I was born and raised in Anchorage and I am half Athabascan Indian from Chitina in the Copper river valley area. Something I immediately noticed is that you guys were putting those cameras and screws on the trees with your bare hands. Those Kol"Eni Or "Bush Indians" as my people call them in our Ahtna region will smell your human scent all over those screws and trail cam. Your scent is totally alien to nature. It will know exactly where your equipment is by scent alone. I think you need to go quite a bit farther away from your cabin and stay out there during the night if you want to capture good footage and disguise your scent while you do it. My mom was the President of the Chitina(About 250 miles out into the bush from Anchorage.) board and I lived out in Copper center for a year. So we traveled back and forth from Anchorage to Chitina probably 50+ times and we would stay the weekends in Chitina. In all those 20 years or so of travel back and forth to Chitina my Grandma Rose Goodlataw who was born and raised in Chitina, and my ancestors always spoke of the "Bush Indians" and I never believed these Boogie man stories until one night almost 30 years ago when late one summer night the mother of my child Venessa(A white woman) and I were driving over the Copper river bridge and Bang, we saw it!! It was down below us about 50 feet and about 150 feet away and it was taking salmon out of the fish wheel. It looked up at us for a moment realizing it had been seen out in the open and just stared up at us for a couple seconds. Then it took off like a race horse and disappeared into the forest. The Bush Indians are known to be bigger, stronger, have sharp teeth and claws, and kidnap and eat people so I'd be very cautious. Personally after my encounter I won't go out into the Sticks without my bts-12 Semiautomatic gas-fed 12 guage shotgun and 10 round magazine and I keep it loaded with solid steel slugs. I also have bear mace, people mace, a 3 foot machete, and an ar-15 in my Suv for backup. I'm 6'2 and about 275lbs and built like a defensive lineman and I know I would have absolutely no chance against one of those 8+ foot tall creatures I saw that night. Just want to add- The Kol'Eni "Bush Indian" in my Ahtna Indian land is not the "Harry and the Hendersons" type of Bigfoot(Although I hate that term.) and is a sub-species or distant cousin to the other Sasquatch. Some call the species up here in Alaska and parts of Canada(There are a lot of Athabascans in Canada. Apache, Navajo, and Athabascans are the same people and speak the same language..we just migrated apart long ago.) the GENOSKWA. My grandmother Rose Goodlataw and our Eagle clan know these creatures to be pure evil and man-eaters. 2,250 people vanish in Alaska every single year, which is ridiculous considering we only have 600 something thousand people. So basically more than 1 in every 300 of us disappears into Alaska every single year.

No matter your views on Sasquatch, this is worth watching for the beauty of Alaska and its creatures.

I’m so glad you guys just show what you find. It’s not sensationalized or overacted. You just film the trip and expedition and share your findings. Great work!

Brilliant documentary. No exaggeration, no hyperbole and no wild assumptions. Cannot wait for you guys to return and get a host of thermal and pictorial evidence.

That shot of the 3 of you at the very top of that ridge looking all the way down. Is simply BREATHTAKINGLY beautiful.

That was a fantastic documentary!! It's dangerous to go kayaking in waters that cold when you don't know what your doing. Ron is very lucky that he wasn't alone. That could have had a different ending.

Thank you guys for doing what you do . I feel like a part of the gang when you let us come along on the adventure with these videos. Your hard work does not go unnoticed.

53:02 I’ve heard that noise camping recently. It happened 3 times from one spot then one time from a different position and another from even closer to us. Then randomly at 12am there was one more. It made the hair on the back of my neck stand up. We were miles into the national forest in an area we’ve had lots of other weird things happen.

Been waiting for part 2. Even without the Sasquatch hunting I love just seeing the beauty of Alaska up close.

So glad Ron was okay, they handled the kayak accident well.

That handprint had to be the best piece of evidence you guys found by that point.

Well, I learned that Sea Lions make terrifying noises 😬

Great work, guys. Truly fascinating stuff. I have a small suggestion. Two, actually. Cover your scent... and bring apples. Lots of apples for 'gifts'. These guys can smell you coming a miles away... and that scent permeates everything you leave behind, like trail cams and recording devices. And they do love 'em some apples! Hang a few Granny Smith's in a net bag 10-12 feet off the ground and offer the guy a snack.

I was born and raised in SE Alaska. Those mysterious gun shot noises sounded like humpback whales breaching. First time I heard it I was hunting by myself in a remote area. Scared me pretty good until I saw the whale breaching and a few seconds later the noise reaching me up the hill I was hiking.

In terms of location I'm guessing this was everyone's favourite to date, it definitely was mine. Absolutely stunning scenery. From London, UK

Thanks for having this journey, in future can you consider "asper National Park" in Canada, recently a man named Andrew Dawson died after he had reported something strange in the peak of mountains in National parks. He suddenly vanished according to locals authorities.

It looks like because of ground slope it put its hand about chest high to stabilize itself as it looked in window. Just a thought. It is what we would do to a much lower window of course. Great job guys!! Much time and money spent on this, and much appreciated!!!

Don’t sea otters use rocks to break open clams/mollusk? Could be a possible reason for some of the rock on rock noise, considering echoes etc , making it sound like it could be coming from the tree line.

54:36 Eli: "Oh yeah, that's the money shot" 😂 Love that

LOL that sea lion saw the camera and was like hell no lol 31:19

Great content, as a Bigfoot enthusiast I’m glad to have found this channel 👣

And that's how people become statistics. Fortunately you were rescued. 👍 I'm from Sitka,Ak and never use kayaks. Never underestimate weather and water conditions. "Sucker holes" = A seemingly calm sunny day that turns crappy real quick. Always take a change of clothes and survival gear. Glad you made it!

Awesome Christmas present, very curious to see what happens in part 2! Those were some of the best vocalisations I've ever heard in part 1

shout out to Scott, what a great bloke hosting ppl, huge W

Beautiful footage. When are we going back? ❤️

Beautiful cinematography! And the footage of the orcas was awesome!

WAY TO GO on the handprint Aleks!!!!! Eli...."oh yeah thats the money shot" absolutely gorgeous work gents! Keep it goin!

I’ll tell ya right now that big ol’ huge foot loves elevation...Mountains 🏔 , hills, mounds, and dense patches of tree near high cliffs to jump in, to avoid being discovered by anyone🤔, but for now keep up the good work Squatch🦶🏽

Corvids are EXTREMELY smart birds. They consist of; Ravens, Crows, Rooks, Jackdaws, Jays, Magpies, and Nutcrackers. They develop VERY strong family bonds with each other with young often helping parents rear chicks. They are also fascinated by bright shiny objects such as marbles and will often "cache" them. I've been in the avian field for nearly 30yrs now having worked "hands on" with everything from Warblers to Birds of Prey. Ravens and Crows are also excellent at learning human words and with clarity on par or better then many known parrots. So it wouldn't surprise me in the least if Ravens were the culprit of these rock drops. They are large birds at 24-27in with about a 4.5ft wingspan weighing in around 2.5lbs. And their beaks are very sharp and large so lifting a good size rock wouldn't be a problem for them at all.

Nice work guys. Only suggestion: Mount cameras 15-20 feet up on the trees and angle looking downward above game trail. This will help mask scent and reduce long range IR illumination. Best trail cam pics to date are from up high.

I bet you the gunsgot noise you heard was the glacier shifting up the valley from the cabin. Wonderfully done video 👍

Alaskan here, the story's I hear about the hairy man is crazy. Also, deer are not on the peninsula, only in Kodiak and Sitka, Alaska. It is always entertaining to watch people not accustom our land, explore our land and see the amazement of our forest, land, and wildlife.. Our life is beyond blessed to live this daily..

Re the "gunshot", might it be the (relatively) nearby glacier losing a massive chunk of ice? Just a thought...

Hi Guys , Marie from South Wales UK 🇬🇧 WELL........ This Part 2 was Definitely Worth Waiting For . The Night Times are So Spooky you just Don't Know what is Going to Happen Next . Stay Safe Out There , just Love your Adventures, they are Awesome. 😲😲👣👣👣👣👣👣💖

I enjoyed this upload, from other youtube channels I know now that Sasquatch exist. You have another subscriber.

My understanding is, the alaskan coastal sasquatch is the most aggressive and territorial. Noting the town of Portlock, AK, where there were documented disappearances. I theorize that Alaska may be their "summer home". Possibly even reflecting generational behavior left over from the ice bridge from Siberia. Well done, gentlemen.

Something to consider when setting up trail cams etc is to try to conceal the human scent on the items, if it's a thing for deer hunting I'd imagine anything else might share the same senses

Me thinks the bangs that Eli captured audibly......when Rob Roy left.....was when the hand print was left on the back of the cabin.

Never mind the Sasquatches I enjoyed this for the Beauty, wildlife and relaxing music great work and what a vacation

Since sea otters are active day and night.could the "clacking" sounds be sea otters breaking open mussels with rocks near shore?

This is an awesome series. You guys did great work here. As a young veteran I would love to get into contact with the owner of that cabin share war stores and see the beautiful area up there. You guys definitely earned a sub!

Outstanding Film, I am looking forward to you going back and seeing what you capture! You caught some amazing audio! Oh, and no way Ravens were throwing those rocks, Lol! That is nuts!!

A beautiful place to live. You lucky man💙 I so enjoyed the video. Thankyou

Aw man... absolutely great stuff. I have had a couple encounters with bigfoot myself. We did a lot of camping in northern Minnesota and Wisconsin when I was a kid. I would love to visit this spot for myself. 👏

Outstanding cinematography!

Awesome as usual, great bunch of guys, humble, no exaggeration. Love your movies

I think placing glow in the dark objects on the beach and in some other “strategical” areas that are visible from cabin/upper fire pit at night would of been a good, low maintenance tactic. IMHO All of a sudden, the glowing ball gets picked up and all u see is that its coming towards u….fast! 😂😳🤯 Gonna need some new drawers… Awesome footage! Big Ups to everyone involved in this project! Especially the owner! What an amazing piece of property! Ty guys

My buddy lives in Southern Alaska and has promised me a trip there next Summer! I envy you guys for visiting that majestic land full of paranormal events!

I've been waiting for this !! Love what you do guys. Totally fascinating to me . Many don't believe. I myself find it hard not to .

It's a masterpiece, like a Hollywood film!!! Very interesting and captivating.

That knock sound, sounded like a rock hitting a tree. You figure if they throw them they can't all fly true. Keep up the good work guys. I love your videos. 👍🙏✌️

I'm so there!!! We celebrate Christmas Eve, & apparently we're facing a huge snowstorm this Christmas weekend, so this is just perfect!!

I would love to see the teams split into two, and one camp while the other stays in a boat, changing locations each night round the bay. To get both perspectives would be great.

I live In Alaska, There is thermal expansion in wood structures, They create a knocking sound when the temp drops

It was cool to hear one of my fav pieces of music, Bigfoot, by Belle Fleck and the Flecktones. Awesome job, thanks guys!

I'm just embarking on this video, but before watching it I want to thank STM's creators for this and to say I loved part one, as I do all of the content they're kind enough to share with us.

Try hanging a glass prism up about 9ft high, about 100ft from the cabin or an area you have a clear line of sight from your shelter area and point a high power laser at it at random times of day and night to see if you can get reaction of some sort and catch distortions on video of things

Thank god Ron is alright. My god i live on the coast here on Cape Cod, MA i know what it's like when you flip a kayak in choppy water. If you don't know how to "right yourself" you can very easily DROWN...!!! Or at the very least go into hypothermia REALLY fast. So it can turn pretty bad very quickly. Glad that he's alright. Another great documentary. The scenes are just stunning.

Another beautiful video! The scenery is unbelievably gorgeous! Scott, his family and friends are so blessed to have such a wonderful sanctuary to retreat to. Again, you all do a great job with filming and editing. I am glad you got to go there and film the nature and wild life. Thank you so much and thank you for sharing!

I thoroughly enjoyed both videos, they were exciting and beautifully edited. Great vocal captures and visual as well. Great vids

That was a great time, I wish I could have stayed longer. great job on the series! Area A is always an adventure!

The time lapse cameras not having anything on them just shows you that the wild life stays as far away from us as possible.

Catching and eating fillet fish my whole life in south Florida I wouldn't show this video to an islander! Or a Skunkape Lol! It looks like a good time!

Absolutely beautiful! You guys are great, I know one day your patience will pay off.

I know the UK is absolutely tiny compared to the US but over here there have been some interesting sightings of similar creatures as to the ones you've been documenting.

I've been waiting for this lets goo

THAT NOISE NEAR THE UPPER CAMP FIRE TO ME SOUNDS LIKE STONES BANGING TOGETHER. LIKE YOU SEE RE-ENACTED IN VIKING CAMPS WHEN THEY'RE CHIPPING AWAY AT FLINT.

This was a tremendous show to end the year STM, Great work and big hug to you all.

Beautiful job, guys. An honest look into incredible phenomena in a pristine and idyllic location! :D Fantastic!!!

They are masters at imitating all kinds of sounds Like trucks and cars and train People have heard those noises right in the middle of the woods where there are no road anywhere near ... that gun shot was them lol

MAGNIFIQUE ALASKA - WONDERFULL ALASKA 🥰

Vi ste najboljša iskalna ekipa kar sem jih kdaj videl in zdi se mi da ne gre za potegavščino. Upam da vam uspe najti to bitje ki ga iščete. Vso srečo in upma da bom lahko tudi jaz imel take odprave kot vi. Hvala vam za ta zanimiv dokumentarec

Absolutely outstanding. You keep outdoing yourselves.

This was very interesting and felt authentic not forced or staged. I really appreciate this natural approach and filming. Keep up the great work. Stay safe and blessed guys!!!❤🐾🌟

The splashing is beavers slapping their tails, and the wood knocks are the beavers chopping down trees with their axes.

Thought the sasquatch could of at least been at the water's edge waving you off lol.Amazing scenery & interesting audio.They're so elusive & highly intelligent.

Bravo Small town Monsters, and the Beyond the Trail crew!

Very interesting documentary.Excellent camera work throughout the whole show! I don't know what to make of the possible hand print but either way it's very interesting! As far as location goes I'm pretty sure there are a small number of Sasquatch in or around that area.Alaska is such a HUGE place.I've never been there but I'd like to one day.Anyways great show guys! Very enjoyable to watch.You guys should really consider coming to Nordegg,Alberta Canada.I could take you guys to some pretty interesting areas. The Nordegg area has a huge history as far as Sasquatch in Alberta goes.You guys should consider it. It's a massive area! Not like Alaska obviously but it's very forested and has lots of water resources and food resources! If you never are interested contact me.

I thoroughly enjoyed Part 1 and Part2. Thank you very much. Have a blessed week.

Really enjoyed both parts of this I was glued to every moment! Brilliant!

The thumping that was recorded. Is there a chance that was from the hand print that you discovered? The sound of the metal flexing from pressure being applied could have been that same noise. Excellent documentary! I am very much enjoying your content.

Outstanding production gentlemen. Quality filming and an exciting adventure in God’s Country. Keep ‘em coming and stay safe out there.

I would set up an apple jack still, make a big pot of apple jack, steam it up, let the smell waft through the forest. You'll get your picture no doubt. They''ll be coming around the mountain right into your campsite for a meet and greet.

loved this and can't wait for the next one, I hope you find where they live Eli :D and Alex don't be too frustrated, your doing more than most. x

Thank you guys! Hope you all have a Merry Christmas, and a wonderful New Year!

To all experiencing bad blizzards do what you can to survive and may god be with you

To be in such a beautiful remote part of the Planet must be very humbling. Thanks for the journey!

Awesome thankyou,watching from New Zealand 🇳🇿

14:49 interesting the possible orb…. maybe just a dust particle? seemed to move oddly across the video with the camera being stationary.

Too many cultures in the world independently have BigFoot(We call it Almasti) stories, even isolated ones, on different continents... Like, my grandmother was from a very isolated small tribe from Caucasian mountains, and she was telling my stories how she and her mother saw a female BF in a corn field. It was the early 1900s.. My uncle( huntsman for 20+years) saw something that looked like a BF in the CentralAsia mountains several times. Once, it entered their cabin at night while he and his 2 friends were having rest at night. It checked out the food leftovers on the table, then looked at three 3 sleeping men for a while and left the cabin. nonetheless, .. there're always animals in forests, and stones always fall from cliffs, branches constantly break and fall. So I'd like to see more videos than audios.. we have jackals making Baby-crying sounds, idk if you have them in Alaska

Absolutely incredible, amazing movie guys, i loved every second of it. I also subscribed to your channel, i love watching sas explores, especially in alaska or canada

I thoroughly enjoyed this project and eagerly await the next one. Thanks and well done.

I would like to see someone play a bunch of the recordings for some apes to see how they react. Maybe even the Sierra sounds. I have heard dogs and cats freak out over different recordings.

Aleksandr and Eli, you guys always do an excellent job. Thank you for being sincere and honest in what you present, goes along way. Merry Christmas from an Aussie brother.

From philippines here.. i love this documentary stm... The scenery and wildlife is breathtaking..

Thanks for uploading, I watched part 1 on Tubi and couldn't find part 2. Beautiful place.

It would be an absolute dream to go on an expedition with you guys!!! I love this channel. Merry Christmas to all of you.

Literally here waiting for part 2 just watched part 1! Brilliant loved it!

Your edits are excellent! Subbed. 💯

I worked in Alaska for about 7 months, everyone hunts it's just part of the culture. I would occasionally ask the locals if they had ever seen or know anyone who had seen a Bigfoot. They would usually just laugh and say no!
