I believe the possibility of there being a real Bigfoot is extremely low. However, I have always hoped such a creature would be found. The program “Finding Bigfoot” has exterminated the last vestige of my hope.
Go to Washougal, WA and take the Washougal river road until you reach the the Gifford Pinchot NF. Go back at least 3 miles then park and hike along one of the overgrown old logging roads. At sundown break out the Vienna sausages and simmer over a campfire. Chances are you’ll ‘find’ bigfoot.
I lived thereabouts for 2 years, up on a ridge a few miles from the Columbia river gorge. I can’t tell you the number of times I was woken up at night by ‘somethings’ in the woods making gawdawful noises, chasing coyotes, attacking livestock etc.
People disappear all the time in the woods btw.
