Damn... I just watch missing 411 the hunted... Please watch it.

The rut/mating season is in the fall. It was an elk. Male Elk are extremely vocal. They are very aggressive during this season. The moon phase was probably full. This last around 4 weeks. They make deep scary sounds & thrash around.. Make noise if walking around at dusk or sunrise. If if going to a pit toilet. Some People will say you heard a Sasquatch...

Umm, I've had 3 Sasquatch experiences, you know what you heard was huge. Not a moose, elk, bear, cougar, deer, bobcat...just the sound you made yourself reminds me of them...the Tree People. Thanks for sharing that experience. They are everywhere in these parts.

I lived at Diamond Lake for a few years. when i was 10 my older brother and i seen a massive creature we can only describe as what we knew to be bigfoot. it was standing in the doorway of our house taller then the door frame and the shape of a huge person roughly 10:00pm. my stepdad at the time was head of security at the resort and the next day he was telling my mother of how he chased something into the swamps the shape of a man but huge and foul smelling.. may seem like just a legend for some folks but to others who have witnessed something and heard its grunts and howls you cant shake our belief. put yourself out there in that dense forest for a few nights alone without a dog and chances are you will experience something you thought was just a made up story.

I love that your friend brought her own lawn! I love Oregon.

Intriguing.... Love the music. Your music is always well selected.

Good to see you! Yes, Sasquatch for sure! Crater Lake is known for them! Stay safe!

I hear elk rutting just a couple blocks away from my house in the cow pasture behind my house. They are quite vocal and make a range of noises. You can even hear their antlers as they fight each other. Most likely what you heard.

Why is this man's voice so soothing?

Hi Jimmy, Love you’re Videos Thank you for Sharing xx

Ravens have the most amazing assortment of sounds. Gurgles, screeches, calls. However, I don't hear them at night.

Welcome to the world of Sasquatch!!! You had an experience!!

We sure do get to hear and see extraordinary things being on the road!

Crater lake looks prehistoric an beautiful

Alright, this video made me smile and even laugh a little (that's not saying I wouldn't have been freaked out too!), but it reminded me of one of my city friends getting totally freaked out about hearing bull frogs for the first time. He was sure it was some huge monsters that were possibly a threat to us. You can imagine the laughs I got from that experience, and I still tease him about it occasionally. Thanks again for another wonderful video :).

Many Sasquatch reports from the Crater lake area..

It was probably Darrell saying hello! ❤️🥸👣🤗

I got such a kick out of this. Thanks for the smiles.

Elk do make crazy bugle type sounds now grunts that’s bear and bear can sound like dogs growing and in the dark everything is enhanced but I’ve been backpacking and a chipmunk sounded like a bear rustling in leaves.

It was a big foot of course ,Crater Lake is well known for sightings 👍you actually know this 🥰

Sounds like a great place to hang out and explore. With the exception of the noises 👻 It is getting close to Halloween lol Maybe big foot or local teenagers. Glad you all had a chuckle about it all. Love getting some park history. Safe and happy travels

As the daughter of a wildlife biologist I can affirm that what you heard was an elk...and they can be ANYWHERE they want to be! Much like bear! Be cautious!

I just found you and I really enjoy listening to your voice and calm head thinking. Enjoy your life!

You made me chuckle Jimmy :) I like your descriptions. Also loved the one with Crater Lake.

Just went here a few days ago. It's not far from where I live in Oregon, about an hours drive. Yes, I took pictures and went to the gift shop. That's how I pace myself while writing the book. I dont want to have a moment like in The Shining. Magick requires rest. The best place to get back to normal is a nature walk in a park or climbing. Don't overdo the time in ritual. That's lusting for results and will mess up what you intended to do.

Jimmy what you heard & hearing is a Bigfoot or Sasquatch!. There is in that part of the country a high population of them and they are nocturnal at night and can also be spotted during the day. Stay safe & travels. Thanks Jimmy great videos

So pretty. Scary sounds upset the harmony of living outdoors. Mad Love.

Jimmy, that would have been a good Halloween post. Creepy. Even it it's an elk, it's still creepy. Loved your sound track, btw.

I love hearing elk bugle off in the distance in Yellowstone .

Oh! I want that pin!!! I love the National Parks.

Over 100 years thousands of stories, no bones no body’s no hair no crap

Good to see that Becky is getting out and about! Love her channel too!

Ewww, you made goosebumpies come up all over my arms! Love it!

Heard a pterodactyl like sound myself in the middle of the forest , at a cabin I had rented, in the middle of the night. I was having a puff outside alone, and was coughing, all a sudden, a screech like no other, that was probably no further than 25 ft away in the dark.... It scared the bejesus outta me. I got my ass back inside and was shaken. I have done my fair share of middle of nowhere camping and lived on this island my whole life . I have never heard this sound before , and so loud. Had chills down my spine. This was in Tofino , BC on Vancouver Island , Canada's West coast ! I've never heard anybody else describe the pterodactyl sound till now.....

As other commenters have said, it was more than likely an Elk. They make some weird sounds. I have heard similar strange louds sounds in the forest when it was not rut season. I do not believe that there are any Burros around, however, in Big Bear California forest there is a bunch of them and they make some very strange bellowing sounds unlike anything you would think might come from an animal on Earth.

At night, what you are likely to hear is owl, bear, wolf, coyote, fox, bobcat, lynx and couger. O and maybe Sasquatch.

That's so crazy and awesome but scary love yah jimmy

thanks for sharing! very nice

Elk rut in fall, and they are loud.

Beautiful locations! Interesting about those night time sounds, and the voices in the other video. Perhaps elk, perhaps not. Safe travels!

Elk rut is in the fall... the noise they make is called a bugal sometimes with a whistle it's so high pitched ... I hear them in the night in Wyoming

I had to do security overnight for a new condo development near Banff Alberta, Canada. There were elk around and they would scratch trees with their antlers and make groaning and grunting noises, it was rutting season. The scariest part was at about 2:30-3:00 am, I heard what could only be described as a woman screaming in the distance! It almost sounds like a rusty wrought iron gate slowly closing, but scarier! I was freaked the F out! I later learned that elk make that high pitched scream during rutting season, PHEW

Love your traveling music 🎶

Most people are familiar with the common bugle an elk make during fall rut, but they make other noises as well that don't really sound like the typical bugle most people know. Oh and stay the hell clear of them during this time, super angry is how elk can be.

That had to be very eerie to hear . Has to be an elk . I'm glad to see Becky and you traveling together . 😉🙏✌💞👍👏😊

This is the time of year for the Elk bugling. Yes it very weird sounding😊

Elk can make a very loud, spine-grating bellow that sounds like metal pipes and other weirdness. I'll bet your midnight crooner was an elk. I heard one during the night and it really freaked me out.

Yay...I am glad your friend was able to meet up with you. Jimmy KZfaq has a recording of an Elk. If i heard that at night I would have been FREAKED out.

Somehow the peace and tranquility of this episode was lost the second the Chupacabra gave you several mating calls. Never let them in your van...they snore. Pretty exciting video Jimmy. Thanks!

Made it to the 10 minute mark...nice guy...very soothing voice...but alas, no payoff.

Thank you for letting me come along virtually. I love listening to Becky laugh, she has a great laugh, I admire her so much too, I know she wishes Hank was there, he is so adorable. Thank you for sharing this adventure, it makes me want to go there, maybe I can by Autumn 2019 if my place sells. Crater Lake NP looks amazing! I hope you had fun at Descend on Bend. Safe travels wherever you are now. I almost forgot, thanks for introducing me to Hot Hot Coffee... love it, my kind of music!

Great video!! Hahaha!! I was so going to say big foot too!

I heard you say Critter Lake a bunch of times and was looking up Critter Lake with no luck. I should've read the description a lot closer. Yeah I don't think it was a pelican...HAHA!! Cool video and be safe it there.

Owls, Coyotes, Deers/Elks, Foxes, these 4vanimals make real weird sounds, dinosaur alike is certainly a Deer/Elk at long shouts, the Elk calls are meant to be heard miles away and some tight valleys make it ecoing weird

I am just discovering your videos Im new to travel camping. From what I've seen so far I would love to be your passenger. Keep up the wonderful years the way you describe them.

LOL. Elk in rut. Yeah they are pretty fierce sounding when they are in rut. My buck goats made those sounds, but they are smaller in size. An elk is about the size of a horse, so they sound more like a dragon when in rut.

Beautiful scenery! Glad I found your channel 😊

I had such a nervous laugh the way you described the sounds you heard... That must have seriously scared the crap out of you. I would have been petrified!!!!! Oh my God! Well, I hope you can hear more tonight (or maybe I should hope you don't).... That was a, really pretty waterfall. I love waterfalls dearly. Keep enjoying your time there!!!!! Anxiously awaiting your next video....

Crawler or a wendigo. Stay safe out there!

My theory. You heard bull calling cow.. cow arriving... sounds of lovemaking. ;)

Love that visitor center! Now I want to visit and such a pretty time of year to go. As for the sound, there is one sound you don’t want to hear at night in the forest and that is of a mountain lion screaming....guaranteed to scare you to death....google the sound...we have them all around us here where I live and it’s the scariest sound I’ve ever heard. We had one scream outside our bedroom window one time and I never could go back to sleep that night it was so terrifying. Enjoy your time at Crater Lake! Such a gorgeous place!

LOL the woods are so scary ....... most eerie sound in the pacific Northwest is , a male bull elk and Owls and maybe a random wolf call...I see the video is dated October , right in the middle of mating season for Elk

Elk have a very distinctive sound that tends to be high pitched. That's not what you describe. Maybe I'll rethink visiting Crater Lake. lol!

Elk can make some very strange sounds, and it's mating season. :)

Big foot? My guess is an elk. i heard one years ago and it scared the heck out of me.

Thanks for the video..😉

Elk have a very high pitched, almost a whistle like sound. Big Foot make the sounds you’re describing 😳

An elk bugling in the middle of the night can be startling, to say the least as my brother and I found out many years ago in Kentucky. Around midnight, we had heard some grunting (probably a female elk) coming up a ravine, and 2 hours later came the bugling of the male from less than 200 feet away.

Yep, it's the elusive Pacific Northwest Sasquatch...I go with Elk for sure..

“That is not a bird” 🤣😯🤫 your face....classic

Hey Jimmy that must have been Sasquatch because I hear he likes jazz!!! COOL Cove Don!!!

Scary stuff! I think I would have immediately got in my van and locked the doors! Well, as soon as Becky got back from the bathroom!

When I was in the Rockies on a Jeep pass I saw barefoot huge toeprints going up a hill. Like climbing up on their toes. Then I heard a snort. I got out of there quickly. Never to know....but I know what I saw that day

I would guess it was a bull elk. Elk have huge 55-gallon sized drum-like lungs and they emit deep guttural groaning sounds as well as a high-pitched whistling during their annual September rutting season. They use those sounds to gather a harem and for challenging other bull elk who already have a harem. During the rut, they are in a very high state of sexual arousal and vocalize both day and night. I don't think it was a sasquatch because the males whistle and croon "By the Light of the Silvery Moon" to attract a mate... ;-)

Love the falls, take care with Elk they are large, don't run if you see one. just casually walk away. don't present a threat. they have a guttural roar, throw the head back and let it go. Probably sound nearer than they are.

You need to watch KZfaq channel"howtohunt"....yep...sasquach

Just seen a vid about a hiker who disappeared there in 1975...

From the noise made to mimic it its almost certainly a deer or elk but without hearing it properly its hard to say

I bet it was an elk. The bulls give a loud very high pitched "scream". Rutting season is September and October.

_Lacus Craterus_ was a vicious raptor!

Look up videos of Elk bugling, it was probably an Elk. They make a really loud weird higher then lower then higher sound and it’s loud! It almost echos.

Elk, Moose, Mule Deer could all make the sound. Plus you are assuming the sounds were all made by the same animal.

It is rutting season for elk. Babies are born in spring, so it was probably an elk.

Majority of people need to stay in the suburbs or cities. Period!

Becky with the good lawn.... that is not a bird!!!

Elk make some pretty weird sounds and loud!

Was lovin' the music from the beginning - then, when at the Crater Lake Visitors Ctr, when you recorded a bit inside the shop, you showed a painted image of the mountain blowin' it's top - with the steam, smoke & ash shooting up...& as I puzzled over the lightning bolts - the music was perfectly timed - with that weird synthesized sound - as if the sound effect for a cartoon spaceship...lol. And - love the 3D model of Crater Lake & the poster on the wall, at the end. It looks like a woodcut style, rarely seen anymore - so has a nostalgic feel - especially with that early motorcycle! All together - a very satisfying vid, Jimmy! Has a bit of everything!

Fall is rut for elk. They are very active and loud. They bugle, grunt...that loud noise is defiantly elk. I've been on elk hunt and skinned one. They have a very long vocal cord in their neck The bulls go crazy between Sept and late Oct.

Becky was so happy. I miss her videos. I know you miss her. Hope you are doing good, this came up on my side bar on KZfaq. I watched it several times before. Beware of Bigfoot.

What you heard could have been a bird called a herring. They visit our pond all the time. Their big, have long necks and they fly and sound prehistoric just like a pterodactyl would.

did you record the sounds? I guess I missed it in your video.

I saw a plaque wall hanging that seems like it describes you perfectly: Wander Often Wonder Always

When I was in Florida I heard something crazy. I thought it sounded like a tarydactil. I turned out to be a Cuban tree frog. Lol

As much I want it too be a Sasquatch (this is a great theme and I am a believer) from your description it sounds elk ish, you can find some on you tube. I’m pretty sure that my big foot digs deep soul funk. My imagination knows no bounds!

Moose bulls are extremely vocal too during rutting season, Jim … as in you don't wanna get in their way in any way … They always have the right of way on the road, their eyes do not reflect light in darkness and if angry they will kick your camper hard or worse… Stay safe, hmmm ? Love, cat.

Someone went missing in this park. A very bizarre disappearance.

In lakes, i always have visions of crouds of people, and burning adults and children on hay.....

Yep type in search on KZfaq elk calling invryt. They are loud and spooky!

Dude your a kind soul.be safe

Ok so at what point are the sounds recorded so we can here them or are you afraid that the mystery would be gone as soon as we hear it?
