When it comes to Bigfoot research one can't ignore that strange feeling that they're being watched
or followed in the forest. Many of us know that Bigfoots "own the forest" and they see you coming long;before you see them. That's why they have the advantage in the "spy vs spy" game of Bigfoot research.
Nobody describes this better than Tom Powell (ThomSquatch) in is blog where he describes his own experience tracking Bigfoot and how much of it is really nothing more than 'intelligence gathering'. His blog post reminds me of experiences I have had in the forests and also those of fellow researcher Chris Noel, author of Impossible Visits where he realizes Bigfoot lives closer to his home than he had previously realized.
Here's an excerpt from Tom Powell's blog (I've been given permission by him):
As was suggested in a previous blog post, bigfoot researchers are basically spies. We wish we could do science, we try to do science, but most of what we end up doing is a lot closer to 'intelligence' gathering. Well, there's one potentially disturbing but well known fact in spy circles: it's spy vs. spy all the way. While you are spying on the rogue elements, who ever they are, they will be most certainly be spying right back. That includes the sasquatch.
It gets better. The biggest surprise of my entire experience in the strange world of bigfoot research was the realization that, while I was attempting to study 'them', they had been studying me. They knew where I lived and they made that fact perfectly clear.
Done laughing yet? Good. Allow me to explain. It all began when I was studying the habituation claims of Allen and April Hoyt at their residence outside Onalaska, Washington. I was the lead researcher but it was a team effort and we at BFRO had cameras and video systems on the site, and I was spending a lot of time working on equipment and just hanging out in the woods at this site some 100 miles from my own home in Oregon.
Once, I spent a particularly long summer night in the Hoyts' woods after a spate of eyeball sightings by the residents. (more)
