Speaker 1: Hey you there, thanks for tuning in. You're ready for
Speaker 1: another episode of my big Foot Sighting. All right, then
Speaker 1: let's do this.
Speaker 2: Seen a bunch of run down, no horse towns where
Speaker 2: the church at the backbone, laws and the bow and
Speaker 2: the fasting melodies cove in with the bomb man rose
Speaker 2: with the roos, run deep beyond the nose of the
Speaker 2: busy streets with the songs of the South of su
Speaker 2: Then when I hear the promp porch picking down home
Speaker 2: rhythm bringing out I Don't Run from Banjung music.
Speaker 1: Yeah, if you've had a bigfoot sighting and would like
Speaker 1: to be a guest, please go to my Bigfoot Sighting
Speaker 1: dot com and let me know.
Speaker 3: Big foot sighting happened in Cedar Lake, Manitoba around two
Speaker 3: thousand and twenty one. And my name is Kevin Arrow,
Speaker 3: and I'm from Manitoba here in Canada, and I've always
Speaker 3: been interested in I guess the topic is cryptozoology. I
Speaker 3: guess you could say since I was a kid when
Speaker 3: I was so, I grew up in Winnipeg, Manitoba, but
Speaker 3: I'm originally from a reserve up north College of alan
Speaker 3: Creenam and they're adjacent to Cedar Lake, Manitoba, I mean
Speaker 3: to Cedar Lake, the lake that's or I saw my
Speaker 3: had my sighting. And but when I was a child
Speaker 3: in Winnipeg, I got into a library of a school
Speaker 3: and I got into all kinds of topics and one
Speaker 3: of the interestings, one the interesting one was cryptozoology and
Speaker 3: all that stuff like that, like like sasquatch and all that.
Speaker 3: And the one that got me the most interested was
Speaker 3: seeing Bigfoot with Gimblin Patterson photo. I guess the best
Speaker 3: still a picture of the video he cook And like
Speaker 3: I heard stories of Harry Man, I guess you could
Speaker 3: hear from my grandfather ab lived in the wilderness. And
Speaker 3: I don't even think that my grandfather's generation even knew
Speaker 3: the name of Stassquatch is because that name comes from
Speaker 3: the West coast with the Salors people, I believe, And
Speaker 3: I guess what it depends on which the area you're from.
Speaker 3: There's a different term for the same being, like the
Speaker 3: yeti or yeah we or sasquatch or a bigfoot. But yeah,
Speaker 3: So I became interested in that was because of the
Speaker 3: books I was reading in school, and I became a
Speaker 3: believer in such a such a topic of Sasquatch and
Speaker 3: I grew up in the city, so I barely We
Speaker 3: only went up north twice here in the summer and
Speaker 3: then for Christmas once in a while. But we got
Speaker 3: to uh hear about I guess the stories of Sasquatch.
Speaker 3: I guess you'd say from community members. But this was
Speaker 3: during the eighties, and uh, I know there was one
Speaker 3: story of this gentleman who went out hunting with a
Speaker 3: rifle in this particular area and he ended up coming
Speaker 3: back naked with no gun. Then he didn't want to
Speaker 3: talk about what happened to him. I guess he was
Speaker 3: traumatized by it and he didn't Uh he didn't go
Speaker 3: back hunting after that is but what people say, I
Speaker 3: don't know this man personally, but it was just a
Speaker 3: story whose story that happened in my community of my hometown.
Speaker 3: But where I'm from the that's the uh Seier Lake
Speaker 3: Umocre Nation. There's many people who have who I had
Speaker 3: sightings of Spasquatch. I guess there's uh like my people
Speaker 3: give a little into the history of that. I guess
Speaker 3: a bit. We came from the islands inside Cedar Lake,
Speaker 3: and uh what happened was the provincial government and the
Speaker 3: fifties decided to build it down at the end of
Speaker 3: this Saskatchewan River and Gyda Rapids, Mannesota, and they ended
Speaker 3: up flooding lake into a huge, a bigger lake, and uh,
Speaker 3: our people got flooded out of our the islands we
Speaker 3: still on. And they made a new town called Eastville, Manitoba,
Speaker 3: which they built in the sixties. So in the when
Speaker 3: they made that newly formed town, I guess the highways
Speaker 3: didn't go that high up north past a town called Gibsonville, Manitoba.
Speaker 3: So when they built the dam in Grand Rapids, they
Speaker 3: have to build the highways six further up north to
Speaker 3: reach the dam, and in doing so they have to
Speaker 3: build a highway. Sixty we runs east west, number six
Speaker 3: runs north south. So where they built that number sixty
Speaker 3: highway was a land bridge which is on It's situated
Speaker 3: in between Cedar Lake on the Soffshore, Cedar Lake and
Speaker 3: the north of Blake, Winnipegosis. And it's a very long
Speaker 3: and narrow strip of land. It's like six kilometers wide
Speaker 3: and probably like sixty kilometers long maybe. So my theory
Speaker 3: was growing up that was that's called the land bridge.
Speaker 3: Pretty much it's geological name of that formation, and I
Speaker 3: just had a theory that well, obviously it is anything
Speaker 3: wild that lives in the wilderness would cross during the
Speaker 3: summertime on the land bridge, and that's where they built
Speaker 3: this number sixty highway. And what happened in the after
Speaker 3: that highway was built in the nineteen sixties, that's when
Speaker 3: people from the south started having sightings because they weren't
Speaker 3: there was no highway there. I want for like its
Speaker 3: whole existence, and all of a sudden, the provincial government
Speaker 3: builds a highway right along the whole land bridge. So
Speaker 3: there started to be sightings of Sasquat by people of
Speaker 3: who aren't from our community. So there's one sighting of
Speaker 3: a teacher in the sixties after the highway was built.
Speaker 3: She recorded to the I can't remember if it was
Speaker 3: a Winnipeg Free Press or the Winnipeg for Dune newspapers
Speaker 3: that she saw a big, large, hairy man or whatever
Speaker 3: I monster. And that's that's that. I remember seeing that
Speaker 3: a news article. I can't find it again. I checked,
Speaker 3: but I could probably go into archives and find it.
Speaker 3: Type I really was. But yeah, that's the first, probably
Speaker 3: the first reporting of a Sasquatch in Cedar Lake area
Speaker 3: by non Indigenous person. Yeah, so there's a portage there
Speaker 3: in between the two lakes that indigenous people used. And
Speaker 3: how I got into this topic of us the Sasquatch.
Speaker 3: I wanted to know about the history of Cedar Lake
Speaker 3: pretty much and where my people came from. And I
Speaker 3: discovered that why it was called Cedar Lake was that's
Speaker 3: the only lake or only location in all of Western
Speaker 3: Canada besides the West Coast, that had cedar trees in abundance.
Speaker 3: If the listeners want to look on the like Google
Speaker 3: Earth and they zoomed into Sea Lake and they looked
Speaker 3: at the south shore line. Uh yeah, you could see
Speaker 3: the land bridge I'm talking about. And near the west side.
Speaker 3: Southwest shore line was where the a huge river called
Speaker 3: the Saskatchewan River that flows from like Yukon or I
Speaker 3: remember a farm uh Alberta. I think, all the way
Speaker 3: through the Saskatchewan and through Manitoba, and it goes went
Speaker 3: through Cedar Lake and the most east part of the
Speaker 3: rivers ended at Grod Rapids, Manitoba, and that's where that
Speaker 3: dam was built. But h where the Saskatchewan River met
Speaker 3: Cedar like has created North America's fourth largest inland delta
Speaker 3: at the time. Ah, and what that happened. What happened
Speaker 3: was when the Saskatchewan River was draining h its contents
Speaker 3: and its nutrient rich silk that was gaining since standard
Speaker 3: the last sliced age. I guess all that nutrients and
Speaker 3: the silk created this like environment that supported all a
Speaker 3: rich amount of life. All kinds of wildlife were attracted
Speaker 3: to that delta area and they created a marsh and
Speaker 3: they all at the summer berry marsh. And uh, indigenous
Speaker 3: people were attracted as well, because what happened was that
Speaker 3: delta created so many birds every spring. And uh, what
Speaker 3: happens to the indigenous people were living off of pemican
Speaker 3: all winter, which is pemmican is like like a food
Speaker 3: source that they Indigenous people created out of like buis
Speaker 3: and meat wild berries like blueberries, and rendered that and
Speaker 3: they mixed it and they kept all all winter and
Speaker 3: they could survive off it. I can guarantee you that
Speaker 3: after like six months of eating pemmican, they got somewhat
Speaker 3: sick of it. And each spring when the birds arrived
Speaker 3: and them snow all melted, they all flocked like the
Speaker 3: literally the people flocked to like the birds the cedar lake.
Speaker 3: Uh so they could all eat from yeast pretty much
Speaker 3: from other birds that they caught, and uh and what
Speaker 3: else grew there was like all kinds of like plants
Speaker 3: and trees, and the cedar tree was growing there in abundance,
Speaker 3: and uh what what all that the resources that grew
Speaker 3: there enabled the indigenous people there to to have make
Speaker 3: canoes every year. And they all came from as far
Speaker 3: as like the Arctic and the east, the Three People,
Speaker 3: and the west all the way up to and far
Speaker 3: south as like North Dakota's. They all met there every
Speaker 3: spring and they had product ceremonies and all kinds of
Speaker 3: other engagements and memorials of people who both elders who
Speaker 3: passed in that winter. But what happened was that that
Speaker 3: happened for a while, and so I learned about how
Speaker 3: everyone was attracted to that lake. And so we've had
Speaker 3: stories of sasquatch, but there weren't We didn't call them
Speaker 3: sasquatch until probably recently, but there's stories of latter stories
Speaker 3: of the sasquatch by our people every year. And uh
Speaker 3: so what I did was some something from the hot
Speaker 3: the hot dead I guess he could say of Sasquatch
Speaker 3: activity and see the lake. I created a Facebook page
Speaker 3: called Man of the Sasquatch group. I can't remember what
Speaker 3: it's called, manat to the Sasquatch. Yeah, I can't, but
Speaker 3: I'm trying to promote Sasquatch the topic on different levels,
Speaker 3: like because I did before I get into that, like
Speaker 3: there's like a like I like, I noticed there's different
Speaker 3: levels of this Sasquatch topic. And I guess. I guess
Speaker 3: the first level, I guess is people who don't know,
Speaker 3: they're unaware of it, and I guess the second there
Speaker 3: is people who don't care. And then there's the non believers.
Speaker 3: These people, ah, they don't believe. Even if you showed
Speaker 3: them pictures or video, or even even if you had
Speaker 3: a body like a specimen, they probably wouldn't believe anyways.
Speaker 3: And then there's the scoffers, These people make fun of
Speaker 3: Sasquatch believers. Yeah, and then there's the believers and uh,
Speaker 3: these are people who've never seen seen one, but they
Speaker 3: still believe, and they believe based off of other people's
Speaker 3: stories or they believe off of pictures or videos like well,
Speaker 3: my experience. And then you go from a believer to
Speaker 3: a nowhere. These people are the ones that are in
Speaker 3: a different category. And this category of knowers also is
Speaker 3: sub categorized two people. I guess you could call it
Speaker 3: the first degree. People who saw are closed. The first degree,
Speaker 3: i'd say, were the people who were so close that
Speaker 3: they were like able, like almost touched sasquatro. They were
Speaker 3: touched because there's a story. I'll get into the story
Speaker 3: of Moosely in a second. How I know people get
Speaker 3: touched are are so close to a Sasquatch there, like
Speaker 3: this lady. There's Moose Lake, which is just north of
Speaker 3: Seer Lake. There's a reserve and it's actually I can't
Speaker 3: remember the indigenous name, but it's called Moose Lake. And
Speaker 3: I guess there was a bunch of kids walking in
Speaker 3: the outskirts of that lake, of that community, and one
Speaker 3: girl was lagging behind, and there was like a like
Speaker 3: a picked youth walking ahead. I guess a young a
Speaker 3: younger sasquash jumped out of the forest and picked that
Speaker 3: young girl up and hoisted her on her shoulder, on
Speaker 3: his shoulders. I would assume it was a he, a
Speaker 3: mantle Sasquatch, and was attempting to abduct or take that
Speaker 3: young girl into the forest, and she flipped out. As
Speaker 3: a story goes, and there's like a YouTube video of it.
Speaker 3: You'd have to look for a moose lake, Moose Lake sasquatch.
Speaker 3: If you typed in Google, you'll see a video of
Speaker 3: an elder showing the footprints. I guess he outlines the
Speaker 3: footprints with stones and pebbles just to show where the
Speaker 3: where the sasquatch walked. And I guess that girl fought
Speaker 3: off that sasquatch and she was dropped and the other
Speaker 3: youth came running and hollering. Yes. That's why I say
Speaker 3: there's that first degree of being a knowwherre, and then
Speaker 3: there's a second degree, which is the people who saw it,
Speaker 3: and I guess it could be from like zero, like
Speaker 3: zero to one hundred meters and then a hundred meter
Speaker 3: plus sightings. And and then there's the third degree I
Speaker 3: would say, I would call it, and that is they
Speaker 3: had an experience, but no sighting like noise calls or
Speaker 3: rocks being thrown from the forest. So I became a
Speaker 3: knower when I had the theory that sasquatch crossed on
Speaker 3: that land bridge from Cedar Lake. In between Cedar Lake
Speaker 3: and like Winnipeg Grosses and there's this portage that Indigenous
Speaker 3: people used to go north south, south, north whatever, and
Speaker 3: the people of the South Lake Whinnipeg Ghosts area would
Speaker 3: use that portage to go to Cedar Lake. And later
Speaker 3: on during the fur trade uh uh, the leavengrea the
Speaker 3: French family the Levere they explored the west from the
Speaker 3: Montreal area and they came across Sea Lake and they
Speaker 3: saw a richer resources whatever they so they built a
Speaker 3: fur trade for it there and they were pretty much
Speaker 3: using that portage. So what I had a theory that
Speaker 3: they the sasquash across that portage from So when you
Speaker 3: zoom in to uh, if you go into Google Earth,
Speaker 3: then you zoom in you could see all over pretty
Speaker 3: much any lake and the wilderness. That's how good the
Speaker 3: images are nowadays. You can see all kinds of wildlife
Speaker 3: trails in the trees and like up here. The isn't
Speaker 3: like how it is in the States where he could
Speaker 3: like walk like walk on the ground. Up here, it's
Speaker 3: pretty much muskeg up north or Ceedar Lake areas, and
Speaker 3: there's like limestone ground. So it's it's either you're gonna
Speaker 3: be walking on solid limestone, or you're gonna be walking
Speaker 3: on a muskeg or Yeah. So well these trails that
Speaker 3: you can see them them all around the lakes and
Speaker 3: especially Cedar Lake. Uh, like the animals use them obviously,
Speaker 3: but my theory was U Sasquatch used them as well.
Speaker 3: And so I guess that place was it's called High Portage. Uh,
Speaker 3: we're the most north part of that portage that is
Speaker 3: that meets Cedar Lake. Kind of a famous area I
Speaker 3: guess in our stories in that our community there there
Speaker 3: was a huge battle that happened there and uh yeah,
Speaker 3: so like we don't know who they were at the time.
Speaker 3: I have a theory who it is. But yeah, I've
Speaker 3: been researching about all this stuff for about like sixteen
Speaker 3: years now, like all the topics of like Sasquatch and
Speaker 3: Cedar Lake history and so High Portage is if you
Speaker 3: looked up on the map, there's a like wildlife trail
Speaker 3: connects with the human trail. Portage is made by a human.
Speaker 3: Only human is gonna go from lake to lake with
Speaker 3: their with their news. Yeah. So what happened was that
Speaker 3: I actually actually had a theory. Does that's exactly where
Speaker 3: a sasquatch crossed, and as it turned out too that
Speaker 3: I guess there's a lot of sightings of sasquatch that
Speaker 3: happened in that area, and I've heard the stories from
Speaker 3: different friends. I've seen it there. So I told my mom,
Speaker 3: I know exactly where they walk and yeah, so my
Speaker 3: mom is like one of these I guess non believers,
Speaker 3: and so I took her specifically on the trail. It's
Speaker 3: like you could take a vehicle, but it's like a
Speaker 3: wildlife the wilderness pretty much right. So the side thing
Speaker 3: I had was I told my mom to drive with
Speaker 3: Actually I was the one driving. I was I was
Speaker 3: going coasting speed the whole time from number sixty Highway
Speaker 3: off the Portage trail and by the time we got
Speaker 3: nearly to the end, that's when we saw this huge
Speaker 3: black mass in the middle of the trail and it
Speaker 3: looked like a huge bear like from Fara. And it
Speaker 3: had that been a huge bear, that would have been
Speaker 3: like the world's most world smashed world record of a
Speaker 3: black bear ever, because that thing was like, I don't
Speaker 3: like four feet five feet wide, and well we saw
Speaker 3: it was like it was like a ball on a
Speaker 3: couch down, Like we didn't know it was crouched down.
Speaker 3: We just had a huge mass on the road. And
Speaker 3: then it stood up and walked on two legs for
Speaker 3: like three strides, and then it got back down and
Speaker 3: I guess it was picking at the ground on the trail.
Speaker 3: It must have been berries or something, because there are
Speaker 3: wild strawberries that grew in the area. But I didn't
Speaker 3: check what they was looking for, but what And then
Speaker 3: all of a sudden it must have heard the van
Speaker 3: or smelled the van, because in that short time, we
Speaker 3: were trying to get our cameras ready, and by the
Speaker 3: time we had like just as we were about to
Speaker 3: start recording video and stuff, I looked around it like
Speaker 3: snapped its head back and it rose like a split second,
Speaker 3: and then it took off running. It didn't run on
Speaker 3: two legs. It ran on u its hands and his feet.
Speaker 3: But uh yeah, so when it was walking on two feet,
Speaker 3: what we saw, like my mother, uh she was saying,
Speaker 3: it's walking like a human. It's walking like a human,
Speaker 3: that's what she said. And uh yeah, that's it walked
Speaker 3: three strides and then this went back to croaching. So
Speaker 3: it's not like it was a bear. We saw a bear,
Speaker 3: but that thing was like eating half eat nine feet
Speaker 3: tall or some like. That thing was big and wide,
Speaker 3: and uh, it took off running on all hands and
Speaker 3: hands and feet like like a dog or a bear
Speaker 3: wood and so yeah, so after that sighting, we we
Speaker 3: it's it's what happened. It took off, it down it
Speaker 3: like maybe four times three times, and it took off
Speaker 3: into the bush to the right, and uh we my
Speaker 3: mother and I drove up to that spy and there
Speaker 3: was like this like hole in this forest trail was
Speaker 3: probably like a barry trail or something. And I try
Speaker 3: to go in there to see if I could see
Speaker 3: any like hair on the trees or something, and it
Speaker 3: was starting to be wood ticks seasons. I don't want
Speaker 3: to get wood ticks, man, because they're like probably babies
Speaker 3: at that time, and because I didn't want to risk it.
Speaker 3: So my mother and I continued to the lakes through
Speaker 3: the lake and uh, she wasn't scared. I wasn't scared.
Speaker 3: It's like like, I don't know why there's a I
Speaker 3: guess some people are terrified when they see it. Uh,
Speaker 3: with my experience my mother and I had was like
Speaker 3: just like we were amaze. He was like, I was like,
Speaker 3: I finally saw what I believed, you know, and where
Speaker 3: I said it was going to be. And yeah, so
Speaker 3: my mother was a one hundred percent non believer at
Speaker 3: that point, I guess based on I don't know why.
Speaker 3: Maybe I don't know. Some people don't believe stuff like that,
Speaker 3: But I don't want to guess or make up things
Speaker 3: for her. But I believed, and we sure sure enough,
Speaker 3: I saw it. I became an or that these are
Speaker 3: the levels of Sasquatch. I guess it's like five or
Speaker 3: six or something by other community members, but there's like
Speaker 3: quite a few of them. I actually want to write
Speaker 3: a Sasquatch book about this, to go along with that
Speaker 3: Sasquatch group I made in Facebook. I want to bring
Speaker 3: awareness because I know these things are real. And yeah,
Speaker 3: another thing too is I know, like what are they like?
Speaker 3: Are they are they an animal? Are they a sub human?
Speaker 3: Or they inter planetary species or intergalactic species or whatever
Speaker 3: people want to say, because trying to say they're go
Speaker 3: through like portals and like, I don't know, I think
Speaker 3: they're just some likes like Anthropithecus. I guess, I guess
Speaker 3: that's what I think They're un like the gorilla, the ape.
Speaker 3: You know, in the nine early nineteen hundreds, they weren't
Speaker 3: known about typically and uh what happened was, uh some
Speaker 3: there were stories by indigenous people of the area of
Speaker 3: sightings of monsters I guess in the mountains, and uh,
Speaker 3: finally they were documented, you know. So I think that's
Speaker 3: what the sasquatches is, some kind of undocumented heap of
Speaker 3: some sort. So I think what I'm trying to do
Speaker 3: is gain some kind of legislation, I guess with with
Speaker 3: the my provincial government, Uh, have like protection over like
Speaker 3: its habitat so it's not over mined or over over
Speaker 3: hunted or whatever, not over hunted over a log forestry,
Speaker 3: you know. So as well, I wanted to have laws
Speaker 3: where people can't shoot one if they think they're gonna
Speaker 3: go hunt sasquatch and get away with it, as well
Speaker 3: as what other kind of legislation. Oh yeah, I like
Speaker 3: to harass it. And it's like a known habitat. Ever
Speaker 3: can if we could, we could really locate where like
Speaker 3: maybe potential breeding ground is Because part of my research
Speaker 3: into Manitoba history, I've been reading about, well, the Cedar
Speaker 3: Lake frank Into Cedar Lake has different errands to its
Speaker 3: being to its presence, I guess. And that was the
Speaker 3: last ice Age. This whole continent, pretty much more than
Speaker 3: continent was covered in like two mile high ice ice
Speaker 3: sheets all over all over the the continent and that
Speaker 3: over time melted away and it created this huge lake
Speaker 3: called Lake Agacy that covered most of the western provinces,
Speaker 3: and over time that lake drained, and uh, that's where
Speaker 3: we see the remnants of the smaller lakes that we
Speaker 3: see on the map, like the Great Lakes and like
Speaker 3: larger lakes like Lake Manitoba, like Whennipay goth this and
Speaker 3: Cedar Lake even and the other history that it has
Speaker 3: is with once that lake trained human and we're attracted
Speaker 3: to area is because of the resources that were going
Speaker 3: and locking here pretty much. And indigenous people met at
Speaker 3: c l A and made canoes for six thousand years roughly,
Speaker 3: i'd say. And next was the Europeans. They came in
Speaker 3: the English up north in the Hudson's Bay. They had
Speaker 3: the Hudson's Bay Company and they did vankom Land for
Speaker 3: like a couple of hundred years or one hundred and
Speaker 3: fifty years or something. Ny only stayed in their forts
Speaker 3: when they built these factories they called them. And I
Speaker 3: guess one one young man Englishman named Henry Kelsey. He
Speaker 3: was the first European to actually leave the fort walls
Speaker 3: and to intermingle with the indigenous people. And over time
Speaker 3: he learned the language of Cree and Uh. I guess
Speaker 3: his employer's the bosses of Rocking Bay Company h SAW.
Speaker 3: So they uh hired him are they forcefully said, he
Speaker 3: volunteered to make these excursions into uh. Well. First they
Speaker 3: sent Henry Kelsey up north, north of Churchill, and he
Speaker 3: ended up that being a failed mission because he couldn't
Speaker 3: walk in a straight line for very long because of
Speaker 3: all the small lakes that were there. Riddle of the
Speaker 3: north in the tundra. So he came back to Hudson's
Speaker 3: York factory it's called and uh they sent him south
Speaker 3: and I guess he was gone for like three years.
Speaker 3: And where he went that whole three years was like
Speaker 3: a mystery. And because noting like the Europeans, didn't have
Speaker 3: a map of the area. It was Mapia. So for
Speaker 3: the longest time, the travels of Henry Kelsey was unknown
Speaker 3: because he wrote about his his travels after the fact,
Speaker 3: and his journals were locked away in a storage for
Speaker 3: like two hundred years or something. And when his journals
Speaker 3: were found in nineteen twenty, when I believe it was
Speaker 3: early twenties, that's when the European and people were the
Speaker 3: topic of Cedar Lake started to pop up and they
Speaker 3: were wondering where he went because he wintered in sixteen
Speaker 3: ninety one and sixteen ninety two. Didn't know. But what
Speaker 3: he wrote about sounded like my grandfather's stories of where
Speaker 3: we came from before we were flooded out of Cedar
Speaker 3: Lake in the sixties. And so I started to read
Speaker 3: about the history and yeah, so saw Cedar Lake has
Speaker 3: a different history to it, and so the Sasquatch. There's
Speaker 3: like a lot of stories like of people that saw.
Speaker 3: There's this one guy I knows he's passed on as
Speaker 3: his rest of peace there. His name is Robert Walker.
Speaker 3: He had a fish camp. He's a correctal fisherman, and
Speaker 3: his fish camp was in the wilderness and that's sitting
Speaker 3: adjacent to Cedar Lake. And he was telling me one
Speaker 3: time he had all this fish in the fish cubs
Speaker 3: and he had ice right on top of the fish,
Speaker 3: and he was ready to put them in his boats.
Speaker 3: When he went back to his camp, his cabin, and
Speaker 3: when he came back, all his tubs were tipped over,
Speaker 3: and there was no bear around, and there was like
Speaker 3: a bear would have would have been a bear. He
Speaker 3: would have just tipped over like one or two and
Speaker 3: started feasting and there would have been a mask right there,
Speaker 3: and and there was no no uh, no fish anyway,
Speaker 3: they were just all this. It was like, I don't
Speaker 3: think it was forty hubs of fish that was tipped over.
Speaker 3: And he told me another time when they were camping
Speaker 3: like in that camp, because that fish camp was like
Speaker 3: away from the settlement of where we're from. I guess
Speaker 3: he bought a little dog with him and that dog
Speaker 3: was barking all night because he was He's telling me
Speaker 3: that he always gets the harassed by something like something
Speaker 3: throws rocks at his cabin, and so you thought he's
Speaker 3: having a dog this time, and he like, so the
Speaker 3: dog was outside while they were inside, and the dog
Speaker 3: was just barking away, and all of a sudden, the
Speaker 3: dog yelped, and I guess the dog was thrown against
Speaker 3: the side of the cabin really hard. It stopped barking
Speaker 3: and who said that it was, it's probably a sasquatch.
Speaker 3: With all the sightings of the sasquatch in the Cedar
Speaker 3: Lake area there there is more than one sighting obviously
Speaker 3: by our people. And there's a actually three different sasquatch
Speaker 3: that are recorded by people that I talk to you
Speaker 3: for my community of two crenation one is like the
Speaker 3: first one that I hear the most, is like eight
Speaker 3: feet nine feet tall and all black, black fur, black hair,
Speaker 3: whatever you want to call it. Yeah, very muscular. And
Speaker 3: this one it's so large that what it does to
Speaker 3: be not seen is it as it falls like like
Speaker 3: a like a spider or or runs away like like
Speaker 3: a bearwood on it's feet in its hands and uh,
Speaker 3: No one is like a four feet five feet wide
Speaker 3: out there. And the second one is uh is black too.
Speaker 3: It's as well, but it's only like, uh like eight
Speaker 3: feet maybe seven feet and it's it has a bit
Speaker 3: of a uh like I don't know, brownish or reddish
Speaker 3: fur on its chest. And uh there's a third one
Speaker 3: that scene and it's kind of brownish reddish and it's
Speaker 3: about seven feet tall as well, eight feet tall, and uh,
Speaker 3: my friend of mine actually saw the same one I saw,
Speaker 3: because he had the same him a description and I
Speaker 3: told him. I was like, hey, man, and my and
Speaker 3: my like I said, my mom, mother, and I saw
Speaker 3: it and I told him what happened. He's like, yeah,
Speaker 3: that's what he said. One time when he was on
Speaker 3: that same protagon. He uh, he was like hunting pretty much,
Speaker 3: he's a hunter. And he said he came across it
Speaker 3: and uh, I guess that sasquatch gone up, like he
Speaker 3: said how a football player would get down in a
Speaker 3: line of three point stands pretty much. And he said
Speaker 3: he looked like he was going to charge out in
Speaker 3: him and attack him, and then he realized that he's
Speaker 3: not a threat. And he's like six feet tall, a
Speaker 3: little skinny guy. I guess he's not skinny, but we'll
Speaker 3: probably hear this aroun but I called him skinny guy.
Speaker 3: But he's actually like compared to sasquatch, he's a skinny
Speaker 3: little guy. But yeah, so like many like I like
Speaker 3: many stories of this creature, this big being, and yeah,
Speaker 3: so I had other experiences to not the sightings in
Speaker 3: the same area, and one time when I went to
Speaker 3: that same place. So this is what I've been doing there.
Speaker 3: I've been leaving food when I have been going there.
Speaker 3: I haven't been there a little while, but I was
Speaker 3: leaving food with my scent on it, like apples or bananas,
Speaker 3: And I like to think that my scent is known
Speaker 3: with these Sasquatch. And I'm not a threat because I
Speaker 3: want to try capturing images of them on a camera
Speaker 3: and I've learned how to use a professional mirrorless camera
Speaker 3: recently and I'm actually quite talented with it. And uh,
Speaker 3: I was told that it's even if you had like
Speaker 3: a mirrorless camera, even if a used film, it's still
Speaker 3: like people are going to say that it's fake or whatever.
Speaker 3: You know. It's like, let's back to the like the
Speaker 3: levels of sasquad. There's always going to be the people
Speaker 3: who are going to deny it. You'd have to like
Speaker 3: literally get one in a zoo pretty much for people
Speaker 3: to be believers. However, the believers and non scopers, which
Speaker 3: defeats the whole purpose of why I'm trying to get
Speaker 3: some kind of legisla for protection in mega Province of Manitoba.
Speaker 3: I love the province. Yeah, So so I had that
Speaker 3: other experience, uh was when I went to the High
Speaker 3: portage with my buddy. I was just talking about Edmund
Speaker 3: and uh, like we heard some kind of like a
Speaker 3: wizzing sound. And the best way I can describe it is, uh,
Speaker 3: you know I've ever watched Crocodile Dundee when he tells
Speaker 3: that or porter he's going to the he's going to
Speaker 3: make a phone call and he goes with world some
Speaker 3: wooden contraption in the air and it like makes a
Speaker 3: I mean noise, And I was like, what is that
Speaker 3: in He was like, I don't know. We hear that
Speaker 3: here sometimes we don't know what it is. And this
Speaker 3: is like right in the middle of the wilderness pretty much,
Speaker 3: and like, I don't know any animal that will make
Speaker 3: that sound, Like no deer, no, no moose, no error
Speaker 3: would make that whizzing sound, or a coyote or a wolf.
Speaker 3: I don't know anything that would make that sound in
Speaker 3: the middle of the wilderness. And what I think is
Speaker 3: they have like a system of how they war on
Speaker 3: others that are there, is they've learned to World some
Speaker 3: kind of wooden fank maybe around in the air. I
Speaker 3: don't know what would make that like twirling sound. And
Speaker 3: another another experience I had in the area was like,
Speaker 3: I heard it now a noise when what what we
Speaker 3: heard had to have to set a lips on its
Speaker 3: face because, like I said, again, it's the middle of
Speaker 3: the wilderness, and what I heard sounds like this here,
Speaker 3: my lips are kind of dry. But what I asked
Speaker 3: real loud, like what I like, I pretty much made
Speaker 3: that sound what I heard, And uh, but what the
Speaker 3: being that made that sound was like way deeper out
Speaker 3: of deeper long capacity you could tell you like, so
Speaker 3: they I believe that they've created a set of warning
Speaker 3: calls with their lips, with their whooping, with the whoops
Speaker 3: that they do, and and with some kind of device
Speaker 3: or something that they used to wiz in the air.
Speaker 3: And yeah, so there's another topic I guess you could
Speaker 3: get into if this is uh vocalizations and do they
Speaker 3: have a language? My mom was telling me a story
Speaker 3: about this man, an older man, who said he knew
Speaker 3: how to communicate with these beings. There wasn't no word
Speaker 3: for sasquatch then, but he said that he knew how
Speaker 3: to communicate for them, and he would go in to wilderness,
Speaker 3: and I guess he would do that often, and then
Speaker 3: one day he didn't come back. So they must have
Speaker 3: some kind of language. And all right, how I and
Speaker 3: elder the indigenous man knew how to communicate with him,
Speaker 3: I don't know how that was possible, but that's what
Speaker 3: he did, you know. So they must have some kind
Speaker 3: of language with amongst themselves, like well, like all creatures
Speaker 3: on earth have some sort of language to communicate with
Speaker 3: each other. So yeah, I thought this is whooping calls
Speaker 3: were pretty weird, but like I wasn't scared. My mother
Speaker 3: wasn't scared either when we saw we had our sighting
Speaker 3: because I when we got to that lake, as I
Speaker 3: as I said, I left her because I was, like,
Speaker 3: I've been researching about the history. So that lake that's
Speaker 3: has claimed a lot of lives of the the Sanuis
Speaker 3: over the years. People have died crossing it. It's a
Speaker 3: big lake, but it's not like a very large lake.
Speaker 3: So like there was like winds make huge waves. But
Speaker 3: that's another thing too. It's a crazy little side story
Speaker 3: was when my brother and I were like seven and
Speaker 3: he was six and their little cousin, Blair was five,
Speaker 3: we found this styrofoam like for a sighting on the
Speaker 3: house for the exterior, and we thought it would be
Speaker 3: a good idea to uh swim all the way to
Speaker 3: uh see her to the Collins Island. Uh So if
Speaker 3: you looked up the map and you looked up the
Speaker 3: count of eastergl and he zoomed in and you look
Speaker 3: how far Collins Island was, and you would I think
Speaker 3: that three little kids is making their way a strofoam.
Speaker 3: And what happened was left to like eleven and we
Speaker 3: ended up almost making it like you could see the
Speaker 3: you could see the grass in the mark whatever the
Speaker 3: reeds of the shore of that island. When and what
Speaker 3: happened was it started getting really windy, and waves started growing,
Speaker 3: and all of a sudden, lightning and thunder, and the
Speaker 3: waves turned into like three meter high or plus. I
Speaker 3: can't remember how Pollard was, but I told my youngest
Speaker 3: cousin to be in the middle, and we went to
Speaker 3: the locked arms and I was on the right side,
Speaker 3: my brother was on the left side, and my cousin
Speaker 3: just held his hands together and we were in that
Speaker 3: lake for like ten hours, going up and down, kicking,
Speaker 3: and there was windy and it was like being in
Speaker 3: a bowl pretty much. You know, I feel like at
Speaker 3: a bowl like a cereal ball and if you look
Speaker 3: at the bottom, it's like a the inside of a bowl.
Speaker 3: The only time I guess you could say we were
Speaker 3: in danger pretty much was when we hit the crest
Speaker 3: of the wave. And yeah, I think of this every
Speaker 3: day that I'm fifty years old now and I haven't
Speaker 3: stopped thinking about this incident. But when we hit the
Speaker 3: crest of the way, that's when we looked around and
Speaker 3: we saw like thousands and thousands of crests with the
Speaker 3: one we were on, and I remember seeing the community
Speaker 3: lights and you can only see it for like a
Speaker 3: spit second once you hit the crest, and every now
Speaker 3: and then we're getting closer, and we're getting closer, and
Speaker 3: then finally we hit the breakwater. That breakwater pretty much
Speaker 3: saved our lives because otherwise we would have been smashed
Speaker 3: on the on the limestone. The shoreline, they're like they're
Speaker 3: like walls pretty much. Oh yeah, the lake cleaned a
Speaker 3: lot of lives. And uh so I was looking for
Speaker 3: I was looking for artifacts on the shoreline, like pottery,
Speaker 3: uh even dish shards from the fur trade. And uh
Speaker 3: so I left my mom there at that location. So
Speaker 3: it's like when you see the sasquatch I guess it's
Speaker 3: different some people. Some people are like terrified, they're like
Speaker 3: so scared, you know, just from just just because their
Speaker 3: eyes saw one, you know, and that's just the sighting.
Speaker 3: And uh I felt like when we my mother and
Speaker 3: I saw that sasquatch, we weren't even uh we weren't
Speaker 3: even scared at all, Like my mom's in their seventies.
Speaker 3: And I left like one hundred meters meters from that
Speaker 3: sighting where we saw it, and uh I went looking
Speaker 3: for artifacts. Mm hmm. Yeah. So that's that's my thing
Speaker 3: on on all this Sasquatch topics, and uh So what
Speaker 3: I'm trying to do is, uh, I'm trying to write
Speaker 3: about Sasquatch book about these different levels and other things,
Speaker 3: because there's other as well, other topics of the paranormal.
Speaker 3: I guess you could say about the area. And there's
Speaker 3: like lights in the sky that we always see that
Speaker 3: are weird and people are trying to say that like UFO,
Speaker 3: I guess, And there's even stories of like, uh, like
Speaker 3: large snakes like cedar Pogo color thw like there's some
Speaker 3: kind of large snake that lives in there the river,
Speaker 3: I mean in the lake and we've named it STUDI Pogo,
Speaker 3: and then there's I guess, like I don't know, I
Speaker 3: think mermaids even merman. I don't know if there's any
Speaker 3: a validity that, but there's the elders totally talked about
Speaker 3: that in the area. So that's year Lake is like
Speaker 3: really rich and uh everything history, the resources that's supported
Speaker 3: indigenous people of all kinds. There's like the most important
Speaker 3: meeting place even Sasquatch came to the area. And yeah,
Speaker 3: so with Henry Kelsey too, like I go back to him.
Speaker 3: We were looking for his wintering location because he left
Speaker 3: what he calls us Spring Cross with the name Edward
Speaker 3: Deering and the date sixteen ninety two on it. And
Speaker 3: my theory is it's not a wooden cross, it's a
Speaker 3: rock formation. And why I say that was because a
Speaker 3: couple of years prior, Kelsey was sent up north and
Speaker 3: he saw in excooks. You don't know what his are,
Speaker 3: These are like a rock formation, real formations on the
Speaker 3: ground that anyway people left as markers direction. So I
Speaker 3: think Kelsey copied that idea to a degree and left
Speaker 3: because he's talked about that in his journal that he wrote.
Speaker 3: So we were called crazy, me and my cousin and
Speaker 3: his son for going into what our people call sasquatch
Speaker 3: breeding ground, which is actually the west portage of different
Speaker 3: portage I just spoke of and oh yeah, so yeah,
Speaker 3: I had another experience there totally. I know, I get
Speaker 3: to it. But so when we were going down this portage,
Speaker 3: it took forever because it's a muskeg. And so my
Speaker 3: cousin and his son were with using quads and they
Speaker 3: were both messed up quads, like one had a faulty
Speaker 3: battery but it had fat wheels, and the other quad
Speaker 3: was had a good battery but it had scrawny, skinny wheels,
Speaker 3: and the musk and the muskeg. We were constantly getting
Speaker 3: stuck and like so while they were kind of get
Speaker 3: unstuck and the other bad the quad was dying. So
Speaker 3: they were trying to charge a battery of one quad
Speaker 3: with the other. It was a mess. And it took
Speaker 3: a simple three hours trip took us literally eleven hours
Speaker 3: because we hometimes we got stuck and they got to
Speaker 3: uh pitch black. And what's what was weird was that
Speaker 3: area where they called the sasquatch breeding grounds, there was
Speaker 3: like no birds. There was like no chipmunks, there's no squirrels.
Speaker 3: There was no no chattering of birds, no nothing. It
Speaker 3: was just devoid of sound, just the deafening sound of
Speaker 3: the wind, if you will. And it was pretty eerie.
Speaker 3: And so what happened was, uh, while they were getting unstuck,
Speaker 3: because we were searching for Henry Kelsey's certain cross that
Speaker 3: he left in sixteen ninety two. There's six ninety what there? Yeah,
Speaker 3: so he uh, I kept on walking ahead and it
Speaker 3: was like literally pitch black. You couldn't see anything, You
Speaker 3: couldn't see your hand in fron your face. And whenever
Speaker 3: they got stuck, I walked ahead and I would turn
Speaker 3: around and I would watch them trying to get on stuck.
Speaker 3: And I wanted to see how it looked like to
Speaker 3: be so far, and I wanted to see if I
Speaker 3: could hear any weird noises. And as I was standing
Speaker 3: there about one hundred meters from my cousin's headlights of
Speaker 3: the quad in the middle of the forest pitch black,
Speaker 3: I'm in knee high water because it's the Muskeg. And
Speaker 3: you don't know what the muskeg is. It's pretty much
Speaker 3: an interconnected roots of many trees that are and I
Speaker 3: have like needles or deciduous trees, and when you're walking,
Speaker 3: you're pretty much being supported by the roots of the
Speaker 3: trees in many places, and sometimes you could sink your
Speaker 3: leg right real deep, or you could get the real
Speaker 3: deep spot and go up to your waistephen So I
Speaker 3: was in this knee high water in the Muskeg, in
Speaker 3: the trail and watching my cousin and my cousin Blaney
Speaker 3: and his son trying to get out of the muskeg.
Speaker 3: And then one time I heard a crack beside me,
Speaker 3: maybe about ten yards, I guess to the liking me,
Speaker 3: And uh, that was after I heard like flatching, like
Speaker 3: I heard a what like something was walking in the muskeg,
Speaker 3: and you know, you could here's this something walking in
Speaker 3: and out of the muskeg and all this, like I
Speaker 3: was a yeah, you know, And then that's when it
Speaker 3: it broke a branch or something. It must have stepped
Speaker 3: on our hit one with his knee or his shoulder
Speaker 3: or his head or something like it snapped a large
Speaker 3: branch and it freaked me out, Like I got really
Speaker 3: uh startled by that, and I thought maybe it was
Speaker 3: a bear or something. But this was like really thick bush. Really,
Speaker 3: this is like the wilderness. And so I whistled as
Speaker 3: loud as I could with my fingers, and I thought
Speaker 3: that whatever that was but running off in the in
Speaker 3: the pitch block, but it didn't even move, and uh,
Speaker 3: I swear that was a sasquatch. And uh so I
Speaker 3: told my cousin, what you know, and I said that
Speaker 3: something's right here. I was pointing to my left. I
Speaker 3: said something's right here, and uh, I didn't want to
Speaker 3: stand it more, so I went walking back to them
Speaker 3: and they got unstuck. And I guess before we went
Speaker 3: on this excurgeon, we told our people that if we're
Speaker 3: not back by st an hour, something went wrong. So
Speaker 3: my cousin brought a shotgun with him, so he was
Speaker 3: signaling in the air that like every now then he
Speaker 3: had fire shots. So they the people, I guess, made
Speaker 3: this this search party. They were getting come look for
Speaker 3: us down this portage, and we finally emerged out of
Speaker 3: it like eight hours after the factor's supposed to be back.
Speaker 3: And when we were finally safe beside the highway and
Speaker 3: out of that muskeg, they were saying that something was
Speaker 3: walking at the opening of that portage just beyond the
Speaker 3: because the opening of that portage is right underneath the
Speaker 3: power line, so there's like a clearing there and the
Speaker 3: clearing is full of water and muskeg and yeah, pretty much.
Speaker 3: They these people, the rescuers party, told us something was
Speaker 3: walking and at the opening of that that portage crail
Speaker 3: and they we all of a sudden emerged from there.
Speaker 3: And that's like, Tommy, I heard something, you know. So
Speaker 3: Cedar Lake has a lot of rich history with the
Speaker 3: indigenous and then the European with the fur trade, and
Speaker 3: with the lakes, both lakes. And I'm trying to actually
Speaker 3: write about all this stuff. I have like a bunch
Speaker 3: of ideas and I have never published a book, so
Speaker 3: I'm trying to find somebody to help me out to
Speaker 3: write about the history of Manitoba pretty much. And yeah,
Speaker 3: and I want to write about Sasquatch and other stuff
Speaker 3: and that crazy story I told you about being in
Speaker 3: the lake as a little boy with my cousins. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I lived a pretty uh crazy life and then I
Speaker 3: dodged death many times as a child and as a
Speaker 3: team and not so much as adult. Because I guess
Speaker 3: that's why there's like that in some mortality rate, or
Speaker 3: I guess some child mortality rate. You kids are do
Speaker 3: stupid things, and you know what I mean. So I
Speaker 3: lived to tell the tale, they say, And I have
Speaker 3: some grand ideas. I have a novel that I've set
Speaker 3: this u this like non fictional storyline based off of
Speaker 3: that battle. I spoke about briefly of a portage. It
Speaker 3: was like, we don't know who they were, but they
Speaker 3: came to they showed up in our area and we
Speaker 3: defeated them. And after like some research, I found out
Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure it was the Mohawk that came all
Speaker 3: this way because the French was here, the Landre family,
Speaker 3: and every fall the Lavra family returned from Cedar Lake
Speaker 3: with like canoes after canoe after canoe full of birds,
Speaker 3: and he was the envy of every I in the area.
Speaker 3: And so that's when I think it was like the
Speaker 3: battle between the French and the English, the British and
Speaker 3: the French over North America at the time, and the
Speaker 3: British I found like I read it to it. I
Speaker 3: saw that the Mohawks were absent from a particular battle
Speaker 3: in the seventeen eighties especially or early seventeen nineties or
Speaker 3: something like seventeen eighties and then they weren't even in
Speaker 3: their area. And that's about the timeline I say, when
Speaker 3: these people came to try to steal our furs and
Speaker 3: what happened was Levre wasn't They knew that Levonree family
Speaker 3: wasn't going back to Cedar Lake that year because of
Speaker 3: the war that was happening. There's like no market for
Speaker 3: They were like, no, no, they weren't even thinking of
Speaker 3: a fur trade in Montreal at the time because of
Speaker 3: the war. I think it might have happened around the
Speaker 3: capitulation if I said, they're probably a capitulation of Montreal
Speaker 3: and seventeen ninety or something. But yeah, so Seiar Lake
Speaker 3: has like this rich history that can support tourism of
Speaker 3: different types and yeah, it goes like Fastquatch tourism is
Speaker 3: what I want to try to have to do as well.
Speaker 3: I want to try to talk people to come and
Speaker 3: see our land and see our stories, hear our stories,
Speaker 3: and hopefully have me sity around an actual account fire
Speaker 3: talking about more stories that I'm going to learn about
Speaker 3: because I'm trying to come out sasquatch in Manitoba. I'd
Speaker 3: like to say I appreciate my time here to tell
Speaker 3: my big foot sighting that happened at the lake Anatola,
Speaker 3: and I hope to in the future tell my story
Speaker 3: in person to whoever makes their way up there. Thank you.
Speaker 4: Well, that's it for tonight's show. If you've had a
Speaker 4: big Foot siding and would like to be again, please
Speaker 4: go to my Bigfoot Sighting dot com and let us know.
Speaker 4: Thanks for listening, have a great night.
