How It All Started

Without going into too much detail, I will tell you how I ended up sharing my tent with famous Russian Bigfoot researcher Igor Burtsev.

If it is more detail you desire, you can readily satisfy your curiousity by watching my first ever Squatchumentary: Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival Press Pass. https://youtu.be/F930_8WBCRo

Cascade Bigfoot Blood Mystery From An Insider’s Perspective

The details of our chance second meeting and our subsequent sojourn into the Cascades near the Canadian border can be readily obtained from simply watching Cascade Bigfoot Blood Mystery.

Holding Back?

Is the reader wondering why I don’t just explain the details of our rather surrendipitous meetings?

I would simply reply my humble attempt to do so could scarce address the scope of the odds and chance that led to our shared journey into the unknown to seek answers from the unexplained.

Things You Can’t See In Cascade Bigfoot Blood Mystery

Feeling the Heat

The second and third week of June of 2021 were among the hottest of the Summer in the Eastern Washington Cascades.

Temperatures in Metaline Falls during the 2021 Bigfoot Festival reached the 100’s on one of days I was covering the festival.

Meeting Little John of the Bigfoot Forest

In short, I spent over seven days camping out in the extreme heat while capturing video, doing interviews and trying to stay alive in the intense mountain heat.

Other Chance Meetings

Thanks to Todd Neiss of the North American Primate Conservancy, I was able to meet Little John of the Bigfoot Forest, who would become a key figure in Cascade Bigfoot Blood Mystery and Cascade Bigfoot Chewelah Triangle.

In Cascade Bigfoot Chewelah Triangle, Little John will add his own experiences that fateful day.

They happened that happened the morning Igor and I found the mystery blood on the floor of our tent. Blood I could not have missed when I got out of bed and left the tent that morning.

From where did the mystery blood come?

In Cascade Bigfoot Chewelah Triangle, Little John does his best to come to a rationale explanation. But, does it hold up?

We will also see some of the setbacks we had when it came to testing the blood for DNA.

Cascade Blood Mystery II?

The question on everyone’s mind is – will there be a Cascade Blood Mystery II?

There is only one way that I can answer that question fairly.

You will find the answer at the conclusion of Cascade Bigfoot Chewelah Triangle.

There’s been a lot of speculation and anticipation about the hit new 75 minute video Squatchumentary Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival Press Pass, which has just been released on YouTube!

Bigfoot Festival Drama

To add to the drama surrounding the release of the video was the drama surrounding the Bigfoot Festival itself.

As you will see in the Squatchumentary on YouTube, the Festival was the creation of some of the leading minds in the Bigfoot field, at least in the Spokane, Washington area.

But was the festival what it seemed to be on the surface? In the first few minutes of the video, there is a sense that something is not exactly right, but what is it?

The Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival A Time For Community

Encounters USA
Group photo of the presenters and celebrities of the Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival

My participation in the Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival began rather surreptitiously one day last April. It was then that I received an inquiry of sorts from Marblemount Bigfoot Festival Organizer, Syvella Khalil.

Syvella was inquiring as to whether or not I had plans to attend the Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival.

Metaline Falls? Where is Metaline Falls?

I had never heard of Metaline Falls. I had heard of Bigfoot however, as Bigfoot is the second element in my aliens, Bigfoot and Dogman podcast.

So, naturally, I said yes.

It was my agreement to attend the festival that opened up a world heretofore unknown to me. I am talking about the world of Eastern Washington Bigfoot.

Before the festival was over I would be exposed to a list of characters and events I would not soon forget.

Festival Coordinator William Bisson Takes A Breather

There were people like festival organizer Bill Bisson, a community leader of the town of Metaline.

I would learn there is a Metaline and a Metaline Falls and that he was running for mayor of the latter.

That however, is another story.

Documentary For 2

When I left for Metaline Falls, it was my intention to film two documentaries.

But I would end up with more, a lot more than just outstanding footage and subjects.

I would find partners for a tour business I have always wanted to start.

Then, I would meet a Russian Bigfoot researcher and watch him turn a ten minute interview into an hour long discussion about everything but Bigfoot.

Encounters USA

After that, I would interview all the Bigfoot personalities from Bob Gimlin and Ken Gerhard to Igor Burtsev and Tom Sewid.

All week, I would meet wonderful new friends.

For three days and nights I would camp in one of the most beautiful areas with a swimming/fish pond.

I would learn about betrayal and what it means to “follow the chopper.”

During the festival, a heat wave hit the state. Every day the temperature climbed into the one hundreds.

In spite of it all, the Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival was a huge success.

Bigfoot fans and lovers listened to their favorite speakers and researchers.

Featured Vendors Sasquatch The Legend’s Ken & Lori Hamilton

Vendors and the local community made record profits.

The actual turnout of the festival exceeded expectations by almost two thousand.

A Time For Community

In the end, I would see what it was for a small community to come together for the sake of keeping their community alive.

It was this spirit that I captured and am turning into a real live squatchumentary in 4K called The Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival A Squatchumentary.

Baker Lake Bigfoot On the Hunt For Soggy Bottom

Encounters USA returned to Baker Lake on the hunt for Soggy Bottom. Baker Lake has been the center of Bigfoot activity for years.

Amphibious Operations

In this Encounters USA video, we are going to conduct amphibious operations to establish a relationship with any known Sasquatch in the area.

Using our Sea Eagle Paddleski with Torqeedo Electric Motor, our intention is to cross the lake to vacant campgrounds at Paradise Cove. 

Graham Crackers and Infrared

Once we establish our beachhead, we’ll begin call blasting from the Bigfoot Sounds App.

After we finished call blasting, Encounters USA will move to the wood line. Once there, we will distribute graham crackers.

We will then observe the area using our FLIR ONE IOS App. Our intention is to test the capability of the FLIR tracking a mammal in heavy vegetation.

Encounters USA Goes High Tech

Following the FLIR Exercises we will use our DJI Gimbal in its various modes to familiarize ourselves, our subscribers and our counterparts with what technology we bring to the table.

As you’ll see, the best laid plans are sometimes the next plans after the best laid one doesn’t work. With an ever changing environment at the lake, we had to be flexible.

Encounters USA hopes you will join us for one of the most amazing YouTube videos and blogs you’re ever gonna see.

A brief disclaimer about the Bigfoot Tree and the Wallace family

Since the moment I heard about this story, I have been fascinated by the story of the Lori Simmons Bigfoot Tree. 

I have been to the Bigfoot Tree where I conducted an interview with Researcher Brent Dill. We sat with our backs to the tree and listened to the sounds of two trees, grown together.

The trees were making rubbing noises as the wind sifted through its branches.

That was not the end of the story for me. According to Brent Dill, Don Wallace, Lori & Michael’s father had extensive interactions with various Sasquatch in that area.

Everyone Has The Right To Be Heard on Encounters USA

In the world of the paranormal, we are all looking for clues to solve the grandest puzzle of all. Encounters USA believes everyone has the right to be heard, unless they are proven false.

Or they don’t show up for a podcast…

The Bigfoot Tree is just one example of how some people, completely discount evidence because they don’t agree with the presenter. 

As we will see the division over the debate still smolders like a campfire made of old hickory and diesel oil.

The Lori Simmons Bigfoot Tree

If you don’t know what the Lori Simmons Bigfoot Tree is, you soon will. If you do know what the Lori Simmons Bigfoot tree is, you are well aware of the controversy surrounding it.

In my opinion, the Bigfoot Tree as I will heretofore refer to it, is the most divisive issue in the history of the Bigfoot community. Outside of whether or not the creature exists.

What the Bigfoot Tree Answers

Like the Bigfoot Tree The Topic Rubs People The Wrong Way

The people searching, researching and encountering Bigfoot have as many differences in opinion as to what the creature is as there are people.

The fact that not one single specimen has not been found doesn’t help. The Bigfoot Tree may help in providing an explanation to that and other Bigfoot brain teasers. 

The Sasquatch Live & Die Underground

If the Bigfoot Tree is for real the question of why a dead Sasquatch has never been found, if one has never been found has an answer.

The Sasquatch live and they die underground.

Of course that statement would immediately infer that a Sasquatch never dies by accident or otherwise, above ground.

Other Mysteries Solved

Obviously, if there is a Bigfoot living under the Bigfoot Tree making noises everytime Lori is around, we also know other things. 

For example, we know why we don’t see them that often. They are underground and only come out at night.

Also, the Bigfoot Tree explains why Sasquatch seems to appear and disappear. They move quickly underground when spotted.
