Alberta: Bigfoot Walking on Water
I just had to use that title! …But the water was frozen, so it was actually walking on ice. I recently received this Bigfoot sighting report from Alberta, Canada. The sighting was in 1991 – about twenty years ago.
It was January 1991 and I was south of Valleyview, Alberta Canada about 10 pm with a co-worker in the woods. We were crossing a bridge in our truck, and when I looked down I saw a large, black, being marching across the frozen river. It was swinging its’ arms. I knew it wasn’t a man because of its size and color. When I told people what I saw they just laughed, but I know what I saw was Bigfoot.
To the person who sent me this report: I’m not laughing because… I believe Bigfoot exists. I admit I laughed a little, but only because you saw one walking on water (frozen) which I believe is fairly unique! Maybe not in your neck of the woods, though. Where I live, the water doesn’t freeze over.
Because many people laugh and scoff at the idea of a Bigfoot sighting, many experiencers stop telling what they saw. I find that sad and frustrating because there are a lot of people, like myself, that love to hear about Bigfoot. We want to know the habits, habitat, and actions observed during each sighting so we can learn more about our elusive, primitive cousins.
On the map, near the sighting location, there’s a lot of forested territory. There’s also the Willmore Wilderness Area, the Kakwa Provincial Park, and five other provincial parks and three national parks! It must be a beautiful area!

Sasquatch Watch of Virginia
I spent the day getting to know Billy Willard and other members of Sasquatch Watch of Virginia by exploring their site, blog, photographs, and videos.
The front page of Sasquatch Watch of Virginia features a video of Billy Willard explaining the organization’s goals. Don’t miss it! I especially like that the site states, “Our friendly research methods do ‘not’ strive to harm or kill any wildlife. We seek to be cooperative and not hurtful to any person and to any public or private organizations.”
The Sasquatch Watch of Virginia Field Research Blog is rich with accounts of actual field investigations. I especially liked the analysis of unnatural stick structures near Bigfoot footprints, and the article about why they chose Autumn, the beagle, as their squatching dog. I’d love to read more about adventures with Autumn and other squatching expeditions in the wilds of Virginia!
This is a media-rich site with videos and a sound recording of a mysterious forest howl. There are slide shows hosted by Flickr showing Virginia scenery and Bigfoot “trace evidence” such as hair, footprints, and stick arrangements. The many photographs show Virginia as a state with miles of forest in which Sasquatches can hide and thrive.
Associated with the site is Sasquatch Watch Radio with Virginia hosts, Billy Willard and DB Donlon aka: Blogsquatcher.) On a recent show (August 17, 2009) they interviewed Bobbie Short of Bigfoot Encounters about her sightings and Bigfoot research. Phenomenal information with a great squatching lady and Bigfoot research enthusiast.
A site FAQ answers questions about Bigfoot authenticity and history. There are also links to the group’s forum, Yahoo group, and news feeds.
Sasquatch Watch of Virginia appears to be a motivated, experienced, and capable crew ready to respond to any recent Bigfoot sightings or encounters in the state of Virginia. I look forward to more Virginia Bigfoot adventure when I explore related sites later in the year.

Todd Standing Sounds Credible
I’m listening to Todd Standing on Coast to Coast AM as I’m writing this – and I like him… he has a good spirit, and I’m inclined to believe his claim to have found Bigfoot and filmed Bigfoot videos.
This is very encouraging – especially because if this is valid, it feels good to know that someone decent and non-egotistical has done what some of the ego and money oriented Bigfoot researchers I’ve had contact with in the past have not been able to do. I see no problem with humble skeptics, but there’s been so much jostling to get to the top of the Bigfoot research field, it is nice to see a decent humble-sounding person making a breakthrough and finding Bigfoot before the others.
I plan to listen to the show again tomorrow with my Bigfoot research partner, and will probably write more about it then.
Down with crazy egomaniacs using one-upmanship tactics to find fame and fortune!
Power to humble people who seek to protect and care about Sasquatch!

Bigfoot Video & Bigfoot Protection Petition
Todd Standing says he’s found Bigfoot in the Rocky Mountains – and he’s made a documentary with Bigfoot footage to prove it.
Not only that, he’ll be on Coast to Coast AM this Sunday to tell us about it. See his website, Sylvanic, for more information.
I’m excited about this and have high hopes that it is the real thing. Todd took this one step further and introduced a petition to the Canadian House of Commons requesting legal protection for Sasquatch. I’m behind him 100% on this and have considered doing something similar locally since Sasquatch live in my area.
In an Edmonton Sun article about the petition, it is explained that the movie is called Sylvanic as that’s a native word from southern British Columbia meaning “shadow guardians of the mountains.”
