Summary: DEAD BF BODIES FROM MOUNT SAINT HELENS SEEN

Sighting Text:
WA CLARK 1980 TR#91 * Fred Bradshaw report concerning dead Bigfoot bodies near Mt. St. Helens. My father worked for Weyerhauser Co. at Green Mountain ,WA, east of Vancouver. The site has security on their roads to check on the equipment and check closed areas to keep people out. My father was working the day Mt. St. Helens blew up. He was at a meeting in Kelso, WA, and as he was a supervisor, when Mt. St. Helens blew it's side out, all heck cut lose. My father was sent back to Green Mountain right away but like most he wasn't allowed to go very far because of the mud slide coming down the river. He did get to the town of Toutle, WA, on highway 504 off I-5. He and his crew were placed at different spots to watch mud flow and of course help people get out of the blast zone after the major blow up. He was sent to the area of Sprit Lake to keep people out. When the second major blow up of the mountain came, my father and the other guy with him reported in, and they got out of there. Well he was then placed in charge of the helicopter landing zone. It was his job to help keep people out of the landing zone and let aid crews in so they could care for injured. Later. when all the people were out and bodies out, the National Guard was brought in to clean up. They hauled dead animals out that they placed in piles; deer in one, elk in another and so on. They were covered up with tarps and later burned. But my father was placed in charge of one pile of dead that were covered and no one was allowed to go near. Armed U.S. National Guard personal were around this pile, and one day when they were going to move this group of bodies, and my father was very close to it and was told to keep his mouth closed. And when the tarps were removed he saw the creatures, some badly burned and some not. They placed them in a net and lifted them into a truck and covered it over. My father asked a guardsmen what will they do with them and he said study them or what ever...he didn't want to know. He said it's like other things you don't ask, and off they went . AND NO ONE KNOWS WHAT HAPPENED TO THEM. My father and the rest were debriefed and sent home

Summary: LADY ATTACKED BY BF AND KILLED

Sighting Text:
WA CLALLAM TR18, HARRY OAKES* There's only been one case that they know of when a human was attacked... Up in the Olympics Mts. of Washington. a woman was ripped into three pieces in 1964 or 1965. The deputy that Harry met in a bar (not for sure it wasn't the alcohol talking...or maybe it loosened his tongue just enough...and it was the truth) said (talk1ng about BF, Harry was up there on a search), "We got this Bigfoot problem up here." And then he went on to say, "the guy (boyfriend) came out...he was in shock and had blood all over 'em." He made the initial report to the Forest Service..."my girl-friend's been killed." They went in there and found the woman ripped literally into pieces...the body had been separated into three parts. They thought at first it was a bear (as the news report apparently stated), but. forensic's says, "no way...there's no claw marks, (or tooth or axe marks) there's nothing (to indicate what had happened)." When they got the guy able to talk, he said, "a big creature came out...she started screaming...it scared it. It just picked her up and started pulling her apart." He got out of there and is still really upset over Bigfoot attacking his girl-friend. "This is information that was given to me second hand, and I don't even remember the name of the deputy that worked up there," Harry said (comment included for those not wanting to believe BF would hurt a human). When I asked point-blank, Harry said, "I think he was telling the truth."

WA CHELAN 1991 TR#82 47 20N 120 34W * Was contacted by Stephen Maher of the Wenatchee World for an interview about Bigfoot. He wrote a nice front page article Nov. 2nd (submitted Gordon Stomquist) that was well written and had some stuff I wasn’t aware of. One: “A man prospecting in the Tronsen campground area near Blewett Pass (WA) said he found a dead Bigfoot with red eyes in 1991. The man said he’d heard high-pitched screeches two nights earlier, and that U.S. Forest Service employees photographed the dead animal...the Forest Service has no record of the incident.” Contacted Peter Byrne to investigate the possibility of a dead Biggie...he’ll let us know. At Bigfoot Lunch it was commented that often FS employees kept their own records, and they are transfered a lot...the people who took the photos might be long gone.

Sighting Text:
WA COWLITZ 1980 TR#91 Speaking of Mt. St. Helens, someone brought up the topic of corpses of Bigfoot. He had heard of two that the Army Corps of Engineers had taken out (this was two months after the blast Mar 20 1980). Terry Reams heard of a dredging operation of the Cowlitz River and two bodies were found in the sand (probably same case?). A chopper had flew them off. Joe Beelart offered that the crane doing the dredging was from the Manatowaka Company, and that the bodies were found two weeks after the blast. He suggested that somebody might want to track down the company and find out who was working the shift that the bodies had been found on.

Stinkin' Forest Service and their choppers!!! Don't ever trust anyone willing to wear a pickle suit! :laugh:

:laugh: It was to the point that I was afraid to look at the "reports' for other states.

I wouldn't jim, because we all know that the Forest Service monitors those sites...they'll see you looking and they'll know that you are on to them, and who know what they may do!

This is making my head hurt...must be the tracking device the Forest Service planted in my head....

Is there any way that someone can interview some of the NFS employees invoved? Unless it involves national security or a criminal investigation, why won't they talk about this?

Anyone who can say " I saw those bodies" can give a more powerful affidavit than someone who says "He told me he say those bodies".

If not, these alleged reports are very interesting.

(Gosh Jim!!! We learned this the first week of Bigfoot 101 for hell sakes! Where's yer brain?)

And another thought..why elk in one pile..bear in another..and creature x in another...surely they had already been counted for some obscure governmental reason?

Those emplyees would have to exist before you could interview them about it.

That part never made any sense to me either.

I think the entire story is bull . The very thought that the NG would snap to like that and spend months collecting carcasses and burning them just to be sanitary is absurd. Why?

Because these are the same people who weren't able to get it together and find a map showing how to get to the city of New Orleans. And once they found out where New Orleans was located, they could not figure out what to do..or where the money was going to come from to pay for it.And as far as I know..here it is over a half year later and nothing has changed.
And yet..the NG was swarming the St. Helens area collecting elk bodies by the hundreds within days of the explosion. Yeah right!
And just how would stacking carcasses in individual piles allow for a pre-disaster census? You are just picking up carcasses which are observable on the surface...not the majority of animals who would be still buried under tons of ashes.

Sorry. This is just a different urban myth people have fallen for.

My rebuttal to that would be that :

1) just because TODAY'S government can be inefficient and/or incompetent does not mean that this has ALWAYS been the case, nor that it will continue to be the case in the furture.

2) I never said it would be a particularly ACCURATE census. I simply said I found it reasonable that some FS bureaucrat said "Hey, since we're going to all this effort anyways, lets do a "head count" on what we bring in. Not the most accurate data, but it's data, and a chance to salvage SOMETHING from this mess."

I conceed to both of your points, as they are fair ones!

But I still believe the whole thing is a myth...unless someone comes up with some kind of documentation...or even a living eye witness, then this one ranks right up there with any alien abduction story. Except this time..the human's did the abduction.

Fair enough. Though, I hate to say it, I also have to agree that the chances of EITHER showing up are pretty slim. IF these events happened, the people who knew in the FS would be under all sorts of NDAs, likely as not, and the paperwork would be classified to some extent (if it weren't simply "lost" when the project was done).
