Sasquatch - Wiitala, Russell

. .

Résumé :
On a sunny day in May of 2007, my friend, Russell Wilson, who told me about a family seeing sasquatch just outside of town. I was immediately taken by the thought that they might exist and I became obsessed with the idea of finding out for myself. After four years of searching, we had found nothing more than one possible sixteen-inch print. I was feeling discouraged and was beginning to have the thought that it was time to quit when I experienced a strong odor and heard three very distinct knocks not far away. That incident renewed my enthusiasm and was the first of what has become frequent interaction with sasquatch. At my core, I'm just a curious being. It is as simple as that. I have always wanted to know the secrets of the universe. It turns out that I was chosen for this, perhaps before birth. Perhaps that is why I was born different and with a sense of wonder about the realm we live in and beyond. Am I superior? No, just different. We all shine with our own light. The truth is most don't realize they are on fire. Everyone one of us are part of this universal fire and it is part of us. We all participate in the manifestation of our reality. You could call it God and I would be fine with that. I have gone from atheist to very spiritual during this journey. That is because I have been shown and felt very unique experiences that have converted me to my current beliefs. The entities I've interacted with would tell you that I was not easy to convince. They have had to show me everything and in doing so, made my journey fantastical. I feel very lucky to have been chosen for whatever this is? I believe it has something to do with a reveal, perhaps to prepare humanity. ...

Biographie:
Russell Wiitala was born in May of 1952, in Vancouver Washington. He spent his first 12 years growing up in a Portland suburb. At that time, the suburbs were rapidly expanded, yet there were still woods and fields to play in and explore. He has always had a great affinity for the wilderness. When Russell was 12, his parents invested in a motel located in Grants Pass Oregon. Russell was living there when the famous P/G film of a female bigfoot at Bluff creek California was filmed, not far from Grants Pass. Russell was aware of the event, but did not become too obsessed with it at the time. He graduated from Astoria High School and went into the Navy a few months later. After his tour of duty, he attended Oregon State University for almost three years. Then, moved to Bay Center Washington and learned how to gillnet salmon with his father, eventually owning his own boat and commercial fishing license. He also worked in the oyster beds and built crab pots. In 1980 he began working for the U.S. post office as a rural carrier until his retirement in 2007. Along the way, Russell learned how to fly and owned two different aircraft during his flying days. He began to participate in the local theater productions. He also became a good water skier and even learned how to ski a slalom course. When he retired, he received a job offer to become a snow ski instructor, but turned it down. Russell has spent a lot of time out in the wilderness hiking and backpacking. Only once, that he can remember, did he have a possible encounter with sasquatch while fishing in the early eighties. It consisted of nothing more than some rocks coming off of a ridge. After retirement, Russell heard about a local family who had seen sasquatch on a hike. That prompted his search for the legendary creature.
