BIGFOOT Documentary | ALONE Overnight on VANCOUVER ISLAND | Clayoquot Sound and Nahmint Valley

This is my FIFTH Bigfoot Documentary! Join me on this solo adventure exploring the existence of Bigfoot on Vancouver Island. My first night was spent in the Nahmint Valley thanks to my incredibly generous guide, Cameron. Cameron is an avid First Nations hunter, with experience tracking black bears, elk, black tailed deer and more. Now working for the Department of Fisheries and Wildlife, he spends a lot of time patrolling the logging roads in the area. He was the best possible guide to show me around, and his Sasquatch stories were unbelievable.

I also need to thank Shelley and Carl who run the Crab Shack on the West Coast Trail. They make the BEST food and were incredibly generous to share their stories with me. If you're interested in booking a stay out there, visit:

I really loved speaking with them and hearing their stories while Maggie and I took a brief but delicious break during our six day backpacking trip through Pacific Rim National Park.

My second night searching for Bigfoot took me to a quiet and secluded cove on an island in Clayoquot Sound. This night had me extremely uncomfortable from the moment we pulled into the cove. As Sander Jain eloquently put it, "a place for humans to visit, but not remain".

As far as whatever it was that flew over the trees, I'll say this...I would've done ANYTHING in the moment to convince myself that it was just a bird. I remember being petrified because I knew for a fact that it was no bird. It very much seemed to be on a straight trajectory out to sea, and caused WAY too much wind. There is so much more that goes into the story of this lonesome night, but I was just too uncomfortable to film and narrate. I wasn't there to talk about UFO's, but sometimes that's just how these things go.

Thank you so much to Kerry Kilmer who was SO helpful when planning this trip. Be sure to check out her Canadian Bigfoot Map:
