Bigfoot TIW 346: Marine Corps Detachment Comes Across Bigfoot

In this episode of Bigfoot Terror in the Woods Sightings and Encounters, hosts W.J. Sheehan and KJ Sheehan dive into a series of compelling Bigfoot accounts, beginning with a dramatic river rafting sighting in Idaho's Nez Perce National Forest. Gregory Pinto and his companions witnessed a large, blackish creature performing odd, rhythmic movements on a rock ledge, confirming their belief in a genuine Bigfoot encounter. The episode then shifts to a chilling military account from Marine veteran Gary Crichton, who, during a night training exercise in the early 2000s, observed a towering, hair-covered figure standing on a forest trail in front of an armored vehicle detachment. The creature showed no fear and vanished into the woods—eventually prompting a surprising revelation years later when Crichton encountered his former sergeant at a bar, who casually confirmed the existence of multiple Bigfoot sightings on military bases. The hosts also explore the real-life apex predator of the Canadian Rockies: Bear 122, known as 'The Boss,' a legendary 30-year-old grizzly bear with a scarred face, a history of surviving a train collision, and a reputation as a dominant, cannibalistic force in Banff National Park. The episode closes with listener appreciation, a heartfelt request for a signed book, and a reminder to always carry more firepower than you think necessary when venturing into the wild.
