Have Coloradans spent too much time chasing Bigfoot when we have a cryptid native to our own Rocky Mountains hiding under our noses? The researchers at History Colorado have been digging into the archives, and they've uncovered stories of a creature that is almost too bizarre to believe — a “mountain whale” called the Slide-Rock Bolter. But true or not, these stories have a lot to say about Colorado's past and present. So today, History Colorado's foremost expert on the Slide-Rock Bolter, Lucy Snow, joins producer Paul Karolyi to tell the tale of the Slide-Rock Bolter, Colorado's mountain cryptid who has a taste for tourists and leaves wreckage in its path. Have you ever seen a slide-rock bolter? We want to hear your story! Text or leave us a voicemail with your name and neighborhood, and you might hear it on the show: 720-500-5418 Don't miss William T. Cox's original description of the Slide-Rock Bolter legend! Originally published in 1910, it's very short and fun. History Colorado is putting on an event in honor of the Slide-Rock Bolter on September 27. Tickets are still available for Creeporado: An Evening of the Strange and Unusual.

The squonk, or Lacrimacorpus dissolvens, is noted as “Probably the homeliest animal in the world, and knows it” [1]. Much of our information on the squonk comes from two volumes on Appalachian and upper-midwestern lumberlore, Fearsome Creatures of the Lumberwoods, With a Few Desert and Mountain Beasts by William T. Cox, and Fearsome Critters by Henry H. Tryon. Taken together, their descriptions and accompanying lithographs paint a picture of a morose dog-pig hybrid, hairless and weeping, and covered with warts and moles. According to Cox, “Because of its misfitting skin, which is covered with warts and moles, it is always unhappy; in fact it is said, by people who are best able to judge, to be the most morbid of beasts”.This melancholy extends beyond its appearance, and it is said that the poor animal weeps constantly. Tryon notes that “He is given to constant weeping over his really upsetting appearance, and can sometimes be tracked by his tear-stained trail”. Cox corroborates this, noting that hunters are often able to follow the squonk by its tear-stained trail, and Tryon notes that these squonk hunts are best performed by moonlight. The squonk is not without its defenses though, as when surprised or frightened, it can dissolve itself into a puddle of tears to escape capture.Records of the squonk mainly come from the hemlock forests of Pennsylvania. They make their home in these hemlocks, and are active only during the twilight hours, returning to their hemlocks before moonrise, where they can avoid catching a glimpse of their reflection in a moonlit pool, an event that will often bring the squonk to tears. The ancient distribution of the squonk was thought to be much wider, but as the high plains where it roamed gradually turned into swamps, it was forced to try to adapt to water. Between the squonk's limited cognitive abilities, and the fact that it only evolved webbing on its left feet, it found itself unable to swim, merely going in circles when it tried to enter the water. It finds its hemlock homes of today much more suitable. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Many of the urban legends and stories we tell about involve creatures that range from the scaly to the hairy. They do have one thing in common, however, in that they are animals. What about those that involve the plants? It is as though we see the forest but neglect the actual trees within. Many of the most bizarre encounters involve plants with the ability to move, eat, and even speak. With as little as we really know about the various species of plants growing in our own backyards, it is not that impossible that some of the most amazing cryptids may be the green kind. Join us today as we wander Within The Mist to explore tales of the plant cryptids and whether it is easy being green.

A limbless reptilian monster that propels itself through the swamps with a propellor-tipped tail? A creature so ashamed of its monstrous appearance that it dissolves into tears when captured? Learn about the snoligoster, the squonk and many other 'fearsome critters' in this field guide written and illustrated by two North American foresters who know them well. Listeners who suspect that these creatures are the stuff of tall tales, will nevertheless do well to look out for slide-rock bolters when vacationing in the Colorado mountains. - Summary by Phil Benson Genre(s): Myths, Legends & Fairy Tales William T.

Our FIRST cryptid episode! Can you dig it!? In 1910 William T Cox's FEARSOME CREATURES OF THE LUMBERWOODS was published, a fantasy field guide of the bizarre monsters and aberrations of the mountain west, plains, and beyond. Perhaps the most infamous of which is the Slide Rock Bolter, a colossal land-leviathan that swallows unwitting tourists and lumberjacks unlucky enough to cross its path. Are you from Colorado and have been eaten by the Slide Rock Bolter? If you get cell service from inside that massive beast, let us know what it's like in there. https://linktr.ee/oopsallmonsters
