OK, so this tells us that the 

8
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:32,280
report was made on September 
24th, 2000 that the actual 

9
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:35,880
sighting happened on August 
20th, 2000. 

10
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:38,240
It was in Alamosa County, 
Colorado. 

11
00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:44,040
Location Details From I-25 at 
Wallensburg it says take US160 

12
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:48,320
westbound, turn right on to 
Colorado Highway 150, drive 

13
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:52,400
approximately 2 miles, then turn
on to what is known as Lake Como

14
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:54,960
Rd. 
This is considered the toughest 

15
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:58,320
4 wheel drive Rd. in Colorado 
and the third toughest in the 

16
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:01,840
US. 
The road continues for 6.8 miles

17
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:04,800
and ends at a lake. 
This journey will take about 

18
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:08,000
four hours. 
Nearest town Blanket, Colorado. 

19
00:01:08,320 --> 00:01:11,840
Nearest Rd. 
Colorado Highway 150. 

20
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:14,960
The witness reported the 
incident occurred on Sunday, 

21
00:01:14,960 --> 00:01:18,400
August 20th, 2000 while he was 
with his mother, father and 

22
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,760
uncle. 4 Wheeling on the Como 
Rd. in the Sangre de Cristo 

23
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:24,240
Mountains in Saint Louis Valley,
Colorado. 

24
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:28,400
After reaching the end of the 
Jeep road near Lake Como, the 

25
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:30,360
group stopped to fish and have 
lunch. 

26
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:35,240
Around 1:30 PM, the witness and 
his uncle took the lead on their

27
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,560
four Wheelers. 
As a group began descending. 

28
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,840
About 1/2 mile down the road, 
they noticed something 

29
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:45,360
resembling a tall, burned tree 
stump about 78 feet high. 

30
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,640
Initially dismissing it, they 
became startled when the stump 

31
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,320
moved, stood upright and walked 
like a man. 

32
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,280
At first they thought it was a 
hiker, but the figure was 

33
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,400
uniformly colored from head to 
toe. 

34
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:01,280
It walked approximately 15 yards
before disappearing into the 

35
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,560
trees. 
The witness and his uncle 

36
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:07,120
stopped to confirm what they had
seen, then drove another 300 to 

37
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:10,120
400 yards before deciding to 
search for it. 

38
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:14,080
They ventured into the trees 
about 200 yards and came to a 

39
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,800
small Meadow. 
While scanning the area, the 

40
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,160
creature ran across the far end 
of the Meadow. 

41
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:23,400
I yelled there it goes and we 
took off after it on foot. 

42
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,800
The witness reported. 
This time he got a better look. 

43
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:31,000
The creature was light to medium
brown, covered in shaggy long 

44
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,520
hair and stood about 7 feet 
tall. 

45
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:37,760
When they reached the end of the
Meadow, they split up to search.

46
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,360
The uncle followed the 
creature's path while the 

47
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,200
witness searched another 
direction. 

48
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,760
In case of double back, however,
they did not see it again. 

49
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,160
They found a few footprints but 
lacked the plaster needed to 

50
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,920
make moles. 
Eventually, they returned down 

51
00:02:51,920 --> 00:02:54,280
the mountain. 
I know what I saw that day. 

52
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:56,680
No one can tell us otherwise, 
the witness concluded. 

53
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:01,040
Also noticed earlier that day 
around 11:30 AM and again on the

54
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:06,000
way back, they noticed the smell
resembling celery in the same 

55
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,840
location. 
Other witnesses Only the witness

56
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,240
and his uncle saw the creature. 
The witnesses parents were 

57
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,720
informed of the sighting while 
the two were searching for it. 

58
00:03:14,640 --> 00:03:17,880
Other stories blank. 
A peak, part of the Sangre de 

59
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,720
Christian arrange, is considered
sacred by the Navajo and is 

60
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:23,720
rumored to be guarded by 
Sasquatch. 

61
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:27,120
The sighting occurred around 
1:40 PM under cloudy skies with 

62
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,880
a light drizzle starting. 
The encounter occurred near the 

63
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:35,200
tree line at an elevation of 
approximately 11 thousand 11,500

64
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,840
feet. 
The forest opens into a Meadow 

65
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:42,720
with a prominent Flat Rock about
100 feet long jetting from the 

66
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:44,760
bank. 
Very cool. 

67
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,800
The witness said the animal 
crossed the Meadow only 15 to 20

68
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:51,480
yards in front of him. 
It moved with a long arm, swings

69
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:55,240
and what he described as either 
a fast walk or a slow run and 

70
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:59,800
did not bend its knees much. 
The creature's long fur appeared

71
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:04,240
matted. 
That is pretty neat up close. 

72
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:08,120
Siding there by two individuals 
and an uncle and a nephew. 

73
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,520
Very cool stuff. 
Look at this next one here. 

74
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:18,279
This one says June 1st, 2004.

location details. 
The encounter took place above 

76
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:25,160
Beaver Meadow Spring in the San 
Juan National Forest east of 

77
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:29,520

The camping area is accessed by 

78
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:33,720
taking Forest Rd.

Colorado 160 observed. 2 friends
and I went camping in San Juan 

82
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:53,760
National Forest just east of 
Lake Bellacetto on 61O4DC and I 

83
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:58,000
were from out of state, but JG 
was a regular camper there. 

84
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:01,080
We went 12 miles up the Forest 
Service road and picked a 

85
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,960
campsite. 
We saw no one else that day and 

86
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:07,440
it was a dead end road. 
JG said it was the first time 

87
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,520
he'd been there alone. 
We spent the day hiking around 

88
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,360
and cooking meat over the 
campfire. 

89
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:17,000
We did not see or hear anything 
unusual that day other than a 

90
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:21,920
partial horse skeleton. 
At about midnight we were 

91
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:27,480
winding down when we heard 32 
Tone House to the Hill, 

92
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:31,560
approximately 1/4 to our N. 
We knew it was not a coyote, but

93
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,800
almost sounded like a person 
trying to imitate a coyote 

94
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:36,840
because it had a deeper bass 
tone. 

95
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,920
About 5 minutes later we heard 
the same thing again. 

96
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:45,680
Then I heard something like a 
gunshot in that same area, but 

97
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:49,920
there was no Sonic crack. 
It was like something hit a tree

98
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,720
really hard. 
Both sounds came from the same 

99
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:56,680
place as the first set of house.
We were all standing around the 

100
00:05:56,680 --> 00:06:00,640
fire wondering what it was. 
JG had a shotgun in hand and we 

101
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:02,840
were all starting to get a 
little edgy. 

102
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:08,160
We all are police or former 
police, former military so it 

103
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,080
takes a lot to get any of us 
edgy. 

104
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,600
We all have camping experience 
and none of us had ever 

105
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:15,840
experienced anything like this 
before. 

106
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:21,160
About 5 minutes later directly 
to our W was a very loud 2 tone 

107
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,760
howl approximately 100 yards 
away. 

108
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,160
It howled again and it was 
closer so it was closing in on 

109
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,640
us. 
DC and I drew our pistols and 

110
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:33,960
flashlights and all of us 
focused on the logging Rd. that 

111
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,360
it they would have crossed to 
get to us. 

112
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,840
There was a bright full moon so 
the open areas were well 

113
00:06:40,840 --> 00:06:44,160
eliminated. 
It howled one more 2 tone howl 

114
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:48,160
before stopping at what we 
estimated to be 50 yards away in

115
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,240
the wood line. 
It seemed like it covered at 

116
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:53,320
least 50 yards going through the
woods while howling three times.

117
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:55,840
Whatever it was, was big and 
loud. 

118
00:06:56,200 --> 00:07:00,720
There was a lot more bass to the
howls than a dog or coyote has. 

119
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:05,240
Each time it howled. 
It was 2 tone in a series of 

120
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,600
three and it seemed unemotional 
or intelligent. 

121
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,720
About a minute later another 
series of three 2 tone house 

122
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,840
came from the hill to the South,
approximately 1/4 mile away. 

123
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:18,840
It seemed to be answering the 
one thing in the tree line in 

124
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,520
front of us. 
Then the one in the tree line 

125
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:23,560
let out three more of the same 
house. 

126
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,040
Let me stress again. 
This thing was loud. 

127
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,400
We were all pretty shaken. 
We felt that we had aroused at 

128
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:32,960
least three big things that were
communicating among themselves 

129
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:36,480
and closing in on us. 
We were all facing out from a 

130
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:39,240
dying fire with weapons and 
flashlights drawn. 

131
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:43,280
We didn't know if we were being 
studied or they were getting in 

132
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:46,880
position for attack. 
That would be pretty wild. 

133
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:50,000
You're out there in this very 
remote area and all of a sudden 

134
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,840
you got 3 of what you assume are
these Bigfoot standing around 

135
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,600
hidden in the timber howling 
back and forth. 

136
00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:00,880
After some debate, we decided to
pack the trucks while one of us 

137
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,760
took turns watching with the 
flashlight and gun. 

138
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,560
A few minutes later we were 
packed and headed down the 

139
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:10,080
mountain to the main road. 
We did not see or hear anything 

140
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,960
while packing or leaving. 
When we got to the road, we 

141
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:17,600
stopped to unload our guns and 
stole them legally in the 

142
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,120
trucks. 
There was one house close to the

143
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,520
road and after a while the dogs 
started to bark. 

144
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,920
I joked to JG that they were 
coming after us. 

145
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,680
Just then we heard another set 
of howls about a mile back the 

146
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,360
road. 
We just come down, whatever it 

147
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:37,440
was had followed us and we left 
immediately. 

148
00:08:37,919 --> 00:08:41,880
We were not sure what it was 
that night, but after talking 

149
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:45,200
about the incident quite a bit, 
we think we had a Bigfoot 

150
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,200
encounter. 
It was a remote wooded mountain 

151
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:51,680
location with a large lake over 
the hill. 

152
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,480
There were at least three 
intelligent beings communicating

153
00:08:55,840 --> 00:09:00,000
that sounded loud and large. 
We had been leaving our scent 

154
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,400
all around and had been cooking 
meat all day. 

155
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,800
No person would be crazy enough 
to risk getting shot playing a 

156
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,280
prank on us. 
The howls were very eerie. 

157
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,840
Like I said, they were all like 
the first two tones of a wolf 

158
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,600
howl, but much deeper. 
There was no trailing off like a

159
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,720
dog, coyote, wolf howl, just two
tones. 

160
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,840
Each 2 tone howl was in a series
of three howls that took 

161
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,560
approximately 5 to 6 seconds per
series. 

162
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:30,520
The only thing missing from the 
encounter was the lack of famous

163
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:32,640
Bigfoot stench. 
There was no win. 

164
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:36,280
So maybe the thing in the tree 
line was far enough away for it 

165
00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:39,520
not to reach us. 
We are not out to hoax anyone. 

166
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,920
We hope none of our colleagues 
find out so our day-to-day 

167
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:44,720
judgment is not questioned or 
ridiculed. 

168
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,560
This was the first time any of 
us had seen any of the other 

169
00:09:48,560 --> 00:09:51,040
ones that scared. 
We just felt that we had to 

170
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:52,840
share our experience for what it
was worth. 

171
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:56,720
Also noted, the dead horse that 
was found was weird. 

172
00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:01,080
It had a rusty shoe on one hoof.
We wondered why it was so far 

173
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,560
from a ranch and had not been 
buried. 

174
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:08,080
JG went back about a month later
and saw there were worn 

175
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:11,880
depressions in the ground in the
tree line facing our camp. 

176
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,520
He said you could not see 
someone standing there from the 

177
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:18,880
campfire, but when standing in 
the depressions you could see 

178
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:22,920
the fire ring through the trees.
He said that there were no clear

179
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,840
prints, but it looked like 
something had stood there and 

180
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:29,920
shuffled in place a while. 
Other witnesses There were three

181
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:31,760
of us. 
We are all long time friends. 

182
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:36,040
We were all just sitting around 
talking and cooking out over the

183
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:37,760
campfire. 
Other stories. 

184
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,680
I'm not from there, but JG has 
not heard anything like that in 

185
00:10:41,680 --> 00:10:44,640
that specific area. 
Time and conditions. 

186
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:48,800
Approximately midnight dark but 
with the full moon clear. 

187
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:53,440
No wind, about 40° at the 
coldest environment. 

188
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:57,360
It was mostly Aspen and pine. 
There were a lot of dead falls 

189
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,080
around. 
We were in a saddle of two hills

190
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,400
on the east slope. 
The lake was on the West side of

191
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:04,480
the hills. 
Wow. 

192
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:09,000
Then the follow up investigation
says two of the three witnesses 

193
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,400
were contacted over the course 
of several months. 

194
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:15,520
Both men said they were more 
than 10 miles up a dirt road and

195
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,920
had not seen any other people 
during their stay. 

196
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:22,760
The first witness, KT, 36, lives
in the Midwest and is currently 

197
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:26,280
employed as a police officer. 
It almost felt like we were 

198
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:28,640
invading someone else's 
territory. 

199
00:11:28,680 --> 00:11:31,800
We were roasting meat by the 
fire all day, hiking around, 

200
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,640
leaving our scent. 
Anything within 5 miles had to 

201
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,760
know we were there. 
After the first vocalization, KT

202
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:42,200
said he heard a sharp snap come 
from the woods up the hill where

203
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:45,480
the calls were coming from. 
I'm a range officer with with 

204
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:49,040
the Police Department. 
I'm real familiar with gunshots.

205
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,600
This didn't have the Sonic crack
of that a gunshot has. 

206
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:56,400
As the calls continued and one 
animal moved much closer to 

207
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:58,560
camp, discomfort turned to 
alarm. 

208
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:02,360
We felt being ex military, like 
somebody was flanking us, KT 

209
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:04,680
said. 
I felt like we were going to get

210
00:12:04,680 --> 00:12:06,840
pinned in. 
We didn't know what to do. 

211
00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:08,480
We were facing something 
unknown. 

212
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:11,680
They, whatever it was, were 
communicating and getting 

213
00:12:11,680 --> 00:12:14,240
closer. 
I didn't like the odds at that 

214
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:15,880
point. 
The men armed themselves. 

215
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,800
I drew my pistol and a my 
flashlight and I never draw on 

216
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:22,800
duty or anything. 
It is an absolute last resort. 

217
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,800
But I felt certain something was
going to breakthrough the trees 

218
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:27,560
and come running across the 
road. 

219
00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:31,600
There was no other sound out 
there and this and this was 

220
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,160
loud. 
I can't overemphasize how loud 

221
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:36,560
it was. 
Like a big person with big lungs

222
00:12:36,560 --> 00:12:39,800
out there, he added. 
You know how you can feel bass 

223
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,680
when music is playing? 
You can feel this thing. 

224
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:46,480
There was so much depth to it. 
We were just standing there with

225
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,400
our hearts and our throats and 
stand and starting to shake. 

226
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:51,720
And I mean, we never get like 
this. 

227
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,040
Nothing faces this. 
I've been up against armed 

228
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,880
people before and I've never 
been as scared as this. 

229
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,520
He said he is certain whatever 
happened wasn't a hoax. 

230
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:04,200
As a police officer, I say give 
me the proof. 

231
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,480
I'm pretty much convinced that's
what it was, though through 

232
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,920
elimination, I didn't. 
I don't see anything else that 

233
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:14,600
it could have been. 
The second witness, JG, 41, now 

234
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:17,440
lives in New Mexico. 
He said at first, he gave the 

235
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,800
strange calls little thought, 
but that changed after he 

236
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:23,760
realized that the animals were 
appearing to communicate with 

237
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,360
each other. 
There were three calls in a row,

238
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:30,040
perfectly spaced. 
I can usually imitate noises and

239
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:33,240
things, but I can't make the 
noise that this thing made it 

240
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:37,560
sounded like. 
Anyway, at that point we all 

241
00:13:37,560 --> 00:13:39,720
pretty much had our guns out. 
Were we scared? 

242
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:41,400
Oh yeah. 
At first we thought it might be 

243
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:44,280
some kind of wild dogs or 
something, but it was so 

244
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:46,640
perfect. 
Three calls answered, 3 calls 

245
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:50,440
every time without fail. 
It was clear and loud, but it 

246
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,680
wasn't screaming. 
I don't know anything in the 

247
00:13:52,680 --> 00:13:55,920
wild that makes that noise. 
I've haunted all my life and 

248
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:59,160
trapped and whatever. 
I couldn't see it being people. 

249
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,440
If it were a person, they would 
had to make more of a yelling 

250
00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:04,160
noise to get to that level of 
sound. 

251
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,000
Shortly thereafter, JG heard 
something come down the hill 

252
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,400
toward him. 
It was crashing like a deer or 

253
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:11,840
elk or something. 
When you get it to bust through 

254
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,080
the brush, I heard it come over 
the hill. 

255
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:17,280
It came down just far enough 
into the trees to where it 

256
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:22,120
couldn't be seen by light. 
That one started calling and it 

257
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,880
was answered by the first one a 
ways off. 

258
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:27,960
It could have been more than 50 
or 60 yards in front of our 

259
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,960
fire. 
I don't know any animal at all 

260
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,880
that will just walk up to a fire
making noises. 

261
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:37,600
This went on for almost an hour 
at 10 or 15 minute intervals. 

262
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:39,360
They would just call back and 
forth. 

263
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:42,400
We couldn't see anything even 
though we had lights going 

264
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:44,840
everywhere and it was there the 
whole time. 

265
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,640
It just never moved. 
After the three had packed up 

266
00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:50,560
camp and driven half an hour to 
get off the mountain, they could

267
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,040
still hear the calls. 
That's the thing that killed me.

268
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:55,680
The noise just carried. 
You could hear it forever. 

269
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:58,360
It just did not sound like it 
was a bird. 

270
00:14:58,600 --> 00:14:59,760
To me. 
It was. 

271
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:03,200
It sounded more canine, but it 
wasn't a howl like a dog. 

272
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:06,480
The three later surmised that 
they may have been under 

273
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:08,480
surveillance by juvenile 
Sasquatches. 

274
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:10,360
Kind of banded that around 
afterwards. 

275
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:14,040
We kind of thought that they 
might have been juveniles off on

276
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,560
their own. 
That's pure speculation, but 

277
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:20,280
from one point on the hill you 
could see straight up into the 

278
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,360
Womenucci Wilderness. 
If you needed the winter 

279
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:26,520
quarters and the cold season, 
this would be a perfect place. 

280
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:30,280
Lots of game water, and in the 
summer there's a path straight 

281
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:33,160
up to the wilderness. 
Looking at it, you couldn't ask 

282
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:36,200
for anything better. 
Well, it's almost like these 

283
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,880
guys were out camping and just 
kind of came up on these 

284
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,880
creatures and maybe got into 
their territory a little bit, 

285
00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:44,360
which they didn't seem to 
appreciate that much. 

286
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:50,880
Here's 1 here it says 2001 
January 25th Colorado Archuleta 

287
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:55,680
County nearest town Pagusa 
Springs, Colorado Dulce or 

288
00:15:55,680 --> 00:16:00,680
Dulce, New Mexico Nearest Rd. 
Saw on Cromo road and about two 

289
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:04,160
miles from Hwy. 84. 
Says observed. 

290
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:06,840
It was Friday January 25th, 
2001. 

291
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:10,440
At first I was not even going to
go down to the area where I 

292
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,360
where I and A friend saw a 
Bigfoot. 

293
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:15,680
I was going to finish watching 
the Pagusa basketball team play 

294
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:18,840
and go home, but a boxing match 
was on the same night and my 

295
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:21,560
best friend's not the friend 
that I saw it with me. 

296
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:25,520
brother-in-law was going to buy 
it on pay-per-view and his 

297
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:28,320
brother-in-law lives in an area 
of Chromo and Edith, Colorado. 

298
00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:31,240
There are always some crazy 
sightings of UFOs and Bigfoot 

299
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,160
sightings. 
I really didn't believe in these

300
00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:35,320
types of things until I saw one 
for myself. 

301
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:39,000
We watched the boxing match and 
after it was over we started to 

302
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:43,000
head back to Pagosa Springs on 
Chromo Road and we were almost a

303
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:47,800
Hwy. 84 when about 20 yards in 
front of us this thing or 

304
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:52,000
Bigfoot crossed and went quickly
almost as if we were seeing 

305
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,200
things. 
I didn't know what to think so I

306
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:57,800
asked Sammy if he saw it and he 
said what was that. 

307
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:01,200
We got up to where it crossed 
and I opened my door to look 

308
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:04,839
down on the road and saw a 
footprint and Sammy opened his 

309
00:17:04,839 --> 00:17:09,040
door and saw track two. 
We both freaked out and I drove 

310
00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:10,960
as fast as I could to Pagosa 
Springs. 

311
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:14,079
We didn't tell that many people,
only the ones that would believe

312
00:17:14,079 --> 00:17:15,359
us. 
Wow. 

313
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:19,319
Also notice the footprints on 
the snow packed Rd. after it 

314
00:17:19,319 --> 00:17:21,800
crossed the County Road. 
Other witnesses. 

315
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:23,839
There were two of us, myself and
my friend. 

316
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,760
Other stories, yes the Jacrello 
Apache Tribe has stories about 

317
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:31,600
sightings, time and conditions. 
Night time around 11:30 or so. 

318
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:34,880
Environment. 
It was Ponderosa and oak brush. 

319
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:38,760
About 3 to 4 inches of snow on 
the ground in a Chroma valley. 

320
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:42,880
And then the follow up, says 
investigators, Doctor Steven 

321
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:44,880
Coy. 
I interviewed this young man 1 

322
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:48,160
morning at Denny's restaurant 
and have since talked to him on 

323
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,800
the phone, at least on at least 
one occasion. 

324
00:17:51,120 --> 00:17:54,520
He is an avid outdoorsman and 
hunter, having been raised, as I

325
00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:56,600
recall, in the Pagosa Spring 
area. 

326
00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:00,160
Though he no longer lives there,
I have no doubts whatever as to 

327
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,560
his credibility and subsequently
met and interviewed at his 

328
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:07,080
suggestion, a former high school
teacher who knows the witness 

329
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:09,760
well. 
The teacher also talked to one 

330
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,520
or more additional individuals 
who have had some kind of 

331
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:15,480
sighting or encounter in this 
Pagoosa Springs area. 

332
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,960
When asked about the size of the
creature, the witness stated 

333
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:22,680
that he believed it had to be at
least 8 foot tall, perhaps 9, as

334
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:27,000
it smoothly crossed the County 
Road in approximately 1 1/2 

335
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:33,080
strides. 1 1/2 strides me, you 
know this road is going to be 

336
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:36,280
what, 20 foot wide or something?
I think it's 11 foot per lane, 

337
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:38,960
maybe 22 feet crossed it in 1 
1/2. 

338
00:18:39,360 --> 00:18:42,320
It's just almost like they're 
moving at A at a supernatural 

339
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:44,440
gate or something. 
Let's take a look at a couple 

340
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,680
more here. 
This case was submitted on 

341
00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:50,920
January 14th, 2001. 
It concerns a youngster who was 

342
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:53,440
frightened by a monster peeping 
in the window. 

343
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:59,720
Now that happened on October 
1st, 1971 in Boulder County, 

344
00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:02,920
Colorado. 
Exact details Exact location 

345
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:06,240
withheld at witnesses request. 
The incident occurred near 

346
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:10,040
Sugarloaf Mountain, nearest town
Boulder nearest Rd. 

347
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:12,160
Rd. 
Name withheld at witness 

348
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,680
request. 
This incident occurred after my 

349
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:18,080
husband and our three children 
and I moved to a piece of land 

350
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,640
we purchased on Sugarloaf 
Mountain West of Boulder. 

351
00:19:21,120 --> 00:19:24,600
At the time my husband managed 
the Tavern and a lot of five 

352
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,480
acre silver mining claim for a 
very low price from an 

353
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:30,760
acquaintance at the bar. 
Using a paper napkin as build a 

354
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:34,920
sail, we built a small 12 by 16 
foot cabin on the site on the 

355
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,760
South side of the mountain about
2/3 of the way along the 

356
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,880
original mining Rd. 
The cabin was situated on the 

357
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:45,880
only flat area of a heavily 
forested and rocky parcel. 

358
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,480
The north side of the cabin was 
built against the mountain slope

359
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:53,280
surrounded by pine trees. 
The side of the structure has 

360
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:57,000
two plywood sections high, 
making it slightly over 16 feet 

361
00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,760
tall. 
Inside, we had a large plywood 

362
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,520
platform bunk bed in the 
northeast corner. 

363
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:05,560
My husband and I, along with her
baby daughters, slept on the 

364
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:09,200
lower level while our two sons 
slept on the upper level. 

365
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:13,440
A small window was installed in 
their loft for ventilation. 

366
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:16,600
With a shutter that could be 
closed during the cold weather, 

367
00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:18,960
the temperatures there could 
drop significantly. 

368
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:23,800
Our first winter reached as low 
as 40° below 0. 

369
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:28,240
It was likely the second autumn 
we spent there in 1971 when the 

370
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:32,320
incident occurred. 
Our 5 1/2 year old son told us 

371
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:36,360
he heard footsteps early in the 
evening after a strange sound 

372
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:40,440
which he described as animal 
like but was difficult to 

373
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:44,320
articulate at his young age. 
He said it was like a call of 

374
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:47,480
some kind, louder and deeper 
than an owl hoot. 

375
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:51,720
Shortly after, he heard rustling
noises close to the cabin. 

376
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:54,960
When he looked out through the 
open and shuttered window, he 

377
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:58,480
came face to face with what he 
described as a monster. 

378
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:00,920
I'll never forget his terrified 
screams. 

379
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:04,160
Once he calmed down, he 
explained that it was dark and 

380
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:07,120
covered in hair with a funny 
face and glowing eyes. 

381
00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:10,480
He said the creature turned and 
ran away when he began 

382
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:13,440
screaming. 
His older brother, who was two 

383
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:17,080
years older, slept through the 
entire incident until the 

384
00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:21,520
commotion woke us all. 
Given the sharp incline of the 

385
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:25,160
ground outside the cabin, we 
estimate we estimated that 

386
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:28,880
whatever was peering through the
loft window had to be at least 7

387
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:31,640
to 8 feet tall. 
The next day, we look for 

388
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,880
evidence but, lacking tracking 
skills, found none. 

389
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:39,480
To this day, my son, who is now 
nearly 35 years old, swears he 

390
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:41,560
saw Bigfoot. 
I believe him. 

391
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:45,240
At his young age there was no 
way he could have fabricated 

392
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:49,360
such specific auditory and 
visual details or faked his 

393
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,080
genuine terror. 
Just this morning he visited us 

394
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,120
and I told him about an article 
I read in the post. 

395
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:59,240
He reiterated his story saying 
the memory he had stayed vivid 

396
00:21:59,360 --> 00:22:01,720
and will likely never leave him.
Wow. 

397
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:05,680
Also noticed footsteps outside 
the cabin in a strange call 

398
00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:07,440
louder and deeper than AL's 
Hoot. 

399
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:11,320
The witness Only my young son 
witnessed a creature, but two 

400
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:13,960
adults and two other children 
were in the cabin at the time. 

401
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,440
Other stories None. 
We never told anyone about the 

402
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:18,400
incident because we were afraid 
people would think we were 

403
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,840
crazy. 
Time and conditions. 

404
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:24,240
Nighttime, likely with a good 
moon as a boy was able to see 

405
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:26,640
clearly. 
There was no snow on the ground.

406
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,560
Pine forest with some rock 
formations. 

407
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:33,440
The area had previously been an 
active silver mine and still had

408
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:37,040
a large pit at the end of the 
road leading to the property. 

409
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,400
Follow up investigation I spoke 
with the witness's mother who 

410
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:43,080
confirmed that her son, now 35, 
did not want to be interviewed 

411
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:44,920
but shared additional 
recollections with her. 

412
00:22:45,360 --> 00:22:48,440
She and her son revisited the 
old home years later. 

413
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:50,960
They determined that for 
anything to look into the 

414
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:54,840
upstairs window, it would need 
to be at least 7 to 8 feet tall.

415
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:59,400
The son remembered the creature 
having strangely glowing pupils 

416
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:01,000
eyes. 
He was so frightened by the 

417
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,680
sight of the creature that he 
raced down the ladder from the 

418
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:06,280
loft and began kneeling, the 
front door shut. 

419
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,840
He said he was going to save us 
all from the monster at the 

420
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:11,760
mother recounted. 
Wow, that would probably just 

421
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,480
scare the living daylights out 
of a little kid, I would think. 

422
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:16,880
Wow. 
We'll do a couple more here. 

423
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:18,760
This one here is from Boulder, 
Co. 

424
00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:25,040
It says August 1964 Location 
details Benden Hwy. 

425
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:29,960
Small sandbar area into stream 
where we were picnicking. 

426
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:32,400
Sheer Rockwall on north side of 
the stream. 

427
00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:35,000
Tan collared and reddish brown 
sandstone. 

428
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:40,200
Some pine trees on top of Cliff.
Nearest town Lyons nearest Rd. 

429
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:43,160
I believe it was Colorado 7 
observed. 

430
00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:46,320
I grew up in Boulder, Co and my 
parents quit farming in Nebraska

431
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:50,360
and moved to Logmont in 1960. 
During the summer we would go up

432
00:23:50,360 --> 00:23:54,200
to Big Thompson Canyon over St. 
Vrain to camp and picnic. 

433
00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,840
In the summer of 1964 we were 
picnicking along the Saint Vrain

434
00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,240
stream. 
We had started a campfire. 

435
00:24:00,360 --> 00:24:02,400
You could do that then. 
And while I was looking for 

436
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,840
wood, I felt like I was being 
stared at. 

437
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:07,520
I looked up at the top of the 
sheer Rockwall. 

438
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:09,800
About 30 feet up. 
I saw him. 

439
00:24:10,120 --> 00:24:14,000
I can see him like yesterday. 
He was looking at me and as soon

440
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:15,960
as I saw him, he turned and 
left. 

441
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:20,880
He was very large, probably 8 
feet tall, and had long graying 

442
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,240
hair. 
His face was darker and did 

443
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:25,920
almost and did almost look 
human. 

444
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,800
No one believed me, of course, 
but I can still see his eyes 

445
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:32,360
looking at me before he turned. 
So I've always believed in their

446
00:24:32,360 --> 00:24:34,840
existence. 
Also notice there was none. 

447
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,280
No other witnesses, no other 
stories, times and conditions. 

448
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,200
About 1:00 PM on a sunny bright 
day. 

449
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:41,160
Environment on the mountain 
Ridge. 

450
00:24:41,360 --> 00:24:43,760
Here's a follow up investigation
by Dennis Full. 

451
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:47,000
After speaking with the witness 
on the phone, we were able to 

452
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:50,080
get a more accurate location of 
his sighting which was along the

453
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:53,280
South St. 
Vrain River Canyon off of Hwy. 7

454
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:55,360
from Lyons, Co near the Big 
Narrows. 

455
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,680
Verdell lives in Nebraska but 
remembers the events of that day

456
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,480
like it was yesterday, even 
though these events happened 

457
00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:05,120
nearly 44 years ago. 
He was walking by himself 

458
00:25:05,120 --> 00:25:07,880
looking for firewood and 
throwing rocks into the water. 

459
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:10,160
Office Saint Rain Rd. 
St. 

460
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:13,440
Rain River near the Big Narrows 
while his family was enjoying a 

461
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:17,160
picnic nearby. 
He then got an unusual feeling 

462
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,720
he was being watched and looked 
up at the Canyon wall that was 

463
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:22,920
in front of him on the other 
side of the river. 

464
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:27,120
It was then that he saw what he 
describes as a large, possibly 8

465
00:25:27,120 --> 00:25:31,480
foot tall, hair covered man like
creature standing on a rocky 

466
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:34,440
ledge about 50 feet higher than 
he was. 

467
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,880
It seemed. 
It seemed as startled as he was 

468
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:41,440
when they saw each other. 
It then turned and disappeared 

469
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:44,920
from his view. 
He described it as having mostly

470
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,960
white Gray colored hair with 
streaks of brown. 

471
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,720
Its overall body seemed to be 
well built like that of a 

472
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:54,080
football player. 
The hair was about 3 to 4 inches

473
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:57,640
in length uniformly over the 
body with the exception of the 

474
00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:01,720
hair on the head which seemed a 
bit longer and flowed down the 

475
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:05,400
sides of his head like a person 
with the hair parted on top. 

476
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:10,040
The face looked human like with 
some gorilla features, but was 

477
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:14,440
nearly hairless and described as
having dark colored grayish 

478
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:17,200
skin. 
He could not see any eye color, 

479
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:21,200
but his mouth seemed very wide. 
The entire encounter lasted 

480
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:23,280
nearly 30 seconds, then it was 
gone. 

481
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:26,040
Yeah, all these years later, 
just remember it was like it was

482
00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:29,240
yesterday or something I guess. 
Why wouldn't you? 

483
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:32,920
This last one says was submitted
by a witness on Monday, January 

484
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:36,400
14th, 2002. 
Actual sighting was November 

485
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:40,560
5th, 2001. 
The location is Eagle County, 

486
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:43,680
Colorado. 
Details sighting occurred off 

487
00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:46,480
I-70 between Minturn and 
Edwards. 

488
00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:49,120
Nearest town Eagle, nearest road
I-70. 

489
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:53,040
I lived in Colorado for 29 
years, with eighteen of those 

490
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,120
years spent working at ski 
resorts. 

491
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:58,920
Over time, I've seen hundreds of
deer and elk, as well as dozens 

492
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:02,360
of bears ranging from Cubs to 
large 400 LB males. 

493
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:05,960
However, in the last four years 
I've had three separate 

494
00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,720
sightings of four creatures I 
hesitate to identify. 

495
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:13,440
My third sighting occurred 
November 2001 between Vale and 

496
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:15,840
Eagle. 
I was driving West on I-70 with 

497
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:18,440
my girlfriend, who was sound 
asleep next to me. 

498
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:21,960
It was around 10 PMA day or two 
after the full moon. 

499
00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:25,480
A heavy snowstorm had created 
near whiteout conditions, but 

500
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:27,160
then the snow stopped for a few 
minutes. 

501
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:30,120
Although it was night time, the 
combination of the large moon 

502
00:27:30,120 --> 00:27:32,600
and fresh snow made everything 
bright. 

503
00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:36,280
As I rounded a long curve on the
highway, my headlights 

504
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:39,040
illuminated 2 figures walking in
the middle of the Colorado 

505
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:42,080
River. 
My initial thought was Oh no, 

506
00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,680
these people must have crashed 
into the river and are trying to

507
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:47,560
get back to the highway. 
I started to pull my Jeep to the

508
00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:50,800
side of the road, but as I got 
closer I realized they weren't 

509
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:54,000
people. 
Instead I saw two fuzzy human 

510
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:57,880
shaped figures with very long 
arms walking downriver. 

511
00:27:58,120 --> 00:28:01,400
I could only see them from the 
knees up, but it was clear they 

512
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:04,560
were upright bipeds with visible
elbows and knees. 

513
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:07,800
I quickly stopped the car just 
past them and turned on my 

514
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:10,480
emergency flashers. 
There was no break in the snow 

515
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,360
bank on the side of the road, 
which ruled out a vehicle 

516
00:28:13,360 --> 00:28:15,680
accident. 
With my girlfriend still asleep,

517
00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:18,600
I got out of the car and stood 
on the snow bank looking up 

518
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:22,040
river for the figures. 
It was about 20°F. 

519
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:25,160
When they didn't appear around 
the bend, I considered backing 

520
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:28,120
up my car to get a better look. 
However, as soon as I turned on 

521
00:28:28,120 --> 00:28:31,040
my reverse lights, the semi 
truck came around the corner and

522
00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:33,440
nearly hit us. 
I decided to park again and wait

523
00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:36,200
a few more minutes. 
I had a camera with a flash in 

524
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:38,880
the car and briefly thought 
about taking a picture, but I 

525
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:41,960
couldn't bring myself to wake my
girlfriend to explain why I was 

526
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:44,760
running back up the highway to 
photograph Mr. and Misses 

527
00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:47,000
Bigfoot. 
I also didn't want to leave her 

528
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,440
asleep on the side of a snow 
covered highway. 

529
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:53,080
When the snow started falling 
again, I gave up and drove home.

530
00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:55,880
Of my three sightings, I find 
the third one the most 

531
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:58,200
compelling. 
While someone in the costume 

532
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:00,840
could have fooled me during the 
first two sightings, it seems 

533
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:04,360
highly unlikely that anyone in a
costume would survive walking in

534
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:06,520
the middle of the Eagle River at
night. 

535
00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:09,960
While time and condition is 
number 5th. 2001 Around 10:00 PM

536
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:12,040
There was a break in the 
snowfall with a large moon 

537
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:15,400
providing light environment of 
forested mountainous River 

538
00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:18,560
Valley. 
The witness, age 42, has 

539
00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:21,240
extensive experience in 
Colorado's Backcountry through 

540
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:25,880
fishing and mountain biking. 
Detailed Descriptions We were 

541
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:29,000
driving W when the Eagle River 
shifted to the north side of the

542
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:32,240
highway. 
It was on a long sloping curve 

543
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:35,160
to the right when I saw the 
outline of two figures in the 

544
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:38,080
river. 
My thought was that someone had 

545
00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:41,120
driven into the water. 
As I slowed down and pulled 

546
00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:43,240
over, I looked back at the 
figures. 

547
00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:45,800
The shorter 1 turned and looked 
directly at me. 

548
00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,560
It appeared as though the taller
1 was holding the shorter one's 

549
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:50,360
arm. 
When the shorter one took a 

550
00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:53,160
step, I could clearly see its 
knees and elbow. 

551
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:56,880
The larger figures seem to tug 
at the shorter one's arm as if 

552
00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:00,720
urging it to move along. 
I wasn't driving more than 15 

553
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:04,840
mile per hour and they were only
about 30 feet away with the snow

554
00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:07,800
bank separating us. 
These creatures were upright, 

555
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:10,720
free bipeds with visible arms 
and elbows. 

556
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:14,200
They didn't have snouts or round
ears like a bear, nor did they 

557
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:17,400
look like humans. 
If two humans were out there, 

558
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:19,800
they wouldn't have survived long
in that river. 

559
00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:23,160
The smaller figure was about my 
height, 5 foot 11, while the 

560
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:25,560
taller 1 was easily a foot 
taller. 

561
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:28,800
Compared to the creatures from 
my earlier sightings, these two 

562
00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:31,960
appeared thinner with narrow 
shoulders and small heads. 

563
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:35,320
My initial thought was that they
were a male and a smaller 

564
00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:38,760
female, but later I wondered if 
it was an adult with a juvenile.

565
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:42,400
Their faces were unlike anything
I'd seen before. 

566
00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:45,960
The shorter 1 turned to look at 
me and his face resembled a 

567
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:50,000
hairy black human face. 
It's nose didn't have the Ridge 

568
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:53,960
that humans have, instead it 
appeared to have two nostrils, 

569
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:57,320
holes, and lips. 
I could see patches of skin on 

570
00:30:57,320 --> 00:31:00,520
the cheekbones and around the 
nose, but his face was mostly 

571
00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:03,040
covered in fur. 
Its eyes were large and locked 

572
00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:05,960
onto mine. 
I stopped as close as I could to

573
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:09,080
the bank, got out of the car and
run up to look for them. 

574
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:11,960
I waited for about four or five 
minutes, but they never came 

575
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:14,680
into view. 
I don't think their necks are as

576
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:16,800
flexible as ours. 
When they turned to look at me, 

577
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:19,880
they rotated their upper torsos,
similar to how someone with a 

578
00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:23,200
neck injury might move. 
You can tell this guy was really

579
00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:26,680
affected by the siding because 
he pulls his car over all on the

580
00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:29,240
highway. 
Had to get a better look at it. 

581
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,320
And this is after he tells you 
that he's almost gotten hit by a

582
00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:34,760
truck the first time he he tried
to do that. 

583
00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:36,720
Well, anyway, some really cool 
sightings. 

584
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:39,320
They're a Bigfoot out in 
Colorado. 

585
00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:42,720
Hope you enjoyed those today. 
Until next time, this is UFO 

586
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:43,840
warning over and out.
