Those Who Dared
“Sure, I’ve seen a yamprico. Lots of us Indians have. They’re what the white man calls Bigfoot or some such. We’ve got lots of names for them, too, but it always means some kind of wild person who’s bigger than us. Monster, my foot!
“This Apache’s too durned old to lie, and too mean to give a hoot what any scientist or religious nut believes. That’s the same crew who thought the world was flat and, when they first saw us, they thought they’d got to India. Talk about being ignorant! And, do you think the yampricos give one diddly-darn if those characters believe they exist or not? Those giants don’t care, neither do I, and neither should you. Go look for yourself. My adopted son Guynatay [Robert W. Morgan] can show you how.”
— Ciyé Nino Cochise, Tombstone, AZ
“I’ve been a hunter all my life. What I saw only yards away from Steve Jones and me was no bear; it was a Bigfoot or, as Robert calls them, a Forest Giant Person. I’ve seen their tracks and I’ve heard them too many times to have any doubts. Morgan’s methods taught me exactly what to do and what to look for. It worked for me.”
— Glenn Adkins, Louisville, OH
“I first met Robert W. Morgan when he was a guest on my radio and television shows. While I never disbelieved the stories I’d heard about Bigfoot, I just wasn’t totally convinced — that is, until I met this man. He didn’t just convince me by talking; he showed them to me on the night of August 30, 1992. Now I’ll look anyone straight in the eye — and this includes skeptical scientists with credentials a mile long — and tell them that I’ve personally seen a living Bigfoot. It was no fake, and he was close enough to touch.
“Working with Robert gave me the most incredible adventure of my life.”
— Steve Jones, Outdoorsman, Atwater, OH
“Having worked as a professional recording engineer in Hollywood for over 20 years had me thinking that I’d heard nearly every sound that exists. I was wrong. Morgan and I were deep in the woods in southern Ohio one night with no flashlights and no guns. No fakers could have known where we were because it had been a midnight hike taken on impulse — not Morgan’s, but my own. He allowed me to choose our destination so there was no chance of my being set up.
“We were alone in a deep ravine that had a creek running through it. The forest was completely around us. As we entered, Morgan gave one of his calls. Damned if we didn’t get a response. The further we went, the more calls we received. We realized there were two of them approaching us from separate sides of that creek. Then, everything went dead silent and you could cut the tension with a knife. Without warning, it seemed as if every animal in the world had surrounded us to yell and jabber angrily all at the same time. Morgan and I backed away. It appeared that we had unintentionally fooled those Giants who may have been sentries who expected another band to join them. They were not happy campers. We left. The bottom-line is this: Robert knows what he’s talking about.”
— Scott Church, formerly of The Enterprise Studios, Los Angeles, CA
“I saw my first Bigfoot while I was out riding my horse near the Ohio-Pennsylvania border. I’ve seen two giants more since then. They are not bears; it’s what we call Windigo. As a Native American of the Seneca Nation, I know they exist — and so does my close friend and spiritual brother, Robert Morgan.”
— Victoria Sommers, Seneca Tribe, Poland, OH
“Robert W. Morgan is one of the first persons to seriously investigate and research the mystery known as Sasquatch, or Bigfoot. Robert has spent many years conducting active Bigfoot field research, and he has amassed a considerable amount of knowledge and wisdom, which he presents concisely in the Bigfoot Observer’s Field Manual. I’ve been involved in active Bigfoot research for several years and have used the concepts and principles as presented by Robert in the Bigfoot Observer’s Field Manual. Using his methods, I have had a number of very close Sasquatch encounters as have several members of my research team. If you are serious about researching Bigfoot, you will want this book for your library.”
C. Leigh Culver, Atlanta, Georgia
“Since Robert taught me what to look for I’ve found giant 16” tracks all on my own and I’ve heard sounds no human that I know could make. It’s wonderful to know these wild giant people are out there. I just love it!”
— Alice Mehaffey, Homeworth, OH
“Working with Robert erased my initial skepticism. My husband and the others in our team had fallen asleep by the campfire when I noticed Robert pacing about. I joined him for a late night walk along a road bordering a remote valley in southern Ohio. When we reached a point above a narrow valley that held a small creek, we sensed something was walking parallel to us. Being a moonless night, it was too dark to see what it was. Suddenly, we heard incredible slapping and thumping sounds that I cannot explain in any other rational way except it had to be Bigfoot. Then, as Robert taught us what to look for in their handiwork and manually created signs and toys, I began seeing our forests much differently than ever before. Do the Forest Giant People really exist? Well, something highly intelligent is out there, that’s for sure.”
— Trisha Adkins, Louisville, OH
Our Agreement
Yah-ta-hey. Welcome! May I assume that you are interested in Forest Giants and wish to arrange your very own peaceful encounter? I won’t tell you that it is easy. Nevertheless, it is possible and even probable — but only if you follow to the letter the systematic suggestions contained within this manual.
Take care, my friend. This journey is not for everyone. It is best taken by special people who wish to contribute something positive toward making our world a better place, not only for the human species, but also for every living thing.
If you choose to proceed, as kindred adventurers you and I must form an immutable bond. If you ask that, I assume that you sincerely wish to stand face-to-face with that wondrous legend some call the Bigfoot or the Sasquatch. In return, you may assume that I can and will share certain things of value that can assist you to achieve that goal.
My sole request is that, in exchange for my counsel, you must promise on your most sacred honor that you will not attempt to kill, capture, harass, or to interfere in any way with the lives and the welfare of these gentle Giants.
Words of caution are in order. To be successful you must remain true to that promise. If you do not, things might not turn out the way you wish — and turn out in ways you cannot imagine. However, by shining the light of good intention into the deepest recesses of your own mind and soul, you may soon be poised to uncover the truth about many, many things — and your life will forever change.
STEP ONE: Where to Begin?
It is critical that you set aside every preconception about where the Forest Giants might or might not be. From this moment on you must gain your expertise only through your own academic preparation, you must follow it up with hands-on field examinations, and you must never again rely on anyone’s research or conclusions other than your own — and that includes mine.
Don’t bother lacing up your hiking boots just yet. I cannot overstress how important this opening phase of your mission is — and if you truly wish to have an encounter, it will involve some serious homework.
Are you up to it? Good! So, where do you begin? Start by grabbing a fresh pad of paper and a fistful of sharp pencils and prepare to scour the internet for specific information — but only for that data which applies directly to your immediate area. Moreover, do not ignore your local library or that of your community college, university, or the archives of your local newspaper and your historical society. These can be literal goldmines — even though they may not know it. Hints can be as good as facts if you know how to read them. Also, do not be deterred by “funny” or “mysterious” encounters described by local news reporters. Remember that they make their living not by doing all that much on their own but by reporting events in the lives of others. Moreover, many newspapers cater to news that entertains rather than stimulates thought. It’s that circulation thing.
Everything begins with that list of reports and how you analyze them. To be fully prepared for your encounter you must perform the following seven tasks precisely. If you overlook a single step, your efforts may be fruitless.
