Sasquatch is a folkloric beast thought by some to roam the forests, particularly in the Pacific Northwest.

Summary

Two Oregon men, aged 59 and 37, were found dead from exposure in Washington State’s Gifford Pinchot National Forest after failing to return from a Christmas Eve trip to search for Sasquatch.

The Skamania County Sheriff’s Office attributed their deaths to harsh weather and lack of preparedness.

A family member reported them missing early Christmas Day, prompting a three-day search involving 60 volunteers, drones, canines, and Coast Guard infrared technology.

    Inexperienced people wouldn’t go out into the woods in bad weather conditions looking for Bigfoot if they didn’t think there was a Bigfoot in the first place. So they wouldn’t have been going into the woods for another reason. Not right now.

      Inexperienced people find lots of reasons to go into the woods. Drunken bonfires, chasing lost dogs, trying to be healthier by going for walks. Blaming this soley on believing in bigfoot is a little unreasonable.

        I’m not blaming it solely on anything. You’re right, they find lots of reasons. Don’t give them more.
