Investigation Case 011-2017 "Board Camp Crystal Mine"

Investigative File Case 011-2017 "Board Camp Crystal Mine"

Closed Case File: 011-2017
Location: SE Oklahoma (Polk County, Arkansas)

Case Type: Long Term Paranormal/Sasquatch Activity

Time Frame: 2017 (Feburary)

Investigator: Troy Hudson, Sasquatch Genome Project

This investigator was contacted by a mutual friend that had visited the property in earlier 2017, this friend had informed this investigator of the supernatural events that occurred at the property during his visit. I was familiar with the on-goings at the property due to it being so close to the SE Oklahoma state line. I had heard of the strange events on the property from several individuals that live in the area. The reports of Sasquatch sightings and activity are numerous since the late 1900s.

I was introduced to the landowner by this mutual friend, and made contact with the landowner and a site visit was scheduled.

On October 1st, 2017 another investigator and myself arrived to conduct the site visit. During the "get to know" the landowners it was immediately apparent that myself and the landowner (husband) new same people and locations during our employment. "Small world".

This day and night of the site visit proved to be something this investigator will never forget. A tour of the property was conducted by the landowners (Husband and wife). It was in my observation that they have visual evidence of Sasquatch activity on their property. Stick structures and bent small tree limbs that have been associated with Sasquatch from previous investigations and personal observations. During the night investigation myself and the landowner was walking on the furthest southern road of the property when we stopped to take in the surrounding area. I for unknown reason turned and looked up about 13-15 feet in the air and observed a medium sized rock (pic included) suspended in the air, soon as my eyes made contact with the rock it immediately fell straight down and hit the road. It was not spinning or rotating as if it had been thrown it was just suspended for a split second and fell. I have never observed this type of event. This investigator is not making any claims of any type of supernatural event. It is a observation of what had happened. Later in the evening there were sounds and movements in the woods that indicated Sasquatch type activity. This concluded this date's site visit.

On October 13th, 2017 this investigator was asked to return to assist the landowners with a group of paranormal investigators that were in town to conduct a "town hall" meeting and do some filming for a project, This investigator was onsite from October 13th thru October 15th 2017.

Through this time period several unexplained phenomenon occurred that can only be described as paranormal in nature. This investigator has many years personal experience with the unexplained, supernatural and paranormal as some described. However on the last night the film crew/team (6 total members) myself and one other member of the team stayed in an area above the rest of the team conducting a filming/investigation down below a ridge line. I was observing movements around myself and the other team member. I was pointing out to the team member that we had movement that was associated with Sasquatch and demonstrated what and how to spot the movement. It was brief and very subtle. The team member said "I am seeing eyehsine or what?" I looked into the location where he was looking and I observed several sets of eyeshine that are associated with Sasquatch activity. Out of the corner of my eye, no more than 20-30 yards away I observed movement in the tree line. We were sitting just inside the tree line on a small road and could see the night's sky that illuminated the area making it easier to see movement. I told the team member to watch that area I had just seen movement. He then immediately grabbed my arm and pointed to that same location and said "right there, right there I see one it's standing right there" I moved over to get a better look as to what he was seeing. I observed a rather large figure shaped like a human, shoulders and head I could see very plainly. The team member added " I can see his head and shoulders and arms, he paused and said I see his torso, he is huge"

The team below had radioed back that they were coming back up the ridge line. I told the team member that was with me to not take his eyes off who he was looking at. The team below was making their way up the ridge (utilizing flashlights). During their walk back up the ridge line they had pointed their flashlights up to see where they were walking and the team member with me looked over briefly to see where the rest of the team was and looked back and with disappointing voice said "well I dont see it no more" I had heard the movement in that area as if something had moved off quickly"

The night was not complete when the whole team decided to walk to another area of the property. While walking on one of the roads leading back to one of the crystal mine dig sites several members heard a small rock hit on the road behind everyone. One team member was utilizing a hand held FLIR (thermal imaging device) and quickly located the rock among other rocks with the FLIR, the rock in question had a heat signature that can only be described as if someone had been holding it in their hand for enough time to transfer the heat from their body to the rock. This proved to be a very useful tool in determining which rock out of the hundreds laying on the ground had been held by someone or something with enough body heat to transfer it over to the rock. (More to be added at a later date)


Investigator's Notes:   This investigator's findings are still a mystery in the fact that the Sasquatch Genome Project does not normally investigate paranormal cases. However this investigator has personal experience with the unexplained and supernatural events. This property is undeniable evidence of the unexplained supernatural activity that also includes Sasquatch presence. Below are pics and link to the Board Camp Crystal Mine for the reader to make up his/her mind of what is really going on at this location.

The Honobia Bigfoot Conference and Festival 2017 Just Keeps Getting Bigger and Better!

2017 another year to beat as one would say. WOW, can not say it enough WOW, well the organizers of the Honobia Bigfoot Conference and Festival should be very proud of a fabulous event. No exact totals but well over 5,000 in attendance, the conference alone was wall to wall people. Starting out on Friday morning was a shock that just about all the chairs in the conference hall were full, Saturday the conference organizer had to call for more chairs.

The vendors were packed with people and the food vendors had their hands full. Helicopter rides were on Saturday with hour long wait, unbelievable! The Choctaw Bigfoot 5K was another big hit, more than 600+ registered. Storytelling drew more than 250 people each night and proved again to be another great aspect of the conference atmosphere. People came from all over the US and abroad to attend. Additional conference and festival information will be updated as it comes available.

2017 Honobia Bigfoot Conference and Festival

This year (2017) is being planned to be another great event. This year the Honobia Bigfoot Committee has introduced something that no other Bigfoot Conference and Festival has ever done. Helicopter rides!  ( There is a fee) Yes that is correct you can take a helicopter ride and look for Bigfoot yourself. The chance of seeing one well....that is debatable. There has been some construction on the Kiamichi Mountains Christian Mission over the past year, so the long-time location where the storytelling has been held is no longer available due to a new lodge under construction. The conference staff is looking for a location on the property to hold the storytelling. Please check with the ladies at the front door of the conference hall for location, the time is always at sundown, please bring a chair and blanket, it's Oklahoma you know how our weather is around here. Hope to see you there. For more information click on the link below.

Kiamichi Mountains Adventures Expeditions 2017 Begins!

Every year people come from all over the US to get their once in a lifetime experience here within the Kiamichi Mountains of SE Oklahoma hoping to catch a glimpse of the most elusive folklore legend of all time. Surprising enough some do, and most leave with more than what they expected to see and hear. This year started out with unexpected trip of young ladies from far east Texas and Louisiana. They were on their own Sasquatch expedition to celebrate one of their own's birthday. They were staying in a cabin near Smithville, Ok just east of Honobia. They were told to go over to Honobia and go to Christ 40 Acres there is someone over there that gives tours. They traveled over to Honobia that same day and came across the employees at Honobia Creek Store, they told the ladies to go on up to Christ 40 and ask for Troy, he is up there today.

Troy Hudson has been leading field expeditions within the Kiamichi mountains for more than 10 years, he works part time at Christ 40 (Kiamichi Mountains Christian Mission) he takes care of the safety and security program for KMCM. Through the spring and early fall he leads Bigfoot expeditions that has yielded more than half of the people that have attended their own experiences that leaves them wanting more.

Well the ladies drove up to the mission and just happened that Troy was on property that day and met with the young ladies. Troy learned that they were from Texas and Louisiana and were there for the weekend having their own expedition. He invited them out for the night and told them what to wear and bring to make their night more comfortable. The ladies departed for their cabin with excitement and anticipation of what was going to happen when they hit the woods. They returned (all 6 of them) dressed for action, they were transported to an area away from the property where they were given a briefing on what to look for, what to listen for and what to expect and not to expect. Notice: not all the expedition tactics and techniques are shared openly, if and when you attend one of these expeditions you will find why they do not share these openly.

Through the evening several ladies observed extremely large man like shadows on top of the ridge walking back and forth, several others observed similar shadows near the base camp rocking back and forth between the trees. One young lady's chair was hit with a small twig that was thrown horizontal across a small opening just after another young lady observed movement in the trees just 40 yards away. Eyeshine was the hit of the night, everyone had the chance to see eyeshine at various times and locations in relation to base camp. One young lady got the rare opportunity to watch a small child like figure along with a larger figure move about just 50 yards from her for little over 10 minutes, she described that she at one moment could see a light colored area of its face on the small figure, she said that it was so fast that all she could see was bridge of a nose and both eyes. She was so amazed she couldn't stop talking about it.

Some people reading this may think its all a put on to get more people to attend, well remember this was a "chance" that Troy was going to be at the mission and no one knew these ladies were coming, this expedition was put together in hours, so no way for anyone to plan to be at the site to hoax or fool anyone, the other KMCM staff that is usually are on site were attending an event more than 25 miles away, so only ones that knew and were on site were the ladies and Troy. The night ended when everyone arrived back to their vehicles. However this is just the beginning for these ladies, they traveled to SE Oklahoma to celebrate a birthday and hoping to have their own expedition, well they came to SE Oklahoma and got more than they expected.

Note: The expedition leader (Troy) is not always at KMCM, so thinking of driving down hoping to get a expedition the same weekend is a gamble, what happened with these ladies may have been by design from the Lord above, who knows, if you wish to learn more and or get dates for future expeditions contact:   honobiaoklachito@gmail.com
