1982 Mil Creek Bigfoot Sighting: Investigation & Anthropologist Insight

A fascinating account of a Bigfoot sighting has recently come to light, and I couldn't help but delve into the details of this captivating story. The video I came across shares a compelling narrative from the YouTube channel Thom Cantrall, titled "Bigfoot of the Blues." In 1982, Paul Freeman, a forest service Watershed Patrol Rider, reported a sighting of a large, hairy, man-like creature while on his rounds near Mil Creek in the Blues Mountains. This sighting sparked a wave of belief and support from the local community, with many people coming forward to share their own experiences and sightings of the elusive Sasquatch. Freeman's account was taken seriously by the Milton Freewater Oregon members of the Etilla County Sheriff Search and Rescue team, who investigated the scene and found evidence that supported Freeman's story. The intense odor reported by Freeman was also noted by the Forest Service investigators, adding credibility to the sighting. What's even more intriguing is that Freeman, an acknowledged skeptic on the subject, became an overnight believer after his encounter. The search and rescue team, experts in tracking, investigated the area and found no evidence to dispute Freeman's story. Snow, a member of the team, shared his conjecture that the creature weighed between 650 and 700 pounds, and that it would have been impossible for a human to make the tracks found on the roadway without the use of a helicopter or stilts. Since Freeman's sighting, others have come forward to share their beliefs and experiences regarding the phenomenon. A woman reported seeing the same creature in the same vicinity in 1968 and 1969, while another woman from Boise, Idaho, shared that her two sons had seen a Bigfoot two years prior while camping in the Sawtooth Mountains. This captivating account of Paul Freeman's sighting and the subsequent reports from other eyewitnesses adds to the intrigue and mystery surrounding the existence of Bigfoot. I encourage our readers to watch the video and share their thoughts on this fascinating story.
