SO EP:594 Bigfoot: Guardians Of The River
In this week's episode, I share an extraordinary story from a man named Dale who experienced something truly remarkable in the North Georgia mountains during the summer of 1983. What began as an innocent fishing and camping trip for two fourteen-year-old boys turned into an encounter that would haunt them for the rest of their lives.Dale's story takes us down the Chattooga River, where he and his childhood friend Brad embarked on what should have been a straightforward seven-day journey. Armed with fishing gear, a fourteen-foot flat-bottom aluminum boat, and the confidence of youth, they set off into the wilderness, unaware of what awaited them.The tale unfolds night by night, as the boys begin experiencing strange phenomena – unusual sounds echoing through the forest, eerie silences descending without warning, and the discovery of massive, unexplainable footprints along the riverbank. These mysterious occurrences gradually escalate, from wood knocking communications in the darkness to the shocking moment when an unseen creature tears apart their steel mesh fish basket to steal their prized catfish.The heart of Dale's account centers on their direct encounters with what appear to be Sasquatch creatures – tall, powerful beings that seemed not to threaten the boys, but rather to warn them away from continuing downstream. The story raises fascinating questions: What danger lurked further downriver that even these formidable creatures feared? Why did they choose to interact with two young humans rather than simply avoiding them?Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteSupport Our SponsorsVisit Untold Radio AMBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

SO EP:593 Missing: National Park Nightmares Vol.3
In this chilling episode of National Park Nightmares, we explore two of the most unsettling disappearances in America’s wild places—stories where the line between accident and something darker blurs beyond recognition.First, we return to 1958 and the shadowy slopes of Mount Meeker in Colorado. Ten-year-old Bobby Bizup vanished from Camp St. Malo, a Catholic boys' camp near Rocky Mountain National Park. Deaf, trusting, and familiar with the camp, Bobby was last seen leaving a fishing spot alone. Despite an exhaustive search, his remains weren’t found until a year later—by a counselor who was also one of the last people to see him alive. Decades later, shocking revelations surfaced: that same counselor, Neil Hewitt, along with other clergy members from the camp, were later exposed as prolific abusers. Federal investigators are now reopening Bobby’s case, fueled by new evidence—including the discovery of Bobby’s missing skull in the possession of a Colorado family tied to the camp’s leadership. What really happened to Bobby Bizup? And why did the people meant to protect him fail him so completely?Then we move to Yosemite National Park, 1981. Fourteen-year-old Stacey Ann Arras disappears during a short walk from Sunrise High Sierra Camp. Last seen standing on a rock near camp, she simply vanished. Despite an intensive search, not a single clue was found. No tracks. No belongings. Nothing. How does a teenager disappear in plain sight on a sunny afternoon? Forty years later, we still don’t have answers.These are stories of innocence lost in America’s most beautiful—and unforgiving—places. Stories where nature’s silence speaks volumes, and where the wilderness may hide more than we can imagine.Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteSupport Our SponsorsVisit Untold Radio AMVisit HIMS.COMBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

SO EP:590 "Before Bigfoot: Native America's Forest Giants"
In this episode, we dive deep into the rich and often overlooked indigenous history of what we now call Sasquatch or Bigfoot. Drawing from centuries of oral traditions and documented encounters, we explore how Native American and First Nations peoples across North America have long maintained detailed knowledge of these forest beings. Brian shares personal experiences with these creatures while acknowledging the importance of maintaining healthy skepticism about evidence. The episode highlights the remarkable consistency in descriptions from tribes that had no contact with one another – from physical characteristics like height and hair covering to behaviors such as wood knocking and whistling communications.We journey across the continent, examining traditions from the Pacific Northwest's Coast Salish peoples (who gave us the term "Sasquatch"), the California tribes' accounts of Oh-mah, the Lakota's sacred Chiye-tanka, and many others. The narrative explores how these weren't simply folk tales but sophisticated ecological knowledge embedded with practical information about forest stewardship and proper protocols for respecting all beings.The episode also addresses the impact of colonization on these traditions, including missionary suppression and boarding schools that disrupted knowledge transmission. Despite these challenges, we learn how many tribes are now revitalizing these traditions through cultural preservation programs, educational initiatives, and even formal research partnerships that blend traditional knowledge with contemporary scientific methods.Listeners will gain insight into the diverse perspectives within indigenous communities today – from those who maintain literal belief in these beings to those who interpret the traditions metaphorically as embodiments of ecological relationships. Throughout the episode, we examine how these ancient traditions align with modern encounters, suggesting continuity of experience across cultures and time periods.Whether you're a dedicated Sasquatch researcher, interested in indigenous knowledge systems, or simply curious about one of North America's most enduring mysteries, this episode offers a respectful and comprehensive look at a subject that bridges the ancient and contemporary, the spiritual and the scientific.Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteSupport Our SponsorsVisit Untold Radio AMBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.
