And now for something completely different. Here it is--my Bigfoot Documentary! Join me on this solo adventure, exploring the Patterson Gimlin film site and the forestry roads of Black Creek, California, looking for Bigfoot! Northern California's Willow Creek is the capital of the Bigfoot world, and it was a dream come true to explore this place. Anyone who follows me knows I'm an obsessed hiker and backpacker, but I'm also a Bigfoot guy. The Patterson Gimlin film still stands as the best video evidence of Sasquatch in existence. In this video, I spend two days alone looking for the legendary Bigfoot. Camping on Bluff Creek was a total dream come true. Huge thank you to Ron Morehead who allowed me to use his iconic "Sierra Sounds". All credit goes to him and his team for recording the famous Bigfoot vocalizations and chatter heard in the video, as well as the "whoops".

I found a lot of inspiration in other Bigfoot channels such as ‪@MountainBeastMysteries‬ and @smalltownmonsters. Those channels both have great Bigfoot content and documentaries. Also be sure to check out @survivormanlesstroud for his "Survivorman: Bigfoot" series. Also, be sure to check out the book "The Hoopa Project" by David Paulides, which I refer to in this film.

If you're interested in looking further into the topic of Bigfoot, I recommend watching videos from Anthropologist's Dr. Jeff Meldrum and Dr. Grover Krantz, as well as Wildlife Biologist Dr. John Bindernagle.

As always, I find massive inspiration while making my other hiking and backpacking videos from the legendary Joey Coconut and his channel "My Own Frontier" which can now be found on Patreon.

Full Disclaimer: In this video, I repetitively refer to the forestry roads as "logging roads" which is incorrect. They are not logging roads.

Awesome work Mike, certainly takes me back to our time exploring Bluff Creek a couple of years ago. Such an amazing and beautiful area, you captured the essence of the area very well. Certainly makes me want to go back! Keep up the good work. -Aleks from STM

Had the wonderful privilege of being invited to John Bindernagels home in Courtenay BC on Vancouver Island 3 times. He gave me 2 of his famous Sasquatch casts. What a gentleman he was. Greatly missed. RIP John. Enjoyed the video. Thanks for taking us along. ~Calgary

These things seem like folklore until you are camping and get woken up at 2AM and it scares the crap outta you doing the unexplainable

Usually I don't watch people walking in the woods talking about bigfoot, but this has great scenery.

I paused this video because of something you said.. "it's more fun to believe".. most truthful words I have heard watching any other bigfoot videos.. your spot on.. my belief whether right or wrong has actually turned a few friends into believers and we have fun with it sending videos and Bigfoot related gifts for birthdays and holidays but I get the sense that they are truly starting to believe like I and others..

I camped 2 nights with my 12 yr old son at Aiken Creek campground near where Bluff Creek meets the Klamath River. It was October, so the colors were changing on the Bigleaf maples, vine maples, oaks and dogwoods. We hiked up around Fish Lake and just above Bluff Creek. Our imagination carried away a couple of times, but we had two moments we still talk about: including walking into a sudden wall of “smell” just as a strange gruff barking started. As you noted, the scenery was spectacular. .

Thought you were crazy going alone in cat country until the last shot assured me you were protected. Very good video. The Sierra sounds are freaky!
