) and an old smoke room on the landing of the front staircase. The chimney base was 12 foot square. There was a hidden room in the attic. It was originally built under a grant from King George (the 4th?). He decreed that no trees could be cut down that had a diameter of more than 12 inches because he wanted them for his warships. All the floors on the 1st and 2nd floors were about 12”wide but up in the attic there were boards that were almost a yard wide. 😂 I guess they respected government authority as much as we do! The town historian filled me in on this info. I found out my ancestors lived in the same town and there is a written account of them - Edward and Ichabod Robie being captured by Indians and managing to escape. I grew up in Michigan so this was a big surprise to me (my Mom was from Boston though so I had some info on other ancestors.)

The Apache Indians held out against capture on a desert outcropping In the now Guadalupe mountains wilderness area. The area remains isolated today with many unexplored caves all over the side of very steep slopes. I was camping on the wilderness side requiring a early ascent of almost 1800 feet upon moon like bleak cliff side trails that broke out into lush forest over the top. Day two involved some exploration and I got onto an overgrown trail which required hiking off trail up to a plateau to pick up my return path. I made it around noon and While fast hiking back to camp a dark figure with the mass of a double door black refrigerator crossed the trail in front of me by about 50yards and then vanished in an area with low mosquito trees on flat ground offering no cover. It literally was m😊ving so fast as to be a blur and by the time I yelled out hey bear ,it seemed to turn its head in acknowledgement and then it was gone. Later that evening, back at my primitive hammock camp ,dry lightning started striking the mountain side above me and it sprinkled for a little. A nervous 😂deer appeared as I reclined in the hammock and I had several mountain lion encounters ; making for a strange outing for sure. Remembering unusual things later, there were heavy riveted steel water tanks that were crushed and mangled laying on the ground with no obvious sign off how the destruction occurred. I believe beings exist that are beyond our ability to explain.

I had a similar experience. It was morning and i was hunting a new area. The South side of a big swamp. I parked about a half mile from the swamp. A light breeze was blowing east by North East. So I made a big loop around to the west so I could move slowly into the wind and hunt along the edge of the swamp. I hoped to find a good spot to hang a tree stand for the afternoon hunt. When I got close to the swamp I hit on a fire break that had been plowed around the edge of the swamp It went in the direction I wanted to go and it made walking easy and quiet. I hadn't gone but a short way when I came upon tracks in the wet bottom of the fire break. I was wearing rubber boots and the tracks were twice the size of my boot prints. I followed the tracks to the edge of the swamp where there was a trail. Just off the trail was a dead pine tree fallen over and learning on another tree. I could see that something had just ripped the bark off of that pine tree looking for the big white grubs that live under the bark on dead pine trees. My first thought was a black bear had done that. So I went over to the tree to have a look I expected to see the narrow deep scratches a bear makes. But the scratches weren't narrow and deep They were wide and shallow. I didn't know what to make of it. I went back to the trail and I followed the big footprints again. They didn't go far when they turned off the trail and went into the swamp. I wasn't going in there. It was very wet. My next step could have been ankle deep or waist deep. Besides that it all looks the same up in that swamp. If a fellow gets turned around he has 40 square miles of swamp to get lost in I bid the fellow with the big feet goodbye and went on up the trail a half mile or so and I found a place where game trails crossed. I watched that spot for several hours but saw nothing. I went back to camp for lunch and a nap. That afternoom I went back. The wind was the same so I made that same big loop to the west. About the time I made the turn something from downwind of me roared. I've never heard anything like it. You could hear it for a mile. I stood there five minutes listening to it. I could pinpoint where in the treeline the sound was coming from but I couldn't see anything. While I stood listening I had time to reflect on my feelings about it all. I had a high powered rifle and i made up my mind that if the thing charged me, I would defend myself as best I could. But really I didn't want to shoot it. Putting all the pieces together I realized that it was one of those very rare creatures. And he was right I was trespassing on his home territory. I figured that the best thing to do was go hunt somewhere else. He had already scared off all the game anyway with all that roaring. I never went back there.

Hi Chris. Greetings from across the pond. Another spooky story. It’s bad enough for a Sasquatch shadowing you in the midst of nowhere but for anything to do so is bad news!!

[@katyburns9758]

Dear Chris- my first time listening to you and I was spellbound! I was also low key anxious for you out there telling scary stories in a similar environment and awe of your bravery too 😀 Thank you for bringing us such atmospheric tales.x

[@gail9906]

20 secs in Chris and Im already cringing down under my blanket! Great intro. Great story 😍 I love a good fright! You tell these stories so well. Stay safe ❤️🇦🇺🦘

Hunting and fishing MN my entire life, it's the type of wilderness thats easy to get lost in. Very few visual markers. I've hunted out west in the mountains on the plains. It's much easier to navigate. I personally have heard loud howls in the superior national forest. No wolf howls like that. I've been surrounded by a pack before and I quit hunting the two harbors area because of the population boom of the wolves. By where the Dago river meets the Gooseberry.

I really enjoy your stories and even more so the backgrounds.. I recently inherited several properties in the Gold Hill, Nevada area, which from what I can tell is really close to where you were at filming this. I'm looking forward to checking out places that you filmed at, as I love hiking and exploring myself.. thanks for all the stories and the great locations, keep it up

[@JustAllinOneResource]

Thank You Chris. Liked, and Shared. EDIT: I've also added your uploads playlist to my front page so folks can access your videos easier, and easier for those who don't know about your channel. I hope it helps you out.

-> Ahhh.. MN.. Squatch Country, indeed!! Where Something Large had circled our tent at night, breaking branches, & later that night, scared a bunch of the girls using the makeshift privy, by shaking a nearby tree, on that island I was glad to leave the next morning!! We were on a Church Summer Camp canoe trip to Canada, when I was in my teens.. & Back at the dorm, Something Large had growled by the window at night, & we made sure all the windows were locked also!! Squatch, or possibly Dogman, or Werewolf?? One of "The Big 3".. Memories.. Divine Angelic Safeguarding, & Many Blessings, ALL!! 🖖🏼📖🙌🏼🙇🏻‍♀️🙏🏼🕊️👼🏻🌄

Same my hunting .! Back in 2017, I was hunting with two friends. After the hunt, we sat and had dinner as well as enjoying a wonderful night, not so cold. While we were sitting, one of the friends heard twice some walking or the sound of breaking wood while walking. Me and another friend didn't pay attention, thinking that he was afraid of everything. While we were sitting, one of the friends heard third time, some walking or the sound of breaking wood while walking - again.! When he told us again that he heard something, my friend called me... let's go to check, we took rifles and strong lamps. let's examine the field, we didn't see anything..!? We sat for half an hour and decided to go to sleep because the HUNT starts early in the morning and we need to get some sleep..! My friend said to leave the Coleman Gas lamp on low. Me and the younger man slept in my Jeep Grand Cherokee. While the third had his SUV next to us . When I lay down I looked at the stars and one I think was VEGA was at an angle (position 11 pm) we fell asleep, while I was excited because of the deer I shoot that was hanging not far from us - a nice buck..! Somewhere around 2:30 am somehow or something woke me up, I looked at the sky trough sky window of my car, again and saw that VEGA was right above us. At that moment, on my left side, I had the feeling that someone was watching me.!?? When I looked on the my left the BIG FOOT or Sasquatch was standing and looking at me lying down..! I'm a pushy guy close to me with my elbow, to see that.. But he just mumbled and continued to sleep. I grabbed my Winchester rifle in which I put 3 bullets under the Mauser. just in case.!?? When that creature saw it, it looked at me for a second and suddenly moved behind my gaze (over my head). I timidly turned around, but he was gone.! In the morning I told my older friend what happened, we looked around and saw from the twisted frozen leaf that someone had been there last night and walking around our temporary camp.!?? We thought that someone wanted to get Joking with us, but when my friend said..!?? "Would you messing - joking with somebody at that time?" Totally amazing.! We considered for a long time what it could be.?? - After a few years I realized that it could only be BIGFOOT (Sasquatch) and searched the area a bit. and two years after I found footprints in the mud, as well as later tracks in the snow, 16-18 inches long and range up to two meters long.! You can watch this video of this footprints (tracks) on mine YT channel..! When I told this to my followers, they believed me and gladly wanted me to repeat what happened that night. Ok. Greetings from Canada. 🤔🙄😏

[@Happydays77231]

Wow brilliant story!! I'm not well thinking you have to walk through the forest in the dark after that story..its like telling ghost stories in a graveyard!🙈

[@basecampchris]

Thanks Charlotte! yes, ghost stories in a graveyard!

[@jonolean7637]

Great story. I'm from the north shore. Lots of people have stories of encounters with bigfoot. Whether you believe that or not, I guess that's up to you.

[@basecampchris]

Exactly...I'm not going to make up someone's mind for them...Love the north Shore.

[@davidstillo1296]

I ran into one about 30 years ago a close encounter 8 feer away,only thing that has ever scared me in the woods..
