Now I’ll have to find it’s
Origins,since I just moved here.
Thanks Sister!
In other words, they found the whereabouts of michelle “Big Mike” obama?
Oh, yeah. {nods knowingly} That guy.
In Utah we have the legend of the Bear Lake monster (on the border of Utah and Idaho). My dad’s aunt had a cabin on the shores of Bear Lake and in the early 60’s we kids would go sit on the boat dock and dangle our feet in the lake. One night we could hear a noise in the dark—maybe 150 feet from us—that sounded like something big coming out of the water. Of course the girls (not us manly boys) screamed and rant back to the cabin. When we recited what we’d heard my dad said, “Oh yes, there is a Bear Lake monster, I’ve got a picture of it in my wallet.” He rummaged through his wallet and said “...here it is...oh wait, that’s your mother...”
What a guy.
Big mike was in the area.
First time camping up there I heard a soul piercing scream in the middle of the night and woke my husband up, telling him to grab the gun so we could go save the screaming woman. He jumped up with the gun and rushed out of the tent and then stopped to listen to see which direction he needed to go. Another scream and he came back in the tent cracking up. What was so funny about a lady in trouble? No lady. It was an elk. I had never heard one before🤣
I live right by the Prescott National Forest and this is the first time I’ve heard of a Mogollon Monster.
Went hiking and camping with two of my neighbor’s friends many years ago in the Padres National forest. They turned out to be not ideal folks for long hikes - or much else - and they griped at my intermittent trout fishing along the way and most of all because I carried my .22 AR-7 for snakes and such (they were Air Force enlisted and didn’t like guns)
We were traveling up a long, narrow canyon when it got dark, so we pitched camp for the night. I was feeling a bit spiteful, so I told them “ this is canyon the Manson lawyer disappeared in”. They started whispering back and forth, so I knew they weren’t going to sleep well now.
Then we heard footsteps in the brush near us. It was absolutely pitch black, yet whoever was walking near us was moving easily. Now my fellow hikers were really scared - and so was I. I turned on my trusty 5-cell flashlight but though I could hear more heavy footsteps, nothing was visible.
I said “whoever is out there, identify yourself - I am armed”. Nothing.
Then I said “identify yourself or I will open fire”. Again nothing - so I fired one shot straight up in the air -
And a Black bear charged through our campsite and out the other side!
I called to my fellow hikers and said “did you see that?” This time they didn’t answer. When they saw the bear, the two of them took off down the canyon and it was well after midnight before I found them and got them back to their sleeping bags.
Needless to say, never had any contact with those two after we got back.
No greater danger to this country than this administration. Xi and Putin are pussycats.
The story I was told was very distinct from the Bigfoot origin story. It involved an old rancher and three young men who worked as hands on the ranch. The rancher held a grudge against the Mogollon Monster, as he believed it had killed one of his sons. So his ranch hands were always armed with shotguns, and always worked as a team.
The rancher’s son had been out hunting in winter and was late returning, so the rancher rode out in the direction he said he was traveling, only to find his son’s head up in a pine tree. The body was never found.
Years passed, and the hands found the rancher’s remains in much the same way. They liked the old man so swore to hunt the beast down. One knew of a small cave in the area, so being the smallest of the three, he went inside while the other two kept watch outside.
The two were attacked, and so violently that the third knew he would have no chance if he went out to help them. Instead, noticing a crevasse in the cave just large enough for him, he squeezed in sideways as much as he could.
The beast entered the cave looking for him, and terrified beyond belief, as it reached in there and tried to claw him, deeply scratching his arm, he wedged himself firmly in the back of the crevasse. He passed out and woke up several times after the beast had gone.
The last time he woke up in the hospital. His rescuers had noticed the area in front of the cave painted with blood, and had a very hard time extracting him from the crevasse.
After he told his story, they tried and failed to find human remains, and he was in such a state of shock that he was sent south to the Arizona State Insane Asylum.
Lynx can sound like a woman screaming as if she were being approached by an axe murderer.
Interesting story. Looked for motre about the staircases and came aross this:
LOL. Probably the most open forest landscape I've seen.
$10 says Katie's never been east of Amarillo.
True.
That sounds like a giant...
Pecker! Wait, that’s not a woodpecker...
Send her back to Chicago and maybe she’d scare some gangstas.

You win the internet comment of the day. 🤣
he saw a “humanoid creature with long white hair and matted beard that reached to his knees.” The monster allegedly did not have on any clothing, and possessed at least two-inch-long claws on its talon-like fingers. >>>>>>>>>>
Sounds like a description of my old uncle Mortimor.
