This one is, you know, reminiscent of tales we heard from John Redbird Dover on the Navajo Ranger episodes that we did with him. You know, Ethan lives right smack in the middle of Southern Ute and Navajo territory, right along the mountain range that that
this sort of buff buffers up to all of that. And he had a terrifying, terrifying encounter. And he's here to share for the first time with us on blurry creatures. So he's in a Wendigo's backyard, pretty much right in his pool house. He's got a big backyard in Wendigo. Yeah.

Chapter 4: What details does Ethan provide about the San Juan Mountains?
So check it out. And let's get Ethan on the show to tell about this terrifying night in January of last year. People drive their cars, Luke. I drove a lot of miles around the United States. I probably drove 600,000 to 700,000 miles around the country playing shows. Never saw anything weird come out of the bushes. But people do, and they email us, and they have these stories.
One of my favorites was a Bigfoot keeping up pace with a trucker as he looked out the window going 75. Bigfoot's just running alongside of him. Welcome to the show, Ethan. You have one of these stories. It's a little different, a little scarier. What are your thoughts on Bigfoot?
You're in Bigfoot country and you emailed us a story and you saw something and we want to, we want to ask you some questions. So welcome, welcome blurry creatures.
Chapter 5: How does Ethan's background influence his perspective on the encounter?
What are your thoughts on the big guy? Yeah, so like I told you all, it's just awesome to be able to share this story and have a platform where we can do this. So Bigfoot, I personally have never seen the big guy, as Luke calls it. Yeah, I've never seen him. I've heard all the stories. I got hooked on your guys' podcast.
Ironically, on a Colorado road trip with my wife, camping in the various parts of the mountains with the woods. And it probably wasn't the smartest thing. We listened to specifically that Wendigo episode with the two police officers. Bro, that's the one to do if you're going camping. Reminds me, dude, I was in high school or college. I think college when the Blair Witch Project came out.
Remember that? You guys remember this one? And they kind of made it feel like you didn't know if it was real or if it was a movie.
Chapter 6: What specific events led up to the skinwalker sighting?
And they filmed it that way. I literally watched it like the day before we went camping. And it's a horrifying story, which was terrifying to go camping that way. But I was some buddies and stuff. So I started stacking rocks outside their tents because they all watched it with us, which is what happens in the Blair Witch Project. So I can relate to that. Yeah, of course, dude. Right.
You're like, I think it was Bucks Lake. Shout out to NorCal. Doing that, scaring yourself before you go spend time in the woods is one way to do it. What happened was, is I stumbled on your guys' podcast through the Unashamed crew, their two podcasts, because I listen to their stuff. So I heard you guys talking about it, and I was intrigued of some of the stuff you were talking about.
Why don't we talk about this as Christians? And so I stumbled into the Wendigo podcast, and then the John Dover podcast of Bigfoot in this area, and Skinwalkers, and
Chapter 7: What were the physical characteristics of the creature Ethan witnessed?
We just went down a rabbit hole and started binge listening for like five days as we're driving. And so the running joke was we're just going to see something nuts and just die out here in the woods. With that, I haven't actually seen Bigfoot. My thoughts are there are so many opinions and so many stories and so many different things that people have seen.
It's hard for me to even pin down what Bigfoot is other than the consistent big, hairy, monstrous-looking creature. Because some of them, you got the telepathic stories, and then you got stories about, I shot a Bigfoot in the woods, and the government took the photo of it and said it was a bear. The furthest dive in the eeriness of Bigfoot.
the woods, two occasions I've been in the woods, and it felt like I was being watched, but I didn't actually ever see anything. One time in Springfield, Missouri, when I was down in college, and then another time a few years ago here, I went hiking with my son up in the mountains here to a little place called Potato Lake in North Durango, and
and it was early and i was just walking and i just had for about 10 minutes this feeling of something was watching me it's just that sixth sense that everybody talks about um and so my son he's only two and we're walking it's a good 30 minute hike which isn't a long time in the grand grand scheme of hikes but when you got a two-year-old and that's about it nobody else on the trail they're hugging tight and real like all right
So whatever we're about to do, it's going to happen. So nothing happened, but yeah, I've never seen the guy, but I know what I do know is there's something out there. There has to be something out there. There's too many stories and too many encounters and too many, just honestly, I believe it's proof out there that there's something out there.
It's just hard to pin down if, if it's a spiritual thing only, or if it's flesh and blood or if it's always both or if,

Chapter 8: What are Ethan's reflections on sharing his story with the community?
Cause there's all kinds of them throughout the world. So what I do know is there's definitely something out there pulling with us. You know, you guys were talking about dirty jobs before the, like Mike Rowe talking about your old jobs and maybe Bigfoot's just the janitor of the woods and he's just, he's not having a good day cause he's out there. He's got to take care and clean up everything.
You know, it's interesting. It's interesting though. Like you're, I've had that feeling too. Ethan, like way back when, in my early 20s, I was working at a summer camp in Northern California. And what ended up happening with us was it wasn't a Bigfoot, it was a mountain lion. And the scariest thing about that is you kind of get that sense of being watched, but you don't see anything. Right.
And then you do, which is for us, it was like all of a sudden there was a big cat. 100 yards down the trail i was it is no thanks my favorite meme was the guy made a video like that and then he he's like a cougar's watching me and attack me turns around and it's like his buddy dressed as an old woman going coming at him and uh That's not why we're here today. That's not why we're here.
That was ridiculous. This is not the kind of story we're looking for. They're good stories, though. Ethan, you've got a... You don't have a Bigfoot encounter, but you have something. You saw the worst of the worst. You start at the beginning for us. How long ago was this? You live out near Durango in
small town called bayfield colorado and it's on the edge of the san juan mountains can you kind of talk about when this was and kind of explain what this what this area is like folks that haven't been out that way you know how remote is it what is it like etc Yeah, of course. So this area, and like I said at the beginning, I'm still a student of this area. I've lived here about five years.
Uh, my wife was born and raised here. So it's a very different culture than where I grew up from, um, back in Kansas city, man, the stories in Kansas city, they're all just like school stories. And then you get out here and the culture out here is extremely tribal. You've got the Southern Ute, you have the Navajo, uh, I work with a Navajo team. I lead that team.
And they're very spiritual people, which is interesting because when I told them, I started to tell them about this story. And they were like, no, no, no, I don't want to talk about that. And I knew that. I knew that was some of them are open to talk about and some of them aren't.
So I learned a little bit about my crew of kind of where they're at in the spiritual security when it comes to what I saw. But this area is very heavy in the tribal culture. It's very heavy in a Western culture. Yeah, we're right on the edge of the San Juan Mountains. And I know there's stories around here of people seeing things.
I go to a men's breakfast every Friday and I told them my story and they're like, yeah, that's happened to me. And I'm like, what? You've never told me this? Yeah. So, it's not unheard of for just to see stuff around here. So, yeah, I mean, where I'm at, I'm about 20 minutes outside of Durango, Colorado. Durango is the, quote, big city in the Southwest area. And by big, it's not big.
