Ah, but did Sasquatch find them?

Were they vaccinated? Seems like an obvious question given the circumstances.

Searchers don't "find" Sasquatch. Sasquatch finds them.

Poor fools.

Yesterday a morning came, a smile upon your face
Caesar's palace, morning glory, silly human race,
On a sailing ship to nowhere, leaving any place,
If the summer change to winter, yours is no disgrace

- S'quatch

The West Coast version of Florida men.

Florida men use airboats.

That would be the intelligent approach.

My first "learning how to do research" college paper... back in the '70s... before the internet... was about the Sasquatch, Yeti, and Abominable Snowman sightings. The evidence is so sketchy... and yet compelling... because the stories have similar threads even though they occurred at vast distances. They were spotted as far ... from the Himalayas to California which at the time...before drones and satellite surveyance... there were vast areas of uncharted mountainous territories all over the world.

Nowadays it strikes me that if Google satellites can catch an image of my compact car from space... and regular-sized people on the ground...

My mother was flabbergasted when I showed her the satellite image of her freshly painted bright red cellar door. They can probably also read the date on a dime.

But back to the story . . .

Oregan men never heard of snowmobiles? or 4 x 4's?

They were in a national forest. Oregon men don't know how to gather tinder? Rub two sticks together?

They didn't pack any flares?

Good Grief.

Not sure the "Oregon" part of the label is needed. Just describing them as "two men" would have sufficed to offer a hint as to the why of the crazy.

Scroll up.

Trite compared these two hapless Sasquatch hunters from Oregon as the West Coast version of Florida men.

Florida men know better than to go trekking around the Everglades looking for Bigfoot, ill-equipped and un-prepared for the dangers they'd face.

It's no tea party out there regardless of who you are or where you're from.

Florida is a much more forgiving environment. You can get hypothermic there, but you really need to be trying. It actually happened to me once. Thanks, Air Force.

Drunk and stupid in the mountains of Oregon will kill you.

In the future I would advise that you don't expose yourself in front of a Sasquatch.

Impeding scientific confirmation has been a priority.

Evidence that humans share this planet with several hominid species today is embattled as their habitats are being encroached upon by corporate and military interests that maintain this secrecy.

The Smithsonian commits intellectual fraud since it's inception, imo.
