WHITERIVER - For centuries, tiny spirit people have been a part of Apache culture, haunting the night with mischief, playing tricks in the shadows.
Now, the White Mountain Apache Tribe has another mystical being to watch for after dark: Bigfoot.
In recent months, the legendary creature purportedly has been chased by police officers, spotted by campers and caught peeking through windows of tribal residents' homes.
Investigators even made plaster casts of what appear to be footprints and sent hair samples from a reported Sasquatch-like creature to a state lab for testing. Reports snowballed so much that, over the weekend, controversial Bigfoot hunter Tom Biscardi visited the Fort Apache Reservation northeast of Globe for the second time this year to interview witnesses and launch a mini-expedition.
During a broadcast Saturday on the tribe's radio station, Biscardi exhorted witnesses to come forward.
"We're here for the white Bigfoot, the monkey-type creature with a tail, the one that was throwing rocks at people here," Biscardi said. "I gotta tell you, people, it's here."
By day's end, at least a half-dozen tribal members had told of seeing a strange beast, hearing blood-curdling screams in the night or surviving other experiences.
Several offered to join Biscardi's Searching for Bigfoot Inc. team on mini-expeditions. Most backed out, but 18-year-old Laramie Smith came through after explaining that he'd heard Bigfoot noises near a place called Diamond Creek. He said he had found a cave that might be the beast's lair.
Smith led the team deep into piney woods, stopping under a full moon. Searchers geared up with infrared and thermal-imaging devices. They had a Taser, a tranquilizer gun and a net-shooting canon, just in case. At 11 p.m., the search began in earnest.
