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.

    I literally said in that initial comment:

    Some of my wife’s family are Bigfoot believers and she has a masters in folklore, so she went with them to a Bigfoot convention earlier this year. I don’t tell her what to do by any means, but I did tell her I was really against the idea

    You were just picking a fight with something you imagined I implied where I very clearly showed that I was not even trying to stop my wife paying money to those people.

      Yeah perhaps it is a good example of how people get their back up when their beliefs are criticized. I like Bigfoot and the paranormal and I don’t much appreciate it being called a scam. But I still don’t think you’re interpreting your comments and part in all of this as charitably as I have been on my side.

        You won’t get far with this guy, he loves getting into arguments with people for no reason at all.

        The correct response here would have been, “I’m sorry for lying and putting words in your mouth.”

        and I don’t much appreciate it being called a scam.

        Based on your assumptions about what I said, I should assume this means you want to stop me, correct?
