Hello Boomer, I have always considered your postings as written by a person who knew what they were talking about. There is no indication whatsoever, that any supernatural being, or strange monster, beheaded the McLeod brothers. The best account of this that I know of, is the book, Nahanni, by #### Turner, who spent more than forty years in the Nahanni country, trapping, trading and flying.
I knew #### Turner and his wife, Vera, very well. My wife and I were close neighbors with them for five years when they moved out of the north, (before they went back.)
#### often talked about this and he absolutely poo-pooed any idea of strange creatures, or any other super natural existance in that country.
In January 1946 The Vancouver Sun sent their budding young reporter, Peirre Burton, on a flight to the Nahanni to "discover," the tropical valleys reported in that country. The pilot was Russ Baker, who was on a mission to publicize his new one aircraft airline, Pacific Weatern, (named Central BC Airlines at that time.) They all got the publicity they were after, but of course there were no tropical valleys, and they had to settle for the traditional warm springs.
In the case you mention of the pilot who died, then had his rifle and minor items taken, is typical of someone in the bush who came across it and just couldn't resist. The old time natives wouldn't have done this, but by 1964 things were changing.

Some saskwatches are even found in UFO's.
