Nuthatches get their common name from their habit of wedging large nuts into tree bark, then smacking them with their sharp bill to “hatch” out the seed from the inside. They often traverse tree trunks sideways and upside down as they forage. International Dawn Chorus Day is the worldwide celebration of nature’s symphony.

According to SSP Manager Zach Taylor about six park visitors have reported seeing or hearing “something” they believed might have been “Bigfoot” while visiting the park. On Saturday, March 11, Jim Myers spoke to approximately 40 SSP volunteers and staff about Sasquatch, or “Bigfoot.” Jim and his wife, Daphne, own and operate the Sasquatch Outpost in Bailey. Nearly three years ago, the Myers family moved into the upstairs of the Bailey Country Store and spent nine months restoring this building, which had been built in 1878. They opened the store and sold food items, souvenirs and local books, as well as Sasquatch-related items. The building now functions as an outpost and soon will host the Sasquatch Encounter Museum, which opened in April 2016. (Identify yourself as an SSP Volunteer for free admission) According to Myers, every state in the continental USA has reported Bigfoot sightings. The most sightings have been in the East, West and in the Colorado areas. In addition, every continent (except Antarctica) has reported strange occurrences relating to large hairy creatures that walk on two feet. Every Native American tribe, according to Myers, has a name for Bigfoot, and stories about this creature have been handed down for centuries. While these stories are shared and handed down in Native American cultures, in other cultures such sightings are usually kept secret for fear of ridicule. Myers presented several maps that displayed the distribution of local sightings, indicating that Sasquatch has been seen near Lion’s Head, Shaffers Crossing and Pine Junction. Sasquatches are said to make quite a bit of noise, such as shaking or rattling trees, clattering and throwing rocks. They are said to be quite tall—seven to nine feet tall, covered with dark furry hair, and with enormous feet. They have always been observed standing upright on two feet. Myers believes that Sasquatches are highly intelligent and have exceptional hearing. They have been known to run very fast, can easily run up steep hills and can have strides as long as 12 feet. A female Sasquatch has been observed as well. Skeptics claimed it was a human dressed in a furry gorilla suit. These claims go back to the 1960s. Experts in costuming have reported that the technology was not available at that time to create such an elaborate costume. This creature was photographed running, with two large bouncing breasts. Her legs had a tendon flex, hollows behind the knees, MARMOT MESSENGER 3 and visible calf muscle. Her forearms were very long. Experts concurred that it was not possible that this was a human in a costume. Prints of possible adult and baby Sasquatch have been seen near Wellington Lake. Trees bent in unusual ways have been found in areas near Sasquatch sightings. Aspen trees have been found broken in half, with several in one area, then a fair distance away, more of the same. Other trees have been found mysteriously turned upside down with roots pointing in the air and positioned against another tree. Star-type arrangements of trees 70-80 feet long have also been found. Some may claim that weird wind patterns caused these trees to end up in strange positions; Sasquatch believers, however, believe that these super-powerful and very large creatures are responsible. Some PHds and other scientists have been involved in Sasquatch research over the years. Attempts at DNA testing of Sasquatches, according to Myers, has shown that Sasquatches may be part human. Mitochondrial DNA (female) indicated human origin, while Nuclear (male) DNA is of unknown origin. It is surmised that Sasquatches are some sort of human hybrids. Myers thinks that Sasquatches may live in caves or in large nests. (He does not think they have any connection to old stone houses.) They may communicate at a lower frequency, thus humans would not be able to hear them. Several reports of Sasquatch activity have been by campers who have heard strange sounds at night. One reported that this creature stuck his head inside the tent. One observer in the SSP area was so frightened, he ran to Elk Creek Road, then all the way to Shaffers Crossing. Apparently, there have been multiple sightings of Bigfoot in many areas near SSP. What do you think? Visit sasquatchoutpost.com for more information and for location and store hours.

  • Staunton State Park Faqs
    Staunton State Park FAQs When did the park open? Staunton State Park opened on May 18, 2013. How did the park get its name? Staunton State Park is named for Frances Hornbrook Staunton and her parents, who donated 1,720 acres, including her parents’ original homestead, to Colorado State Parks in 1986. How large is the park? 3,828 acres What is the elevation? Elevation ranges from 8,040 feet at Elk Creek to 10,120 feet near the summit of Black Mountain with the accompanying differences in geology, soils, and climate. The combination of this more than 2,000-foot elevation gradient and broad variety of terrain has resulted in an extensive diversity of vegetation communities and wildlife. What is the highest point in the park? 10,120 feet near the summit of Black Mountain What is there to see/do in the park? The park offers trails for hiking, biking and horseback riding; rock climbing, and picnic facilities. Bird watching, wildlife viewing, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing, are additional opportunities. Outdoor education nature programs will be a primary theme guiding the activity proposed for the park. Where are the trails located? How long/difficult are they? 20 miles of non-motorized use trails are located throughout the park and range in difficulty from easy to moderately difficult. Of these, 5 miles of single-track, hiking-only trails will provide access to some more sensitive locations in the park, such as the fragile canyon above Elk Falls. Where is “Lost and Found”? See the park Entrance Station attendant for items lost or found in the park.
