National Park Bigfoot Campfire Stories
Ever thought about touring America’s national parks? Be sure to read these stories before you go, especially if you want to see the parks’ hidden wild side. Or better yet, read these stories at night by headlamp while camped in one of the park’s beautiful campgrounds, listening to wolves howling in the distance—and are you sure it’s really wolves?
Fly-fishing guide Rusty Wilson, known as the World's Greatest Bigfoot Story Teller, has spent years collecting these tales from his clients around the campfire, stories guaranteed to make sure you won‘t want to go out after dark.
This book contains a total of 18 six new stories from Crater Lake, Guadalupe Mountains, the Tetons, the Redwoods, Mesa Verde, and the Badlands, and a dozen from previous books, including Great Basin, Yellowstone, Zion, Glacier, Black Canyon, Death Valley, and Olympic National Park.
Come read about a most unusual visit while hiking Wizard Island at Crater Lake, of a strange sighting in the harsh desert mountains of west Texas, an unusual sight in an old barn in the Tetons, a garden in the Redwoods, a strange cliff dweller in southern Colorado, and high winds in South Dakota’s Badlands—or was it really the wind?
Other stories include a strange rockhounding companion, a Yellowstone wildlife biologist with a most unusual and hair-raising task, hang gliding in the canyons of Zion, high-altitude diving in Glacier’s Kintla Lake, a terrifying encounter in the depths of the Black Canyon, a most unusual job in Yellowstone, getting lost in the Olympic rainforest, sheer terror on a Denali glacier, and a fantastic vision quest deep in the heart of Yellowstone’s highest mountains.
Be sure you’re not alone in the woods while reading these stories, and whatever you do, don’t go hiking by yourself! Another great book from Rusty Wilson, Bigfoot expert and storyteller—tales for both the Bigfoot believer and those who just enjoy a good story.

More Extended Encounters in National Parks
This is another great Rusty book. Only 6 were new stories, I wish he would do a complete all new book instead of mixing old and new stories. The previously published stories were good ones, I remember as well. Rusty's books are different because his stories ate extended encounters, not just I saw one cross the road. I hope there is a follow-up National Parks book.

wonderful Stories!
This is a well thought out book. Very interesting and informative. I particularly liked the last paragraph of #4, and all of the last chapter. Good grammar.
Had never read any of your books before, but certainly will in future.
Thanks for composing these stories.
Would Highly recommend!
