Two Oregon Men Found Dead After Sasquatch Search in Washington Forest

The men, aged 37 and 59, died of exposure during a Christmas Eve expedition in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest.

The two men were reported missing by a family member early on Christmas Day after failing to return from their planned Christmas Eve trip.
A three-day search involving over 60 volunteers, drones, canine units, and a U.S. Coast Guard helicopter led to the discovery of their bodies in a heavily wooded area.
Authorities attributed the deaths to exposure, citing harsh weather conditions and the men's lack of preparedness for the environment.
The Gifford Pinchot National Forest, a 1.3-million-acre area in Washington, is known for its challenging terrain and frequent Sasquatch-related folklore.
Officials extended condolences to the victims' families and commended the volunteers who braved extreme conditions during the search operation.
