Grey Canyon: Den of Bigfoot
A Monstrous, Mystical Thriller. In the fog enshrouded, mysterious Grey Canyon, loggers Jason Ibsen and Sam Kloss fall the wrong tree and unleash a primordial violence into the Oregon wilderness. Amongst the floored redwood tangle an object about five feet long and three across lay entwined. It was fresh fir branches, but somehow crisscrossed and tightly interwoven. Jason reached to touch it and both men jumped back when it moved slightly. He picked up a stick and lifted one edge. "Oh hell," Sam said, "it's a baby bear. I told you something was up there." It was small, black furred, face down and barely breathing. Jason put the stick under one side and lifted it toward him. "Oh God, Jason! Not a bear!" They looked down at a face. A dark face with open eyes and blood seeping from its nose and mouth... Join with Michael, a man seeking to spark his restless spirit by camping the woods and visiting old friends, and ride with Nicole and Ian, college sweethearts on a mission to save the trees in their beloved forest. They will encounter the mythic, giant man-beast of the deep woods, finding themselves in a primitive, terrifying battle for survival.

In “Grey Canyon: Den of Bigfoot” by Jeff England, college radicals, a tree hugger, and loggers all face a mythical beast in a beloved forest. Mankind and “squatch”-kind all come together despite their differences to save the forest they love. I have never read a book from the perspective of sasquatch and to see that sasquatch come alive with thoughts and feelings was a refreshing new look.
This is a truly unique story. Not many people write about the sasquatch unless it’s for non-fiction purposes. So, it was great to see someone not only write about them but give them a family and thoughts. He made them seem like people, and not animals running around in the wild, giving readers a genuine, authentic experience. I thought of Tarzan and Jane when the young sasquatch took the unconscious teen out of mere curiosity when he hit her with a rock.
This book will appeal to anyone who has taken a hike in the woods and appreciated her great splendor, or that person you know who swears they seen the fantastical, magical creature we call Bigfoot. It is a great read for any age, lighthearted, not too dark, and all wrapped up in a PG package. After I finished reading, I gave the book to my husband who is a sasquatch fanatic with his own sasquatch encounter. I would recommend it to “sassy” fans or skeptics alike. I’ve never been part of a radical protest movement that rallied to destroy heavy machinery like the characters in this book; I do however have plenty of friends and family proclaiming sasquatch encounters of their own.
Jeff England perfectly captured the experience in this playful story with his clear and easy-to-read style of writing. “Grey Canyon: Den of Bigfoot” is also suitable for kids from the Junior High School age and above as it isn’t too violent, and the language is age appropriate. I think this may be a fun summer read to take camping and maybe hope to see a sasquatch on your trip!
