OK, I am new here and not too sure if this is where I would post this so I chose here. Here's my BF story.
My wife and I moved to Port Moody from Winnipeg in the summer of 2005. She had come out earlier for an interview and to find us a place to live. Honestly from day one I did not like the place, it was one of those, nice places to look at but I wouldn't want to live there kind of places. It was a basement suite in a new home on a new street, there were three houses when we moved in but the third wasn't finished yet. I was newly unemployed and for some reason couldn't find a job so I would walk our dog every day and explore our new neighborhood. Our encounters started almost immediately but nether of us knew what it was. We never saw anything but almost every night when we would take out the dog for her last bathroom break we could smell something in the bushes across from the houses. It was really nasty and seemed to be around the same place every time. We would also hear the occasional rustling around the same area as the smell. At first I thought it was a bear, being new to the area and after the first week our garbage was taken by the neighborhood bear so I naturally thought he was the stinky one too. Every day I would take our dog out for walks and kept seeing strange things. There was the really large poops that seemed almost deliberately pooped in the locations. The first poop was at the end of our street closest to the bush, right in the middle of the street and another was further down the street but in the middle of a driveway. I guess that could be a bear pooping but it seemed strange. Another was garbage, I have never heard of a BF being a scavenger but hear me out. Almost every week the neighbor would leave their garbage out at night and every time it would be scavenged , I almost became a pro at distinguishing who took the neighbors garbage. There was the bear of course, who would bite the lid off and discard it beside the can and would take a small bag into the woods and rip it up. There was also the raccoon whom I had a personal encounter with, he would jump up onto the can, push down the locking handles and then pull the whole thing down with his weight then pick at what looked good. Then there was the crows who would pick at bags left on the street. But occasionally I would see an empty can lying on it's side and the lid quite a distance away.....handles locked too. One day the landlord was just getting home with his daughter and said he saw a big pile of garbage bags near the bear trails where he and his daughter were hiking. They were ripped open and had been fed on I guess is the term. Weird, yes? Do bears pile things? We kept smelling the smell and hearing the rustling and I even saw eyes one night on a hike up the hill, reflection from a car going by not evil glowing ones. Then one day in the middle of the afternoon at the beginning of our hike I could smell the smell and our dog got pretty nervous and picked up the pace, we were almost at the end of the street when I heard some rustling and a large rock came flying out of the bush and landed right behind my left foot! I think we sprinted the rest of the way down the hill. After that incident it got pretty quiet, no odors, no rocks, garbage was safe and I found a job. It was around the middle of December and I worked until 8 p.m. and just got home after a long day at work, I just got out of my truck when something from in the bushes started growling at me and it was close, I was not about to stick around to smell it or try to see what it was, I high tailed it into the house and locked the doors. A couple of days after that I was up getting ready to leave for work and heard what sounded like a bear and a bigger bear fighting. I went out on our deck to try to see what was going on but it was really dark, it didn't last long but I was really nervous going to my truck that morning. Shortly after that the developer started building the last two houses on the street and the one next door sold and the people moved in. I never did smell anything after the big fight or had anything thrown at me but what else could it have been? We did have ALLOT of wildlife, everything from bears, deer, raccoons, rats, coyotes, a neighbor saw a cougar and I even saw what looked like a big wolf. So I looked up our neighborhood on Google earth and noticed what looked to be a giant funnel going straight to our street from the top of the mountain. Is it possible, a BF in the city?

What city and can you give me an address? I'd like to look at in on Google Earth also. I don't think it is impossible, my family's possible first experience happened on the edge of town next to a wooded area reachable by fields and waterways, just across the river from a high-sighting area. Have there been other sightings listed online in that area?

Hey Bob, Are you in the Anmore area by chance? I've been up in that area surveying several times over the last 10ish years and no doubt its WILD considering its proximity to town.! Dont doubt anything that might occur there. Elucidate further please!

Hi, It was allot closer to town than Anmore. We were about two minutes away from city hall on the north side just up from Ioco.

Just finished reading John Green's "Sasquatch, the Apes Among US" and he has reports of a screaming sasquatch that hung around a new Washington State subdivision for quite awhile. All the cover to the north of Port Moody would give any wildlife a good escape route. Dewdney (or was it Deroche) had quite a bit of activity a few years ago at homes that backed onto the mountains to the north. It would be great to get a report like this when the activity was taking place. Great potential for night vision serveillance and stealthy trail cameras.

Well I would say Sasquatch come alot closer than most think, Here is a map, I think you are were the red circle is, As you can see lots of bush and mountains and lakes for them to roam around in.

It took a little time to find the circle but that is right around where I used to live. There usually was deer grazing on the hill side at the end of the street and the chatter of birds and squirrels in the bushes but once in a while it would be dead quiet. Usually nothing would happen, but when I did smell that odor or a bear was around I kind of put 2 and 2 together and was very cautious when it was quiet. I kept warning my wife to be careful when it was quiet but she thought I was nuts until a bear chased her and our dog down the street just before we moved. I know the smell wasn't from the bears, we had a few too many run-ins with the bears and never did smell them before they came out of the bush. We even pulled right up beside one of the bears once in the car. Nothing malodorous coming from that big boy, he just looked over and kept going on his way....no growling. I keep remembering other things like the motion lights on the side of the house turning on in the middle of the night, they were pretty high up, sometimes my wife wouldn't even set them off and she's not short. My truck mirror was pushed in one morning, it could have been a bear but it would have had to have been one big bear. And one night,( I was in Winnipeg and my wife was here), my wife took the dog out for her bed time bathroom break, Tessa was on a retractable leash and ran out ahead. She had just made it to the street turned left and started whining, barking, and howling all at once at something at the end of the street. My wife didn't stick around and yanked her back and they ran back into the house. She never reacted that way to the bears, which she had seen a few times by then and it wasn't a deer, she always wanted to play with those, so what was it? I am glad we moved away from there, not only was it scary at night but we also had to go down three flights of stairs to the back of the house to get to our door. I'm amazed neither of us fell.

I had a good encounter today. No it was not a sasquatch, it was however a hiker who about 5 years ago, saw a possible sasquatch melt into the forest about 50 feet from where we met on the trail. The only person I met - what are the odds of that. I set out at about 11 to hike from the Ruby Creek FSR to Deer lake. I had my dog with me. She was acting quite timid staying behind or beside me and quite close until we crossed Mahood Creek. From Mahood to Deer lake she was doing her usual thing of running up to 50 feet ahead. On the way back I had to wade Mahood to drag her across because the water was a little too deep and fast for her and the log from the old bridge was slippery. She became timid again, wanting to stay behind me but not so close. So I noticed the hiker before she did. We talked about our 2 options for bear protection - he had bear spray. He has seen some big bears in the area. When I mentioned that the dog was a bit antsy he mentioned his sasquatch encounter about 5 years back. This site is about a kilimoter from the hunter encounter of last September and I have heard a story of some campers from deer lake having a good encounter on this trail while riding bikes.
