Shares of Sasquatch Encounters in Alaska

Late in the fall season, Benjamin and his wife Sheila were given permission to use a friend's remote cabin situated a little over a hundred yards off the Susitna River, upstream from the Deshka River mouth. Their friends escorted them upriver in a pair of skiffs to teach Benjamin the river channel and how to de-winterize the cabin before leaving the couple to enjoy an isolated anniversary getaway. That evening, as high winds picked up and a fall storm set in, both were gripped by an intense, unnatural feeling of being watched.

During a spring seal hunt on the windswept far west coast of Alaska, Gabriel and his younger cousin Lenny were set up in a driftwood blind when the wind shifted, bringing an overwhelming, putrid stench of rotting meat. Feeling an intense, sudden sense of being watched, the two men temporarily abandoned their blind. While regrouping in the towering coastal sawgrass, Lenny spotted a massive, dark figure pacing them in the distance. Investigating the area, they discovered massive, 20-inch humanoid footprints deeply sunk into the coastal mud.

Stanley, an avid pilot, inherited a beautifully hand-built, profoundly remote cabin on a private body of water he renamed Devil's Lake. Accessible only by floatplane, the pristine property had been a place of whimsical childhood memories. However, upon arriving for his first solo trip in his Piper Super Cub, an intense, overwhelming feeling of dread and scrutiny washed over him as he tied the plane to the temporary dock. Armed with a shorty shotgun and a .357 magnum, he rushed toward the cabin—only to hear a sharp, crisp whoop echo from the nearby brush.

Tyler and Jacob were hired by a family friend named Sophie to winterize her aging home on the remote outskirts of an undisclosed Alaskan village. While replacing the exterior skirting on the house, the men noticed that Sophie's Pomeranian—who had been yapping constantly from inside the windbreak—had suddenly gone dead silent. Investigating the silence, they found the dog petrified and shivering in the corner. Above the trembling dog, the top of the door was warped inward, and a massive, greasy handprint reeking of death and body odor was smeared roughly nine feet up the doorframe.

Less than 72 hours after their terrifying escape from the remote Nushagak River cabin, brothers Douglas and Thomas were forced to return. During their frantic evacuation, Douglas's wife had left behind her vital, irreplaceable cancer medications. Accompanied by a heavily armed elder relative who had previous experience with the "hairy man" in the region, the trio traveled back to the Bristol Bay wilderness to retrieve the life-saving satchel.

In mid-June, two brothers named Douglas and Thomas reunited after a 12-year separation for a camping trip at a relative's remote cabin on the Nushagak River in the Bristol Bay area. Accompanied by Douglas's wife, the trio enjoyed a peaceful first day watching fishing guide boats drift by. However, the relaxing reunion was shattered on the second morning when Thomas spotted a massive entity lurking behind the property's outhouse.

In August 2026, Gus and Sophie, along with their adult son and young niece, traveled by four-wheeler to an isolated berry-picking spot. Leaving their village near Norton Sound, the family rode for nearly two hours to reach an untouched patch of tundra. Along the way, the young niece, visiting from Anchorage, repeatedly expressed a feeling of unease, though the family initially attributed it to her being unfamiliar with the remote Alaskan wilderness.
