Unforgettable 1924 Clash at Ape Canyon! #EnigmaCast 101

Unforgettable 1924 Clash at Ape Canyon! #EnigmaCast 101

In this thrilling episode of #enigmacast Sasquatch Steve and I revisit one of the most scary and mysterious encounters in Bigfoot lore—the 1924 Battle of Ape Canyon. What really happened when five prospectors in the shadow of Mount St. Helens claimed they were besieged all night by hair-covered “mountain devils”? Was it a hoax, a hidden tribe, or proof of something far older lurking in the Pacific Northwest?

🪓 Episode Highlights
• The harrowing attack that turned Goat Gorge into the legendary Ape Canyon.
• Connections to Native American lore of the Si’atk tribe and the Seraphine Long abduction.
• The Forest Service investigation and the persistent reports that still haunt the region.
• Why some believe the “mountain devils” weren’t Bigfoot at all—but a lost race of giants.

Join the discussion as we examine eyewitness testimony, historic reports, and Native traditions to separate myth from memory. Could this century-old encounter be the origin of America’s Bigfoot legend—or something even stranger?
