Here is my coverage of the 2022 Redding California Lighted Christmas Parade. The theme this year was "All aboard the Ornament Express". The parade took place in downtown Redding on December 3rd and was pretty dang cold! -Enjoy

Put on your headphones if you need to. This has been captured a couple times now on my audio recorder out in Trinity County California. It has always occurred between midnight and 2 am. It also is present at the same time the tree knocking beings are around. Pretty gutsy for an animal. I go back and forth between bird and something else. Sure sounds like it has a good set of lungs. I would love to get a visual of this. If anyone knows what it might be please send a link to it in the comments. Thanks!

Here is coverage of The Holly Jolly Christmas parade in Red Bluff, California. It was held on November 26th, 2022. I'll give you a taste in case you couldn't be there. CAUTION! There are extreme depictions of people having a good time and spreading cheer in this far Northern County. You've been warned.

There is a place in Shasta County, California I call Monkey Tree. I was exploring strange things here in 2018 until the Carr Fire devastated the area. Strange things still occur here though I don't visit as frequently since the fire.

Here is a compilation of game camera footage from the 530 Area of Northern California in 2020. Enjoy!

I was expecting to be amazed but not so much. I analyze a recent video suspected to be of a Sasquatch. Maybe I am wrong. This is just my opinion of course.

I demonstrate to a friend how to capture hidden knocking while we go out for a motorcycle ride in the wilderness. I suspect these are Sasquatch. They signal when you approach and are typically watching from an elevated position. This is the location I nickname "Headless Raven" and have been monitoring since early 2018.

Here is a Woodknock audio/ visual compilation from my Raven Hill location. 13 consecutive nights from around 9pm to around 5am. This was captured July 15th thru the 27th. Right after my camping trip the 13th and 14th where I got track casts and audio in and around where I camped. Very busy in this stretch of woods located in Trinity County, California. It's best to use headphones to listen. I have far more audio than I can ever review from the last couple years. This is just a 2 week night-only cross section. Demonstrating the level of activity. No chatter discovered as of yet. For those that appreciate, enjoy!

I used to do this as a kid and still do it today as an OG outdoorsman! Diggin up Ant Lions if I'm lucky!

This the remote audio portion of my very active camping trip overnight recently on July 13th and 14th 2022. While I was camping at a distant campground with a parabolic dish, these were the recordings I captured at Raven Hill the same night near my newly deployed thermal trap. 14 hours of audio from approx 3 p.m. on the 13th until approx 6 a.m. the morning of the 14th when I retrieved my thermal trap. That night in camp I captured knocking and tapping and had a can of nuts stolen from my camp table while I slept in the truck seat. The next day I retrieved my thermal trap and then proceeded to a new location where I discovered multiple tracks with incredible step lengths and cast some of the best examples I own today. This has been an active location for me since April of 2018 and remains so today. This recorder has plenty more to share. I have multiple deployment ranged dating back thru last year and I just can't get thru it all yet. In Excel, cells in white haven't even been listened to yet. I have been cherry-picking a few hours each night from approx 10 p.m. until 4 a.m. unless it is so active I expand the range on that night. Pretty interesting for remote a National Forest location. Headphones will be a better experience as I am just an amateur at audio/ video editing!

My final analysis of the weird audio from April 7th 2022 has solved one question but as always, poses another. I know the answer already but have to capture a lot if you guys want the Audacity video that goes with all the audio. I still haven't scrubbed even a fraction of both last year and this year's audio. Audio is cool and all but I love casting prints and possibly interacting so that requires me to be out in the field and not by the computer! Headphones are best for this set of clips. Lots more coming!

Here is more footage of scouting for Sasquatch prints. I find a lonely marble and a really cool cairn display. Somebody spent a great deal of time stacking it and nobody had knocked it down yet. Amazing!

Here is the audio I captured while camping overnight on a scouting trip where I discovered incredible tracks. It was July 13th and 14th, 2022. I left a partially empty can of nuts with the lid on, centered on my picnic table on purpose to see if anything came for them. In the morning the can was gone and I thought I might have subconsciously packed them back in the truck by mistake. This audio tells a different story. The can was just a couple of feet from my parabolic dish which was pointing away from camp across to the distant hillside. I had another wireless microphone about 12 feet in front of my truck in the opposite direction. You can hear the can scrape then tilt so the nuts rattle and then it was gone. They didn't hit the ground. The truck microphone actually picks up running and the tin making a sound in the distance.

Here is a time lapse of footprint casting July 14th, 2022. Sped up 4000 percent I believe. Was about 3 hrs originally and got to 100 degrees that day!

Incredible inhuman trackways in Trinity County, California. Unbelievable step length. Is it Sasquatch? Just another day here! I cast 7 prints and document some incredible finds while camping overnight. I also got to test my new thermal camera trap! See that build here https://rumble.com/v1dfrcn-axis-q-1942-e-thermal-trap.html Thanks for watching! Rumble and Subscribe for future updates

Here is a Thermal trailcam I built using an Axis Q 1942-E. Modified and painted a lockable steel box. Used lithium batteries designed for a fish finder power source. It can run unattended approximately a day and swap out the battery or probably 2 days with both batteries in parallel. The images are recorded to an internal micro SD card and can be retrieved later with a laptop. Alternately it could be powered over ethernet on a property where longer run time is desired. Can't wait to start putting this to the test out in the woods!

Showed up in Willow Creek, California for the 2022 Bigfoot Daze! Got stuck in traffic so missed the parade but walked main street and visited the Bigfoot Museum. Stopped at Big Bar on the way back to dip our feet in the Trinity River before heading back to the Redding heat. Rumble, comment and Subscribe!

I just found lost video footage of a trip I made to a place I nickname "Headless Raven". I was very spooked that day and could never figure out why. I was wearing shooter's earmuffs and apparently misinterpreted clacks or breaks I was hearing I guess. I didn't have any audio to review of that day until now. Quite a few clacks on this hike. It was early in my exploration of this place so I didn't know how active it was there yet! Now I know why I was so uneasy! Thanks for watching

Here is a sample of my primary thermal recording setup. This was recorded with my Trijicon IR-HUNTER MK3 60mm scope connected to a Black Magic Video Assist 12G-SDI Monitor/Recorder. In this footage, I track a fox hunting in a grass field in Lassen County, California. Rumble, Comment and Subscribe!

The evolution of my Sasquatch scouting rig. This vehicle called me to it. Neither the salesman nor I even knew it was in the back of the dealership. Apparently someone preordered it and then had to go to Europe and couldn't take it. Only 4 miles on the ODO when I test drove it. I put 8 miles in on the test drive. The dealer washed it and gassed it up and I took possession with 13 miles on the odometer! My lucky number. One of many lucky coincidences I would have.

Beginning in 2020 I began expanding my range to Plumas County, California where I found my first suspected Sasquatch print. Since then I have returned and found strange things every trip it seems. Although the same occurs in every county I have explored in NORCAL, This location seemingly predicted I was coming before I knew it. Strange , spooky and pretty cool.

2022 04-07 Here is an odd set of audio clips recorded between 1 and 2 a.m. on April 7th 2022 in Trinity County, California. Initially I thought I had something pretty crazy but I think it is a biologist surveying for Spotted Owls. I'm not sure what the weird whistle recording is. I couldn't find it anywhere related to Spotted Owls. There are also a couple of wood knocks that occur in this capture. The silence in this area is pretty amazing and goes on for hours at times. No frogs, bugs, birds etc. Tree structures are present here as well as rock throwing and other signs of activity.

Here is an amazing amount of baby catfish found about to find their way into a Plumas County California Lake - Just prior to the Dixie fire. Enjoy I did!

More Animals from Shasta County from Winter 2019

I brought a friend of mine out on March 18th, 2022 to install my Wildlife Acoustics SM4 recorder. It will record audio 24/7 for about 20 days. I return by myself without any protection so see what I may find and replace the batteries. Something had been there between trips. My next video will have a strange sample of audio recorded in the middle of the night from April 4th. Enjoy or not! Thanks for visiting Rumble, comment and Subscribe!
