About this listen

 Deep in the shadows of Mount St. Helens, five gold prospectors experienced a night of terror that would forever mark their lives and give birth to one of America's most enduring wilderness mysteries.In this episode, we transport you to July 1924, when Fred Beck, the steady leader of a small mining operation, fired three shots at a strange, towering figure glimpsed across a canyon. Little did he know that as darkness fell, his cabin would become a fortress under siege.Join us as we follow Fred, Gabe Lefever, John Peterson, Marion Smith, and his son Roy through their harrowing ordeal—rocks and massive objects raining down on their roof, glimpses of seven-foot creatures moving through moonlit shadows, and the heart-stopping moment when a massive, hair-covered arm reached through their window.As dawn broke over Mount St. Helens, the men discovered fourteen-inch footprints surrounding their cabin, evidence of something science couldn't explain.

Their story would reach The Oregonian newspaper under the headline "Ape Men Sought," and a remote gorge would forever be known as "Ape Canyon. "Ninety-nine years later, we examine what really happened during that midsummer night and why Fred Beck maintained the truth of their encounter until his death, insisting they had confronted something unknown in the wilderness of the Pacific Northwest.
