#49 What's In The Woods? Pt. 2

Picture this: you’re hiking along a narrow trail, surrounded by the dense, whispering trees of the Cascade Mountains. The air is crisp, and the smell of damp earth fills your lungs as you navigate the winding path with a friend. Laughter mingles with the sound of your boots crunching on fallen leaves, but as you round a bend, the atmosphere shifts. A chill runs down your spine as you spot something out of the corner of your eye—a massive figure, partially hidden among the pines. You squint to try and focus but it’s gone in an instant. “Did you see that?” you ask your friend, but she shakes her head, oblivious. You press on, with your heart slightly racing, when suddenly you hear heavy steps pacing you along the dense trail. You turn to look again, and the air is filled with an eerie silence, as if the forest itself is holding its breath. You've heard the stories before dismissing them as folklore, but could this be it? Is this... Bigfoot?
 
Pack your camping supplies for this thrilling journey into the heart of God's mysterious world as the LR trio sets off to unravel the legend of Bigfoot! In this final episode of our journey, we venture into the dark woods, armed with flashlights, questionable survival skills, and Andrew's insatiable thirst for Mountain Dew.
 
Hike along as we explore paranormal encounters, stories from Native Americans, and the possible biblical explanation for this phenomena. What's in the woods? Could Sasquatch be something more than just a physical creature? Do YOU believe?

#48 What's In The Woods? Pt. 1

Picture this: a remote campsite under a blanket of stars, the crackle of the campfire filling the air with warmth and light. Laughter echoes through the trees as you and your friends share spooky stories, but suddenly, a loud branch snap slices through the night, silencing the group. You exchange nervous glances, each of you acutely aware that you’re not alone. Two heavy footsteps can be heard creeping closer to your campsite, and for a moment, everything seems to freeze. Two eyes shining form the light of the fire appear just beyond the glow of your campfire. You've always heard the stories of Sasquatch but have brushed it off as fake until now. Your heart pounds as you realize that the night is about to take a turn into the unknown.
