California - 48 in '08

California was my ninth stop squatchin' in all 48 contiguous states in 2008. I was invited to go squatchin' with Bart Cutino. Bart is a member of the BFRO , AIBR , and SRI . Also interviewed was Robert Leiterman, BFRO_California Curator.



About twenty researchers gathered at a remote location in Northern Mendocino County. The expedition was held the 1st through the 4th of May, 2008.

Several techniques were used including woodknocking and limited sound blasting. Members reported a possible trackway in the snow on a high ridge, woodknocks, whistles and a possible rock throwing.

A special thanks also to Tom Yamarone, BFRO_ California Investigator and Bobo Faye, BFRO_ California Investigator for a sing-a-long session by the campfire. Tom's website and CD's can be found at Bigfoot Songs by Tom Yamarone.

Thanks for allowing me to tag along Bart!

Washington - 48 in '08

Washington was my eighth stop squatchin' in all 48 contiguous states in 2008. I was invited to go squatchin' with Kristine Walls, BFRO_Washington Curator, David Ellis BFRO_Washington Investigator, and John Andrews, an independent researcher. John has recorded many vocalizations at this site and they can be listened to at Sasquatch Research.net



On the 12th of April, 2008 I accompanied Kristine, David and John into the woods of Western Washington.

John demonstrated his call blasting techniques using his own voice and a PA electronic megaphone. We all took turns trying out the system. John is a real expert at doing different types of calls. The sound really echoed through the mountains but we did not hear any return vocalizations.

A few woodknocks were tried but the night was unusually quiet.

This area had been partially logged in the last two years. It is unclear whether or not this has affected the resident sasquatch population.

Thanks for allowing me to tag along Kristine, David and John!
