In this episode, Fred from the Subarctic Alaska Sasquatch YouTube channel returns with one of the most difficult encounters he’s ever shared. The story centers on Don, a lifelong Alaskan who chose a solitary life deep in the wilderness, far from roads, towns, and modern comforts. For years, Don lived in relative peace on his homestead, building a life rooted in self-reliance and a deep respect for the land. That peace begins to unravel when Don starts experiencing encounters with large, unknown beings in the area around his property. 

Through a series of emotional phone calls with Fred, Don recounts how the activity escalated, bringing fear and uncertainty into a place that once felt safe. The situation takes a devastating turn when his dog, Rebel, is violently injured, forcing Don to confront the reality that he may no longer be able to protect himself or the life he built. As the encounters intensify and the sense of being watched and threatened becomes impossible to ignore, Don is faced with an unthinkable choice. In the end, survival outweighs solitude, and he makes the heartbreaking decision to abandon the homestead he loved and leave Alaska altogether, returning to Illinois.

This episode is a sobering reminder of how thin the line can be between living in harmony with nature and being completely at its mercy. It’s a powerful, emotional account of loss, resilience, and the cost of choosing a life at the edge of the wild.
