Hello and welcome to the program UFO Warning.
In this episode we're talking about Utah Bigfoot reports.
That's correct. Utah Bigfoot reports.
Found these over at bigfootreports.net.
That's bfro.net. Lots of cool reports over there.
This first demo was reported on July 27th, 2006.
It says the actual day of the sighting was in August of 2001.
This was Beaver County, Utah Location details A remote wooded
area with lots of wildlife. Summers are nice and pleasant
while winters are extremely cold.
The area has streams, ponds, and lakes.
A beautiful place. To get there, take a road E out
of Beaver for about 12 miles into the forest, then a dirt Rd.
for about 18 miles to Lebaron Reservoir.
You know, if you're like a lot of us and you don't live in
these remote areas, just imagine that 18 mile long dirt Rd.
Man, hard for me to even comprehend.
Nearest town Beaver, Utah. Nearest road I-15 observed.
I'm glad I came across this site.
It has helped me deal with my experience.
In August 2001 while camping at Fish Lake National Forest, Utah,
my girlfriend, our dogs and I had an unforgettable experience.
We often camp near Beaver, UT around July 4th, but due to the
crowds we started going in mid August to more remote areas to
get away from people. On a Wednesday morning around
9:00 AM, we were fishing at Lebaron Reservoir.
The day was sunny and warming up, although the nights were
chilly. We hadn't seen anyone in or
around our camp or fishing spots for two days.
While standing at the water's edge casting my lure, I noticed
what I thought was a bear drinking from the lake about 200
yards away to my right. At my 2:00, I called my
girlfriend's attention to it. She's like me, nervous but also
intrigued. Then she said it's standing up.
I responded, wholly expletive. I've never been so scared in my
life. Though I didn't feel directly
threatened, what we observed was something walking upright, like
a human, covered in dark brown hair.
It moved back into the woods and didn't seem to notice us or
didn't care that we were there. I'm convinced that what we saw
was Bigfoot, and there's no other animal that resembles what
we saw that day. We didn't investigate further.
Instead, we returned to camp, packed up, and went home.
Since then, we've gone back to camping around July 4th at
state-run Campgrounds. Wow, what a sighting.
Then again, 18 miles into the timber down Dirt Rd. it says.
Also notice everything seemed normal except for one odd
detail. This was the first and only time
my dog didn't bark at what appeared to be a hairy man.
She just stared at it like we did.
Smart dog. Other witnesses too, including
myself. We were fishing.
Other stories, No time and condition. 9:00 AM.
Completely sunny, about 65° with a light breeze.
A small lake surrounded by pine and white trees with grassy and
rocky areas in some parts. Finished his follow up
investigation in a phone conversation on 9/12/2006.
The witness described the sighting in detail.
He first thought he saw a dark brown bear drinking at the edge
of the lake roughly 200 yards to his right.
He called his girlfriend to look and then the animal stood up.
At that point, he realized that the broad shouldered muscular
frame wasn't a bear. The couple watched as a creature
turned and retreated up the bank, pausing to look back
briefly. The Bigfoot then moved away from
the water, appearing to Bob sideways as it was looking at
something through the trees in another direction.
The couple left her camp in a hurry and never returned to that
area. They didn't discuss the
experience with anyone else until now.
The witness estimated the Bigfoot's height at six to seven
feet tall. He was particularly impressed by
its muscular and athletic build. The sighting lasted
approximately 10 seconds. Isn't that something?
Just imagine being out there, that remote of that area, just
saying Bigfoot just meltdown by the lake, getting a drink.
Very, very cool. Take a look at this next one.
This next one says submitted by witness MBD on Wednesday, May
12th, 1999. Tracks found by a family hunting
for arrowheads. The sighting happened in
November of 1997, also from Beaver County, Utah.
Location details are approximately 2 miles north of
Manorfield between the highway and I-15 at the top of the hill
near the Manorfield exit. This location is almost directly
across the highway from Indian Creek.
Nearest town Manorfield. Nearest road I-15 near the top
of the hill at Manorfield exit. Well, searching for arrowheads
with my wife and sister-in-law, my wife called me over to look
at a track she had found. The track was in front of a
small cedar tree approximately 5 feet tall.
I spent a lot of time in the hills and mountains and am
familiar with different types of tracks, including bare tracks.
However, this was unlike anything I had ever seen.
The track had a shape similar to a human foot, but was much
larger. I wore a size 10 1/2 cowboy
boot, and the main portion of the track was about the same
length as my foot. However, the toes extended
another 7 to 9 inches beyond that.
The track was impressed into the earth approximately 1/2 inch.
The track measured 8 to 9 inches wide at its widest point and
five to six inches at its narrowest.
The foot appeared to be a left foot.
The most unusual feature was that the track had only three
toes. I don't know if this is common,
but this particular track clearly had only three toes.
It was well defined and I would estimate that it was made
earlier that same day. While searching further, I found
another track. This one was less definite but
appeared similar. It was located on the other side
of the cedar trees. The stride between the two
tracks was approximately 8 feet. Based on the positioning of the
tracks and the cedar tree, the creature would have had to step
over the five foot tall tree. The area is surrounded by cedar
trees. A large mountain range, 2 shower
range lies just to the east, while smaller range Mineral
Range is to the West. Location is near the bottom of
the valley between the two ranges, which are relatively
close together. I mean, just finding footprints
that big, my goodness, that'd be enough for me.
This says. Submitted by witness Michael
Stephen Ralph on Saturday, August 16th, 1997 sighting by by
grouse Hunters. The actual sighting was
September 15th, 1976, Box Elder County, Utah, nearest town
Brigham City and Logan observed. The first encounter occurred
east of Brigham City, UT, above a place called Upper Docks Flat.
I was hiking with a friend, Kenny A.
I prefer not to use his last name without permission.
We had been hiking all morning, moving higher and higher through
the valleys and a zigzag pattern.
At one point we ascended a Ridge and found an old cabin at the
top. Locals referred to it as the Old
Sheepherder's Cabin. In front of the cabin was a
small pond with Clearwater, likely fed by a natural spring.
As we approached the cabin, my friend knelt by the pond to
drink from it. I started examining the smooth
dirt around the pond and noticed something unusual.
I asked Kenny if he noticed anything odd, and he said no.
I pointed out that there were no tracks around the pond, not even
bird tracks, despite its location.
This made Kenny nervous as he didn't share the same outdoor
curiosity that I did. After about 15 minutes, we
decided to head back. Halfway down the Ridge, Kenny
heard grouse or sage hens on the opposite side of the Canyon.
He wanted to hunt them, so I handed him a a disassembled
single shot shotgun from my backpack, gave him some shells,
and told him I'd stay on our side of the Canyon while he hung
on the other. I watched as he moved cautiously
down to the bottom of the draw. As he climbed up the opposite
slope, he encountered a dense, thorny brush which slowed him
down. I saw him struggle to entangle
himself in their branches as he moved forward.
Suddenly, Kenny screamed in pain, likely from a thorn
snagging his arm. At that moment, I heard a loud
crashing noise higher up on the slope, as if a massive rock had
been dropped from the sky. The sound repeated rapidly.
Thunk, thunk, thunk, like a large object hitting the ground.
Scanning the hillside, I saw it. About 400 yards above Kenny, a
tall figure was running toward him.
My heart raced as I yelled for Kenny to get out of there.
He finally heard me and the approaching noise.
Turning to run back through the thorns in his panic, he
accidentally fired the shotgun. At the sound of the shot, the
figure stopped abruptly and then turned to retreat up the hill.
When Kenny reached me, he was out of breath, bleeding from the
thorns and visibly shaken. I reassured him that I saw the
figure run away after the shot. The figure I saw was
approximately 7 to 8 feet tall, covered in dark reddish brown
hair with a white cap. The initial distance was about
500 to 600 yards, but it got closer as it approached Kenny.
After we returned to our starting point, we left the area
as quickly as possible. It took Kenny nearly two weeks
before he was willing to talk about what happened.
I guess so it says. Also notice everything's here
normal until we reach the Canyon near the cabin.
Other witnesses. Kenny was attempting to cross to
the other side of the Canyon when he became caught in a thorn
Bush. From 1976 to 1978, I had three
separate encounters. If a credible researcher
contacts me, I'd be willing to share more details.
I've been an outdoorsman since childhood.
While most kids were afraid of the dark, I was sleeping under
the stars. At age 14, my father would leave
me alone in the mountains for a week, and I learned how to
survive and feed myself. I've seen incredible things in
nature, as well as the events that defy that defy explanation.
While I'm not an English major, I know what I saw and I
understand nature. And tends to destroy what he
fears or doesn't understand. Which is why I've only shared
this one incident so far. I have deep respect for nature,
which may come from the Native American blood in my veins.
I wish more people shared this respect.
It might lead to a healthier environment and fewer extinct
animals. This experience taught me that
life always has more to teach pretty well.
This is the environment. The sighting occurred on a sunny
afternoon with clear visibility in mild weather.
The area featured in the old cabin, a small pond, a variety
of trees, semi steep terrain as small meadows.
This one is dated October 20th, 2007, says Cache County, Utah.
Location details Wellsville Mountains West of Logan.
I was 21 years old and had returned about six months
earlier from living in Japan for two years.
The general season mule deer hunt had just opened and I
decided to go hunting one day after my college classes ended.
I remember thinking how frustrating it was to have to
attend classes during hunting season.
As I drove, more like slid my car up a snowy Rd.
I turned off the paved Rd. onto a farm Rd. passed a house under
construction and parked in a small trailhead lot.
And instead of hiking up the mountain, I walked a short
distance around a field and set down on a steep slope
overlooking a valley, a few hills and some trees.
I set with my binoculars watching deer bedded down in the
trees, wondering why they weren't forging for nuts or
grasses. As I watched, I heard a loud
crashing sound coming from the trees near the house and barn
that was under construction. It was so close to the house
that I thought it might have been watching them through my
binoculars, I saw a large black shape moving through the heavy
cover. At first I thought it was a
black bear, but it didn't have the bouncing motion that bears
exhibit when they run. Due to their shorter front legs.
This creature moved gracefully. I watched as it plowed through a
thick brush like a bull reaching more open ground within the
trees. That's when I realized how
strange it was. It was moving on two legs and at
an incredible speed. All the deer bolted, running in
the opposite direction, but I kept my binoculars trained on
that creature. In amazement.
I saw it head straight into a massive stand of buck brush, so
thick I couldn't imagine getting through it even with a machete.
Yet it bulldoze through the brush at a phenomenal pace and
disappeared over a Ridge in seconds.
I've haunted in hiked alone for years and have come face to face
with both black bears and mountain lions.
I've never been as terrified as I was in that moment.
I immediately chambered around my rifle and backed away, never
turning my back on the spot. I got in my car and left.
Since then, my dad, brother and brother-in-law and law
enforcement wanted to return to the area because we've seen deer
there, but I refuse to go back. Even when I hunt the other end
of the Wellsville Mountains, I always stick with someone
because of this experience. It reminds me of some of these
misery person cases where they find the bodies and the people
look like they've been drugged through the woods at high speed.
It's pretty awful thought thinking about some poor soul
being kidnapped at one of these Bigfoot.
And then just carry it through buck brush or timber or whatever
with the stuff, just striking it, you know, 20-30 mile an
hour, you just plow through it. It's almost inhuman, I mean the
way these things move. Also noticed after learning that
Bigfoot reportedly uses sticks or rocks to communicate, I
wondered if the creature was attracted at the sounds of
hammers and nail guns being used on the House under construction.
No other witnesses. Other stories?
I haven't heard of any other incidents in the area, but I
don't share this story often, only with close family members.
So as it was mid afternoon around 3:00 PM, Cold weather
with fresh snow on the ground, Overcast but still bright
environment. The valley has an old Creek that
flows in the spring to early summer surrounded by thick oak
brush and maples. The trees are more open in some
areas but the brush is extremely dense.
There was a follow up investigation done by Todd
Strong. It says the Wellsville Mountains
are a designated wilderness area known for being some of the
steepest and most rugged mountains in northern Utah.
The area has abundant wildlife including mule deer, but very
few roads and trails. After interviewing the witness,
I can add the following details. The witness was familiar with
the area, having haunted and scouted there before.
He has been hunting since he was 14 years old.
It was a clear afternoon and the witness observed the creature
for approximately 30 seconds. He clearly saw definition in the
creature's biceps, triceps, and abdominal muscles.
It was very muscular and athletic, moving uphill through
10 foot tall oak brush while using its arms to shield his
face for protection. The motion resembled that of a
massive football player bulldozing through a defensive
line. The witness doubted that he
could have even walked through the thick scrub oak, let alone
run through it. The witness is credible and
believable. Man, what a story.
This report was actually submitted on May 18th, 2008.
ATV writers describe dusk encounter in the Monte Cristo
mountain range. It happened in September of
1999. Cache County, Utah Nearest town
Huntsville nearest Rd. Ant Flat Rd. observed in late
September 1999. My seven-year old son and I were
working in the mountains above Huntsville, UT.
We were excavating a cabin site and decided to camp on site to
avoid the two hour commute each way.
We camped there for seven days. On the 5th day, after finishing
our work, we decided to go for a ride on the four Wheeler.
It was about an hour before sunset when we began our
journey. We rode for a while until we
decided to head back to camp. We turned around at what
appeared to be an old campsite just off the road.
By then the sun had set behind the mountains and the shadows
were blending together. It was quickly turning to dusk.
As we made the turn and started back onto the road, my son
tapped me on his shoulder and urged me to go faster.
I turned to see what he was looking at and couldn't believe
my eyes. About 50 feet away, a large,
upright creature was actually strolling parallel to us.
It stood about 7 to 8 feet tall and moved with a stride I will
never forget. It walked smoothly along an old
fence line and turned into the woods disappeared.
Its coloration was dark and it didn't seem to be coming toward
us. Out of panic I took off as fast
as I could and didn't turn back for a better look, something I
deeply regret. When we arrived back at camp,
about 5 miles down the mountain, we build a large fire and spent
a sleepless night thinking about what we'd seen.
Don't blame you. Other witnesses too.
My son and I Time and conditions.
It was dusk, I could see the figure but not much detail due
to the lighting. The weather had been clear all
day. Environment, Pine and quaking
Aspen trees. An old fence line surrounded
what seemed to be a former sheep camp.
A follow up investigation report.
I spoke with the father and son about this incident and found
them to be credible witnesses. The encounter remains a vivid
memory for both of them, even nine years later.
The location is approximately 25 miles east of Brigham City and
18 miles northeast of Huntsville in the Monte Cristo Range of the
larger Bear River Range in the Wasatch and Cash National
Forest. It is east of Ant Flat Rd. in
Ant Valley and South of the Hardware Ranch Wildlife
Management Area. The creature was walking
parallel to the witness, heading in the same direction as her
ATV, and was about 50 feet away at the time of the fence, on the
same side of the fence line. It did not look at them and
maintained a steady, casual pace.
Its movements were direct and deliberate, giving the
impression that it knew what it was doing and where it was
going. It disappeared into the nearest
cover of trees. The witness described its stride
as upright, stiff, and rigid, but smooth.
The figure was estimated to be at least 7 to 8 feet tall,
evenly dark colored, fairly broad but not overly huge.
It had long bangs and hair on its head, and its blocky head
was slightly leaned forward. The father estimated the
creature was in their sight for about 7 to 10 seconds and
covered roughly 100 feet during that time.
While it was nearing dusk, there was still enough daylight to see
clearly and the witnesses were confident about what they saw.
The father and son continued camping in the area for a few
more days to complete their job, but did not see or hear anything
else unusual. Investigator David Petty.
Very, very cool stuff. We'll do about three more here
and then we'll wrap this up. This sighting here was actually
submitted April 3rd, 2001 by Bob Ellis.
Says white creature in Utah desert exhibits scouting
behavior on a Ridge above hikers, May 19th, 1994, Garfield
County, Utah. Nearest town Boulder, UT.
Nearest Rd. Cannot remember the highway
number without a map observed in June 1996, I was hiking in the
Escaloni Wilderness on a bench between the Gulch and Deer
Creek. There are several Stony rises
between the two areas and my friend and I had to cross the
bench to reach our campsite at Deer Creek.
As we hiked westward, the sun was directly overhead.
I was the first to notice movement at the top of the rice,
less than a half a mile away and pointed it out to my companion.
We puzzled over what it could be.
I've hiked in this area for over 15 years and I've never seen
anyone up on the bench at this time of day.
Although it had a human shape, it was too large and its collar
was strikingly white paperwhite, not a natural skin tone.
The creature appeared to be pacing, as if searching for
something. Suddenly, I became aware that it
had spotted us. It ducked behind the rocky
outcroppings and was obscured from view.
As we approached the bench, we observed that the area where the
creature stood was on the highest point, requiring
significant climbing skills to reach.
Not knowing if it was dangerous or wanted to be left alone, and
being nearly exhausted from the hike and lower and low on water,
I decided we should continue hiking over the bench and down
to Deer Creek. About a half a mile down the
westward slope, we both felt like we were being watched.
When we turned to look back at the area where we had seen a
creature, it was watching us again, but quickly ducked out of
sight. I wrote about the experience in
my journal, which I've kept for many years, but I am now
recounting it from memory. I've never thought of this as a
Bigfoot sighting because I'd never heard of a white Bigfoot.
However, a friend of mine who is a Bigfoot enthusiast directed me
to this site. I'm still unsure what it was,
though I'm relatively certain it wasn't human.
It was too large and entirely white.
It sounds like an albino Bigfoot to me.
This is also notice no additional observations 2
witnesses myself and my hiking companion.
Time and conditions Around 1:00 to 2:00 PM.
The weather was clear and dry. The area of the sighting was
free of trees and rush, but stone formations obscured the
creature at times. Environment The area was between
Deer Creek and the Gulch north of Escalant of the Escalante
River and South of Boulder. Follow up report Additional
details emerged during phone conversations with Bob.
He is a guide in the area where the sighting occurred and has
been backpacking there annually for about 20 years.
Over this time, he has seen much wildlife but nothing resembling
what he saw that day. He also noted that he had never
encountered another person on the bench during his hikes.
The area is described as one of the most wild places in the
contiguous United States, located between Bryce Canyon,
Capitol Reef and Canyonlands National Parks and Glen Canyon
National Recreation Area. It is a desert of white and Hard
Rock, rolling hills, gullies, pinon pine, sagebrush, and
wildlife such as Beaver, Mountain Lion, deer and fish.
The location has many canyons and Cliff dwellings.
Water is a limiting factor in this region, requiring both
humans and wildlife to stay near water sources or plan their
movements accordingly. The Ridge where the white
creature was seen is approximately 1 and a half, 1
1/2 miles from Deer Creek. The creature was first observed
as Bob and his friend were ascending from the Golly onto
the bench. It was pacing back and forth in
the Ridge with one arm raised, shading his eyes, and seemed to
be searching the horizon. It was so intent on looking out
that it didn't notice the two hikers for about 10 to 15
minutes. The creature was described as
being between 7:00 and 9:00 feet tall, pure white, capable of
agile movements. It would have blended with the
white rock if you'd from above, but from below it was visible
against the blue sky. The hikers didn't feel afraid,
but chose not to approach it, much as one would avoid
approaching a bear. The witness was hesitant to
classify the creature as a Sasquatch, but conceded that it
was some sort of humanoid, too big and too agile to be human.
After hearing about white Sasquatch sightings from a
trusted friend, Bob acknowledged that what he saw might have been
in one of those. Bob originally estimated the
sighting occurred in 1996, but after reviewing his journal, it
was determined to have taken place in 1994.
Yeah, what a cool sighting. We'll do two more here.
We're told this one was submitted January 10th, 2008.
Says trucker truck driver swerves to miss Bigfoot crossing
I-15 near Skipio. Actual sighting January 8th,
2008. So just a couple days before
they reported it. Millard County, Utah Location
details right on I-15 South of the freeway nearest town Skipio
nearest road I-15 Southside Observed.
Editor's Note. The original submission is from
the witness's mother, whom he called immediately after the
experience. ABFRO investigator subsequently
interviewed a witness. The notes from this interview
are shown below. This is not a second hand
report. Only first hand reports are
allowed in the BFR of a database with very limited exceptions.
Original Submission. I'm writing this for my son
David. He called me this morning around
1:30 AM. He was excited and upset,
telling me and his dad that he finally believes in Bigfoot.
He was driving South on I-15 when he encountered fog.
He said he turned on his fog lights to see better without
using his main lights. He stated that he saw glowing
eyes and turned on his headlights only to see a Bigfoot
running in front of his semi truck.
He swerved to avoid hitting it. After getting the truck under
control, he pulled over to the side of the road, completely
spooked. He said.
I know for a fact now that they exist.
He had always been skeptical, but described the creature as
looking like a girl's face. They made eye contact.
It walked upright like a man, but it was hairy over all.
He said his leg was the size of his entire body.
He asked me to write this for him.
He is now a true believer. Wow.
Notes from investigators interview with the witness.
This interview took place August 21st, 2008.
The witness described the incident as a hell of an
experience. At the time he was a truck
driver like potatoes from Idaho heading South on I-15 towards
St. George, UT around 1:30 to 2:00
AM. He was driving uphill into a
patch of fog and turned on his fog lights.
Initially the fog wasn't too heavy, but as he reached the top
of the hill, shifted from 10th to 9th gear, it became denser.
At this point he noticed the reflection of glowing eyes,
which he assumed was a deer, off to the side of the road.
When he turned on his bright headlights, he saw Bigfoot,
described as a large upright creature, stride across the road
from left to right. The creature took long,
deliberate strides. The witness swerved to avoid
hitting it, momentarily losing control of his truck.
After driving another 200 to 300 yards, he pulled off to the side
of the road, shook up and scared.
Looking in his mirror, he kept replaying the event in his mind,
thinking, I'm getting the hell out of here.
Despite being skeptical of Bigfoot before, he said he knew
what he saw. The creature was unlike anything
he had encountered before. As an avid hunter, he spends
much of his free time outdoors. It has seen numerous bears and
wildlife. He is adamant that what he saw
was not a bear. The creature was initially 30 to
40 yards away when he first saw its glowing eyes, but it was
only 20 feet away when he turned on his bright lights.
He estimated the creature stood 8 to 10 feet tall, weighed 600
to 800 lbs, and had long, lanky arms that were that were
proportionally longer than a human's.
His face resembled a gorilla with prominent eyebrows and
black hair. The creature crossed the freeway
in just two or three strides. Although the witness only saw it
for about 10 seconds, he described the encounter as
terrifying, He later said. I swear up and down I know what
I saw. It looked right at me and that's
really cool. Also notice the witness called
his mother and stepfather immediately after the encounter
as he was extremely shaken. Other witnesses, none the
witness was alone. The witness's stepfather, also a
truck driver, reported a separate incident near Fillmore
at 3:00 AM the previous year. While taking his dog out of the
truck, he heard a loud eerie noise resembling Bigfoot
vocalizations. He immediately got back into his
truck and left the area. He now avoids stopping there
Time and conditions around 1:25 AM with light to dense fog.
The area has a river running nearby with National Forest on
both sides of the freeway. In follow up investigation that
says reported by BFRO investigator Chad Hamblin, I
interviewed the witness and found him credible.
I believe he generally experienced what he described.
See the notes in the observed section above for more details
of my interview with the witness.
And then it says Chad Hamlin is a life science biology teacher
with a background in wildlife and outdoor activities.
He resides in rural northeastern Utah.
Chad participated in the first Utah BFR expedition in 2007 and
subsequent expeditions in O 9 and 2010.
He also attended expeditions in Wyoming in O 8, Bluff Creek,
California in 2011, in Idaho 2013.
Recently Chad had his own Bigfoot encounter while hiking
alone in Utah's unit of mountains.
OK, well I can believe it. Spending that much time in a
deep force like that. Very cool.
OK one last one. So here's our last report here.
This says it was submitted December 10th, 2008 to all
countries. And a tall bipedal creature
startle each other at Chalk Creek east of Coalville. 2004
fall October September time frame Summit County Utah
location details the area is CWMUS cooperative wildlife
management unit unit known as thousand peaks nearest town
coalville nearest Rd. chalk Creek Rd. observed I was hunting
with my brother-in-law and chalk Creek Summit County Utah.
We had been in a deep Canyon for some time and decided to head
out as it was getting dark. The memory is still vivid.
We were climbing out of a small draw onto a flat Meadow.
As we reached the top we both noticed something very black
moving into a small stand of pine trees.
It made out loud a wolf sound as it entered the trees and we saw
a pine bough flip from the ground to about 5 feet in the
air. In other words, this thing I'd
bent this tree over. My brother-in-law exclaimed.
What the heck was that as he loaded around into the Chamber
of his rifle. The stand of Pines was no larger
than a front yard with the turning behind it.
I thought about this many times and believed that we startled
the creature and it surprised us as well.
The creature was to our left while a Beaver Dam lay to our
right. It was only about 30 feet away,
partially concealed in the Pines.
We were on a deer path between the pond and the trees.
When we backed up, the creature emitted a low guttural sound and
we could hear its teeth chattering.
I have experienced a fear before, but this was different.
It felt like a sense of evil. On my way home, we discussed
what we had seen. We were so close to it that I'm
certain it wasn't a bear or a moose.
Bears don't move that fast on their hind legs.
I used to work at a Lagoon amusement park in Farmington
where I fed the animals. There was a leopard there that
would growl as you passed his cage.
The growl we heard on the mountain was almost identical to
that, but deeper and more menacing.
I've spent my entire life in the outdoors hunting and exploring,
but I've never seen or heard anything like this before.
Please give me a call. Wow.
Also notice I don't have a cell phone.
I'll provide my brother in I hadn't even mentioned Bigfoot
yet, he said I was the second person to report a sighting in
that same area. Time and conditions.
It was dusk environment of pine forest mixed with quaking Aspen.
Follow up investigation by BFRO investigator Todd Strong.
After interviewing the witness, I can add the following details
to his original account. The witness has worked as a
licensed hunting guide and is also a wildlife artist.
At the time of the incident, it was still wide enough to be
considered shooting light. The hunters surprised the
creature by walking with the wind in their faces, meaning it
couldn't detect them until they stepped into the clearing.
When they entered the clearing, the creature woofed at them,
moving a pine bow out of its way as it retreated into the trees.
They could only see the creature's upper body from about
5 feet off the ground upward, as the lower portion was obscured
by the drain. The estimated height of the
creature was about 9 feet. The witness is adamant that it
was a bipedal animal moving upright.
Its coat appeared to be jet black hair.
Not for After the growl, the creature clicked his teeth
together in a manner reminiscent of a cornered dog.
The noise was unsettling and reinforced their decision to
leave the area immediately. The witness described himself as
an experienced outdoorsman and emphasized that this was unlike
anything he had encountered before.
Under investigator notes, it says this area consists of
several small private ranches with abundant wildlife,
including deer and elk. The witness has agreed to take
me to the location in the spring.
Based on my interview, I found the witness to be credible and
sincere. What a cool sighting.
Sounds like a big one there. Just walked right up on this
thing out in this wilderness area.
Lots of cool stuff over at bfro.net.
As always, thanks to the folks over there that send these in,
and thanks to the folks that keep the site going.
What an asset we have there. Very much appreciate that.
Until next time, this is UFO warning over and out.
