Right so I'm not normally one for cryptid stuff, that's more my mate Dave's thing, but something big moving around in those woods at night near water that deep genuinely makes the hairs stand up on the back of me neck.
You got to think about what could actually survive undetected in terrain that remote. Bigfoot sightings in the Pacific Northwest are mental in number and Crater Lake sits right in the middle of prime territory for it. Could also be a black bear doing bear things obviously, but bears don't usually give people that specific feeling of being watched that witnesses always describe.
Anyone actually been out there with a thermal camera or even just done a spirit box session near the treeline after dark? Curious if there's any audio or footage floating around because I'd love to get me hands on it.
