Dates: October 15- 18 (Thurs. - Sun.)
All of the previous BFRO expeditions in New York State have
focused on the Adirondacks Mountain region. The 2009 expedition will attempt
to locate sasquatches further south in New York state.
The specific mission of the 2009 New York expedition is to find the closest
sasquatches to New York City. The purpose for this is to enable selected
news media people from NYC to experience these animals for themselves.
It may require a few weekend camping trips for them, so a reliable area
needs to be identified which is not much further than a 2 hour drive from
Manhattan. It will likely be in the Catskills/Hudson River Valley, but
could also be near the Delaware Water Gap, or even in a rural portion
of Connecticut. Hence, the expedition may end up being outside New York
state, but will not be much further than 2 hours from NYC.
As we have seen elsewhere, a reliable habitat for sasquatches in this
region will be in an area with an abundant deer population.
BFRO investigator Nick Maione of Rhode Island (organizer
of the 2008 Maine expedition) will be leading this trip.
If you have information about sasquatches in southern NY state, or anywhere
within approx. 2 hours of NYC, please contact Nick at New_York@BFRO.net.
If you are interested in attending the 2009 expedition in October, please
see the Frequently Asked Questions page. before
contacting Nick at the email address shown above.
NY-BFRO on 2006 Expedition in the Adirondacks
The expedition group nterviews a witness in the Adirondacks. During a
flap of sightings and encounters around the town of Whitehall in the late
1970's a sasquatch came onto to this porch and rattled the screen door
one evening. It walked away when the homeowner approached the door and
shouted at it. A sasquatch was subsequently shot at by Whitehall police
officers a few miles away from this property -- likely the same animal.
Based on other incidents that happened around this town during the same
time frame, this particular sasquatch may have been trying to "surrender"
or trying to interact with the local humans, but was not well received.
