Mapping Bigfoot #6 Scott's Favorite Maps

Untold Radio Network

In this episode of Mapping Bigfoot, host Scott Tompkins takes us on a journey through the scientific and ecological factors that could explain Bigfoot's elusive nature. With his expertise as a GIS specialist and naturalist, Scott uses data, maps, and real-world examples to explore Bigfoot's potential habitat, behaviors, and survival strategies.
We begin by looking at the striking overlap between Bigfoot sightings and bear habitats, suggesting that both creatures may share similar preferences for remote, rugged forests. Scott also dives into the environmental factors—like high rainfall and dense forests—that make certain regions ideal for Bigfoot to thrive, from the Pacific Northwest to the Appalachians.
Scott further explores the vast wilderness of North America and how its scale could explain the rarity of Bigfoot evidence. He also highlights key ecoregions, like the Southern Unglaciated Allegheny Plateau and the Pacific Lowland Mixed Forest, where Bigfoot sightings align with rich ecosystems and remote terrain.
The episode wraps up with a closer look at Chestnut Ridge in Pennsylvania, one of the most active Bigfoot zones, where sightings often follow natural wildlife corridors and waterways. Could Bigfoot be using these paths to stay hidden in plain sight?
Join Scott for a data-driven exploration of Bigfoot’s possible existence, where science and mystery meet in the wild landscapes of North America.
