On a sunny and brisk Sunday afternoon at Poet’s Walk Park in the Hudson Valley, the scenic, Hudson River-adjacent trails are filled with outdoor enthusiasts, all eagerly taking in the fresh air. Just a few hundred meters away from the gaggles of day-trippers and Lululemon-sporting second homers, however, a different scenario is unfolding — a small group makes their way through a nearly-silent forest, led by longtime local Gayle Beatty. They’re not here to get their daily steps in — Beatty is an avid Bigfoot researcher, and her crew of hardy upstaters are searching for none other than the hairy, bipedal cryptid.
