Participant #1:
Bigfoot sasquatch, yeti yaron, Yowie, many different names, but we're always talking about the same guy, the big guy. Some call it the north American sasquatch. Some people call it bigfoot, but it's always the same. Always the same upright bipedal, seven to nine foot tall, sometimes even bigger, depending on the accounts. It's always the same guy. It's always the same creature. We have eyewitnesses, we have footprint castings, we have video, and we still don't have answers. So here we are again on the trail of the big guy. Whether we're willing to accept that yet again on this earth as it has been in history before. We are possibly walking with another upright primate, just like neanderthal did with early homo sapiens, just like many, many other hominids did in the history of this world. Is he out there? I don't know. I'm starting to wonder. I came into this whole thing with a very, very strict feeling towards this subject. How is it possible? How could that be? There's no way. But the more I dug and the more I found, there's this little voice in the back of my head, and that little voice sometimes says, I wonder, bigfoot, sasquatch, yeti yowie, whatever you want to call him, he might be out there. He might be closer than you think. You are back on the Kentucky X files podcast with me and Tyler. And today we're going to be talking about some sightings that have happened pretty close to home right here in Kentucky. A lot more than we expected to find, if at all. Any and some of these accounts are some of them are believable. Some of them are so wild, they're unbelievable. But if you pay attention with us, there's a pattern that happens in these sightings and a pattern I've been noticing for a while, and I'll touch on that later. But for now, Tyler, Denny, we are back on the trail of the big guy. What do you think it goes to show, like, the trail for this guy? It will never go cold. No. He's leaving us evidence everywhere. He always leaves us some type of evidence, but he just physically just won't stand still and take that freaking photo with somebody. I don't know if anybody would like to take the photo with him. That'd be scary, right? Absolutely. I've found a lot my research spans not just Kentucky, but all the way over to India. And when I went into India, it had nothing to do with the sasquatch. I just want to put that on the record. It had to do with another large basically another large predator. And there was something I was just dying to know about this solitary predator was, how hard is it to get a picture of a tiger? Guess what? I found it's somewhat difficult. Yeah, it really is. I didn't realize that. Are you trying to kind of link this with the pictures to that's the reason why we can't get a picture since it's kind of similar. It's so hard to get a picture of a tiger in the wild. So what's the chances of us getting a picture for Bigfoot? Well, okay, so in 2015, a Korean photographer went into a place called the Suyong Park, right? And he basically spent six months every year searching for tigers. Right. The type of tiger was Siberian. It's a pretty well known tiger, probably the biggest of all of them. They're usually right around 10ft long, if you could imagine that. It's a lot bigger than your everyday house cat and probably a lot more startling. But he was trying to get a specific set of pictures, and what he wanted was he wanted to see the relationship between a mother tiger and her kittens. Right. You think this isn't like an 800 pound animal that's bright orange, white and black, right. And it's in basically a jungle setting. I'm being very simple about my description of their habitat, but it's a lot of foliage. And he came up empty handed more often than not because of how difficult it was for him to go out into the wild and spot a bright orange and white animal that's 10ft long. I understand that this is not a primate we're talking about, it's a feline. But if an upright ape lives in America,

Participant #1:
the amount of vegetation it would need to be a vegetarian would be insane. And I frankly just don't think there's enough vegetation growing wild out there. Edible vegetation approves that many calories for what people are describing as a seven to ten foot tall primate. But if you change gears there for a second and you switch it over to, well, what if this thing is more omnimorous? What if he likes to eat meat sometimes? Or what if he's 80%, a meat eater, and then scavenges the rest? Well, now you're talking, because we have more whitetailed deer than anywhere. We have elk, we have deer, we have mule deer. We have so many types of prey animals that if you were walking around the woods and you were an 800 pound primate, you've got your pick of what you wanted to eat. All you had to do is stay on the game trails. And that's a lot of times where we find the most astonishing evidence of the sasquatches on the game trails throughout North America. So the idea that even I had was, well, why don't we have a damn picture of this thing? I mean, if it's this big and it's out there, why don't we have a picture? So that was stuck in my head for a long time until I came upon a website that was full of wildlife photographers. And when they described some of these beautiful, vivid colored creatures that they go looking for and how difficult it is for them to find it, and I thought, well, okay, the tiger. This is a bright orange and white and black animal, and it takes six months to track one down. In the wild, he should stick out like a sore thumb, but he doesn't. And then when they do find one, they take hundreds of pictures because they don't know if they're going to get another chance. So anybody out there listening to if you see a cell phone picture, go easy on them. It might not be as easy as you think to get a shot of it. Imagine the adrenaline going through your system, the nervousness of seeing something that you just never believed in, and here it is in front of you. And if you have the resolve to even pull your cell phone out and try to take a picture of it, I commend you. I'm not sure if I would be able to. So honestly, there's some pictures out there that I've seen, I know you've seen, too, where the picture is pretty compelling. It's clear. And the really clear, compelling pictures are almost instantly shut down as fakes. But I believe if we search enough, we're going to figure out which ones are the real ones.

Participant #1:
Yeah. There's so many encounters with this creature, like eyewitness accounts. Majority of them probably don't have any kind of physical evidence, like pictures, audio, or any of that nature, because you want to say, like, half of these people, they're not ready for this. Even if they were ready, I feel like deep down, if you're looking for Sasquatch, you kind of have in the back of your head that maybe he's not real. He's totally not real. And then when it finally comes and it makes this science fiction or whatever kind of mythical creature that you think it is real, you're not going to take a good picture at all. I believe that. I just don't think that it would be possible to take a clear picture unless you're fully invested in this. If you're a photographer. My wife's a photographer. If she was fully convinced that Sasquatch was out there, and she went out there to capture a picture, and she went into it 100%, that she was going to try to get a picture, I believe that she could get a picture. But you take me in the same situation and put me out there in that same spot with my cell phone, I'm not so sure I'm going to get you the picture you're looking for.

Participant #1:
I just really don't think that we're going to see compelling evidence on a blurry cell phone. But they've had people out there with high end cameras, like the ones that they use for photographing animals. Right. I've seen countless videos of them saying, like, all this is what I have. But still, that entails. That okay. Most of these, like, you see all this gear that they'll have. Most people, if they're going to take, like, those wildlife photographers, they have giant lenses that are probably like I can't tell. I know they're quite a bit heavy. And plus they're expensive too. So even if you are looking for that, you're still going to come, like, be protective of your equipment. So they normally stay back. That's why they have those cameras, those types of lenses, so they can do it as a safe distance and take pictures. So with those kinds of lenses and putting yourself in that position, you have to kind of find yourself a fortified place and take your pictures. But to even get to use that type of camera, the highend camera, you're putting yourself still in his kind of in that creature's territory. I'm just saying, for it to be this stealthy, I don't care how long you've been in these woods, since you walked, like since you could walk or crawl, whatever, that animal lives in that forest, so it knows when you step foot in there before you even know that you're actually planning on going in. Absolutely. So with that being said, it's odd. Does it know that what people are doing? Or is it that scared or just cautious of us? That's why we can't get a decent picture? Does it see us? I feel like over the years of seeing these, especially if you're putting your mindset in the Sasquatch or bigfoot's eyes and you're sitting here and you're an animal, like a primate of some sort with some intelligence, and you're looking around and you see this other creature with this thing in his hand, and he just like, that thing is dead now. It just did something from that end to that and it basically killed it. It knows what death is. So I'm thinking that it's like, it's like seeing that, okay, these beings have something about them. They don't know what they're holding yet. We all know it's a gun, it's shooting an animal, and it's like, what kind of powers does these things have? Just like how everybody has these weird ideas of sasquatch has its own frequency and he can go in and out of different dimensions.

Participant #1:
Their mind is probably racing just as fast as ours. Yeah, because I feel like people are not giving them their credit. I feel like if they're real, I really believe that they're at that point where they're intelligent, but not as intelligent as you think they are. I feel like they're intelligent in their environment. If you take them out of that, I don't think they'll last long, but you keep them in their habitat, they know the rules of their land, of their area. So that's kind of like where I'm at with it. I feel like they're just they're visual people, like creatures they saw. They probably seen it countless through the years and just they see us as a threat because we can literally by holding this, I guess they would consider it like a stick or something, and they can kill something far away. Like they probably think that we're magic of some sort. I don't know. So that's kind of like something strange. Something strange, and we shouldn't be in their area. But I'm starting to wonder about that very thing. The subject of the Sasquatch is possible territory. I'm really starting to wonder now. On Discord, I just sent over an image to you, which is two different maps of the United States. One is basically a map of the most condensed missing persons, and the other map is basically our cave systems here in the United States. And if you look over where we're at, it is heavily condensed. Yeah, I've seen a similar picture, too. This kind of goes back. I actually got this picture on a form from people for the Hollow Earth theory. I think that's what all these missing people are going through. But that's here or there, that's a different story. But yeah, even taking that off the table, just where we are, Kentucky wise, since we have the largest cave system,

Participant #1:
there's not that many big sightings here. I've seen a couple written down here. There scattered all over the place. But where the high end? A lot of spots that they've said that they've seen them multiple times, like over ten to 20 times. They're not close together. The counties are splits, like they're far in between. Yeah, there's only a couple of counties that actually considered, like they haven't had any kind of sighting reports. Yeah, that makes me wonder because there's gaps between the high end sightings. With that being said, there's like two high end I think there were two big counties. It was kind of like the I want to say the western side of Kentucky. I think it's called Bullets and Anderson. There's a county between it, but I can't remember the county between it, and it actually has barely any sightings. But I should try to figure if I can look that up, that county up. If it's more like farmland, it's like, wide open. I can see that them jumping back and forth, and they're not seeing them between that county because there's not that many people there. You get what I'm saying? It's easier to travel through that town, that county, than it is somewhere else. Possibly the distances between these sightings, and there's large blank periods. You notice that where you'll have a sighting, you could mark it on a map, and then months or maybe even years ago by, and then another sighting will happen. And it always makes me think the same thing, like, well, how do we draw a line through this? And how much forest area are we going to be looking at? If we did, I just found out something. Not as big of a story, I wouldn't say, but it was. Let's see if I can bring it up here. In June, in Tremble County, Kentucky, there was a creature that the locals were calling the Thing. A lot of people claim to have seen it. They saw it looking into windows of people's homes. They saw it even kill a calf. The whole community was in on this. They were in there's. Even Sasquatch enthusiasts still in the county today, still searching, and they actually collected hundreds of footprint cast, even blood and hair. And the hair was tested. The blood was tested. When they got the test back, they got a mixture of human DNA and another thing that they could only classify as an unknown primate. It comes back really, really close related to our own DNA when they try to run it through the database of known creatures. And to me, that's wild. There's people who saw it. There are people who still think it's there. And that's a place called Bedford, Kentucky, in Trimmer County, and I think it's pretty amazing. And it spawned a whole generation down there of bigfoot hunters. Jump over to Salt Fork. Salt fork. There's another pretty well known sighting there. That was many years later. Honestly, it's crazy. Look at the amount of sightings that were reported around the Mammoth cave land between the lakes. But when I researched Land between the lakes, I found something that I wasn't exactly looking for. There's quite a bit more dog man reports in Land between lakes. Then there is sanskatch. So I wonder about that. I've not really sunk my teeth fully into the dog man yet, but I'm wondering no pun intended, but yeah, that's another thing, too. I've seen a lot more encounters with the dog man around in these parts then I have heard about the sasquatch. What I'm trying to think is, are these sightings actually, like, all of them? Are they Sasquatch, or is it actual dog man? It's hard to actually say. Oh, yeah. I actually found it's between 1994 and 2014. Bigfoot sightings in Kentucky counties. I sent it to you at discord. You'll see, the two dark red ones are the two highest sightings. They have above 26 to 27 sightings in that area. And they have this little gap. I think it's

Participant #1:
Spencer. I can't read that in Nelson. Nelson county. Between the two? Yeah. Wow. That's pretty crazy. Yeah, they're very light sightings between those two, but they have between these two county, and they're really like they're not that crazy. They're not big county. Wow. I'm looking at Boone County. Six to ten sightings In Boone county alone. That's pretty wild.

Participant #1:
Look at that territory there. There's so much room. There's so much room to move around. If you take one simple equation and you apply it to this,

Participant #1:
it almost validates the whole thing just with one little equation. And that is, imagine if there's only 25 total active Sasquatches in the state of Kentucky. Yeah. Now take 25 of them and spread them across this. And then imagine the movements, like, how long it would take for one to get to the next county, to get across the state, or wherever he's going, he or she and maybe I'm estimating high. Half that make it, I don't know, twelve sasquatches? Ten. Yeah, if you've only got a handful of them and now you're getting into the realm of well, not many people are going to have a real solid eyewitness account because there's just simply not that many of them. I don't believe that there's this massive population of them walking around. I know some people do, but I personally don't believe it. I've seen some estimates. Some estimates that I've seen were upwards of like 3500 to 4000 possible sasquatches condensed in the Pacific Northwest alone. And I just simply don't believe that. There's just no way I mean, look at the deer population. Go walk in the woods and try to find a deer, you know what I mean? The only time you're going to find a deer is when you happen to cross one while they're doing something else. Yeah. And that's go into the woods looking for one. Just walk into the woods looking for one. You're probably not going to see one every now and again if you get lucky. But there's a massive population of them. So you're going to run into one. You're going to run into one a lot more frequently. But this thing I'm not so sure. I'm just not so sure it's going to have a population that massive. So when I look at this map you've sent me here, all I see is to my mind I'd say 25, 30 tops. And that's being very generous. But what I'm saying, if you're saying that that's true and stuff, what is up with these two? The one county though is it like which one? The two heavy ones. There's only two big ones, like big sighting ones that have over 26 to 27 sightings in each of them. What are the counties I need to save this image? 1 second. Let's say the first one is called oh, there we go. Bullet county and Anderson. Yeah. Bullet county and Anderson. Why are they so heavily why are they so heavily what is about that place? Is it could it be that these counties had some sightings and then it became started to be a hotspot so people started making some hoaxes and stuff of that nature? Well, let's take a look at Bullet County. Let's do some research on it. Let's see what we got here. Bullet county population $74,000 county CD. Sheppardville let's see here. Geography. Let's take a look. 300 sq. Mi 297 sq mi the land of 3.2 sq. Mi water is 1.1% county is located for western. Wonder if this is considered a rural or what. It looks like it's a really heavily rural area. Yeah, I found one sighting that shows a couple of pictures in Anderson. It shows two people looking at a tree that's down and it's broken. And they showed that the person standing next to it, it's a decent size up and the brake is but it's not consistent of what they I remember how they said that the brakes are not it doesn't look like they pushed it over. You get what I'm saying? Yeah. It's more of a twist, right? This one does not show a twist on it. It shows, like, a clean break, but it's like a high up break. Here's an interesting little thing I found

Participant #1:
here. The first inhabitants of the land that would become Bullet County were Paleo Indians who entered North America approximately 11,500 years ago. These people, whose ancestors traced back to the Eastern and Central Asia, were nomadic. They were hunters and gatherers whose remains have been discovered near area mineral springs, or salt licks, where such big game as mammoth, bison and groundsloth once gathered. Native Americans were their descendants, including the Shawnee people, who probably considered this region part of their homeland and certainly valued it as a hunting ground. Now, I wonder if it's still a hunting ground, but it says here that the area is littered with mineral sorry, nutrient rich salt licks, similar to our own big bone lick. That might be an interesting fact. I don't know. Maybe we won't want to make a note of that. Here. Bullet county salt Lakes nutrient Ridge. I sent you that picture of the brink of the tree. Okay. Is this from this is from Anderson County. Okay. Anderson county. Wow. Jesus. Peace. That would take a hell of a push. Yeah, but it doesn't look like the normal break. I really wish he would have actually stood next to it and took it instead of even if he's, say, on the short side of not being average, probably 5658. And it still looks like it's about six foot where the first six foot six, two. So where the break starts. Right. So even if that with that all that, like whoever had to do that would have had to be at least seven, close to eight. I would say seven seemed kind of reasonable. Right. I'm bringing up Google Earth right now to take a closer look at Bullet County. I just want to get a good idea of what the land layout is, if I can here. I really want to see how much forest area there is around, and I want to see if there's like a natural kind of landlock where to get through this area. Oh, wow. Oh, my God. Okay, I'm going to send you a screenshot real quick here for those at home. I'll put this on our website. I'm taking a screenshot of Bullet County, and what I'm seeing is basically a cluster of basically homes, towns, things like that, and a mass, extensive forest area. So I could see anything coming out of the deep. Forest from the west is going to run into some kind of people to the east. I'll show you what I mean. Let me send this over. This is a screenshot of posting that I just took, and I'll put that on our blog, on our website. But if you take a look there to the west of Bullet County right there where that marker is in the middle. Look at all that, especially up there west of Brooks. That looks like a really dense forest. Yes, the Jefferson Memorial Forest. So I wonder if we might find something from that, something that has to do with Jefferson Memorial Forest. If you think about it, too, like how I was saying, the way that this goes where Bullet County is right to the next, it should be Nelson and I think Spencer County. Those are the ones that don't have too many sightings. And that's to the east of this. And look at that area. That's almost wide open area. There's really not that much to it. Bullet county is just straight. It looks like one road goes down the middle of it and then the left and right are almost nothing but

Participant #1:
forest. Yeah, probably like farmlands. Yeah, it seems like to the west there's lots of forests. To the east, it's heavily populated. Let me go back to the map that you sent and see where the next logical step would be. North into Jefferson,

Participant #1:
I don't know. But then over there in Anderson, it gets dense again. So I'm going to jump over to Anderson okay. And see what we're looking at. I wonder if I can make a marker here. And let's do a little I know there's got to be a tool here for making a mark. Yep, there is. Okay, starting point.

Participant #1:
Okay. There's Lexington.

Participant #1:
Okay,

Participant #1:
let's find Anderson County. Anderson County, Kentucky is right there. Okay. So we have a straight line into Anderson County. And Anderson County looks to be a mixture of farmland. The way the land is laid out, it looks like a bunch of fields, farms, things like that. Not very many main highways going through it until you get over into the Lawrenceburg area. You know what I noticed here, though, is if you draw a straight line like I have here, you will see another holy shit. Another state park. Taylorsville State Park in primitive camping area right on the path there. So that straight line, though, not real sure. Not real sure on this. Let me measure it.

Participant #1:
We're talking a measly distance of 20 miles between the two. I would put that as a pretty reasonable path. That seems like a pretty reasonable path between the 220 miles. That ain't nothing. I mean, if your strides are 48 plus inches, I really feel like you could do 20 miles pretty easily. Especially if you're just walking. You ever notice that like every video you see, it's just kind of walking it's not really not really in a hurry. Just kind of not really loafing, but not hustling either. Okay, here's another interesting thing. That straight line follows the Salt river. Holy crap. Okay, let me take a screenshot of this and show you this. See what you think of that? Now, to me, it would seem pretty reasonable to say that these two places are the yellow line, by the way, is where the Salt River winds through it. But that Salt River runs pretty evenly with that line from Shepherdsville, and it connects both of them. The Salt River connects Shepherdsville to Taylorsville. What do you think of that? That's the beginning of a path, man. I mean, okay, let's say Salt River, Kentucky, Bigfoot. Let's see if anybody's even seen anything caught on camera. Okay, here it is. Look. I just found one. This looks like a Facebook link here. Let's see. Recent bigfoot sighting. This was July 30, 2020. Says here that the Salt River has a very rich history of bigfoot encounters stretching all the way from the Ohio River to Anderson County, the mecca of bigfoot sightings. Let me go back up, and I'm going to kind of skim the story a little bit, because I don't want to I know this is somebody else's story. I don't want to plagiarize or anything, but it says here they received a phone call on July 24, 2020, from a concerned elderly lady. On July 17, at about 10:30 p.m.. She took her little dog outside one last time for the evening. She was standing just outside her door with a dog on a short leash. It was a dark night. However, her porch lights were on, as well as her neighbor's porch lights. All of a sudden, in front of her, about 70ft away, a huge creature jumped up on the embankment next to the road. She went on, to quote, it landed on all fours, and then it stood straight up. The strangest thing was, my little dog is a biting dog, and everybody knows it. But he didn't make a sound, just stood there. The creature suddenly took off across the neighbor's yard on all fours. It didn't look like it was using its front legs at all because they were just flapping. I could see the long black hair on its head blowing in the wind as it ran. And, boy, he really did fly out of there. He was really fast. She went on to explain that it didn't seem like it was using its front legs to run. It was a blur of hair and seemed like the front arms were just flailing around. It would only touch the ground every now and again. Its back looked very wide. She wasn't scared at the time, but she is now. She went on to claim, now that I think about it, I don't know where it went. It could have easily caught me if it wanted to. And what if my dog lunged at it? What if it gets inside somebody's house? I don't want it to hurt someone, and I hope doesn't I hope someone doesn't hurt it. I wish there was just a way to capture it. She went on to say that it looked to. Her like a younger creature. The man who reported this stood in the same place that she claimed the creature did. Pretty wild tree right outside of her home, right next to the road. Crazy. Well, there we have it. There there's a link right there. To be honest, anybody listening to this, they might think, like, well, this is a grab. I didn't know anything about these particular sightings until Tyler brought them to me. So my thought was if he finds something, he'll tell me and we'll talk about it here. And I'm going to bring up Google Earth and start plotting kind of a course. I want to see where they're going. We kind of want to see if there's a real definitive, like, are they staying in this area, or are we seeing some kind of, like, is this their home or are they moving on? Are people seeing something different or something of that nature? And plus, the map I sent you, the map that shows all the counties in Kentucky and all the sightings, because there's some of these sightings that will show, like, there's a group of them that have no sightings at all. Right. And then randomly surrounding it have one to five and then six to 1011 to 20. And miraculously, these don't have what is in these counties that no one wants is no one reporting it? No one wants to. I'll give them that. A lot of people don't want to come forward on this stuff. Oh, no. Even if they do see something, because no one wants to be called crazy or a liar, I understand somebody like people out there. There are people out there going to blow smoke up your butt. Right. I'm looking at this, like, the Salt River, the bigfoot sighting in Shepherdsville that you were talking about.

Participant #1:
Where does he turn to next? Which way does he go? There's forest in every direction. From the map that you sent, it looks like up into Jefferson. There's more condensed sightings there, but then we have another hot zone all the way to the east next to West Virginia. Yeah. The castle.

Participant #1:
Yeah. Carter. Carter county. Yeah, I see the Carter County. You notice, too, that if you draw a straight line from west to east through the state, you could almost hit four really heavy sightings areas. Five. Sorry. Okay. Like you were saying, from Bullet to Jefferson to kind of Shepard or Shelby, but there's still all these other ones that show that they have it, but granted, they could have sightings, but they just don't want to sell. Or it's so much open area that there wasn't going to be a sighting at all, even if they like, because it would be too concealed. Let's see. Let's go into the next okay, so going directly east, we get into Lexington. Top of Lexington right there. Yeah, we're getting right into Lexington. And I mean, there's a horse park, but that seems risky.

Participant #1:
Honestly, why not turn southeast and just follow the Kentucky River? Let me do a Google search here. Let's see if there's anybody river bigfoot sightings.

Participant #1:
Okay. When you type in that, it goes straight to the shots fired at Mammoth Cave. So where is Mammoth Cave relative to this? I can't remember. That's so terrible. We live in Kentucky, and I don't know what county Mammoth Cave is. Let's see. Mammoth Cave. Mammoth Cave is southwest, and we're looking at almost a perfect south south bound from Shepherdsville. I mean, it's almost a straight line. So if we look from Bullet County down to where are we at here? See mammoth Cave.

Participant #1:
Yeah, I mean, you would think that this would be another hot spot, especially the cave system. I mean, the cave system, it's a gigantic forest. Why don't we see that on that other map? Why don't we see a huge you know what I mean? Right? Why don't we see a huge, dense lighting map, a heat map right there. I mean, we're really not we're seeing about average we're not seeing this massive amount of sightings coming out of Maimuth Cave. But clearly there's tons of reports from Maimuth Cave. So it makes me wonder. It really does. The most prominent thing I'm seeing about that map, and I realize it spans to 2014 and there's going to be new stuff. I mean, there's going to be newer sightings after 2014, but oh, yeah, for sure. Why not? Why don't we see a dense population in the Mammoth Cave? The one on there that really makes me wonder is Ohio County. Yeah. Hio, county. What's up with that? Ohio county. Bigfoot. Okay, here we are. Maybe not. Okay. I should have been more specific. It just took me straight to Ohio. Ohio County, Kentucky. Bigfoot. Okay. Ohio County, Kentucky. Bigfoot reports. Let's check this out. What do we got here? Anything? Here we go. I got a couple here, too. Okay. It seems like it's deriving themselves around the highway 69. You're looking at the fisherman. Bigfoot frightens fisherman, because that one says it's close to highway 69. Also it says this guy was fishing the south side of the river.

Participant #1:
Yeah, let me go to I'm going to make a little line here. I'm also saving this map, too, so we can share it back and forth. Okay. Rough River, Ohio County. Okay, here we go. Tributary in Kentucky. Let's see where that's at. I'll be damned if there's our line. Is it okay. Rough river. I'm looking at it right now. It's a pretty small little river, but it leads to some pretty I'll send this over to some pretty heavily forested area. I'm also saving these on the discord so I can pull them and put them on our website. Check that out. That's that little green, windy line that's right there next to that gigantic forest is the Rough River. And we got

Participant #1:
the makings of a pattern here. Let me add a little marker here to this one rough river, and the story took place in march 20, 3020.

Participant #1:
Okay. So now I'm starting to get the beginnings of a decent little pattern here. So what I'm seeing in common with these three sightings. Is they are all near a pretty prominent water supply, and they stay really close to it.

Participant #1:
Wow. That's pretty amazing. That means that you could find any kind of river. Or any kind of river or tributary. And the rough river, wow. It really stretches on. Like it really goes. I'm following it all the way up here. Does it connect to where ma'am of cave is, by any chance? Don't know, but it looks like One way or another, you can connect this water supply all the way up to

Participant #1:
salt river. I'm going to find out if salt river and rough river actually meet somewhere. Let me find out here. Well, encounter actually was almost a year old, but the way that he described it, actually, he said it was at least 8ft and a half tall. At least. It was looking like a really blurry, Muscled up man, completely covered in hair all over. In my spotlight, the creature's hair was a dark reddish brown color. It had great big red eyes, glowing red eyes. Big, like the size of a golf ball. Last thing I saw was that this creature was covered in mud. All over his hips and legs. We have been in flooding conditions here for weeks, and the ground Is covered in mud. I assume this was why he looked like that.

Participant #1:
Jeez. Pretty wild.

Participant #1:
I can't find anything that connects the rough river and the salt river.

Participant #1:
Let's see if there's somebody who has a map. Okay, here we go. All right. So there's the ohio river.

Participant #1:
Wow. Yeah. This is crazy. Okay. Wouldn't that be a coincidence?

Participant #1:
Okay. There's cumberland river. I think we're going to definitely find something in cumberland. I just really feel like yeah, I feel like that's just like, asking for a sighting.

Participant #1:
Just like cumberland.

Participant #1:
Okay, here's rough river and tributary streams leading northeast.

Participant #1:
We got connection. They're tributaries. They're not massive Flowing rivers, but they're tributaries. So they can reduce all the way down to, like, a creek and all the small river. But they definitely connect. It would be enough to connect them as a pathway. I mean, who's to say that sasquatch isn't used in the rivers to navigate? I mean, there's lots of food. Lots of food, garbage, you name it. Be like walmart.

Participant #1:
I don't know if we're allowed to say walmart on here. Walmart, if you're listing. Don't take it personal.

Participant #1:
I got a southwest towards northeast pathway here running this river. Okay. This might be A little stretch here. There's two sightings Back to back in ohio. One was in march of 2020, and there was another one in the winter of 2017. I know it's kind of a big stretch, but it was in the same county, but it will look like it was going the way that they put it. If I look it on the map. One was in Hartford Township, I guess. I don't know if it was a township, but Hartford. And the other one was going south west, kind of an angle towards, I think it's Central City. Okay, so it was clearly on a southwest path. It looked like it was going southwest. That's kind of like the angle that was going from Hartford down to Central City. Oh, my God. Dude. Hartford is literally a rock throw southwest from Rough River, where the other sighting was. Yeah, actually the Central City and Hartford are between each other, and that's three years apart from this. That's only 8 miles away. That's 8 miles away. Let me get that date from you again. Well, the other one only gives me the year. It just said winter, so I guess you would consider December. It didn't give you the year? Yeah, it only gave me the year. It only gave me the year. What was the year? Winter. 2017. And then the kind of newest one is almost a year old, is in March, same place, 2020. This one was actually in Hartford. This one is considered in Hartford.

Participant #1:
This one was considered it was near Central City. And the Hartford one said it was in Hartford. It was closer to highway 69. This one, it said it was close to highway 85 to highway 65. Central City. Let me find that real quick. And yet again, we are southwest of the last sighting that you just gave me. Dude, we have a trajectory. I wonder what's going on. This might be just a coincidence in a way. We might be catching a trail of a certain one. I'm good with that. Just one is all I need. Let me send you another screenshot here so you can see this. I'm just going to call them balloons. The blue balloons are the pathway. If I could draw a line on it, that'd be really nice. But I don't know if it's going let me oh, I can't. Okay, you do that.

Participant #1:
I don't have your fancy tools over there. We might have to start making this a YouTube so people can see this path come together. I don't know if we should do that, man. I have weird stuff on my computer. Wow. We'll work on it. Okay. Just make sure you turn it off. Yeah, there were jokes, y'all. Okay, I'm going to send you a screenshot of this. Well, for everybody listening. I know you can't see this, but we'll put it up on the website, www.kyxmiles.com so you won't be left out. All right, so let me put this take a look at this. Tell me this isn't wild. Look at that path.

Participant #1:
Wow. Isn't that interesting? Well, okay. I'm guessing the top part would be

Participant #1:
well, he started to go west and then he just made his just took a southwest turn. Like, took a slight left turn and just kept going right.

Participant #1:
Oh, God. Oh, God. What do you got? Okay, we got two possible areas. If we're going over certain. Going southwest by the looks of it. Yeah, sorry, I can't read this. McLean is the next county over, is kind of going a little like, northwest, but it goes into Hopkins. Hopkins. Okay, let me go to Hopkins. Yeah. All right. And we're back on the southwest trajectory again. Holy shit. Okay, you got to take that with the grain of salt here, because we have one of the biggest UFO sightings in that area. Well, not the sightings, but the little green people, so we got to weed through that first. I totally respect the aliens, but they're going to have to stay out of this for now. Well, that's what I'm saying. We need to make sure that because you said that, you're like, oh, got something now. But I was like, oh, man, I know. That's a huge place. Do you have a date on this one? Give me 1 second. Let me see if I can find some stuff. So essentially, ladies and gentlemen, we are putting together a pathway. We have a path here, and you can check it out. If you go to www.kyxfiles.com and look for yourself, it'll be right there on the main page. And as usual, thank you for subscribing and listening, and we really appreciate it. Make sure if you haven't yet follow and subscribe and like and comment, send us emails. Tell us about yourself. We want to hear it. If you've seen a Bigfoot or you've seen something, let us know. It's. Encounters@kyxfalls.com seemed like a good time for a plug. It's always a good time for a plug.

Participant #1:
Little side note, we just found out that our good friend from the very first episode, lee woods, has gotten his bigfoot, inspired coffee in stock and ready to be in your coffee cup. Check out WOODWALKER. I think it's WOODWALKER products, right? WOODWALKER products. Check out WOODWALKER products. And get yourself a Tshirt or some of that good coffee. I have a T shirt. Awesome. Does he still have any of those handmade sasquatch? Yes, handmade sasquatch stuffed animals. He's got it all. Just check out Lee and definitely check out his YouTube. I'll put a link up there for you guys. Pretty cool stuff. Good guy.

Participant #1:
Okay, I got you another one, man. Did you get a date on that Hopkinsville one or no? Well, that's what I'm saying. I found a city in Hopkinsville, and it's getting you right in your Southwest, man. Okay. It is cold.

Participant #1:
Orton's Gap. Orton's Gap. It's in Hopkins. The date is

Participant #1:
June.

Participant #1:
Sorry. Okay, I found it. Morton's Gap. Yeah. June 2016.

Participant #1:
Okay, got it. Yes. We are back in the southwest trajectory. We could go back to another is a little bit west, but still it still looks like it's going like, from the distance that I'm seeing from central center town to morton's gap, it's kind of still a southwest trajectory. What I'm seeing, too, is yeah, because you can go from central city to morton's gap down to hopkinsville, and if you keep going that way, look what you're leading right into

Participant #1:
just a little bit farther southwest, and you are at kentucky lake and the land between the lakes. Oh, yeah. So, to me, that's a path. That is a clear path. That's a nice path right there. What is northeast, though? What are they going for northeast or yeah. I mean, if they're heading southwest, we know where they're headed. They're headed towards that. Yeah. At least that's for right now. For right now, yeah. I get you. But if they're heading back north and where are they going and why this particular path? Is it just easier? And look at all those possibilities for sightings just from point a to point b. There's possibilities of sightings all the way along this path. Yeah, there's not, like,

Participant #1:
even because this is a strange I know we probably could find some a little bit more between morton's gap and center town. Yes,

Participant #1:
there's possible sightings, but these towns don't look that big. It's a very big farmland Just between those. But another thing, too, is this there's a lake. Green river. Yes, green river lake. Okay. Is that a sighting? No. I was just, like, seeing, like, it started to run between those two sightings. I just kept thinking I was like, oh, if I was an animal, I would want to stay near fresh water, traveling at least, like, somewhere near it. But we could probably find A decent amount.

Participant #1:
I don't know. Maybe this is another thing, too, is that it could be just a natural I can't say a natural thing. Maybe a born thing. This is the path that his parents or her parents just kept going. Just don't want to change it. You don't just typically just change things overnight or something like that. It might be just a thing that he was taught or she was taught. I feel like that's the reason why sightings keep popping up more and more other than the hoaxes, is that they're probably doing the same path since they were a small child, and cities are popping up between these areas, but they don't know what else to do. They just keep doing the same thing over and over for every what reason. Yeah, maybe it was taught to them. I don't know

Participant #1:
that's.

Participant #1:
I have another pretty famous sighting that's still pretty much on our path. The beast in LDL. It's a little bit of an older story. Several reports about around march 20. I'm trying to remember the year it happens. Let me look it up. We have the internet at our fingers. Beast of LBL. This is a pretty famous story.

Participant #1:
I can find an exact date,

Participant #1:
find the details.

Participant #1:
The only thing bad about this beast and LBL. Most accounts of the story link back to dog man, not sasquatch. So I'm not really sure what to make of that. But yeah, I mean, at the last one just you sent me, though. We're basically on a crash course with Land between the lakes. The only thing is about land between the Lakes is not exactly easy to get to unless you take a bridge.

Participant #1:
So I'm not real sure about that one. I mean, I imagine it can't be that difficult for a big sales squash to

Participant #1:
everything

Participant #1:
comes back to Beast and LPL sanquatch vocals recorded and land between Lakes. That's pretty interesting.

Participant #1:
Sandy Hook. Where the hell Sandy Hook? I think that's east by Pikeville. Okay.

Participant #1:
I don't know why it's in Ville. It's like Pike County. Here's one. 2012 trig county lake Bartley resort heading back towards the main road that leads to Cadence, Kentucky. About 50 mph. When I saw a deer run across the road and what I thought was a tree next to the road, but it was running. It was taller than the top of my minivan and looked right at me. We passed it in about 3 seconds. I was really not sure what I saw, so I turned around to see if it might have been a tree or something, but there was nothing there. I remember afterwards that it was a large creature, tannish brown fur, maybe seven to 8ft tall and almost neanderthal like brow and flattish nose. It was hard to tell what color the fur was exactly since my headlights were tinted yellow. But my son was in the backseat and he also saw it and commented on it. The animal was running upright along the edge of the road. It seemed to be chasing a deer. Then it run out in front of our band literally seconds before. It kept pace with me for about 3 seconds and then dropped past, then dropped back.

Participant #1:
Pretty wild edge of the main road connecting the Kentucky 68 to Lake Bartley resort. I'm going to look that up, see where they're lake Barley resort is.

Participant #1:
Bartley. Not Bartley.

Participant #1:
Okay. That takes us north. No. Wow. That's directly west of the Hopkinsville. I'm going to go to market just for the sake of having it

Participant #1:
2014. Yeah, because if you actually go back to that map that I showed you yeah.

Participant #1:
If we kept going towards where you're saying there's no sightings in this Cadwell county,

Participant #1:
there's nothing. Just blanked out. It's just blanked out. There's a couple of things like lores, like witches and ghosts. They talk about the land between the lake thing and then they jump back up to that to ohio claims to see bigfoot like creature at Salt Fork. So

Participant #1:
I don't think they're cutting through this place to get to the land between the lakes. And that's like right where it was. Yeah, I would say county's next to it going west. They probably cut to the tip of it, but I think it's

Participant #1:
grinning. All right. I'm checking out a town there right close to where we're at on the map called Dawson spring, and I am not finding anything. There is literally nothing. So Dawson spring. I'm just trying to see if, outside of these lines, where does it stop? Fearsville. That's a name that deserves a look. Let's find out.

Participant #1:
Kentucky. Bigfoot sightings.

Participant #1:
Okay,

Participant #1:
I'm not seeing anything. Where is the hell is sponsor?

Participant #1:
Okay, Spotsville is to the north,

Participant #1:
right next to the green river.

Participant #1:
Okay.

Participant #1:
We have a path, and we have a common denominator. So that's two more things that we have now that we didn't have before. We have possible navigation by water or well, using water as a path, I should say large bodies of water. Okay. Sorry to cut you off there. Yeah,

Participant #1:
can you make sure that we can I think it says Maron marin. M-A-R-I-O-N. Marion. Marion. Marion. Okay. There's a sighting. It's in that one place I was just telling you, Kurtin. It's a city. Lost the report. It was by black burn church road, marion, Kentucky. This was in 2010, and it's going directly west from the one spot that I just told you.

Participant #1:
Is it Blackburnchurchroad? Marion? Yeah, but it's in the county of crittonin. Okay,

Participant #1:
let me see there somewhere. Okay. It's actually kind of more

Participant #1:
slightly north. Yeah, I see it. Okay. Okay, but if you kind of, like, fill up through there, then we start getting into the area of the Ohio river. And then there's Illinois.

Participant #1:
Okay. Blackburn Church Road, Marion, Kentucky. All right, so I'm going to mark this anyway.

Participant #1:
Yeah. Let's see. 2010, you said? Yes. Okay, there's 2010.

Participant #1:
See, that actually follows a western path, though. I mean, it actually makes more sense than a zigzag southwest from before.

Participant #1:
If you're going northeast, it's almost as if you'd be colliding with Lexington. Unless he makes a sharp turn north. Let's find out. Let's see. Lexington, Kentucky. Bigfoot.

Participant #1:
Not seeing anything. It doesn't seem like Lexicon has got any activity. Let's turn north here.

Participant #1:
You could cut east and get to the river. Okay, I'll just do that. Let's just say Kentucky. Well, we know we've got Kentucky river. Bigfoot sightings before, but let's see. Nicholasville.

Participant #1:
So far, nothing.

Participant #1:
So what, does he just disappear once he gets to there? Let me try. Harrisonville.

Participant #1:
Nothing.

Participant #1:
Think I got him. Yes, I got him. We're back in 1999, though. But I'll mark it anyway just so we have a record of it. All right. Crooked river is what we're looking at.

Participant #1:
Are you you backpedaling on this one now? I am. I'm just marketing these because I'm just really curious as to why I'm seeing

Participant #1:
I'm sorry. I'm, like, really curious as to why I'm seeing these in this line. So I'm just marking them, and I'm putting the dates next to them so that I can I just want to go through it and see I see the line, I see the pattern, and I definitely see a behavioral pattern as far as the

Participant #1:
traveling by water. You know what I mean? The only one that doesn't no spots will make sense, too, because the Green River is right next to it. So I'm a bitch, man, they're using the damn rivers. That's their highway. I mean, if you think about it, what we were talking about earlier, it's not like he's flipping up Google Maps on his phone and looking. That's true. How would he travel? He would use landmarks that he knows, and they always stay by something that's close to water, I guess. I guess you would say. Here's one for you, Supposing. Okay. One or two scenarios. It's one or two individuals traveling in a weird pattern, right. Kind of just following rivers northeast, southwest, or what if you're looking at six or seven different creatures here who just kind of gravitate near big bodies of water?

Participant #1:
Okay. Either way, you'd have something to go on here. You got one possibility is you're looking at multiple creatures, but each of them are sort of solitary and stick to, like I said, big bodies of water. Or you have one individual, and we're looking at the span of his life. We're looking at different points in his life as he traveled. Either way, I think, is pretty odd. Awesome.

Participant #1:
He's not going to get spotted every single time. Okay, look at this. In 2014, I've got him right here.

Participant #1:
I've got him right here at the LBL State Park. Right? Okay. He travels east by I don't got a date on that one, so I'm going to skip up north, northeast. I'll skip the northeast. Two years later, I've got him up here near Morton's Gap. And what do I have right next to me here, I have a gigantic water reservoir. I can get a measurement of this. I'm definitely not going to know the gallons or anything, but I can tell you how big it is, roughly

Participant #1:
looking at a reservoir. That's about a mile. It's about a mile long. That's a lot of water. I've got him on a path there. That's 2016. Now, in 2017, I've got him in Central City right next to

Participant #1:
another big body of water here. In fact, several big bodies of water. And then I have him northeast of there in 2020, yet again, next to another big body of water, the Rough river

Participant #1:
that following spring, I've got even northeast of that, still near the Rough River, and then don't have a date on this one. But again, I have him next to a large body of water.

Participant #1:
So it's interesting. It's definitely interesting. We're seeing something of a pattern. It might be rough, and it might be far fetched right now, but we're getting somewhere with it. They might be different sightings. It might be a different sasquatch. If you want to believe it. It could be dog man, whatever. You really believe what it is, there's some kind of pattern with their moving habits, some kind of animal that's traveling near bodies of water. And you don't have to sit there and believe that it's a sasquatch or any of that, but you got to think, like it has a similar pattern as an animal. Like what an animal does when it goes around. It will stay nearby as a water

Participant #1:
when it travels.

Participant #1:
I'm not a tracker. I wouldn't want you to cut that out. That sounds stupid.

Participant #1:
I don't know animals that well. I feel like you might know a little bit more about them, but I don't know how they navigate or how an animal distinctively, like, okay, I'm going to go this direction, then that direction is it random? But I know animals have migrational patterns. I know, like birds and stuff. They'll go north for the winter or is that backwards? They'll go south for the winter. They'll go south for the winter. Okay. Yeah.

Participant #1:
I think we're getting right around the time we would cut this off for this episode. I'm not so sure we're done tracking the big guy here. Usually at the end of the episode, we'd save some kind of outro. And try to get you to think a little bit about what the episode was about. But all I'm going to say is this we could possibly figure out a path, but we definitely need your help. So if you're listening and you live anywhere near this area or these areas that we're talking about. And you've seen something, let us know. Encounters@kyxfiles.com, visit the website www.kyxfiles.com, let us know. And I think we might be on to something here. I'm not sure, but I see a pattern. It's very loose. It is very loose. It's not refined yet, but I think with your help, it could be. So we appreciate you listing, and we will hopefully figure this out. I don't know. What do you think, tyler? I think we can probably base it or get a little closer as we go. But like you said, we're probably going to need all the help we can get. To try to narrow it down to our area. And then we can probably move further out, maybe possibly to see where they're going. And why are they coming back to these areas? Why are some parts of our state and other states are heavily, like there's heavily sightings and there's some that are not that there might be something wrong with the area or something that they just don't like. Maybe we can figure that out. But we definitely need your help. So totally send us a message with your stories. If you heard of a friend that had a story, just kind of contact us. We'd love to hear it. And just a little disclaimer here. We are not stopping any interviews or something. This is something new that we were thinking about doing because. We've been scouring the internet with all these other people out there with the cryptozoology, and just they do listen to your stories and stuff of that nature, but we kind of wanted to dig deeper into this. We wanted to sink our teeth and actually bring you along the ride on our journey of figuring out what this creature is doing. I just want to let you know that we'll have some guests lined up if you want to come onto the podcast and tell us your story too, maybe it could help us out with our search on here or making a pattern out of it and stuff. So I just want to throw that out there just to make sure no one gets discouraged that we won't be doing what we've been doing. Absolutely.

Participant #1:
We'll keep looking, guys, and hopefully you'll help us. We'll see you soon. Later.
