The Urban Sasquatch Journal: Revealing the Research Site





July 4, 2015 
Visit #11

I decided today, Saturday July 4, to take my bike to the park and do a 7 miles circuit. I went early that morning. I arrived around 8:30 a.m. and it was already warming up. The temperature was in the 80's, sunny and of course humid. 

As I was riding, I made the decision to do a second circuit and take photos of the bike/hike trail and all the trash containers along the route. I also showed areas of the woods that had standing water looking like a swamp. This is to show the possibility of Bigfoots taking the opportunity of raiding these containers for a possible extra food source as needed. I included photos of the main picnic area upon entering the park. This area includes 3 pavilions, 3 playgrounds, many picnic tables and approximately 33 trash containers. Also there are 3 gates across the main park road at various locations that are locked down at closing around dark. I took 69 photos during this time. I was at the park for over 2 hours.

On Tuesday July 7, I went back to the park after work to finish photographing more areas of interest. Its after 4:30 p.m., sunny and hot.These included the sports fields across from the main wooded park. These sports fields have many soccer fields, 4 baseball/softball diamonds, and a bike racing facility. I counted approximately 50 trash containers in that area. The whole area is bordered by woods. I drove next to the secondary picnic areas on the north side of the park. This area has 9 pavilions, many picnic tables, 3 restrooms, 3 playgrounds and approx. 39 trash containers.

On this side of the park there is a neighborhood located directly across from woods. I show photos of the woods in relation to the street you turn on from the road next to the park. As you look down the street this is trash pickup day. You will see many trash bags and containers lining this street and a perpendicular street. Another possibility for opportunistic 'Bigfoots'.

The Saturday July 4 photos 1-69 that follow are mainly taken along the bike/hike trail going to the east. The Trail is approximately 3.5 miles one way. A circuit ride is of course to the end and back.

#43. At the 2.50 miles marker of the trail.




#44. thru #47. Wooded areas on both sides of the trail. Some with standing water. One photo has a construction hardhat in the distance.







#48. At the 3.00 miles marker of the trail.




#49.thru #52. Again, wooded, wet areas on both sides of the trail.







#53. At the 3.25 miles marker of the trail.




#54. Swampy area to the north of the trail.

#81. This photo is from the road near the park.





#82 thru #88. The park north side picnic areas with approximately 39 trash containers.











#89 thru #93. On 2 photos you see the tree line of the park from the neighborhood entry street and the parallel road to the park tree line. Three of the photos show trash bags and containers out for trash pickup.











These areas provide a great opportunity for another possible food source for these awesome forest people. The adventure continues!
