Searching for Bigfoot in the Northwest wilderness
Listen now
Description
Plenty of people talk about Bigfoot, but what is it like to go out searching for the famous cryptid? On this week’s episode of the Peak Northwest podcast, we talk to Samantha Swindler, videographer and features reporter for The Oregonian/OregonLive, who recently went out into the wilderness with a pair of Bigfoot hunters. Her experience took her deep into the woods of Sasquatch mythology – and deep into the literal woods as well. She came back with a few ideas about the Pacific Northwest’s most famous monster, and some information about the people who dedicate their lives to finding it. Here are some highlights from this week’s show: What is the allure of Bigfoot in the Pacific Northwest? Sam recounts her camping trip in the Washington wilderness. These Bigfoot hunters are also looking for something else: missing people. One theory about all those Bigfoot sightings in the Northwest.
