NW of Nebraska.

Hallo Glacier and Devil's Desk. Also hook glacier.

I knew that hint would send you right there.

This is also NW of Nebraska.

Is it a meteor strike, a sinkhole, a mining pit, a limestone sink, a caldera, a Bigfoot bathtub, or a collapsed pingo?

It's not a meteor strike... I already looked up all of those.

 

[Rockskipper]

Did you find any Bigfoot bathtub locations?

Did you find any Bigfoot bathtub locations?

Yes, but I'm definitely keeping those to myself!

 

[b.stark]

It is in the area of classic Bigfoot territory.

Cuberant Basin it is!

Because I continue wasting everyone's time with joke guesses, I'm gonna search around for this now.

 

[b.stark]

The name is a very good, if basic, description of the feature.

 

[Jackson]

I was hoping it was one of the places in the PNW named Hole in the Ground, and after looking at the one in Washington and the one in California, I finally came across the one in Oregon. And that's it.

You got it! I suppose a lot of Bigfoots could bathe there if you filled it with water.

 

[Jackson]

If I remembered calculus better from my undergrad, I'd attempt to do a precise volume calculation of the crater and figure out how many Bigfoots would fit. Shame I can't remember integrals very well.

As territorial as they are, I think only one would fit.

Washakie Needles. Great one! The spot I mean, not the calculus

Got it!

I do think calculus is cool. I just don't have enough use for it day-to-day for me to have remembered much of it from 5 or 6 years ago.

You guys sure know a lot about Bigfoot - size, territory, habits, volume, mass, magnetic declination, etc.

I like to bag on it, but I'm actually fascinated by calculus - which is funny, because it was my Calc 1 class in college that convinced me not to go into a STEM field - not because it was too hard, but because if I had to do three more years of tedious problem sets in other math classes, I would go absolutely crazy.

@Nick must have brought a Sasquatch friend to the most recent BCP meetup.
