Love this story. It reminds me of a story my 97-year old Uncle told as kids from his time as a ground infantry soldier in Korea. They marched all over the countryside there, and he would tell us about a big Gorilla that was 10 feet tall and chased them around. He said its name was Tonsoo-Poo. We laughed and thought it was hilarious, and then of course he would jump at us and we would all scream and run away... But he told these stories of Tonsoo-Poo and how afraid of him they were, and gave detailed accounts about him. My uncle was NOT a "creative writer" type guy, or a drinker. He was all business, the ultimate 50's dad. So it makes me wonder now... was he really telling us about encounters they had with a BigFoot in Korea, but putting a humorous spin on it because he thought no one would believe him?

I am no specops guy but I found it strange those guys went for survival Training into Alaska without any ammo. I mean, there could be real predators out there, not just cryptids.

Chris, my mother and a friend of hers went on a trip to Alaska, a year or two ago. Part of the trip was a train ride from one place to another. Looking out the window, she saw something covered with hair, walking upright, in a forested area. Where she saw it was a remote place, a long distance from any other humans, houses, etc. It was too tall to be a man, and at that time of year, people in Alaska were not dressed in heavy coats and the like. Since you told this story today, and since my mother is no longer here to tell what she saw, I am passing this story on to you. Best wishes. Your program is a good one.

I love the sound of the water lapping in the background. What a beautiful spot for a video.

Grew up in alaska,mostly Kodiak Island Alaska,my dad was a great white hunter per say,elk,moose,carribu,deer etc,and his buddy from washington state went on a hunt with him,things went silent and a bad smell,and they felt observed.My dad was not a drinker,or bullshooter but he swears they were being tracked.They went back to camp,packed up and jumped in his plane and left.They had fire power but didnt feel good about situation,that was 60 yrs ago.

Thanks Guys!! You guys are AWESOME! 🦉🦉👀👀💀💀🌲🌲

Hi Chris, the waves lapping at the shore is very calming. I too find it interesting that the government put Sasquatch on the map

I find it fascinating that these things can be so stealth and quiet when they chose to be and at other times make a ruckus so as to intimidate people.

My daughter was working at the Crescent Lodge in the Olympic State Park, Washington when she had the chance to get a signal and call me as the sun was setting. The resort was closed for the season and employees had been leaving. She was alone. We were talking when she said, "hmmm..... what is thaaa..." and began hyperventilating. The most terrifying moment as a mother came up on me but she was okay. She was able to run into the lodge and broke down in tears. That was a very REAL experience and she denied it for years. But she's since talked more about it.

Camped around that USAF survival training area many times. Its called Tacoma Creek. Lots of strange stuff goes on. Never seen one, but many times heard "howls", whistles, and other unexplainable sounds. Odd tree breaks/structures on occasion. Of course the biggest share of these are the AF students practicing building shelters. Really neat area. Theres no shooting in the survival area, so that might be good for bigfoot activity. God bless!

You are the best advert ever for USA. The beautiful places you take us and you yourself are a great person, like millions of others in your country. Much love from 🇬🇧.

A great story as always, thanks Chris!! And thank you for showing my picture of Bigfoot I sent you!! It was the one circled in orange marker for your viewers

I live in South central Alaska and there have been numerous reports of sasquatch crossing roads and in the woods over the past couple weeks. Some reports I heard are within 15 miles of me.

Chris over 125,000 subscribers! There are RU-vid channels that have been doing this topic for over 10 years and do not have a fraction of your success! I am so happy for you! Well deserved because you continuously provide content that is consistent and stays on topic. Love it.

Great story but it's got a lot of holes. No modern "recon" force leaves the wire without NODs (night vision). In fact, the U.S. Army "owns" the night. The preference, especially during ingress and egress from a target is by night. Nobody sets up a "camp" on a recon mission and has time to "read," you're not making coffee or cooking anything (even with an MRE heater). If you are doing recon, you are by definition in enemy territory. US Army doctrine is at least 1/3 of personnel are pulling security at any one time when in a patrol base. The hierarchy of work in a patrol base is: 1. Security 2. Weapons cleaning and maintenance 3. Personal Hygiene 4. food 5. Sleep. (The training is so good I can remember that after nearly 25 years). You just don't go "off" mission to pursue something in the woods without getting authorization from your next higher. A recon patrol has a mission to complete they just don't bounce around the woods looking for cool stuff. Either you missed a lot of the details in Miles' story (details are important) or you need to verify Miles' military CV. There are a lot of "SF, Force Recon, Sniper, door gunners on the space shuttle" running around out there.

I can backup the Fairchild AFB part. I was there in 1980 training as a survival instructor. I washed out after our Winter outing. We never got that map but when the base commander gave his welcome speech he told us how one of his instructors had a bigfoot encounter. And in effect letting us know that he was open to any encounters we might have.

Great great story Chris…one of my favorite stories involves multiple people living the same story as this one…and wow what a back scenery you had through out this story with that lake behind you…thank you Chris this was a great story 😊

Hello from the Navajo Nation, Chris!🪶 Thank you for sharing another great story/experience. I love your “Park Service” cap 🧢 btw, my parents both retired from the Park Service!💚

Chris I absolutely live your channel! I look forward to watching it every Sunday. Every story you relay from your readers is absolutely on the high end of exillerating, intense and entertaining and totally believable! I can see the stories unfold like a video in my mind as you're telling them. And the places you go to to tell the stories are places of beauty! Tgat is one beautiful lake that you're at for today's story. Looks like a lake to take a boat out on, shut off the engine and just drift and enjoy God's beauty! Thanks again for your channel, keep the stories coming! God bless you!

The survival school at Fairchild AFB is called SERE: Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape. I attended it in the 1970s while stationed at Ft Lewis And yes, Chris is correct when describing the topo map.

I was a SERE instructor in the Air Firce from 75-79. I taught at the Fairchild Air Force Base school in northeastern Washington. The training area was further north, just north of Cusick, Washington in the Colville national Forest. On one of the training missions I had an element of students mix of officers and enlisted, all air crew members, training in global survival. We were in the phase of learning land navigation, and we were traveling from point to point, bushwhacking. We were a little bit behind on time, and we stopped and noticed huge footprints in the soft duff. They were approximately 18 inches long and about 6 inches wide , my students saw them and ask what in the hell are those and I said Bigfoot. They picked up the pace and we made it to our point on time. Unfortunately, I did not have a camera with me to take pictures of this. On another occasion, I had an element of students in training and my camp was about a quarter mile away from where the element was camped , We were in a static situation. It was about 9 PM and I was alone and calling it a day. I was laying down when something ran across the clearing and the interval of the footsteps and the vibrations told me that whatever ran across was quite large and the way it ran across gave me the impression. It was on two legs.

I had a Bigfoot encounter when I was a kid. Our family was visiting family friends in Willits California, located in Northern California, Mendocino County. We were visiting for the 4th of July. The family we were visiting lived in the mountains and the homes built there were spread out pretty far. The weather was nice so myself, my brother, sister and the two sons of the family we were visiting wanted to sleep outside. The family we were visiting had a large 6 person tent they pitched for us. As we were asleep in the tent I was awoken to the sound of twigs snapping as something approached the tent. I knew whatever it was, was sizeable. As the twigs were snapping with a loud crack. Rather than faintly if it were a raccoon or possum for example. Whatever it was came almost all the way up to the tent stopping only a few feet away. I was alarmed and frightened knowing something was out there, possibly a black bear? However when it started breathing heavy/sniffing and making a strange grunting/combined growling sound, I knew it wasn’t a bear. Not only that the sound wasn’t at or near ground level where we were sleeping. The sound was coming from much higher, something towering over us. It paused at the tent for only 4-5 seconds and then took off like a bat out of hell running down hill through the forest. You could hear massive shuffling of leaves and twigs snapping under it’s feet as it ran away. Including trees rustling and smaller limbs snapping and being cracked off as it ran away. I presume it was grabbing/slinging itself off the trees to help it control its rapid descent down the mountain. The sound and speed of it crashing through the forest was incredible, like a truck was driving through it. The sound of it running lasted for about 6-7 seconds and then the sound of it running stopped. There was a pause of silence for about two seconds. Then it started this blood curdling howling I had never heard any animal make that just carried through the forest. By my estimation of the distance of the howling to our tent. It had travelled approximately 75-80 yards in 6-7 seconds running down hill. It continued to howl for about 4-5 seconds and then I heard the sound of a very large tree branch being broken off. I knew it was a large limb as the sound it let off. A massive cracking and snap as it was broken off, rustling against surrounding tress as it fell to the ground with a heavy thud. Then it continued to run away until you couldn’t hear the sound of leaves, twigs and branches rustling anymore. It’s stark quite in the woods and sound travels well. At the point that it started to run away from the tent I started hitting and shaking everyone in their sleeping bags waking them up. They all heard the thrashing of it running through the forest and it howling as well. We were all scared as heck and quickly abandoned the tent, making a mad dash to the house and woke our parents. My sister was so scared she was crying. They said it was probably a bear. They didn’t experience it and from the height of the sound over the tent, to the sounds it made, it’s massive speed, power, howling and breaking of tree branches… It wasn’t a bear! Still gives me goosebumps thinking about it as I type this out to this day...

I was born at Fairchild Air Force Base - two months premature on April 7th, 1955. My father, Capt. Clayton Clifford Sherman was an engineer and pilot.

Thank you for sharing this interesting story this week! I always enjoy seeing the surroundings of where you are hiking or camping.🤩

I have been around this stuff since I was a graduate student in Anthropology in the 1970's. The agencies, and I mean all of them, including the military are well aware of these creatures. Several have special procedures when they are encountered, especially if dead or wounded. I refer to the case of the burn victim up in Battle Mountain who became burned during one of the large range fires up there. Also, the victims of the Mount St. Helens eruption, which supposedly decimated over a dozen clans. It is a myth that they are isolated in the Northwest. Not so. Their populations have grown and they are now in all of the states of the US alone. They are illusive, very family protective, and extremely territorial. They have been found even out in the high desert areas of places like Utah (like the Hamlin Valley area) with a recent case up in the Ruby Mountain area of NE Nevada, where some hunters got run out of their camp by some very aggressive ones. I have had two personal experiences- one at a campground right by the entrance to the Crater Lake Park where one walked right through our camp during the night (yes, they are primarily nocturnal)), and the other was deep in a very isolated area of the Middle Fork of the Feather River just below Brush Creek, CA. They have incredible senses and can be extremely stealthy. Many times they move through the woods by themselves, but it has been my observation that they are never too far from family, which they will protect with their lives. In my opinion, they are remnants of the Gigantopithicus family but closer to us genetically (based on what I have seen of the DNA data). It is my understanding that they are protected.

Love your delivery, beautiful surroundings. Hearing the water lap on the shore transported me to your location. Thank you ❤

What a gorgeous place you picked to tell this story. Its quite a story. That is something that a military map actually makes mention of Sasquatches being a creature that might be encountered in the deep woods of Washington State. That has to tell us something. I hope you enjoyed the rest of your day in that area.

Very interesting and revealing; the fact that the Air Force map recognizes Sasquatch as a matter of fact.....because it is👍👏🙏🤠

I wait until 9:00 PM when I am settled down and enjoy my dessert while watching your program Chris. It was great as always!

No ammo!! What the heck? They could have run into any number of animals that could be vicious and dangerous. That is so foolish! Plus, BF on the back of the map! Good grief! Great story, Chris.

That's great that they had a bigfoot on the back of the map. It's silly to ignore the fact.

This channel is so addictive in a good way. Ive never seen anything weird, but that doesnt mean weird stuff isnt out there…

Got my coffee ☕! Coffee & Chris - Happy Day!

Good Morning Chris, I hope You are doing well! God Bless You! 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼

Yes!! Saving this for tonight :) Thanks!!

I grew up in NE Washington in the 60's and 70's and there was bigfoot stories going around back then. I remember one time I heard tree knocks when I was riding my horse up in the woods. I didn't really give it much thought at the time.

Great story Chris, I always look forward to hearing about what people have encountered , and you tell it so well 😊👍

Great story telling... like many with shreds of truth and hard to explain. Unless you've been in the military, some stories are hard to add up. As a Navy Veteran of nearly 12 years, I was never assigned to a ship! Meanwhile at a picnic I ran into a guy who was assigned ship duty.... in the Army! Assigned right out of Boot Camp!...He said, somewhat angrily: "if I wanted to be on a ship I would have joined the NAVY!!!" He then asked me what line of work I was in... I said "you don't want to know"...he insisted that he did, and though proud of my Navy service, I was reluctant to tell him...and sure enough, when told, his face had this, contorted, confused look, then he simply mumbled "You've never been on a ship??? Never... on a ship???...That ain't right man, that ain't right!"... later in my career I got to visit a carrier and a fast attack sub...but MY job was land locked! I was part of a "Space Force" that dealt with Satellites in Geo Stationary Orbit in the 70's & 80's... Originally known as DSCS (Defense Satellite Communications System) We were part of the US Navy's contribution to the joint global operation of DSCS (pronounced discus) We were trained by the Army at Ft Monmouth and Ft Gordon, home of the US Army's Signal Corps School. My 'Sea Duty' could be in remote places like Iceland, Diego Garcia, etc...I was fortunate to see the transition from Navy SATCOM to NATO's SATCOM in Keflavik, with special training in Italy and earning a NATO Rating of OR-1(Navy ET1) and given a NATO ID CARD to boot...oh the stories I could tell...these videos are part of a "Round Table of Knowledge" (see the channel), also MISSING 411 and others. The Book of Daniel mentions that "KNOWLEDGE SHALL BE INCREASED", which we are certainly witnessing and at an alarming pace (think AI, UFO/UAP, Edward Snowden, Q, Col Corso, etc). For reference see Matthew's Testimony (Gospel) Chapter 24. The line between Good & Evil is becoming sharper...with the future becoming unbelievable and the (true) past being revealed...fasten your seatbelts, it's gonna be a bumpy ride (See John's Testimony -The Revelation) Thanks again for the story

Georgous spot there. This was a great story. They have always been around and the government knows it. Thanks Chris. 👣

Great story,it reminds me of my brother in-law was in the army basically doing same thing with no live ammo of course except it was in the early summer and the mosquitos are huge and many but suddenly he and his platoon heard something coming and it was a moose but it chased them for Miles and they thought they were going to be dead from dehydration or trampled but finally after a couple of hours it left them alone!!!

Blessings to you Chris. Thank you for your stories.

Hi Chris. Love your videos. I look forward to Sundays. The scenery where you are is beautiful.

Another week and a great Creepy story this Sunday Chris love it❤. thanks. Beautiful place your at. 😊 Keep hiking😊

What a crazy story of US gov't Special Ops in pursuit of an unknown creature, then having to abandon it due to being spooked out by it, adding it would outnumber us. Your viewer Anthony's story of special survival training with Fairchild Air Force base in WA is really interesting that the back of the map showed sasquatch as a "dangerous animal", a rather undeclared and implicit admission of the existence of North America's cryptid.

Beautiful surroundings chris out there.

The best story teller, love your Sunday stories Chris.

Wow those footprints are enormous 😳. Thank yo BC Chris for another awesome video ☕ 🥾🥾🌅🏕️.

Happy Base Camp Chris Sunday! Always looking forward to your videos.

Once again, storytelling at its best! Thanks for posting.

Another amazing post! and love the shots of the lake and mts! Best from Colorado!

This is one of my favorite backdrops for any of your videos. Looks beautiful with just the bush in the foreground and the water moving in the background, with mountains setting it all in play; so serene Chris. Great job.

Absolutely beautiful lake and area Chris. You certainly select the most beautiful places to share your story each week. I also love the cabin. Thank you for this most I interesting and delightful story.

I believe there is a bfro incident of a team of military people training just like this story, but in the middle of the night a bigfoot ran next to or through their camp. The military people tracked the things to a hillside where they could see 2 figures on the high ground observing them. Once the mission was over and they were back to their base, their CO asked the commander if they ran into any of those big fella's, and the commander was amazed that the CO knew of these creatures.

good one Chris!! Just think of the strength that thing had with a 12 inch diameter 35 foot clean break on that tree. plus the 5 ft stride’s in over knee high snow. 😊😊😊❤❤❤ thanks for sharing!

Awesome!! I've been waiting on Base Camp Chris! 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤️ Happy Sunday! Thank you Chris! Keep hiking 🥾🥾 👣 (Edit) AWAYS carry in Alaska!💯

It's really cool. How you can just visualize everything while listening. Good story teller.

I was very surprised to see your channel doesn't have many more subscribers. I've been watching for a few years now and never looked to see how many subs you had till today.

Nice one Chris. I know what those guys were doing having served 4 years in the Infantry. We do most of our training at night. We OWN the night!!

I usually don't take time to listen to these kind of stories. There is something very unique about this gentleman something very real and believable. I'm in 💯 Definitely going to check out more. Used to seeing so much crap on social media . This is a wonderful reprieve from that and very refreshing. Thank you 🙏

I have been watching your channel for years and have recommended it EVERY CHANCE I get . You come across as such a genuine, awesome dude and have changed many family/friends minds about sasquatch ! Please, keep it up. Stay safe, ✌️

FASCINATING! Those tracks are in line, not side by side like a human, but similar to a chimp, yet so much larger. Watching chimps walking on a thin branch in a certain way, I noticed that they put one foot directly in front of the other, so that they don’t fall off; maybe that’s why Sasquatch tracks are often in a single line instead of side by side, maybe their tree climbing ancestry ( and current tree climbing behavior ) has influenced the way they walk on ground?

Happy Sunday to you Chris! I'm on my way back to camp in northern MN again this summer. I might be lucky enough to record something.

Great dtory Chris..the water sounds so relaxing. You just never know what strange encounter you could accidentally run into. Just wow.

Good one Chris!Really interesting.Have to check out Washoe Lake.Looks like a great open water kayaking area with nice mountains.Thanks for sharing🌲

I love these stories, Chris. Thank you. Personally, I would love to hear more government/Sasquatch stories. #whataretheyhiding !!👾😯

Good Morning Chris...I am joining you with a cup of coffee☕️... I like the Scenery you picked, I turned up my TV just so I could hear the lapping of the water. Weird that they are in Alaska doing their reconnaissance, I wonder 🤔 if they do that very often... That footprint they found is huge, would be nice if they found a Sasquatch or find evidence 🤔 of one..Great story, Chris... Hope to see you camping 🏕 soon...Keep Hiking!!!

Chris , once I found your program on RU-vid,I was hooked! I watched all of them and can't wait for the next one. So different from other Sasquatch shows. Keep up the good work from a fellow Minnesotan 😊

Washoe Lake is nice. In the late 1970s, I was the crew on my dad's 16' saiboat. Sierra Yacht Club had races out there. At times under sail, I hiked out on the edge of the boat parallel to the water. Great memories. Bigfoot intrigues me as I have lived in areas they're known to be. I have never seen one. When I was younger, I didn't know about Bigfoot. I also learned to ignore much of the nighttime noises. The prints in the snow seem obvious. The tracking in Alaska is really interesting. I like how when the team determined the other entity was tracking as good if not better than them, plus the nighttime racket, that's when they backed off to head back in. They certainly honed their tracking skills on that training!

Hi Chris i just found your channel a few days ago i have been watching it since i did subscribe, you do a amazing job telling your stories, i just wanted to tell you that, keep up the amazing work that you do and stay safe out there, lots of love from my family to yours from West Virginia ❤️🙂

That is a very cool lake. I have family that lived in the Washoe Valley for years. The lake freezes over in the coldest times and we used to ride dirt bikes across alot of it. Virginia City is a short ride over Jumbo Grade which is visible from the lake. Very cool place

Hey Chris, I'm really loving your channel! I've watched about 3/4 of your creepy story videos so far. I've often thought about trying out hiking but never made any concrete plans. I've finally decided to give it a go! You've inspired me to actually go out and do it! I'm in the process of choosing an accessible location and picking out/purchasing the necessary gear needed to start. Thanks for your wonderful stories and for inspiring me and probably many others to get up off of our butts to take a hike!!! Take care, Cat from Montréal 🇨🇦

Fantastic story

Great story telling, Chris! Had to be a Sasquatch! Had to be a big one!

Love your stories Chris, and you always choose such amazing locations! Love and Blessings from🇬🇧

Just seen your Babbel.....next 2 days im sighning up for ...spanish...dad has emigrated there so wish me luck....ps im in uk and think your videos and content are bob on ( uk saying for 👌). Thankyou for being you, telling it how it is, straight to the point, perfect for listening to when chilling out with your narrartion👌👌👌.

Daughter live just miles from the Air force base....and their military plane fly over by droves every day. Love this story..and me and my hubby had a "Squachi" incident when we went camping as well...years ago....

Good morning Chris!

Good story and it sounds completely legit. I had a similar experience in Arkansas in the woods one night when I was dragging a deer out. No vocalizations but heavy foot steps, tree shaking and tree knocks which i think more than one of these things was involved because one of them slipped up beside me in the dark on the way to my truck. I never knew he was there until I hit the unlock on my keybob and he took off and crashed through the underbrush. Animals don't do that. It was weird but it made me a believer even though I didn't actually see anything.

Awesome as always Chris. You are the absolute best by far. Thank you for just being you. Stay awesome. KEEP ADVENTURING GOD BLESS YOU!

Thank you for the video and the laughs brother ! ☺♥

Hi Chris, Thank you for your Sunday video. I always enjoy it, spring has sprung in Illinois. Be safe. Thanks Miles for your service, Glad I was in the Navy lol.

Chris that was a good story but CAN YOU PLZ GIVE US A SCARY ONE like the ep about the kids baby sitting in the bigfoot was knoxkin on the window 💯

Base camp Chris, hope all is well. Thank you so much for the wonderful content…Much love from Texas!

Another great video Chris! Thank you

Wow, one of your coolest episodes! Thank you Chris.

Yay, B.C. Chris! Long time,no hear!

You are so right Chris! This story is interesting. Very scary as well. Although bigfoot doesn't seem to be violent, it's nothing I would want to come up on. Lol. These living beings are so fascinating that I hope one day that someone can get a clear upfront photo of these creatures. Their domain is the Forrest and they don't want to be threatened. It's their territory. Also, I often wonder what the government knows and not saying anything to the public. Fascinating!!! Stay safe Chris ❤

Great video! Thanks for sharing.

Good morning..just love your stories❤❤❤😊😊😊

The hole within this story is the size of Wisconsin. In my younger years, I grew up hiking, fishing and camping Alaska. NOBODY in their right mind (military or civilian) wanders into the wilderness of Alaska without weapons and ammunition (of substantially large calibers) - NOBODY. Bigfoot? Even an Alaskan bull Moose is more than capable of becoming your worst and final nightmare. I'm certain some of my brethren will concur.

Hi Mr chris.your awesome story teller.can listen to you all day and night 👍❤️

Love this story Chris . Your story telling is awesome. Thank u

Out in Arizona the elders of the Pima tribe call them the "invisible hairy giants" for a reason.

Fun Fact about Washington state , im 34 now but when I was young I got a book from goodwill that was about our national and state parks and showed a few things special about each state, it also listed animals native to the state and had sasquatch listed by the gov as an animal local to Washington state, always thought that was crazy but forgot about it until you said that about the map.

I've been watching you for yrs now. i love your channel. thank you. i travel as single back-packer alone too. please dont ever stop. God bless sincerely Great Pacific Norhtwest sincerely :} MGjack :)

Hola Chris I enjoyed your video. Thank you so much for taking us along very interesting. Just want to say your awesome. Have a wonderful evening love and God bless.♥️💕❤️🙏🙏🙏😇

Thank you Basecamp!🙌

My Sunday is complete watching your awesome video ❤

Another good one. Love your Spanish. keep learning and we can talk. Fun.
