In this episode, we hear from Travis, an experienced outdoorsman from Oregon who has spent a lifetime hunting deep in the backwoods of Douglas County. During a blacktail hunt with his teenage son in 2020, what began as a quiet morning miles behind a locked gate turned into something neither of them could explain.<br /><br /><br />While standing on a remote logging road, Travis watched a towering, jet-black figure step down a hillside and cross directly in front of them. At that same moment, his son—facing the opposite direction—was seeing something just as real moving behind a nearby tree. Two witnesses, two separate figures, one shared location in the middle of the forest.<br /><br /><br />As they gathered themselves and searched the area, they expected to confirm what they had just experienced. The ground was soft enough to hold their own footprints. The path of travel was clear. Yet there was nothing left behind.<br /><br /><br />Travis walks us through every detail of that morning, the way the figure moved, the silence that followed, and the realization that something had been there with them the entire time. <br /><br />🗣️ <b>Share Your Story</b><br /><br />Had a Bigfoot encounter or strange experience?<br />Send it to [email protected] – your story might be featured on the show!<br /><br />🎥 <b>Watch &amp; Subscribe on YouTube</b><br /><br />🔴 Subscribe here → <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@BigfootSociety?sub_confirmation=1" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bigfoot Society YouTube</a><br />💬 Leave a comment &amp; let us know your thoughts!<br />📞 Leave a voicemail with your story → <a href="https://www.speakpipe.com/bigfootsociety" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Speakpipe</a> (Use multiple voicemails if needed)<br />👥 Share this episode → <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5v75Od-X38" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Watch &amp; Share</a><br />🎧 More episodes → <a href="https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3t1vwtsKh-MGeHs0XglFJE5LwUHpmJm_&amp;feature=shared" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Podcast Playlist</a><br />🌲 Recommended: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3t1vwtsKh-Mk4032IyZtWgP6LVPU8uat" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">New Jersey Bigfoot Encounters</a><br /><br />💥 <b>Support the Show &amp; Get Perks</b><br /><br />✅ Join the community on <b>Supercast</b> – <a href="https://bigfootsociety.supercast.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Become a Member</a><br />✅ Listen ad-free &amp; early on <b>YouTube</b> – <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8Qq45W6iaTU8FE9kelxT7Q/join" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Join Here</a><br /><br /><b>📱 Let’s Connect</b><br /><ul><li>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/bigfootsociety/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@bigfootsociety</a></li><li>Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/bigfoot_society" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@bigfoot_society</a></li><li>TikTok: <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@bigfoot.society" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@bigfoot.society</a></li></ul>🧰 <b>Tools &amp; Partners I Use (Affiliate Links)</b><br />These help support the show at no extra cost to you:<br /><ul><li><b>Beam (Better Sleep):</b> <a href="https://share.shopbeam.com/hnpc4ype" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Try Beam</a></li><li><b>Wildgrain (Better Bread):</b> <a href="https://wildgrain.com/a/refer-a-friend/redeem/6ogi3frocb2zwtbx8gx8lksvnpgb6tnxbhqlhfk2/8487" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Join Here</a></li><li><b>Seed (Probiotics):</b> <a href="https://refer.seed.com/x/JQ3nHF" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Get Seed</a></li><li><b>Medi-Share (Healthcare):</b> <a href="https://bit.ly/4iHULko" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Learn More</a></li><li><b>LMNT (Electrolytes)</b> Free Sample Pack with your first purchase! : <a href="http://elementallabs.refr.cc/default/u/byronstephanie" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Get LMNT</a></li><li><b>Organic and non-GMO groceries delivered for less</b><br /><a href="http://thrv.me/uarEhS" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://thrv.me/uarEhS</a></li></ul>🎙️ Podcasting Tools:<br /><ul><li><b>Repurpose.io:</b> <a href="https://repurpose.io/?fpr=28951" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Try It</a></li><li><b>Descript: </b><a href="https://get.descript.com/r3bclm1qi6r3" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Sign Up</a></li><li><b>Streamyard:</b> <a href="https://streamyard.com/?fpr=bigfootsociety" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Start Recording</a></li><li><b>Riverside.fm:</b> <a href="https://www.riverside.fm/?utm_campaign=campaign_5&amp;utm_medium=affiliate&amp;utm_source=rewardful&amp;via=bigfootsociety" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Try Riverside</a></li></ul>🎧 My Audio Interface: <a href="https://amzn.to/3L1q8XY" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">View on Amazon</a><br /><br />☕ <b>Buy Me a Coffee</b> – <a href="https://www.buymeacoffee.com/bigfootsociety" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Support Here</a><br />🛍️ <b>Grab Some Merch</b> – <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/bigfootsociety/?etsrc=sdt" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Shop on Etsy</a><br /><br />📬 <b>Mailing Address:</b><br /><br />Bigfoot Society<br />125 E 1st St. #233<br />Earlham, IA 50072<br /><br />
