October 17 (Thursday) - October 20 (Sunday)
BFRO organizers bring participants to areas where they will have
encounters with Bigfoots at night. The odds of success depend on their
selection of locations, among other things. Selecting the best location in
a state for a given time of year
depends upon sighting/encounter information -- the more, the better -- so
the BFRO selects organizers who have the most information in a given
state, and who have experience organizing trips there.
The BFRO invesitgator organizing the
2024 trip in Texas is the most experienced bigfoot expedition
organizers in the state:: Mike Janakes.
The 2024 was originally
scheduled for May but needed to be postponned. The area Mike is focusing
on (different than previous location) is likely the most reliable bigfoot
area in the entire state of Texas.
The
BFRO now encourages all attendees to have three types of optical devices
that are very helpful on trips like these. These devices are not
mandatory, but we would like each attendee to have at least one of these
devices:
1) Old fashioned daylight
video camera with 50x *optical* zoom -- basically a small telescope
that records video. ($400)
2) Small
thermal camera
with 4x zoom for use at night. (BFRO brand = $1000)
3) Small
daylight
drone with excellent zoom camera. (DJI Air 3 = $1,550).
Among these three items, the one you will find most helpful in a bigfoot
area is a thermal camera. Without this type of device it is unlikely that
you will spot and record any animals in the dark.
The BFRO sells
high-resolution (384 lines)
thermal cameras for much lower than retail price, because we want as many
people as possible to afford them. See BFRO homepage for more info about
those cameras. Click on thermal image of the guy with a dog. You will not
regret owning one of those devices. A good thermal video camera is MUCH
more useful for squatching than the best nightvision video camera.
To reserve a slot for the 2024 Texas expedition you must contact the organizers.
To contact them you must follow the instructions on the Expedition
FAQ page. Please read that whole FAQ page before contacting them.

Mike
Janakes has been leading and attending public and private
bigfoot expeditions in Texas since 2010, some co-organized
with Sybilla Irwin. He has checked out many the East Texas
hotspots known to many bigfoot researchers, and he has found
several hotspots of his own.
He is president of a
large company based in Texas. His talents are well
demonstrated in his level of preparation for an expedition,
and his scouting, his location targetting, and his skill in
the woods at night.
Mike has had more than one close
encounter with bigfoots in Texas. He knows how to get into
their areas at night and bring them around.
