Wood Knocking

I took a trip with my friend and team member Josh to Strathcona park .We met at the chain up area at the base of Mount Washington and headed past Wolf Lake making a left just past the lake and followed the back roads until we got into the area of Regan lake. We got out of the truck several times to investigate the surrounding areas for any trace of Sasquatch with not much luck but we were lucky enough to see a couple of big black bears.
We then came to another main logging road where we decided to get out and try our luck with some "wood knocking"which is a known way to communicate with Sasquatch.We tried this for about 10 or 15-minutes,Josh was wood knocking while I took the opportunity to check some muddy areas for foot prints it was during this search that I started to hear replies to Josh's wood knocking. I then went back to Josh and asked him to come up by where I had heard the replies.No sooner did Josh get to where I was standing just a minute earlier when we again together heard wood knocking replies.
At this point we walked down the road repeating the knocking and getting responses every time.We managed to pin point the loudest area for responses and started video taping the wood knocking session with some great responses which you can hear plain as day on my video camera.
Our wood knocking session from start to finish lasted about an hour with responses happening up until we left.
We also took the opportunity to plant some food traps in the area(muddy areas) so that maybe if a Sasquatch was around it would become curious and eat one of the food traps leaving behind a track or two for us to cast.
This was a great field trip with some great audio captured of what was possibly a Sasquatch trying to communicate with us.
We will be returning to this area tomorrow to see if our food traps caught any tracks. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ibVtnOlEeJ4

Little Anderson Lake.

On Sunday may 9th/2010 I took a trip up to the Little Anderson lake area to do some field work.The following is from my field log:
Observations:Just past the Little Anderson lake pull-off I drove over a small bridge (creek running under bridge)and was just coming into the slash area above the lake when I noticed a black bear on the right shoulder of the road,I immediately stopped my truck.I was approximately 110'from the bear.The bear looked towards me but seemed more interested in smelling out some food.I proceeded to grab my video camera and started to film.
I watched the bear for some time as it made it's way up the bank and eventually disappeared into the forest.
I drove a couple more minutes and decided to pull-over to do some wood knocking.I tried this for about 20-mins with no response."Wood knocking" is thought to be a form of communication between Sasquatch.
I then decided to investigate the area for tracks,skat or anything else out of the ordinary.I found what looked to be numerous remains of grouse who were probably killed by hunters.After searching the immediate area I drove down a short road which is located directly above Little Anderson lake and dead ends as the road moves to the right.I walked to the end of this road and looked over a bank which has a creek cutting through and observed a waterfall to my right.At this point I decided to grab my binoculars and pan the area. I fixed my binoculars along the tree line at the edge of the slash going back and forth looking for any movement but saw nothing(I repeated this several times throughout my trip).
I then turned my attention to the ground where I noticed what looked to me like a foot print with four 4-toes. The ground in this area was not overly soft so I thought it made sense that if something heavy was walking it would probably push off with its toes as it shifted to the other foot leaving a print.I took several pictures and checked the area with a fine tooth comb but was unable to find any other tracks.
As I made my way back to the truck I then heard a loud thump (sounding like something heavy hitting a hollowed out stump or an area where the ground in the forest has hollow voids.)I stopped and turned around in the direction I believed the sound was coming from (I believe the sounds origin was coming from down the bank on the other side of the creek just inside the forest,approx 300' or so feet from where I was standing)I again heard this thump , It repeated about 5 more times with about a 30-second delay in between,it then stopped.
At this point it was starting to get late so I ended my trip and headed home.

Weather details: Mainly sunny with a few clouds,slight breeze and temperature was +13
Type of area: Above Little Anderson Lake ,recently logged (last couple of years)slash,with mature forest.On mount Washington,Strathcona Park.
Reason for research in this area: Looking for evidence of Sasquatch.I have picked this area based on a triaglization of chosen sighting reports,vocalizations reports,rock throwing reports and footprint reports.This area turns out to be in the middle of the triangle.

Other notes:
#1: Footprint found and photographed was of a left foot.
#2: 1/2 klm away was where I had black bear encounter.
#3: 1klm away I found deer tracks and canine tracks.
