2009 Washington Cascades Expedition


This expedition is completely SOLD OUT, and there is no waiting list.

Dates: June 4-7, 2009 (Thurs. - Sun.)

This expedition will be the seventh public BFRO expedition in Washington State -- the third expedition in the Washington Cascades.

There are undoubtedly hundreds (if not thousands) of sasquatches scattered along the length of the Washington Cascades, but there is a particular location in the Cascades which has been thoughtfully cultivated by the Washington BFRO for a few years now. The sasquatches in that area have apparently become so accustomed to the annual visits by the BFRO, that they seem to have become more bold and interested each year.

The Washington BFRO is well known among the organization for their creative approaches to interaction with these animals. Their tactics emphasize the projection of friendly emotions and intentions toward these animals, as expressed by sounds, body language and general activity around the basecamp -- a camp which is visited consisentently on every expedition. The positive, inviting "vibe" projected by the WA-BFRO is very different than the cautious, nervous "vibe" that most people inadvertently project when these animals come near their camps at night.

We've tried to encourage this same approach with other state groups to see what would happen, but it is easier said than done. Only those who have had repeated close encounters with these animals can overcome their natural fear when they are approached. The Washington group has had the most experience in this regard. Why? There is probably more sasquatches in Washington State than anywhere else in the world. Why? Probably because of the consistency of the precipitation in the state (the western part of the state), which gives rise to an abundance of plant life, which in turn feeds an abundance of animal life, which in turn feeds apex predators like sasquatches.

The 2009 Cascades expedition is being organized by Washington BFRO investigator Kevin Jones.
