Speaker 2

Now, what are your reporting? I got a screen going on here. Something just kid with my dog, something to kill your dog? My dog. We're flying through there over the tree. I don't know how it did it? Okay, damn, I'm really confused. All I saw was my dog coming over the fence and name was dead once you hit the grill. I didn't see any cars. All I saw was my dog coming over the fence. Sat, what are you reporting? We got some wonder or something crawling around

out here? Did you see what it was? It was enough out here looking them new to window out and I don't see anything. I don't want to go outside. Just fine, Hello, hit somebody out here? What went on out there? It's thought of a bit of about sixty nine?

Speaker 3

I don't know easy, I'm out there, yeah right, Oh hey, greetings Bread in Alaska.

Speaker 4

I wanted to share with you today.

Speaker 3

Happened two years ago in May, just outside the Lake Clark National Park and Preserve at a cabin. Josh and Bridget their real first names. They didn't want to share their last name.

Speaker 4

There were newlyweds.

Speaker 3

One of their relatives had given them the offer to honeymoon, get the cabin that family homes near there ready for other visitors over the season. So of course sat and Hey, trip to Alaska, remote cabin, honeymoon. Hey, why not? So they jumped on that. They were there for a week. The first two three days were just a lot of mosquitoes, a lot of clearing a small brush, things of this nature. They were basically clearing the landing, getting the small dock ready.

Just a little nittnoyd things, nothing too major. Again, they were there to enjoy themselves. On the third night, which in May, it's getting into land of the midnight suntimes, so it doesn't get overly dark in the sky, but in the tree lines, because the leads were all popping out, it's dark. They kept hearing this weird owl hoot. This owl hoot kept getting their attention. It was at a cadence of every few seconds, just as hoot over and over.

They were concerned there was an injured owl. So Josh commenced, bridget Hey, follow me out.

Speaker 4

Let's go see if we could find it.

Speaker 3

Maybe it got caught in a trapper snare or something, fishing line or something let's go check it out. The way the cabin was set up is it was approximately fifty yards back from the body of water where they were at around it was approximately another they're thirty yards circumference around the cabin. Just cleared brush as far as keeping open line at sight in case bears get close. Right, So they come down the stairs because there's only one

way in and out the front door. There's two windows, one on either side of the door, one on it would be the left hand side as you're facing the cabin, and then one in the far back just above this makeshift. He's looking out these windows that he could trying to determine where is this owl, what direction should we look. He finds his flashlight, nice bright eight hundred loomin job. He checks it. It's working just fine, grabs his forty five auto holsters. It didn't want to go out there

potentially walk into a bear, which is smart. At least he had something on his hip bridget. As soon as they step outside the door, there's a very small deck, not even quite eight feet, just a small square deck, and there's a few steps down.

Speaker 4

They get on on a deck.

Speaker 3

She immediately sensed something wasn't right, told Josh, hey, it's not sounding like an owl anymore. It's sounding like something imitating an owl. Josh stands there and listens, and he's right, that's weird. So he has this light and gun. He's I'm gonna check it out. We're in Alaska. It's our first trip to Alaska. They don't know nothing about the wildlife outside of bearers and bear warnings from those who

they went with. So he lights up and he's walking around the circumference of the cabin, just checking out the tree line. It's thick vegetation in there, all the way around this place. The mosquitoes are still biting, so he's chewing mosquitos and doing his thing with his flashlight. As he's walking, he hears something behind him. It turns around. It's Bridget followed him. She was going to stay on the porch, but she decided to follow. She kept telling

him something doesn't feel right. I feel like we're being watched.

Speaker 4

He was getting.

Speaker 3

I think your a little paranoid first time in Alaska. I think you're just overthinking it, and I think we'll be just fine. They get around to the backside, which basically right underneath that window where the makeshift kitchen is on the back side of the cabin. As they get up to that window, they hear the hoot again and it sounds like it's directly in front of them, straight out from that window, roughly thirty yards before the brush line.

So he beams and initially they saw some eye shine and it moved, so they figured, oh, those look like big eyes. Owls have big eyes, so hey, it's an owl. It moves, so they're like, oh, and then the hooting stopped. The mosquitoes are thick or whatever, okay, in their eye. They confirmed it was an owl. They go back inside. No harm, no foul, We'll check on it when it's brighter out tomorrow morning.

Speaker 4

They get inside.

Speaker 3

They're having a late dinner because land of the midnight sun, so you lose track of time. You think it's five or six and it's ten or eleven. Trust me, I do it all the time, and I live here. That's what happened with them. They lost track of time and started dinner a bit late. Bridget is in front of the sink. From what she was saying, she can't seeing movement, but she thought it was just her eyes playing tricks on her because of the light in the sky versus

the shadows the darkness in front of her. So she just chalked it up to, oh, I'm moving my head and it's making things look like they're moving right, fair enough. Josh is sitting on this little couch. He's playing solitaire with the deck at cards. They're talking about I'll ask you how much fun has been the past few days, and discussing maybe one day in the future will have

a cabin. As they're having this conversation, Bridget's staring down into the sink doing something with the meat she was preparing. She was cutting off excess bat or something, and as she's doing that, she notices what she thought was her reflection in the window, the mirrored effect. Right, she looks up and sees this thing staring at her. Literally a foot and half away on the back side of the sink is this window and this thing staring at her.

Speaker 4

She doesn't know what to make of it.

Speaker 3

She can't put what she's seeing with her eyes into her head. She can't wrap her mind around what she's exactly seeing. Because she said it was dark, gray, black nose, really big, guys, this thing had a huge head. It looked almost like a gray bait East Mountain man, because she said it looked like a big beard, big white jaw, eyes were really big. They were getting a little bit of eye shine from the light they had inside. She

dropped what she's doing. She's stunned, and she takes a few steps back and trips over this little bit of a lip. They had a piece of trim that went from the linoleum to a little bit of carpet there.

Speaker 4

She tripped over on it and flopped back, and she was in shock, looking up at the window because this thing is still make an eye contact with her. Josh, shees her fall. He jumps up and he giggles. He's like, you all right, you all right? He's not seeing what she's seeing. She was trying to get her breath, but she kept like that. Josh is like, are you having an asthma attack or something? What's going on?

Speaker 3

She points and he turns and looks just in time to see whatever she saw move out of the way of the window. He was like, what the hell was that? Was that a bear? She couldn't talk. She was in shock, right. She's trying to hold onto his clothes because he was going to the window and trying to stop him from potentially being in danger. And as he's trying to go to that window, she's sitting down. The other window was right behind him where he was sitting, So as he's

going over the window in the little makeshift kitchen. Now, let me give you a size reference. This cabin was approximately twenty foot wide twenty six feet long, a good sized cabin. The kitchen part would be the last third of this cabin. As she tripped right around the third the distance of this place right the windows immediately off to her left, and the one that she saw it in is immediately in front of her. There's a couple poles down the middle of this cabin that held up

the root in the center. As he's going forward, she grabs his clothes. It's probably just a bar. Looking and curious, she finally caught a breath and says, no, it's a monster. It's a monster. He's like a monster. We're new to Alaska. This's playing tricks on you. He's turned away from both windows. He's got the window that was behind his back over his right should and the other one over his left shoulder, and her in front of him.

Speaker 4

So he's kitty corner to both windows.

Speaker 3

And as she's trying to tell him it was legit a monster, he stopped giggling at her because he could see the terror in her eyes. Now, as this is going on, he hears the thump over his right shoulder and glances back to the window that was just behind him. When he looks back, he sees the same thing she did staring at him in the window. Now, when he made eye contact with this thing, it gave him a look like up yours kind of deal. His words, not mine, he said. He felt like he gave him a look

of up yours. Then it moved out away with the window. Immediately, he's panic stricken too, because he's what the hell is this?

Speaker 4

She's panic. She runs goes in.

Speaker 3

There's just one separate room in this place, and it was the bedroom, which was basically curfacing that rare window would be off to her right. The back right corner was basically the bedroom area with no windows in it. She darts into there. She's panicked. Is she's freaking out? Get in here, get in here, don't let it get you. He's still trying to figure out what he saw. He retreats back in there with her he finally gets himself

pulled together because they're literally in shock. They were not expecting to be dealing with something looking at them in the window. They expected to see some bears and maybe get you some photo ops with a bear or whatever. They were basically freaking out. He was shaking really hard. She was inconsolable for about an hour. They stayed in there. The only reason he went back out is they started hearing a thumping on the front porch, just this low.

It wasn't at a regular cadence. It was just every once in a while bump, and then it would stop for a little bit and then would continue again a little bit later. That drew him out of that room. When he came out of the room, he has his flashlight. They still had the lanterns and stuff going. They had led lanterns with fresh batteries in it, so they would last all night.

Speaker 4

But he came out with the flashlight. He has his forty five.

Speaker 3

He recently out of the military, so he's well aware of tactics and all that. As he comes out tactically, he's ready to do his thing. As he's looking now, there's a window on either side of this front door. He's trying to use the light see if anything's out. One window he shut it off, look out the other one, shut it off. He didn't want to be pinpointed. I guess part of his training. He didn't want to just

leave the light on and be easily seen. He didn't know for sure what they were dealing with, so he reverted back to tactical training type stuff. He goes up to the front door and he peeks out the window. He looks around, he sees nothing. He decides, all right, whatever this is, I'm going to rack a few rounds into the lake and let it know that guns live here and maybe it'll just go away.

Speaker 4

Steps out on the porch.

Speaker 3

Just as he's about to shoot, he hears this low, grumbling growl that he could feel in his face. He said that once he felt that, he literally stumbled back into the cabin and kind of sat there. The door was still open, so he kicked it shut real quick. He felt disoriented, He said. The only time he ever felt like that before was when the five hundred pound bomb went off a quarter mile away and it shook everyone so bad they lost balance and stuff like that.

He said it was similar to that that's what he equated it too. He kicked the door shut, and he's sitting there, he's trying to figure out what the hell is that, because that growl continued and he could feel it in the floor of the cabin. He said, he never felt that kind of fear. Now, this is a soldier that was in for a good number of years and did a lot of tours in the sandbox his words,

not mine. Combat bet been there, done that, been shot at, had to do the whole nine And he said he never felt the kind of fear he felt from that growl. As he got up, pulled himself together, he knew immediately whatever that was is awfully damn big. In the forty

five he had, he felt insufficient with it. He had a twelve gaate that he had brought under the bed, so he goes and grabs that, gets it loaded up, comes out, does this thing again, looking out the windows, didn't see nothing, steps out, looks around, pops a couple of rounds from.

Speaker 4

The twelve gage into the lake.

Speaker 3

Now, over the course of time of the growling, him falling in, shutting the door, and him stepping back out to shoot, he said, was probably about an hour because he had to collect himself, so he steps back inside. After shooting off in the distance, they could hear it started off at a real low but roar. It ended in a super high pitch.

Speaker 4

He said.

Speaker 3

It was almost like a dual octave scream. The screen was such that the windows, because of the lanterns going and stuff, he could see the windows doing this little vibration thing. It caught his eye because they had a little bit of a mirrored effect going with the windows, and he could see the mirrored image jiggling. But immediately they retreat back into the room, they killed one of

the lamps. They brought the other one with them. They shut the bedroom door, and they used the small dresser that was theres more like a little night stand dresser, you know, with two drawers. He slid that in front of the door, and they basically stayed held up into the corner of that bedroom until morning.

Speaker 1

And stay tuned for more sasquatch out to see. We'll be right back after these messages.

Speaker 4

He said.

Speaker 3

During that course of time between them shutting the door, putting that little wasted time barrier there in front of the door until the morning, they said they heard multiple screams from different sides of the cabin.

Speaker 4

There was clumps of something being thrown.

Speaker 3

He said it wasn't rocks because it didn't have the hard percussion of a rock knocking against the wood. He guesstimated it was probably clumps or grass or something like that, or dirt, just because of the sounds of it. Now, as he was consoling Bridget, and Bridget was telling him, I don't want you going outside. I don't want you dealing with any of this. We don't know what the

hell this is. There's obviously more than one. We can hear the screams, and he's trying to tell her, look, we literally have at least three more days before anyone gets back here, which weather depending, we don't know for sure. So wrapped her mind around that thought. She doesn't like it. He's not happy about it either. Next morning comes, they didn't sleep a wink. Once he went out and everything was clear, Bridget calmed down, en up, and she crashed out.

Now when she crashed out, she slid that same night stand in front of the door, basically essentially locking him out of the room as well, which he was okay with because she was really dealing with it. He's basically up. He makes coffee, he's doing his thing. He's trying to keep his mind off of it, but at the same time situational awareness.

Speaker 4

He keeps looking out the windows.

Speaker 3

He can't stop looking, going from window to window, going in a circle, looking out the windows because he's freaking what the hell is this shit? About four or five hours goes by. He says he sat down on the couch, calm down, and finally and had some coffee. As it was damn near cold. He ended up dozing off a little bit. He wakes up, startled with Bridget kicking his foot. Now it's middle of the day, it's bright out. They're a little more calm down. They each had a little

bit of rest. They go outside armed, of course, she was carrying his forty five. He had the twelve gage. They circled around the whole cabin looking for any sign of anything. There was tore up ground all over the place, so he couldn't make out if it was a clump of grass, dirt, or what have you. He just knew it wasn't a rock because of the sound. They look around, they don't see no tracks, so they go back inside. They calm down. Night comes, nothing happened. The next day comes,

nothing happened. Now the night before their ride is supposed to fly back in to pick them up from their honeymoon. Just as it's starting to get into dusk, they hear the al hoot again. Now when they hear the a ol hoot, this time, they shut down everything, retreat into the room. Next morning, they hear the plane fly by, and they know that that's the sign to get their stuff ready. The plane's gonna land. Get them out of there drop off where they were bringing in. They were

going to head home from their honeymoon. Once they heard the plane, they do their a little unbarricaded and they were already packed. They come out. It was about a half hour before the plane actually landed and taxied up to the little dock there. They had a little pep talk amongst each other about bringing it up to friends and family that were showing up.

Speaker 4

All they did is they opted to.

Speaker 3

Tell them beware of the al hoops and don't go out after dark. We saw something looking in the window. Ados don't know what it was, but it stared in the window at us, and they basically left it at that for fear of ridicule from friends and family. That sucks all. Grant you, nothing ultra violent happened or anything of that nature, he said, Looking back on it, it seemed more curious the whole growling thing he attributed to

a firearm. Now that's twenty twenty hind sight, I'm sure in the moment it felt a lot different for it. But I'm going to thank Josh and Bridget for sharing that with me, being patient with me getting back a hold of them. I wanted to share with you what comes from Oscar. Where this happened was along the Copper River, approximately about ten years ago. Oscar raised in the area. I grew up in the area, was back visiting family. While he was visiting, one of his aunties asked him

to collect some basically, to go collect some fireweeds. He takes off, breaks a three fifty seven pistol with him, goes hiking along the trail that was just adjacent to the river. It was actually a smaller river that immediately blows right into the Copper River. He left specifics out because his family still lives there. How activity is still going on. He doesn't want anyone rushing to the area. He's hiking along. As he's hiking along. To his left

hand side is the river. Into his right hand side is a bunch of tall grass, some fireweed, a tree line app asimately about sixty yards off, but that sixty yards off varies because ebbs and flows back and forth, closer to the river bank, further away, and so on. He's walking along, he's not all that far from whereas An and other relatives are at. He's roughly a quarter

mile away. Now. As he's going along, out of the corner of his eye, he notices brown hopping in the grass roughly about thirty forty yards off, about half the distance between him and the tree line. It caught his attention immediately. He's thinking, oh shit, there's a bear stalking me. So he pulls out the pistol and starts yelling, Hey bear, Bear, Hey bear. He noticed it still just kind of just sees brown what he assumed was for at first, hopping

just above the grass height. He was really confused because he'd never seen a bear move like that. Immediately he thought, compromise, bear, even more dangerous. This bear must be injured. Maybe he's got to trap on his paws. Why it's hopping, he was EQUI it to that. So he decides, Shit, it doesn't look too big. Let me go find out exactly what's going on with this thing. Against his better judgment, he wanted to make sure because it's so close to

his family and relatives with elders. If it was a smaller bear that was wounded and needed to be put down, he could dispatch it or attempt to with a three fifty seven and end any danger. At least that's his initial thoughts. That all changes rather quickly as he starts going towards this thing in the last direction he's seen it hopping. He realized about ten yards in, I shouldn't be going after a wounded bear with just this three point fifty seven. I should probably have a larger caliber gun.

So he stops. He retreats out of there. He's looking around, doesn't notice the brown hopping anymore, but it's really quiet. He decides, I'm going to go get my uncle's shotgun. Come back with a shotgun. Maybe my uncle can come with me. Four eyes are better than two. Find this bear, put it down, chase it off, whatever.

Speaker 4

So he goes rounds up his uncle.

Speaker 3

His uncle, we'd begrudgingly came along with understood why his nephew was asking him to come along the say the case of a bear. So his uncle has a shotgun. He has a three fifty seven. They go back to where he last saw the hopping. They start walking towards the tree line looking for sign of this thing. They saw some grass laid over. They saw what appeared to be a path going towards the tree, so they take it. They looked fresh, especially broken grass split apart, obvious trail

through there. As they're going along, they come into an area just before the tree line where it clears out a little bit and there's a little bit of a muddy patch. He's noticing the tracks or one in front of the other directly in about four and a half feet apart. They're not bear tracks, they're barefootprint tracks. And immediately he stops. His uncle bumps into him because his uncle's staring down trying to make out partial track that

he just saw. He points out the tracks and his uncle goes, ah jakaiak Harryman monster Oscar is like, come on, whatever, it's obviously a double step from a bear. Let's continue on. His uncle immediately shuts him down, says no, We're not going any further. He argues with his uncle a little bit. His uncle is an elder when his mid late sixties at this point, tells Oscar gently but firmly, we're not continuing any further. We're going to back out of here.

We're going back leave this alone. It's obviously moved away,

and let's leave it be. As they're having this discussion, they are right up almost to the tree line, so they're about sixty yards from that trail, the main trail that they were on, and where they were it was like a big half moon shaped but like I said, it ebbs and flows in distance between the tree line and the river bank, so it's like a big oreshoe half moon cup kind of shit shape in the in the street line behind them, back towards the cabin, they

hear this real sharp, piercing whistle. He said it was almost to the point of felt like his ears were gonna bleed. It was so intense, high pitched and loud, just so loud. They immediately whip around both one point and gun in that direction, trying to figure out what the hell was that. His uncle said, I told you we need to go. Let's side step over to the trail and get gone. So as they're doing so, they're still looking the direction of the sharp whistle, the direction

it came from. Now, as they're going along, they're side stepping, they're not necessarily paying attention as far as you know, off their peripherals. They're focused on the direction that they still have to go by that way on that trail. Keep that in mind as they get in just back

over to that main trail. Oscar said, there was a return sharp whistle from immediately that trail they were just following, just off behind them on their left intensity different little bit different pitch, but same intensity, the same lengths.

Speaker 4

Immediately they turn and their focus.

Speaker 3

Goes that direction. All they see is a single spruce tree shaken. The rest of the trees are dead, still, no other sound going on except this one tree just wiggling. Immediately, his uncle says, we really need to pick up our pace, but don't run. Let's go continuing back down this trail. So that tree line comes up to about within twenty twenty five yards of the trail, a little further back

the direction they came. As they're getting to that point, another sharp whistle comes from the direction of the tracks where they saw the tracks turn around, what have you. It gets their attention because it was again very loud, crisp, very intense. They both look back see a dark figure standing between two trees. This thing's pulling on to two spruce trees, just shaking them. They've seen it lift its head and make that whistle again. When it lifted its head,

he said, it almost looked like the jaw widened. From his perspective, it looked like his jaw widened out or something. Again, it could have just, you know, been an optical thing, but that's what stood out to him when he saw that. Let's out that second, wasn't They watch it do it, and immediately off to their right, right inside the trees off to the right hand side, a return whistle. The return whistle was directed at them, not the one across

the way. Immediately the focus changed again right off onto their right point and guns that direction. Uncle starts yelling, go away, we got nothing for you. You gotta leave. Not a sound, dead quiet. He said. He doesn't even remember hearing the river directly behind them. They were roughly not even ten yards off the river. As they're standing there, he said, it felt like a standoff, because they weren't moving anymore. There wasn't no sound. He said, he was

prairie dogging. As they were standing there, he's trying to collect himself. The thing that stood out the most was how dead quiet it was. His uncle took a step back, bumped into Oscar a little bit and ignulged him with his elbow and points, and when he points, Oscar sees what he's pointing at. He sees that same brown color he saw earlier, right inside the trees doing this, looking

like something hopping around right. And immediately they're both puzzled and they're trying to figure out what what do we Is that a bear because again it looked like a bear on all fours, but it wasn't shape the same.

Speaker 4

That's why they're thrown off, But it was very similar in coloration.

Speaker 3

As they're staring at it, sharp whistle comes from back over in that direction of that trail they were following. So as soon as he hears that whistle, his uncle backs up one more step, Oscar harder. It reaches back without looking and grabs a hold of Oscar's coat and starts dragging them off off to their right side. Stepping down the trail as they do. There was a little bit of a dog leg in the trail for whatever reason. Well, his uncle went to step just through. It was only grass.

There wasn't no obstacles or anything. For whatever reason, the trail was just that way. As his uncle does that, he trips and falls over. Now immediately oscar the tension is down on his uncle. His uncle was elderly. He wanted to make sure he didn't break a hip. All that kind of stuff. Helps his uncle up. In the meantime, they're hearing noises off in the distance, but he's not watching because he's trying to help his uncle. As they're

hearing these noises, he gets his uncle up. They both their attention is towards the direction of the noises, and his uncle asks him, are you hearing that? He goes, yes, it sounds like it's just right over here in the trees. Now, these trees pretty dense undergrowth. This was roughly late fall. It was pretty thick in there. They couldn't necessarily see anything in there, especially up to about six feet up

because of all the undergrowth and vegetation. It was about six foot high, and then the spruce and a couple of birch or whatever was coming out behind it. As they're looking in that direction, they can still hear the noises being made. He said it sounded like scurrying of a large animal, like a just kind of scurrying around. He said the leaves had just started falling, but not

all of them. Some were still on the trees. Now, when he was looking, his uncle kept nudging him, and he thought his uncle was just trying to get his attention to pay attention to the noise. So he's basically ignoring his uncle's little elbows. All of a sudden, his uncle whispers in his ear. Look over to the right, over to the right, So Oscar, he gets his attention. He looks over to the right. He said, what was

standing there was almost eleven foot tall. He came back and measured the tree that it was standing next to, and that's where he came up with that number eleven foot tall. He said it wasn't overly huge, and he said it was slender, slim, had a brownish orangish brown kind of color to it, but it wasn't the same color brown that they saw with the little hopping motion.

Looking at this thing, he said, It was partially silhouetted, so they didn't get any face details, except they could tell it had a nose that was flattened down right to the face. The eyes just looked like big, dark sockets. The hair, he said, was six to eight inches along the head and shoulders. It had as far as basically head down the shoulders. It basically had.

Speaker 1

No neck and stay tuned for more sasquatch out to sea, We'll be right back after these messages.

Speaker 3

He said that the way it was swaying back and forth was very intimidating, and they were transfixed on this. Right. As they're staring at this thing, Oscar gets the creeps and his attention is drawn back off to his left. When he looks over to his left, he sees a smaller one, and as he looks over at it, it ducks down right behind the brush that's roughly about six

foot tall. Here's crashing and snapping, and immediately it's a gun in that direction because it sounds like it's coming at them, but in actuality it was quartering back towards this other one off to their right. He's focusing his gun following it. It's in the grass. Now it's still doing this little hopping thing. It looked like hopping. As it got up closer to the other one, it stood up. And when it stood up, he said, it was just

under the shoulder as far as height. When that one turned around and looked back at them, had really big eyes, same type of nose. Said that it was weird around the jaw. The jaw looked extra wide, almost like it shouldn't be. He said, that really stood out. It had the grizzled brown kind of hair, like a bear or a moose. They both looking at him, and his uncle turned and cortered away back into the trees not too far from the back side of this tree line. Oscar's

well aware of the terrain. It goes in and starts going up into the hills and into the mountaines. As they're sitting there getting the grips of what's going on, his uncle said, that's not the first time I've seen these two. I saw him once before, three years prior. They leave the area. They get back to the cabin immediately. Oscar's all over his uncle. What happened when you saw them last? He said. The smaller one was about half as tall, had been doing something very similar to what

Oscar had saw with this little hopping motion. But when his uncle saw it, it was in the open. It was doing this galloping thing, half running, half galloping, doing this hop to its run.

Speaker 4

It was just going back and forth.

Speaker 3

He said. When he saw that one, initially it was doing that, and he saw the second one standing in the trees staring at him, and he left. That's why Oscar didn't want to share the exact location, he said, it's ongoing. I had given me an invitation. I can't make it down that way right now at wintertime and all this shit. It just a bit much. I will take them up on that in the near future, maybe after a couple of excursions this spring. Oscar, thanks for

being patient with me getting back to you. I appreciate your patience. I wanted to share with you today. We'll say her name is Martha. She is from a remote Allusian village. We'll just leave it at that. Because the community is so small. She had a hard time sharing it asked that I didn't share anything too pertinent. I'm going to respect that she had a hard enough time coming forward. This is a little person experience with little people. What happened to her is that she was at her

grandpa's house in this remote village. Her grandpa's house was the farthest house away from the rest of the village by about a half mile. Now, this happened to her when she was little. Family members had left to go hunting. She was left there to tend the house and do some other things. Martha right now is approximately eighty four years old, so we're going back. This I believe, she said, happened right around statehood or just before statehood. So she's

doing her thing. She'd already did the chores of the house, cleaning and everything. She was prepping food for everyone when it came back from the hut. One of the things she would do is go out to the smokehouse, retrieve salmon, dried fish, dried seal, whatever they had, bring it in, put it on the windbreak, and as she set up the table, she would bring in from out there. Now when this happened, they were gone, The hunting party was

gone longer than anticipated. They got caught by darkness and rough water, so they had to stay where they were at basically and hunk her down overnight. And she didn't know this till the next day. So she gets everything ready and she has the dry fish and seal meat and whatnot out on the windbreak as she normally would do. As she is doing her thing and anticipating everyone coming, she realized that it had gotten dark and they're probably not coming. She wanted to not leave everything out on

the wind break. She figured she'd bring it in put the dry fish in the sink. So she goes out onto the porch, and when she goes out onto the porch, she noticed the seal meat is missing. Immediately, is like she knew she had got the seal meat, had it there. It's missing. All of a sudden, she looks around make sure it didn't fall off the little It was like a little wooden table they had kept the stuff on.

She noticed it wasn't there, So she steps out off the wind break, down the little steps and she goes back over towards the smokehouse. Is basically a cash This particular cash was dug into the ground. It wasn't elevated up because they didn't have brown bears that would climb or whatever. She goes to the dugout and notices the door is kicked open a little bit, but.

Speaker 4

She's getting close. Now it's getting on in the dark.

Speaker 3

She is using the last little bit of light she can see to get into this little dugout and grabs some more seal meat to make sure, just in case they did come home late, that she would be ready for them to be able to eat. Now. When she gets up to the door and notice says it opened a little bit, she immediately backs up because she thought she heard someone talking. So she spoke out, and you pick and ask who's there, and it got quiet, so she backed away and she got really scared for a.

Speaker 4

Minute and squatted down along the tundra.

Speaker 3

The cast was up a little bit on the rise on the hill because it was dug in. She backed down and punkered down to see who was going into their smokehouse the little cash area. As she's sitting there, she notices two figures come out and scurry off very fast, she said, moved so fast it was hard to keep track of them. They ran off, went down the hill and were out of sight. She got spooked out, didn't grab any seal meat, went retreated right back into her

gampa's house. She got inside. As she was sitting there trying to figure out who of those two people.

Speaker 4

They were too small to be adults, and I know all the kids.

Speaker 3

So she's going through her mind trying to figure out as she hears the same, similar kind of talking on the porch. Once she came running inside, she didn't shut the door. She had left it open. She creeps over to the door and she's trying to listen. She said, it sounded like they were speaking you pick as well. She sat by the door listening to try to figure out recognized voices. It was just quiet enough and garbled enough. She couldn't quite make out what was being said. As

she's sitting there, she's scared. She was young, very scared, just trying to figure out what the hell's going on.

Speaker 4

As she's doing so, she's hearing a thumping sound.

Speaker 3

Don't, don't, and she's trying to figure out where it's coming from. It sounds like it's right by her. What it was actually was the window back in the kitchen behind her thumping. Someone was thumping against it. She turned around and looked, and whatever was there duck down out of the way. She just caught some motion in the window. She's who is this? So she goes over by the sink and is trying to look out the window and everything. Now, in these days they only had kerosene lanterns. They didn't

have electricity there. She had some coal oil candles, candles with animal fats. She was trying to hold up one of the candles and say, hey, don't be playing games. No response, no answer. She continues to hear the talking on the porch. She goes.

Speaker 4

She retrieves one of the handguns.

Speaker 3

They had, an old Colt thirty eight, little five shot revolver breaktop that type. She goes and gets it, basically to make a stand. She starts calling out, I have a gun. You need to leave.

Speaker 4

You're not welcome here. She hears scurrying gone. After a few moments, she takes one of the lanterns, goes out on the porch, make sure it's all clear. All the fish that she had brought up was gone. All the seal meat that she had brought was gone. She shuts the outer door, locks it, retreats back inside on one of the chairs. It was her grandpa's chair. In front of her grandpa's chair is an old spool that they used to roll out wire on.

Speaker 3

Right.

Speaker 4

This one was a real old one, so she's sitting there.

Speaker 3

She has that spool and she sets the pistol on it. She has the lantern right there. She's sitting there trying to figure out what has happened. As she's doing so, she's sitting there and she hears someone coming up the steps and then here's knocking, and it was knocking. It was a neighbor. It was a neighbor down the way. The neighbor came asking her was she messing around on their windbreak. She said, no, I'd been here. I was

trying to get food ready. I saw what I thought were kids run off with the stuff and kind of gave the neighbor the rundown of what happened. Neighbors didn't believe her at first and started chastising her about playing games. People could get shot. You know, you don't go stealing from people, and she I didn't steal nothing. She explains again, I saw these little people look like kids, and they

ran off really fast from our cash. This is what I'm dealing with, and she points out, I got my grandpa's pistol out, I got the land, you know, the lamp and everything. The neighbor sees and then starts to believe her says, okay, we'll stay here. I'm going to have my wife come sit with you until your family gets back.

Speaker 4

Neighbor leaves. It's dead quiet for a while, she said.

Speaker 3

About ten minutes or so later, she hears someone coming up the steps again. As she hears that, she assumes it's the neighbor's wife coming to sit with her. She gets up, goes opens the door with the lamp. When she opens the door with the lamp, she said there was at least three little people she could see. She said they had really round faces, really flat faces, similar to what Russ Black shared with us, a weird shaped nose.

She said the faces weren't necessarily scary, but different. She said they looked like a very dark leathery look like a buckskin type, but darker. Once she brought the lantern out onto the porch, she said, all their eyes were just pitch black. There was no white, no nothing, She said, they were just black. Once they saw the lantern, they all scurried off real fast. Again. She freaked out, shuts the doors, backs up, gets the gun. Moments later, the

neighbor comes shows back up with his wife. She's got the gun and she's yelling, don't come in, don't come in. I will I'll shoot the neighbor. She hears the neighbor say, hey, do you put the gun down. We're coming in. Don't shoot. She's all, thank goodness, someone's here. She go sets the gun down, opens the door, lets them in, and tells them what happened. And the neighbor just looks at her and goes, okay, I'm gonna go. Look, I'm gonna use

your grandpa's gun because I didn't bring mine. Grabs her grandpa's gun, goes out, spends time out there. She doesn't remember exactly how much time, but he spent time out there, comes back in, tells her and his wife get your stuff. We're all going back to our house. She was raised by the village, so to speak, so she didn't question anything. An elder okay, we'll go to your house. So she leaves a note, went to the neighbors what have you?

They leave. Once they got back to the neighbor's house, that's when the neighbor started talking about what he saw. He went out to check out the cash and he saw five of them. They were all just right in front of the cash. They had their backs to him or whatever, and he called out to them. One of them turned around and then ran off same direction she

had seen him run earlier. He was looking at the other four facing away from him, but it seemed like their figures, their shapes just melted away in essence disappeared.

Speaker 4

But it wasn't like a poof disappear.

Speaker 3

It was more like his word was melted away, just melted into the background, like they weren't there. I want to thank Martha for sharing that because she had always heard about the little people. They're mischievous, beware kids, they'll steal the kids, things of that nature. But she didn't realize just how scary it was going to be, because even in her age now, once she thinks back on it, it makes her very nervous. When I talked to her, she repetitive,

got nervous just reliving it in her mind. There was long pauses in between what she was sharing, and I had to be patient for that, you know what I mean. I want to thank her for sharing what I wanted to share with you today. Happened to Brian back in

twenty fifteen. Brian, former military, just slight background outside of suerb He jumped on a construction contract type deal where they were going to be moving a camp from a low lying basically an island in a lagoon that's prone to washing out that's very dangerous to a new camp on higher ground and also to clear a helo pad. So he hired on in June of twenty fifteen. Now, for the first month or so, everything was just picturesque a work environment was fine, had a great time, no problems,

ermine and little babies messing around by his tent. Just picturesque, beautiful content environment he set. Up to that point, he had been getting a lot at work done, had no issues, never had any weird, creepy feelings or anything like that. Come roun to mid July, approximately July eighteenth, he was dealing with an infection in his knee. So camped where

his leg was elevated in a small Nyland tent. It was to a point of elevation where his head basically was hanging outside of the tent, had a shotgun next to him, had no worries, no concern about his safety. But he goes to sleep after thickness, antibiotics for his knee, and finally getting comfortable as he was sleeping. Something woke him up about one o'clock in the morning. Coastal sea

fog had rolled in. It really just blackened everything out land of the midnight sun is true up to a certain point, but once it starts dropping off, you get darkness. Not one hundred percent darkness, but with the sea fog, it can get real dark. So he was dealing with that. He assumed it was probably a coyote or something small predatory animal just maybe sniffed him and that's what roused him.

Speaker 1

And stay tuned for more sasquatch out to sea will be right back.

Speaker 3

After these messages, he figures, I'm just gonna give a little bit of a cough, clear my throat kind of thing and run it off. He makes his cough, something very large, he guess to makes about four feet away, takes off running away. He heard the movement, but it wasn't until he heard twelve individual footsteps going away towards the trail he had cut for the new camp. Because he was still at the old camp. He was doing

the preparations and whatnot. He said, the fear didn't kick in until he felt the ground shake from the first step boom.

Speaker 4

That startled him. He was frozen in fear.

Speaker 3

He said he clearly heard the twelve steps hit the water and was gone. Once he pulled himself together, he tried to ask his coworker did you hear that? And co workers didn't hear any of it, slept right through it. So his boss makes it back to their camp the next day, brought some four wheeler parts. He had to go and fix a four wheeler up by the new camp. They hadn't quite moved over that way yet. But he goes up there and he can't shake the fear that

he was dealing with. He was constantly watching their verizon, looking around, checking the tree line constantly, couldn't let it go. Try to tell his boss about His boss said, hey, you're being paranoid. You got nothing to worry about. Just get your work done. Totally dismissed his concerns as, oh, you're just paranoid. You're just paranoid. Don't be paranoid, You're in Alaska. Basically, suck it up. So he does this thing, he deals with it. The experience happened on the eighteenth

at approximately one am or so. The following work day is with the four wheeler thing where he couldn't concentrate well. Just before the end of the month, his boss comes back to him. They had a bunch of clients that were going to be coming in because this is what this camp was for, outdoor recreation. So he was asked to go pick a bunch of blueberries.

Speaker 4

He takes a.

Speaker 3

Percolator copper can, goes to fill it up with blueberries so the clients have fresh blueberry pancakes. He jumps in the skiff, goes down to where he knows the berry patches. He parks the skiff immediately isn't feeling right. Immediately, He's not feeling good about it at all. He only had to go in so far to get to the berries. But Brian said he could feel something watching him. He said it felt like it was ten to twenty feet

away if that, but he couldn't see anything. He was trying to pick berries, and finally he just snatched one of the blueberry bushes, ripped it out of the ground, retreated back to the skiff, just took what he had. He gets back in the skiff runs the berries back. Of course, his boss was very unhappy. There is not even near enough for the clients. You might as well

eat them. Brian ate him. He felt his boss is being a jerk, not hearing him out, not being willing to listen, and so within a very short period of time, he had made an excuse to bow out and basically left that job. Now one of the things that bothers me is he doesn't camp for anything anymore. Now, this former military here not a wallflower. Experiences that happen to people can just totally take it out of them that

lose the passion for being in the woods. I know that one I don't have the passion I once did. I'll still go out in the woods, but nothing's the same. I can't get into it. I could be there, but I can't get into it like I once did. I'm just thankful that I forced myself to get back on the horse immediately and get back out after what happened with me. I understand that feeling of screw that I ain't going out in the woods have fun. There is a whole lot of people that no longer go in

the woods because of situations like this. He felt it in the ground when this scene ran off. Now again, he's well versed Alaskan, been around bears, moose. It wasn't any of those. Especially the amount of fear these things invoked almost impossible to shake, in my opinion, just in my humble opinion, once you've been startled in this way, there's no way to just shake it or pretend it

didn't happen. Brian's a perfect example of that. Unfortunately, he basically quit that job, has stayed away from the woods,

which is very unfortunate, which I understand. That's one of the reasons I had the map at the website Subartic Alaska Sasquatch dot com, so people who are in Alaska are coming to Alaska can zoom in on the map and see, oh hey, that marker is near where we're going to go, and see what happened with that person, just so they have it in their minds like that, oh, you know, this person had this happen over here, you know, a scream, whatever it may be. But the head's up.

There's still going to be a whole lot of naysayers, so there's no way around there. It's just not going to happen. Brian also has had anyone else in the Seward area that had any experiences like that to get a hold of me via the website or whatever. Brian said he'd be willing to talk to anybody from that area if they had something similar happen, because all this transpired at where he was working near Bear Glacier. A lot of little outfits, whether it be fishing, kayaking, you

name it, deep sea fishing. They have all sorts of little places out there. I'm sure Brian is not the last person to have walked away from a job. Very unfortunate. There's a lot of people that suffer in silence. I've

said it before, reach out it. It may feel silly at first, but once you get it off your chest, you feel a lot better, especially in a non judgmental place, because even when I was sharing my experience with others, I would always get that the eye roll whatever, lay off the herb, or lay off the drink, or and just garbage. I want to thank Brian for sharing.

Speaker 4

I want to thank you guys for joining me today.
