Semi on topic - Sasquatch is the mascot for community Colleges of Spokane. One of the better nicknames in sports.
I can guarantee that Bigfoot doesn't live in North Central Washington. I saw all manner of critters when I lived there but no signs of Bigfoot.
I have a few illegitimate bigfoot stories....just the highlights:
My mom's first cousin lived in Bossberg for most of her life. Her house was about 100 yards from where Ivan Marx lived in the late '60's/early '70's while being sponsored in his bigfoot hunting by Argosy magazine. He had snowmobiles, new 4x4's and every toy imaginable, paid for by Argosy. There were related articles in the magazine (to which my dad had a subscription, so I got to read the articles). The prevailing view among the Bossberg locals was that he had a great scam going. All this led to his 1971 film footage. That area had several previously reported bigfoot sightings, all by people either considered to be some combo of crooked/shysters/drunks, or having been set up by one of those folks. My mom's side of the family had lived in that area for generations and found the whole bigfoot thing to be quite amusing.
My wife (Anthro grad) was in several of Grover Krantz's classes. She enjoyed him, though she thought he was a bit far out there. He visited the Upper Columbia/Kettle River region several times, and even ended up interviewing another distant cousin who had come across some bigfoot tracks. Our operating assumption was that somebody made the tracks with the intent of having others find them.
So no, no legit bigfoot stories from me. UFO's, on the other hand, are another story. My dad saw one in the early '60's where we lived in Rockford. But that is another story.

Nobody does, because Bigfoot doesn’t exist. If there was such a creature, a dead one would have been found by now. At least some hair, teeth…something.
Yeah, I'd believe there were aliens coming here, even if from a multidimensional universe or something else to explain the difficulties of space being so huge, before I believed there actually was Sasquatch extant right now on earth. At some point, someone would have found a trace, and it's so easy to find reasons for the stories (mistakes, drunk/inebriated people, lies, stories to scare kids to keep them from going places they shouldn't, bears, pranks, etc.).
I can't foreclose that, or Bigfoot otherwise being from another dimension in terms of space or time.
I have a friend who makes these really cool metal Sasquatch renderings . Maybe he will send me a pic and I can post it . The dude is really talented .
Simply because of the number of stars, planets, exoplanets, and environments, I absolutely believe there’s life on other worlds. Whether we’d recognize it is another question entirely. It may not be carbon based, and it’s likely it would look very different. Whether any alien creatures have been to earth is a different question. Doesn’t seem highly likely, but there have been incidents and observations that are tough to explain.
Not a lot, but not zero. More dead bear than dead Bigfoot.
There was one verified Bigfoot from the Skagit Valley. He was able to be semi domesticated and ended up wearing #88 for the Cougs in the early 2000's!
I've heard on good authority that the Patterson-Gimlin film (the one from the 60s where the squatch looks back at the camera that Biggs posted above) was fake. FWIW.
I agree with Mike Leach on this- someone would have found a dead one by now if Bigfoot is real and has been seen as often as the "sightings" suggest.

I've never found a bear carcass, but I've seen at least a dozen black bears in the wild. Haven't been anywhere near grizzly territory.

It was Bigfoot in disguise
