A recent video posted on YouTube by GIS Bigfoot Answers has caught the attention of the Bigfoot community. The video, titled "Bigfoot Sightings in Washington State," uses GIS (Geographic Information System) technology to map out reported Bigfoot sightings in Washington state. The video begins by showing the state of Washington with various labels and boundaries, as well as satellite imagery. Overlaid on top of this are red dots representing the Bigfoot sightings reported to the BFRO (Bigfoot Field Research Organization) database. The video also includes markers for national and state parks, national forests, and other types of parks and forests. As the video zooms in on clusters of sightings, it becomes clear that there are several hotspots for Bigfoot activity in Washington. One such hotspot is in Gifford Pinchot National Forest, located on the border with Oregon. This area has a significant number of sightings, with one cluster in particular standing out. The video then delves into specific sightings in the area, including a vocalization reported in August 2004 by a couple hiking and camping near Trout Lake. The couple described the sound as "the most God awful screams in the woods" and "like a wounded animal." Six of the campers went to investigate the source of the noise and reported smelling a foul smell that "smelled like animal droppings mixed with other odor." They quickly realized that they didn't want to come face to face with whatever was making the noise and returned to the campground. Another sighting in the area was reported in August 2002 by a father and son who were hunting near Trout Lake. The pair heard a wood knock and found large human-like barefoot tracks. They estimated the tracks to be about 13 inches long and made a cast of the print. The video also highlights several other sightings in the area, including a young girl who saw a road-crossing figure during a car repair stop in 1990, backpackers who heard multiple vocalizations while camping near Trout Lake in 2009, and hunters who had a late-night crossing sighting near the eastern boundary of Mount Hood National Forest in October 2009. Overall, the video provides a fascinating look at the reported Bigfoot sightings in Washington state. It's clear that there are several hotspots for Bigfoot activity in the state, particularly in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest area. The video serves as a reminder of the continued presence of Bigfoot in the Pacific Northwest and the ongoing efforts to gather evidence and learn more about this elusive creature. I encourage readers to check out the video for themselves and explore the reported sightings in Washington state. Who knows, you may just come across some compelling evidence that will further fuel your belief in Bigfoot!
