I grew up in the Maine woods, I’m a Penobscot tribal member, I’ve seen and heard a lot in the woods, but thanks to RUclips I’ve learned alot of the things I’ve heard and seen that we’ve always gave excuses of the sounds we’d hear growing up, moving to Connecticut for work I heard stories of a swamp monster in occum ct, after years of hearing stories from people that didn’t know each other I think there’s a family of them in about a 20 mile area along the river there, we had a camp in vermont for years, one night I saw one, it was looking in the window at me about ten pm one night, it wasn’t scary looking or intimidating me, just looking like it was wanting to say something, when I made eye contact it stepped back a step and still watched me, after about 5 minutes it backed up and disappeared into the darkness, never saw tracks up there before that, the next morning me and my brother saw tracks, I put my size 17 4e chow in it and it was massive to my foot, the window it was looking into is 7’6” of the ground, and it’s two feet tall, I was 6’7” at that time, and it was at least two feet taller than me, his head filled up the whole window, it’s a 2’x3’ window, never saw him again, the Penobscot name for them is gwackoo, never believed in them till I was in by and saw one, seams to be in the fall when there moving south, glad I was inside, it was at least two and a half times my size, I was about 360 lbs at the time, I was 17 years old, I’m 64 now, and I still believe there real now
Yeah just talk to actual native tribes in Alaska and Canada and when they tell you surveyors die missing or torn to pieces that’s your spot
Dun ‘gahk ‘g ‘ya WOW- 6’7” , 360, 17 shoe size at 17 years old….WOW! No disrespect….But sounds as if you are a giant yourself. Did you play football or basketball professionally? Could you share the beings features from your face to face stare down?

Needs to be a documentary about if this guy exists or not lol.
The whole thing reaks of cap.
@@canthandleit101 Ya 6'7" 360 LBs is morbidly obese. and if it was mucale he could have dominated the NFL with ease. Maybe his weight was actually in KG not LBs. Northern maine has lots of canadian influce exspecially back in the day. Rest of the story seems fine enough, But his weight and height are unlikely so say the least.
There isn’t an episode of any series of STM that isn’t well produced, filmed/edited and presentation that isn’t great. I look forward each week for another exciting episode! Thank you
Just Bigfoot missing...
Out of all of the Bigfoot productions out there this is the only one that actually seems authentic!
this channel should have millions of members ! The quality is outstanding ! Thanks Aleks and STM for doing this for us to enjoy ! Im a believer and its is just a matter of time before we see / find something big !
Smash the bell, comment and share the channel and if you can become a member

@@markperrault5678they found you here on their page ..well look at that …
Im from India & live in the Himalayan Hills (Yeti territory).
New to the channel & love your content. Cinematography, music & editing is fantastic. If Bigfoot wasn’t a controversial topic with the so called mainstream, you’d probably have ended up with multiple awards for your documentaries. 👏🏼
Appreciate the kind words, thanks for tuning in! The Yeti is originally what got me interested in the Sasquatch topic, I'd love to investigate in the Himalaya's some day! Thanks for watching. -Aleks
@@SmallTownMonsters Loved the new Video. Your wilderness shots are incredible. It just keeps getting better and better. I can only wonder how mesmerised one would be to experience the beauty first hand👏🏼. Wish you all the success in the future.
Also was wondering if you could share some light on the northern sierras. The Sierra tapes have fascinated me for years. I’d love to know what’s your take on it. Thank you 🙏🏼
Nice work ❤
Sasquatch is an interdimensional being 😎
@@peakyblinder777 🤷🏽♂️🖖🏽🖖🏽
Looking forward to this next instalment! I’m a Brit across the pond but I do believe the creature exists, far too much circumstantial evidence in its favour. However, whether the team find the creature or not isn’t what draws me to these films, it’s the pure quality of the productions.
Can't wait for the next episode,, Love watching your show,, Thanks for taking us along on your adventures
Love a good British Bigfoot sighting
Well, there are some people that believe they exist in the UK but it they do it’s in the thick forested area of Scotland, much of which still hasn’t been explored. I have seen a video on RUclips that shows similar tree structures to those found in Canada and America but I’m not convinced. Great Britain is absolutely tiny compared to the States in the North America’s and, despite the size of the Scottish Caledonian forest areas, they are a fraction of the UK land mass and I’m not sure they would support such a creature without someone having seen one that strayed too far south. I can certainly believe they exist in the US and Canada, after all, bears exist in great numbers but how often is one seen in any Bigfoot documentary? I’d say I could count them on one hand so they have the ability to keep away from Humans so if they are rarely seen is it any wonder that a Bigfoot has not yet been captured on a TV cameraman’s film? I believe it will happen but like all the reported sightings, it will purely be by chance.
I met Rebecca at Beachfoot and been to Mt Adams with her . She is a dedicated researcher . She is also part of the Olympic Project. Great magnificent landscape and documentary!
Thanks, Kevin! Hope you get a chance to visit out this way again.
@@RebekahSlickyou should make some Bigfoot videos 😎
Those ending sky shots are just breathtaking. So vast and remote it's nice to see man hasn't ruined what nature created and has remained so after all this time.
These documentaries are so well done that I watch every single one with baited breath even when I know the outcome. Fun stuff.
Only time I have heard a "baby crying in the woods it was a cougar. No joke.
The marks on those trees are definitely trail blaze markers!
Absolutely love this channel. It's one I definitely have my bells set for . Thank you for all you put into the search for these elusive beings . We've come a long way since Paddy.
Thanks for watching and glad you enjoy the adventures with us.
Here We Go Again The Best Bigfoot Channel By A County Mile Just Keeps Getting Better And Better.🎉🎉🎉🎉
I love these videos especially the BC, Alaska and places like that, I could literally watch these for days!
Thanks! Yes those areas are just incredible, Sasquatch or not, they are some of the most beautiful places on earth.
Thank you for a beautiful series!
My kinda woman, beautiful, outdoorsy and down to earth.
Two 👍👍 up for Rebecca.
Your comments at ~11:00 about natural animals making odd sounds not usually heard, resonated - my experience like this was with cows of all things! I was staying in a cabin, in the GA mountains and I heard bellowing howl-calls-things that raised the hair on me. Freaked me out - echoing in the hills, seemingly coming from below toward the valley but also swirling all around. Turns out - it was the bulls/cows in the valley. Don't know if it was them in heat, but holy hell do they make a racket! Never in my life heard those noises before
Such good work 👏 Thankful for your team going out and searching for clues and evidence. I live vicariously through you all, beautiful coastal lands. I am familiar, I lived on Vancouver Island for many years.
Thank you guys for all of your effort ,,,🏆📽🎬
Great video guys again. I'm very happy these types of videos, where nothing happens, because it removes all doubt that you may sensationalise findings etc, and if gives so much more credence to the evidence you do find. Especially tracks and audio footage. It must be amazing visiting these sites of stunning wildlife and beauty, with or without taking Bigfoot into account. I do believe the thermal in conjunction with groud cameras will eventually get the evidence to settle the subject. Lets hope so soon. Again, excellent video 😊
I love these documentaries. I never expect them to actually film a Sasquatch w all those people and tech that have out there. It shouldn’t matter but it does. I think you best bet is no tech and one person but that doesn’t make a good show
My self in the uk dont seem to have big foots onthemoors of Lancashire that why i love watching this great film
THANK YOU!
That music track when you are scouting the coast from the boat is an absolute banger
Im a Pennsylvania ex pat that moved to the Olympic Peninsula (15 minutes from the Project) 6 years ago. I am still in awe of the scenery and wildlife.
I live in an area with a lot of experiences and sightings, but it is also known as the "banana belt" here on the North side. We get less than 40 inches of rain each year (25-30) but still have the moss on the trees, cilal, huckleberry, elk, deer, salmon, frogs and temperatures that stay between 25 for a cold winter night and 80 being a hot summer day and rare. Our climate stays mostly between 40 and 50 at night and 60-65 during the day.
wife and I have had rocks thrown at us, once a large bowling ball size rock landed ten feet from us, another time a 6 inch rock came flying out and hit a tree right above our heads. We keep going (I am hoping for more, wife and dogs are not). to the same trail area 3-4 times a week
I love watching your adventures with all the wild life but I'm glad you stayed in the warmth of the cabin. You need to look after yourself as you admitted. Get better soon xx🙏
Great investigation guys, top-notch stuff. I love the detail and scale that you guys conduct your research. Great video and very enjoyable series!
❤❤❤ thank you
another great episode! cant wait for the next installment!!
I can't wait for this video carnal ❤🙌💪🙏
Well, I like the way they research things. It’s organized and they explain findings. Plus the videos have awesome footage of the area. Makes me want to go camping.
Thanks for watching! Hope you get out there and do some awesome camping soon!
Stunning cinematography and excellent research. Keep up the good work Aleks.
So So excited!!! Watching from Idaho
Great work as usual STM ! Rebecca seems to be a kind soul .
Another good job, it's not about whooping and banging on trees. Good stuff Aleks
These shows are great and I love them. Can’t wait for the next one. Hope you all find and actually see a Bigfoot
Very well produced stuff. Props to the directors and producers.
IT'S SO VIRGIN AND BEAUTIFUL, YOU GUYS ARE SO PRIVILEGED TO DO THIS. I ENJOYED THIS VIDEO.
Hi from Uk love these guys great camera work..I am a believer too.one day I hope you guys hit the jackpot ❤️🥂🙏
Great video!
Love watching the videos from Alaska. Feel better Alek. Until the next one stay safe.
you guys go out get the facts and have fun while doing so. its amazing and you guys are doing this in a way that shows facts you see something and don't just go oh bigf was here you get down and look its good to see that
I live in Alaska and absolutely love the Kenai Peninsula! It’s definitely wild country. I wonder if perhaps since the area is so vast and remote that once they realized that the people weren’t going to go away, then they just moved on out of that area? Could account for lack of activity perhaps. One way to stay hidden, keep moving where you are not being looked for.
My friends I've been a long time subscriber watcher of the small town monsters Channel and my hat's off to every single person that puts forth effort into trying to find proof my only suggestion would be to whistle at night as mundane as that may sound or is that the wrong word to use these things will come to you they're drawn by whistling @ nightfall for some reason I don't know what attracts them from it but all I know is that you may get a Bigfoot you may get something else ( i.e. Dogman rake ect) so be careful out there keep your head on a swivel guys much love keep doing your thing best of luck Happy trails my friends 🙏💪💪💪‼️
Ms Slick looks green on the way there 😂
Another great episode!
Your documentaries are excellent and objective. And the places that you travel to are simply awesome!
Thanks for checking it out, we just try to keep it rational and use common sense as best we an!
The marks on the trees is trail markers where your going or keep you from not getting lost. Manny survival expert is that technique
Welcome aboard Rebecca from the Olympic Project. I've watched some episodes where you primarily do your research in Washington. Alaska is something else. I've not been there but the scenery us viewers are treated to is a treat for sure. That chirping of a bird happening at dusk is not a usual thing birds do, it was odd.
Hope you were beginning to feel better while out there Aleks.
Thank you to all of you for this episode.
Here we go in Alaska again 🤙🏽 Home sweet home 💝
Hauntingly beautiful
4:02 I have the same sasquatch tattoo, in the same spot as Beans! ❤ 😎 Got it about 10 years ago. 👍
The baby crying sound, sounds a lot like a Red Fox, I am an ecologist in the UK and do a lot of nocturnal sound recording of birds and bats and come across similar nocturnal fox calls. Not saying it definitely is but I would try to discount this species first. Felids can also make baby crying sounds like this. Keep up the great work enjoying the content.
Absolutely love these videos more of the wilderness look at this phenomenon. Bravo Aleks ☺️💕 Breathtaking views yet very mysterious.
great work fellas!
Some of the best videography of the hunt for Sasquatch, Take it to the next level Seth, Get funding to drop in unmanned surveillance pods that can shoot video 24/7 and on movement in regular, IR and other modes. I think this is what its going to take to finally identify and prove Sasquatch exists. Money, serious money. But hey, until that happens, keep these great video's coming! On a side note, Les Stroud had a few video's where he would double mark trees (front & back) when moving through the woods. He explained that making one side was kind of worthless when you are back tracking and can't see the marks. I would suspect a hunter or trapper made those double marks. Lastly, I and I bet others would be really intrigued with a video explaining the tech used to track Sasquatch, and not a basic explanation but an in-depth video of devices, brands, which drone does better than others, why you are using Baofeng radios for such a serious expedition. Tech goes well with Squatching especially for some of those who might not know the gear to use.
Another great episode! The film quality is exceptional.
Thanks for watching!
Fantastic 💜
My first time checking out your video. Nice video.
Welcome, thank you for checking out the video!
Another great episode. I really enjoyed it. The dynamic was changed massively with a female on board too. I think it really changed it up, i welcomed it. I think on one project you should bring in a survival or tracker enthusiast. I realise Alex you have some survival skills already, but i think this would be super interesting. I really enjoy the radio bits too. I think it would be beneficial to send another team a good distance again in the area. Theres something i cant put my finger on, it is ominous. I think something is watching. Keep doing what you do. Never stop. Love you guys.
I've said this before being in the avian field for nearly 35yrs now. And having worked "hands on" with everything from Warblers to Birds of Prey. It was faint but sounded like a Loon to me. Quite possible being up in Alaska.
not a loon … I have loons all over where I live , also Warblers to birds of prey. Doesn’t take having to have worked on birds to know what birds sound like 😮
Thanks for sharing, we value your experience working with birds for so long. Which sound are you referring to?
Those nocks sound are kind the same I love this videos
History, Discover, Nat Geo gonna be knockin on your door. Im sure they already have.
I’ve heard common animals in the woods make sounds I could never begin to explain if I heard it in the dead of night; amazing what kind of sounds can be created by an animal when a predator sinks it’s teeth into it’s neck. Sounds that make your skin crawl.
Those markings on the tree are Blazes. Def human. It’s a common practice.
Said it before but you need to utilise the trees. As in get up high and stay there. Set up a high tree stand. String up a hammock above head height. Mount cameras up high in wires. If you really want to go all in, you need to dig in. Create a hide in natural crevices such as under upturned trees or caves, and stay in it for a few days with no fires, no light and very little sound and movement. That means pissing in a bottle and shitting in a bag. You need to be aware that animals can smell you even after you’ve left the area that goes for everything you’ve touched as well. So always wear gloves when placing equipment. Do t even wash for a few days before going out there. Set up trip flares or early warning bells at different heights. Set up a camera on the backside of the cabin either on the roof or hidden underneath the window somewhere.
So looking forward to this episode 🤩
The baby crying sounds like a cat in heat.
Sorry guys I've seen this. Love you Miquel and thank for this video❤❤
Beautiful scenery, very well done video.
Alaska place of my people " Tlingit " I've hunted , fished trapped and camped , seen the otterman in action while out there in the woods and by the shore. seen other things one can't explain but are known by the elders of my people. wonderful and wild yet we belong there with them.
It's higher pitched in nature but sounds very similar to a fawn crying for it's mother.
Scary stuff!
It almost feels like watching a movie... I really hope you guys find the elusive rock thrower some day, but I gotta say, that hollow tree with the huge rock slab inside it and weird trail leading to it feels like its worth keeping an eye on; something about it looks off.
Get well soon !! Great video guys
The markers on the tree were made by a person- it kind of helps you if you get lost
There are always haters i love this channel and all the hard work that you do keep on squatchin
Thanks for watching!
Top notch video as always STM crew.
I think those tree rubs are possibly from deer, we get them here all the time (uk), its when they get the felt off their antlers I think.
Look forward to seeing more investigation in Area A in the future.
I’m really going to miss these. Love the Alaskan Coastal Sasquatch/Dark Coast series. Please tell me there will be more when the Dark Coast series ends
Glad you've been enjoying them so much, definitely will miss them myself as well! Aside from what's left of Dark Coast, there will be another Alaska related Beyond the Trail video still left to come, as well as the next few Beyond the Trail's taking place in British Columbia, so if you enjoy the Alaska content you'll likely enjoy that as well! -Aleks
You would think with all these expeditions some hard evidence would have been found by now, I was a hardcore believer once, let's all just face it, Bigfoot, Sasquatch, Paranthropus robustus, Yowie, Yeti, Gigantopithecus, just isn't around anymore.
ty alexs .. again you ever want another hit me up i live white mnts lincoln nh loved this
A hunter blazed a trail with a hatchet knife or a saw.Both sides for going in and out...
Exactly!
Could be, seems like a reasonable explanation for sure.
Thanks.
Fascinating that Kushtika lore.
I think females vocals can be effective . . . attractive
guys doing it are probably repulsive to them as they are to my ears
Silence out there in the end is best. You don't know what their voices are saying or what the knocks mean. So you doing it is meaningless and nonsense
We live close to the Canadian, Montana border, I've had incounters with B.F. Never seen one don't need to. Absolutely intrigued what these creatures are. You guys videos are very well done, Rebecca was awesome . Good job. Never get tired of looking at Alaska. Remember, Fear is the mind killer.
How can you have an encounter, but, you've never seen one?
Love it
I would be so happy If you would drop the music😂
54:04 that's a trick I learned from les stroud on trail marking your way so you can see where you went, and also where to get back to. I'm not saying I made those hack marks, but that's most likely done by someone not wanting to get lost.
BTW I'm really enjoying this series. I can't wait to visit AK myself.😊
Very interesting, definitely a possibility! Somebody could have been exploring the area at some point, even recently, certainly not out of the question.
The only time my dogs reacted to any of those sounds was the baby crying sound(i live in Australia), both stopped doing what they were doing and listened very intently not sure if that actually means anything just thought that it was interesting.
Awesome stuff! I wish I could have made this trip!
Ty for the channel
Looks like you came across an old native american trail or old gold miners trail. The blazes on the tress to mark the trail. Looks well used from back in the day.
I've seen thousands of pictures of footprints
You may have approached your search carefully in this location. the owner of the house attracted his attention to the aggressive noise of chainsaws. Of course, this method is not the rule on how to detect it 😊
I've watched this three days ago when it came out for members only. It was so good I'm watching it again
They found it this time?
@@gordanhatesjiujitsu ok where in the video is that at because I watched it when it first came out for members only and this is the second time I've watched it. I didn't see where they found Bigfoot both times I watched it 🤔
@@helengailtownsend260427:49 you didnt see it
I am impressed that it is mentioned that not all animal vocalizations sound like the "textbook" ones. Do all human voices sound the same? So why would all foxes sound exactly alike or only have a limited set of vocalizations. One of the things that annoyed me to the extreme on Finding Bigfoot is EVERY noise is a squatch. Also when some people hear an owl in the daytime and say it was Bigfoot. Funny how I see owls out in the middle of the day 30 feet from my deck. Watched plenty of videos with normal Barred owl sounds in the day with people saying it was Bigfoot. Bottom line, I like the objectivity.
One suggestion, it would be helpful to put the # of multipart series in the RUclips title.
Yes! I’m open minded on the wildlife calls but interesting is about as far as I’d go unless it’s outside of known range. I only say that because I heard a call that went on for about 5 minutes. Each call about 2-3 seconds in duration. It was loud, way out of the ordinary, and around 2:30 in the morning. Had I recorded it on video it would be more credible…. I understand that. This call sounded like a laughing hyena. Deeper than a Vixen call….which can sound similar (the specific “laughing” call). But the call woke everyone up and it was unnerving. Finally got a flashlight on the caller just as it started the call again and was shocked to see a coyote. It was actually cool not a disappointment. I’m sure there’s a lot of sounds that known animals are capable of. Oh, not saying the upload from the reservation video from maybe 10 years back was click bait but on the video the guy is recording the laughing call and someone in the neighborhood shoots a gun (probably to stop the call)? That video…..same call I heard but I was lucky enough to get an l.e.d. bright light on the coyote in my situation at least. But I’m open minded.
Miguel , it's John that baby crying sounds just like a Peacock, I grew up with them on my family's ranch outside Jackson CA, just not sure there is a big ass bird like that up where this was taken? Maybe someone's pet?
Anything new in New Hampshire? Miss the podcasts and local updates!
Hey Beans, I was wondering how that dry bag works for your audio recorder??
When y'all were hiking up behind the out houses and found those trees were scrapped off go bk thru the video I believe I see hair on the tree as your looking at it but it looked the color og the hair sample u got from the hair on that abandoned cabin check it out
