For decades, stories of alleged Sasquatch encounters have emerged from some of America's most remote forests—but what happens when the witnesses are park rangers, military personnel, government scientists, and other public officials? And if such reports have reached government agencies over the years, what records might exist documenting what witnesses claimed to have seen?
This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we revisit the strange intersection of Sasquatch and the U.S. government, beginning with an eerie military encounter before examining references to Bigfoot on U.S. Forest Service websites, a remarkable series of incidents preserved in the historical records of Crater Lake National Park, and documents obtained through Freedom of Information Act requests. We also explore alleged encounters around Yellowstone, the story of a man who tracked Sasquatch for the state of Wyoming, and testimony from researchers and witnesses who have spent decades pursuing one of North America's most enduring mysteries.
