Unexpected Result

Let me tell you a little bit about my day.

Saturday (yesterday) we decided not to go out on a 4 wheeler ride due to high winds. Being in the mountains during high winds can be very dangerous and even if you don't get injured there is a chance that trees could be blown down across the trails and block you in. 

So, the wife and I decided to take a trip to town, to buy a few work supplies and eat a nice dinner. On the way home we decided to take the scenic route.  This route goes near one of my research areas.

Mount St. Helens The aftermath

Conspiracy Theory - Mount St. Helens Bodies

Conspiracy theories abound in any genre and the bigfoot community is no different. I've thought about the Mount St. Helens conspiracy theory for awhile now. And now I'll ready to discuss what I've found and what I think so far.

First, let's set the scene with what happened May 18, 1980. We know a volcano erupted. Ash and boulders as big as buildings were blown up into the sky to come raining down on the earth. There were massive streams of mud and silt that had speeds of up to 70 mph that destroyed everything in their paths. There was a landslide, the largest debris avalanche in recorded history, that swept north down the mountain, with most of it turning to the west. It traveled as far as 14 miles down the valley of the North Fork Toutle River. It removed Mount St. Helens northern flank. The eruption removed nearly 1000 feet of the cone. The landslide triggered a lateral blast which devastated an area nearly 19 miles from west to east and more than 12 1/2 miles northward from the former summit. Six miles from the summit there were virtually no trees remaining from what was once a dense forest. Over a billion dollars worth of destruction. Fifty-seven people died.

 Interview and Bigfoot Activity

I've been a little while getting this ready to posting. It is from our, what amounted to, a three-day expedition looking for bigfoot evidence in Kentucky. Guy Luneau had driven from Arkansas to explore the wilderness with me. While we were out there in the woods, I wanted Guy to tell about his 2006 Bigfoot event on camera. What happens at the end of his story was very unexpected and just what we saw or didn't see is a struggle for both of us. One look at the image above and you can see the shock, fear, and awe on Guy's face. It was a genuine reaction that was also filled with excitement.

We had already had a very successful day and had found a lot of bigfoot tracks. We sat down and had a small snack. Once done with our snack,  I had Guy tell us his 2006 story, then it kind of got interesting for a bit.
