Ep. 46: Before there was the famous Patterson-Gimlin sasquatch photo in 1967, there was Ape Canyon. In 1924, a group of miners claim they saw a "Mountain Devil," and shot at it. They would regret that decision that night when they said they were attacked by a group of these Bigfoot creatures. This is one of the most famous, violent, and scary sasquatch stories -- so much so that the attack warrants a "true crime" label, and received widespread media coverage long before society was talking about 'Squatch. Joining for the conversation is Cryptozoologist and Bigfoot researcher Eric Altman. With a combined 39 years of study and research of the phenomenon, Eric is a well-respected field researcher, contributing author and Director of the Pennsylvania Cryptozoology Society.
