Recently, I came across a fascinating video from the YouTube channel Bigfoot Society that delves into some chilling Sasquatch tales from British Columbia. The video features articles from the Daily Non-Pareil in Council Bluffs, Iowa, dated August 19, 1934, discussing the appearance of Sasquatch in the region.
The articles describe the Sasquatch as a strange race of hairy giants, inhabiting the tremendous and unexplored mountain region of British Columbia, Canada. The reports of these creatures appearing more frequently in recent weeks have caused many to question if these strange creatures may not be more than an Indian legend of the past.
The Sasquatch has been described as gigantic men, varying from six and a half to seven feet in height, with long arms reaching below the knee. Most witnesses agree that the face of the Sasquatch is hideous, but descriptions remain vague as the creatures are rarely seen up close.
One of the most interesting accounts in the video is from an Indian named Tom Cedar, who was trout fishing on Morris Creek, a tributary of the Harrison, when a large rock struck the water so close to his canoe that he was drenched by the splash. Looking up, he saw a huge hairy man above him, just as he threw another rock that barely missed the canoe.
The video also discusses the periodic returns of these people to a certain place of worship at some ancient shrine or communication with members in some remote mountain fastness. These returns bring these people close to what are now civilized areas, making encounters with the Sasquatch more likely.
The scientific board connected with the Museum of Vancouver is skeptical of the existence of any such remnants of a race that once might have roamed the forest regions. However, the eyewitness reports have always been reluctantly given, and the chief objection among the natives to telling white inquirers is fear of ridicule.
Overall, the video is a fascinating exploration of Sasquatch sightings and legends from British Columbia. If you're interested in learning more about these mysterious creatures, I highly recommend checking out the video and doing your own research. Who knows, you might just come across some compelling evidence that these hairy giants do indeed exist!
