A fascinating video recently caught my eye on YouTube, and I knew I had to share it with the Squatchable community. The video, posted by the channel Thom Cantrall, delves into the legend of Chief Bigfoot, a figure from Southwest Idaho folklore.
The video explores the various beliefs surrounding this enigmatic creature, from it being a part-white, part-Indian renegade to it being a simple legend or myth. The channel's host, Thom, shares his own experiences and research on the subject, as well as the findings of others in the field.
One particularly intriguing part of the video is the story of Bill Gulick, a Western author who made his home in Walla Walla. Gulick wrote a letter to Thom, sharing his own fascination with the Chief Bigfoot legend and his own research into the subject. He even claimed to have found firsthand accounts of the creature from the 1860s, when settlers in the area reported seeing its tracks.
Of course, the existence of Chief Bigfoot, like that of Bigfoot or Sasquatch, is still a topic of debate among the general public. But for those of us who are believers, videos like this one are a reminder of the enduring mystery and allure of these elusive creatures.
I highly encourage all of you to check out the video for yourselves and see what you think. Do you believe in the legend of Chief Bigfoot? Have you had your own experiences or sightings in the Southwest Idaho area? Let us know in the comments below!
Excitement level: 6/10. The video's exploration of the beliefs and experiences of various people surrounding the Chief Bigfoot legend makes for compelling viewing. And the inclusion of Bill Gulick's letter adds an interesting perspective from a fellow writer and Bigfoot enthusiast.
