Bigfoot - They live all over BC and for that matter all over North America as well. Many other parts of the World also enjoy their presence , and have given them many different names according to what Country or part of the World they are living in. They are large peaceful creatures. Curious about us and the things that we do. They don't seem to mean us any harm. If they did , there would be attacks taking place all the time, but that just isn't happening. They just seem to like to observe us, or study us. I wonder if they actually learn anything from us ; probably more than we think ! Native Indian legend has referred to them as being a People. The more I get to know about Sasquatch, the more I tend to start believing this myself. The shape of their body is like us, just larger ; they walk and move like us ; they seem to have a language for communicating. People who have seen them up close say that the face is just like that of a human, only covered with hair. They seem to have an amazing intelligence. A young girl said to me one time that maybe they are just a big hairy Caveman that didn't get to be like the rest of us. Children will sometimes come up with an explanation for things that can get you to wondering. One thing I do know is that it is hard to consider these things to be human but it is even harder to consider them to just be an ape, because they have very little in common with apes and a tremendous amount in common with Humans.

In 1956 and while serving as a 2nd Class Petty Officer aboard the aircraft carrier USS Princeton, Robert W. Morgan had an encounter with what is now commonly termed a Sasquatch or Bigfoot. While hunting in the mountains of Mason County, Washington, he responded to the sounds of rustling in the brush uphill and behind him. There he spotted patches of blackish hair moving away quickly through the brush. Naturally, he assumed it was a bear. However, when it paused in a small opening, he found himself facing a large bipedal hominoid. This entity stood erect the entire time expressing surprise, indignation and curiosity - but not anger. Morgan himself felt amazed yet not threatened. After several moments of exchanging stares, Morgan chose to leave the area. As a young man from a steel town in Ohio, he had not yet heard of the Sasquatch or the Bigfoot. His attempt to report to local law enforcement his encounter with "an escaped gorilla" was not taken seriously. Worse, when he tried to share his story with his shipmates they also assumed he was joking. He angrily vowed to return to that area to repeat his encounter. It was those intelligent eyes that most intrigued him.
