2 Yukoners think they saw something like a sasquatch

WHITEHORSE, Yukon Territory - Whatever two Teslin residents saw in the early morning mist, conservation officer Dave Bakica knows it shook them up.
Marion Sheldon and Gus Jules were traveling out of town along the Alaska Highway on an all-terrain vehicle, sometime after 1 a.m. last Sunday when they passed what resembled a person standing on the side of the highway.
Thinking it was a local from their small community who might be in need of a ride, they turned around and headed back, Bakica explained in an interview Tuesday, recalling his conversation with the pair.
As the two lifelong Teslin residents and members of the Teslin Tlingit Council approached to within 20 feet, they noticed the figure was covered in hair but standing upright the entire time.
Though the northern natural light was dusky at that time of the morning, Jules told Bakica he saw what he believed to be flesh tones hidden beneath a mat of hair.
"I have no doubt they saw something and are convinced it was not a bear or anything in the ordinary," the conservation officer said.
"They are convinced this was something out of the ordinary. . . . And they are pretty shook up over it."
Bakica said Jules is an experienced hunter. He described the figure as standing about 7 feet tall, but hunched over. They could see it was not a person.
"I have no doubt in my mind that they believe what they saw was a sasquatch," Bakica said. "Whether it was or not, I do not know. Just because you can't prove something was there, does not mean it was not there."

Intereting video, due to the reactions of the observers. They believe the Sasquatch is displaying an erection in this video (some sort of dominance/threat behavior). I was thinking that perhaps it had caught a snake to eat.

While Scotland has its Loch Ness Monster, the Pacific Northwest of America has it's Bigfoot: A hairy, ape-like, biped that stands some seven to nine feet tall and weighs between 600 and 900 pounds. Bigfoot, or as it's often called in Canada, the Sasquatch, is mentioned in several native American legends. In fact, the term "Sasquatch" is Indian for "hairy giant." The first sighting of a Sasquatch by a white man apparently came in 1811 near what now is the town of Jasper, Alberta Canada and sightings continued throughout the 19th and well into the 20th century. Interest in Bigfoot began to pick up in the United States in 1958 when a bulldozer operator named Jerry Crew found enormous footprints around where he was working in Humboldt County, California. Crew made a cast of the footprint. A local newspaper ran the story of Crew and his footprint with a photo. The story was picked up by other papers and ran throughout the country. It was the picture of Crew holding the "Bigfoot" that made the name stick.
In 1967 Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin, Bigfoot buffs, announced they'd captured Bigfoot with a movie camera. They filmed a few seconds of a an ape-like creature, apparently female, moving across a clearing near Bluff Creek in northern California. While the film is not perfectly clear, the creature they filmed was definitely not a common animal. The movie shows either a real Bigfoot, or a man in a clever costume. Nobody has ever proved the film fake, though some viewers were suspicious about the unnatural stride the creature had. One scientist who viewed the film, John Napier, of the Smithsonian Institution, admitted, "I couldn't see the zipper, and I still can't."
A story with accompanying photo, ran in the Journal American newspaper in Bellevue, Washington, on November 9, 1995 about a man who claimed to have incontrovertible proof of Bigfoot's existence. The man, Cliff Crook, has spent most of his adult life in search of the legendary Bigfoot and, after more than 39 years, he claims to possess "conclusive photographic proof" of the elusive creature's existence. Crook, 55, directs Bigfoot Central, a local group devoted to the investigation of the legendary creature, also known as Sasquatch. He said he acquired the series of pictures from a Tacoma man who took them on July 11, 1995 in the Wild Creek area in the foothills of Snoqualmie National Forest. Crook said that as the man was hiking near the lagoon, he heard "heavy splashes," looked down and saw a hulking figure in the water He said the man then grabbed his camera and took several pictures of the beast as it walked away. Crook is convinced the photographs are authentic. Two photography experts who examined the snapshots were a bit more skeptical, although neither would decisively declare the photographs as fakes. Crook states simply that "It's the best photo that was ever taken of Bigfoot."
Purportedly real photos of Bigfoot abound and, since no one knows what Bigfoot "really" looks like, these photos tend to vary wildly. Some photos are obviously animals, some are simply blurry shapes that can not really be clarified. Scientists have a right to be suspicious of Bigfoot evidence. Two known hoax films exist. A controversial carcass, the "Minnesota Iceman", was thought to be a hoax, too. In addition, hoax foot prints have been made from fake wooden feet and altered boots. However, unlike the hoax Loch Ness photo, no one has ever admitted to faking a picture of Bigfoot and those who have photographed this beast (or species of beast) stand steadfastly behind the authenticity of their photos.

Thanks, Frog man.
I was looking for that photo, and couldn't find it. Although I think it looks very realistic, I had heard they believe it to be a fake. They don't have it anywhere on the BFRO which seems to be the site that takes the most scientific approach but they don't have the Redwoods footage http://www.rfthomas.clara.net/bf_redwds.html on there either.
I don't know, that would be pretty elaborate hoax .

Well of course Sasquatch is real! Why wouldn't there be a giant, furry, loping, bipedal creature wandering around in the woods somewhere? Not to mention, the entire idea is just wholly entertaining. Kind of like the idea that dolphins are really radio type transmitters for aliens. Why the heck not?

Wow! Me too! Another good alternative is the Chupacabra. I like to mail people I know the wackiest shit I can find on the internet, and act as though I fully believe in it.

I don't consider the chupacabra to be wacky though.
I believe.
You see there was this top secret US military lab down in Puerto Rico, that specialized in genetic engineering. Shortly after hurricane Gloria(?) there were reports of a strange blood sucking creature mutilating farm animals all around the Puerto Rican country side. They (and I!) believe that some form of military experiment escaped from the lab due to damage the lab suffered during the hurrricane. The evidence (which usually comes in the form of some vague story, told by a 70 year old alcoholic Pueto Rican farm hand) is irrefutable!

Sorry floop but my Sasquatch road trip will entail heading deep into the forrest of the Northwestern United States. Purpose? To find and capture the elusive Rank Stranger. I'm 6'2" 215 (oh alright 220) I'm sure I can take one down with a flying kick to the chops.
My buddy is going bear hunting(Yeah, I know) in October and I may tag along and see if I can get myself shot..Err! I mean spot a Bigfoot.

I'm going to be camping here for a couple nights in the first two weeks of July, I'll be bringing my video camera just in case.
http://www.n2.net/prey/bigfoot/articles/squamish.htm
"Here today, Guano tomorrow"
AWESOME! Another recruit.
Okay, once you get there, tell whom ever you've gone with (wife, girlfriend, family etc) to "FUCKING BEAT IT!" Raise your fist with your thumb extended with the purpose of suggesting the direction they beat it to, for effect. You have to say it like that because they will waste your valuable time with stupid questions otherwise.
Okay, the next thing you should do once you get there is find a dead animal and roll in it. Dear is best. This will disguise your human stench. Even better if you can find some wild boar dung. If so, strip down naked and rub this all over your body. Sasquatch are known to hunt boar and may pick up your scent and come looking for you. Okay, after you complete either the dead animal rolling or boar dung rubbing. I want you to find a good place to set up in the bushes. Climb in the bushes and sit there for the duration of your trip. Cover yourself with leaves and other such camoflage.
Do not pack any food!! Human food may attract unwanted animals. Bring a small camping shovel and use this to dig for grubs, earwigs, salamnders, and the like. this will be your only sustenance. In the mornings lick the dew off of the surrounding foliage for hydration. If it's particularly dry you can actually get away with drinking your own urine if necessary. It's quite tasty really. When you have to relieve yourself (now this is tricky. You don't want to chance blowing an encounter, just because you had to blow some ass) dig a small hole with your camping shovel, (not far from where you set up. Three feet max) then take care of your business there. Bury it good. If you can only dig a shallow hole don't fear. By this time your own stench will overpower all but that of your quarry, the elusive Sasquatch!
Most important of all;
KEEP THAT DAMN CAMERA ROLLING!!!
After showing up from spending seven days in the widerness alone, you can expalin your behavior to your friends and loved ones by showing them the Bigfoot family you have tagging along with you.
Hell your behavior earlier that week will be self explanatory.
Good luck Shiney!

Well, I'd have to send you my old Weebalos uniform from 1976. I was a fat little bastard back then, so it will probably fit you well except the pants will now be knickers. If you wear this throught the duration of the excursion we can then apply to th Weebalos of America to see if you qualify for a merit badge in Cryptozoology.
Don't lose my most prized medal that I received as a Cub Scout, when I entered my home made kite in a kite contest back in 1975.
It's a medal for "ugliest kite" and it's the only thing I've ever won.

Sasquatch....Do you believe?
