FAQ

Territory and Language(s)?

It's a Possibility that the "Squatches" Retain their Language(s) Learned from other Peoples and I believe that it is relavant to know what the "Squatches" Might have Learned many centuries ago with the Native Americans. These Pictures of the Michigan Tribes may be an Indication to the Languages they may have been able to Understand.

It has been 200 Years since Anglo Influences have been around and enough time for the "Squatches" to Learn some of the Languages associated, but having knowledge of Ancient writing and language could assist in the research.

Why the White Palms and Soles?

Here are My Theories on the White Palms and Soles.

1-Like White Tail Deers, it could be a Sign to Flee for other "Squatches".

2-The White Palms also could be used for Signaling and quick referrences to Location. A Quick Flash of White to say "I am Here". 

The "Squatches walk in a way that they are practically unseen when approaching, and this could explain the "Cuped" Hands and the Style of Walk they use. Those could be to reduce the chances for them to be seen.

Here you see the White Palms and Soles as the "Squatch" is Leaving

Here you cannot see them as the "Squatch" Approaches

Another trick to keep their feet concealed is that they Sit on their feet so they point towards their back.

Rocks and Stones?

Could there be a Relationship between the Number and Sizes of Rocks to the Number and Ages of the "Squatches"?

So when a Human Places 5 Rocks on a Flat Stone, that may be telling the "Squatches" that "I Come with 4 Others." And this may Scare the "Squatches".

The Single Rocks on a Stone I Theorize are for Location Signals. "I am Here."

Trees and Stones?

The "Tree Knocking" I Associate with "Danger".

I Theorize that "Tree Knocking" is a Territorial Threat, or a "Run/Danger" Sign.

This is why I feel that they remain allusive.

Sasquatch/Bigfoot (Preferred) Foods?

From what I understand, It's anything that is High on Protien, like;

Peanut-Butter

Animal Liver (Raw)

Bacon/Bacon Grease

What are Typical Signs of Bigfoot/Sasquatch?

There are actually a few.

1-Rock Stacking. (See Rocks and Stones?)

2-Tree Bending.

3-Tree Breaking.

4-Tee-Pee Construction.

5-Lean-Tu Construction.

6-Nest Building. (Temporary)

7-The Creation of "X" by Broken Trees.

8-Feces around a Nesting Site.

9-Large (Bare) Foot Prints.

10-Twig Breaks along a path that are at or over the 6 foot height mark.

These are all Based off of other Researchers and used as preliminary indications.

Does MiCCR use "Documentation Protocol"?

Yes. There are a set of guidelines for Documentation of Sites and Events in place. They are as follows:

Does MiCCR Prepare for Researching in an area?

Yes. To Identify key areas prior to the Research of the Area is Extreemly Important and you can fins a lot of Information from just the Satellite Images. This is how we do this.

A Site is Selected. (This case it's the "Sleepy Hallow" Campgrounds.

Then a Basic Survey of the Site and Interesting points marked out and estimated times to each Point established based on 200ft/min walking speeds, and a Draft of Objectives drawn up (Like so).

 

BIGFOOT FILES
Area of Research-01
Task List
 
GOAL: To make rounds in 45 minutes. From the moment of leaving the Vehicle until the return to the vehicle. Walking Speed of 200ft/min (Taking into account of Vegitation.)
 
10.5 min walk-
 
Point-A; Time-Limit of Stop: 10min.
-Leave Treats on a pile of Stacked Rocks or on a thin branch 7 Feet High or Higher so Forest Animals cannot get to them.
-Say Again; "Good Will. Babushk. Food. Gyfu (Ge-Fu)" 
-Put Micro-Casette in the Area Playing "???" Sounds.
-Hide Second Micro-Casette (With Auto-On) Near.
 
5 min walk-
 
Point-B; Time-Limit of Stop: 2min.
-Try a "Tree-Knock".
-Listen for Activity.
 
7 min walk-
 
Point-C; Time-Limit of Stop: 5min.
-Try a "Tree-Knock".
-Listen for Activity.
-Look for Activity.
 
2.5 min walk-
 
Point-D; Time-Limit of Stop: 5min.
-Try a "Tree-Knock".
-Listen for Activity.
-Look for Activity.
 
5.5 min walk-
 
Point-E; Time-Limit of Stop: 5min.
-Try a "Tree-Knock".
-Listen for Activity.
-Look for Activity.
 
32 min walk-
 
PRE-EVALUATION of SITE: Being in the Fall, the area may be bare. "google maps" Shows a Bare and Brown area. Very Little Vegitation present. On the other hand, "mapquest" Shows a Lush and Green Enviroment. I am going to assume the worse but will proceed as planned. I have to take in Consideration of Hunting Season, which may Halt all possibility of my Search. It is State Land and there are several Deer Trails present.
Bow Season is from Oct-1st to Nov-14th, and then Rifle is from Nov-15th to Nov-30th.
The total timeframe of Hunting Seasons lasts from August 1st to March 1st.
This Map is Referenced above and shows the Vast Differences that a Site can have.

"Tag-Team" with the Video-Cameras. (Meaning that is one person suspects seeing something that they keep their camera on it while the second person investigates. Could even be done in this manner; Person who Discovers gets to verify while the second keeps their camera trained on the area. Tri-Pods should be used for Stability.)
