Ape Canyon with Marc Myrsell | EP:341
Episode 341
Wednesday, 7 January, 2026
In July 1924, a group of five gold prospectors—Fred Beck, Marion Smith, his son Roy Smith, Gabe Lefever, and John Peterson—endured a terrifying ordeal while working a remote claim in the rugged narrow gorge of Ape Canyon, on the southeast flank of Mount St. Helens, Washington.The miners reported harrowing encounters with towering, hairy ape-like creatures—standing approximately 7 feet tall and covered in dark fur—that culminated in a prolonged nighttime siege on their cabin. This dramatic incident stands as one of the earliest and most infamous alleged Sasquatch attacks on record, profoundly influencing modern cryptozoology and echoing ancient Native American legends of "mountain devils" or giant hairy beings inhabiting the wilderness.Joining us is renowned researcher Marc Myrsell, whose groundbreaking work has preserved the authentic story of the Ape Canyon siege. Through meticulous analysis of historical maps, documents, and fieldwork, Myrsell not only rediscovered the long-lost cabin and mine site but has uncovered compelling new insights into this enduring mystery.In this episode, Marc delves into the chilling history, recounts the miners' night of terror, shares his latest discoveries, and reveals his own profound personal experiences with the elusive creatures the prospectors dubbed "Mountain Devils."
