1 00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:07,120 Hello and welcome to the program UFO Warning. 2 00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:10,120 In this episode, we're talking about a Nevada Bigfoot Roundup. 3 00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:13,120 That's correct, a Nevada Bigfoot Roundup. 4 00:00:13,120 --> 00:00:16,920 We found these awesome stories over at bfro.net. 5 00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:21,640 I'll put the link there at Kofi. As always, thanks to the folks 6 00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:23,120 that support the program over there. 7 00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:26,360 I also want to say thank you for all of the really cool comments 8 00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:29,640 I've gotten lately and the likes and follows and subscribes. 9 00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:31,440 It really does help the algorithm. 10 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,240 Now this first sighting comes to us. 11 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:39,840 Says it was submitted on August 11th 2007 but it happened back 12 00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:43,320 in February of 2005. They described the season as 13 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:46,080 winter. The county was Humboldt County, 14 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,160 Nevada. Location details. 15 00:00:48,160 --> 00:00:51,280 Says you can see the mountain from the outskirts of town. 16 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:54,760 You can basically see the peak of the mountain where the 17 00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:58,080 sighting occurred. Nearest town Winnemucca. 18 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:01,040 Nearest Rd. There was a small dirt Rd. 19 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:03,000 I don't think it was even marked. 20 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:07,920 Observed my uncle. My 6 year old cousin and I were 21 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,640 on one of our weekly expeditions to explore the surrounding 22 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:16,240 mountains in Winnemucca, Nevada. We were walking up the foot of a 23 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,360 mountain on the Ridge of a Washington and there was still 24 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:21,640 about a foot and a half of snow on the ground. 25 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:27,160 My cousin said she saw a guy standing on top of the mountain 26 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:33,080 and I replied there's no one up there, it's too far from any 27 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:36,360 civilization. It's probably just a juniper 28 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:42,120 Bush, but about 5 minutes later our £95 Doberman greyhound mix 29 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:46,800 made a mad dash underneath the truck at the foot of the 30 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,280 mountain. Our dog was not one to scare 31 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:51,920 easily. It scares away anything that 32 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,760 comes close to the house, and it even took on a Mountain Lion 33 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,240 once. It has scars on its upper belly 34 00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,120 to prove it. Just as my uncle and I looked 35 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:06,120 toward where my cousin was pointing, we heard a low droning 36 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,440 howl. What I thought was that Jennifer 37 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:13,320 Bush was now animated walking downward and swing side to side 38 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,320 slightly. It spooked us because on the way 39 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,480 up we had seen a completely decimated Cal carcass. 40 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:22,920 At that point we headed to the truck because we were pretty 41 00:02:22,920 --> 00:02:27,440 shaken up by what we had seen. We were reluctant to tell anyone 42 00:02:27,640 --> 00:02:30,720 for fear of being laughed at or ridiculed. 43 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,400 It says. Also notice the decimated Cal 44 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,320 carcass. It wasn't a bear because there 45 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,880 have never been any reports of bears in that area. 46 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:41,160 Other witnesses, my uncle and little cousin, other stories, 47 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,520 none that I know of. Time and conditions. 48 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,480 It was about an hour and a half before sunset. 49 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:50,200 It was a clear winter evening and the sun was behind the 50 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,360 mountain at that time. Environment. 51 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:56,440 Snowy mountainous landscape dotted with numerous Jennifer 52 00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:00,760 bushes and small Pines. Follow up investigation report 53 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,680 says BFRO investigator John Salman. 54 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:07,120 The witness said they watched the subject for close to 5 55 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,480 minutes. One of the comments that really 56 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:13,240 struck me was that of the young cousin who said there is a man 57 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:17,480 up there quote UN quote noting that the subject was on two legs 58 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,840 and moving like a man. It was also noticed that the 59 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:24,240 subject did not have a visible neck, and the head seemed to 60 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,960 slope into the shoulders. The figure was entirely black, 61 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,280 with no color variations or clothing lines. 62 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:35,920 It's size reminded the witness of a very large, burly guy. 63 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:37,920 I found the witness to be credible. 64 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:40,800 Wow. Yeah, three people see this 65 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,880 saying. John, Salmon says, grew up in 66 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,400 Utah and is a lifelong outdoorsman and former hunter. 67 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:49,120 His father owned a motel in West Hillstone where John would spend 68 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,520 summers exploring and photographing wildlife. 69 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:56,040 He is a certified visual tracker, level level 1 human 70 00:03:56,040 --> 00:04:00,960 tracker, Sasquatch emphasis, BFRO expeditions, and he's been 71 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:06,720 all over the place, man Northern California, Washington, UT, 72 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,920 Wyoming, you name it. This guy definitely has has his 73 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,920 bona fide he's a Bigfoot investigator. 74 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,079 Well, very cool sighting. Let's take a look at this next 75 00:04:16,079 --> 00:04:19,399 one here. This next sighting is dated 76 00:04:19,399 --> 00:04:24,880 October 2004. It says Esmeraldo County, Nevada 77 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,440 location details. It was about 1000 feet southeast 78 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:32,280 of the peak to Boundary Peak Mountain nearest town Dyer, 79 00:04:32,280 --> 00:04:35,400 Nevada nearest Rd. Canyon Trail Rd. 80 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,880 I had been a police officer in Nevada for over 19 years. 81 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:43,960 In 2004, two of my college roommates called me from Idaho 82 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,680 and wanted to set up a climb to Boundary Peak. 83 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:51,720 Boundary Peak is the highest mountain in Nevada at over 84 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,800 13,000 feet. It is located in the White 85 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:58,720 Mountains east of Bishop, CA. One of my room mates is a loan 86 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:02,480 executive for a bank in Idaho and the other is a farmer. 87 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,960 We left Boundary Peak trailhead on the last Saturday morning of 88 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:12,240 July 2004 around 6:00 AM. Around 2:00 PM, we were several 89 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,080 100 feet from the summit of Boundary Peak. 90 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,480 There were two climbers making their way down the trail toward 91 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,400 us. The last 300 feet of the climb 92 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,720 is steep with lots of obstacles and the trails very narrow. 93 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,560 We waited at our location so that the two climbers coming 94 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,880 down would have room to pass on the trail. 95 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:35,400 As we were waiting, I spotted a lone climber making his way 96 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:39,320 across the Rimrock Trail between Montgomery Peak and Boundary 97 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,840 Peak. He caught my attention because 98 00:05:41,840 --> 00:05:44,920 he kicked a rock off the West side slope of the sheer Rock 99 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,680 Cliff. When the two climbers reached 100 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:52,080 our location, I observed something moving S about 300 101 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:56,640 feet from us in a large bowl. The movement was too fast to be 102 00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:00,880 another climber because the area that it was in was full of small 103 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,800 shale rock. This rock is extremely hard to 104 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:07,560 walk in and keep your balance on the steep mountainside. 105 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:11,920 There were also several large boulders in with the shell rock 106 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,840 where the where the trail was that this climber was using. 107 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,680 When I first observed this subject, I said out loud, look 108 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:24,440 at that guy go he's wearing a funny hairy climbing suit. 109 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,880 My first thought was that he was some expert climber wearing a 110 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:33,240 modern high tech climbing suit. All five of us looked at what I 111 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,960 just pointed out and there was a dead calm silence among us. 112 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,040 We all sat there for about two minutes and watched as this 113 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,120 creature made its way to the trees below us. 114 00:06:42,840 --> 00:06:45,680 While I was watching it, I made the listed observation. 115 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:50,560 The creature would run on two legs upright until it came up on 116 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:54,680 a large boulder and then it would crawl over it on all four 117 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:58,000 legs and run for a while on all four legs. 118 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:02,280 After a short distance, it would stand back up on two legs and 119 00:07:02,280 --> 00:07:05,160 run until it came up to another obstacle. 120 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,960 The creature was between 5 feet and five and a half feet tall. 121 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:11,760 Its arms hung down to almost its knees. 122 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:16,200 The head area appeared to have a long hair around the face and 123 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,720 head. It appeared to be light brown 124 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:22,080 and collar with dark hair around the head and groin area. 125 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:26,120 Once it reached an area of heavy vegetation, we lost sight of it. 126 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:30,040 It took over 60 seconds to reach the vegetation from the 1st 127 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:33,640 place that we observed it. I asked the other climbers if 128 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,640 they knew what it was that we just saw. 129 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,400 They did not say anything. My first thought was that it 130 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:42,680 looked like an orangutan. I told this to one of my friends 131 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:46,680 and they replied, yeah, maybe it escaped from captivity. 132 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:51,040 But everyone, everyone left it at that and we all started back 133 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,960 up the mountain while the other climbers made their way down. 134 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:58,920 Before the other climbers left, I asked them where they were 135 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,360 from and they said Southern California. 136 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:04,560 As we were going back up, I spotted the other lone climber 137 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:06,240 crossing the divide between the peaks. 138 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,960 He was about a half a mile South of Boundary Peak. 139 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,840 I thought to myself that this climber might have scared the 140 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:15,640 creature from his hiding place when he knocked a rock off the 141 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,240 Cliff. Once we were on the peak, the 142 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:21,440 lone climber met up with us. He was an Asian male. 143 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:24,840 I asked him if he saw anything down the South slope of the 144 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:28,600 divide that he just came across. He said he didn't see anything. 145 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,160 All three of us in our climbing party had cameras. 146 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,799 They were all in our backpacks. When we observed the creature, I 147 00:08:34,799 --> 00:08:37,520 initially thought of trying to take my gloves off and taking 148 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:39,000 off my pack to get my camera out. 149 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:42,360 I realized that my camera did not have a zoom on it and that a 150 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:46,240 regular 35mm would only show a dark spot at a distance of over 151 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:49,560 300 yards. When I returned home, I told a 152 00:08:49,560 --> 00:08:52,600 couple of my close friends about the creature that I saw. 153 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:56,640 I did not want a lot of people to know about what I saw because 154 00:08:56,680 --> 00:09:00,120 I did not want them to think that I was losing it. 155 00:09:00,680 --> 00:09:05,960 In February of 2007, I bought 10 acres of land about 5 miles from 156 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:07,800 the area that I saw the creature. 157 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:11,400 I did not know it at the time, but this is where I'm going to 158 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:14,000 retire. I was talking to one of the 159 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:17,600 local residents and I told them about what I saw up in the 160 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,040 mountain. They did not seem surprised and 161 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,360 told me about a local prospector who saw something in the forest 162 00:09:23,560 --> 00:09:25,920 that secured him to the point that he does not want to talk 163 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:29,080 about it ever again. Under also notices said no, we 164 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:32,560 did not go down to the area where it was observed because of 165 00:09:32,560 --> 00:09:36,360 the climbing conditions. Other witnesses Four other 166 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:39,760 witnesses, two were climbing friends of mine and two others 167 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:43,240 were from South Carolina. The two climbers from South 168 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,840 Carolina were coming down the trail toward us toward the three 169 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,440 of us. When we all met on the trail is 170 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:52,520 when I observed the thing. All five of us saw the creature 171 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:56,080 for about a minute or two. Other stories one of the local 172 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,280 residents told me about a miner had mentioned that he saw 173 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:01,720 something in the forest that scared him so badly that he does 174 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,760 not want to talk about it. Time and conditions 2:00 PM. 175 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,440 Weather conditions, clear and warm environment. 176 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:11,040 Shell rock, sagebrush, juniper and other small trees and 177 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,760 shrubs. Then it says follow up 178 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,720 investigation reported by VFR investigator Richard Huckleberg. 179 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,320 I made contact with his witness, a Reno Police officer, on the 180 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:24,960 afternoon December 21st, 2007. We went over his report. 181 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:29,040 He couldn't add much more to what he and his friends saw on a 182 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,200 boundary on Boundary Peak Mountain. 183 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,480 He has bought property close to where this all took place, but a 184 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:35,600 little further down the mountain. 185 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,960 The reason he mentioned the property is because something 186 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:42,400 unusual happened there long after the sighting described 187 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:45,800 above, which may be connected. After he cleared a pad for his 188 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:50,760 5th weed or camper on his 10 acre parcel, he and his dog were 189 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:54,760 burning off the brush and weeds the following night and had a 190 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:58,920 pretty good sized fire going. His dog started to look out into 191 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,800 the darkness and begin to bark and growl at something. 192 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:06,360 He only had a strong spotlight to look around with but he 193 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,360 didn't see anything. He was a non believer about the 194 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:11,320 Sasquatch phenomena before the sighting. 195 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,920 He is now a 100 percenter and he is going to do more 196 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,880 investigating in and around his new property. 197 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:22,040 As mentioned in his report, there were two friends with the 198 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:25,000 witness as they were hiking. Climbing up toward Boundary 199 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,360 Peak. They spotted the figure as the 200 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:31,120 group stopped and were waiting for two other climbers that were 201 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:35,360 on their way down the trail. The trail was narrow at this 202 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,680 point. As the two groups were passing 203 00:11:37,680 --> 00:11:41,200 on the trail, this creature decided to start moving across 204 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:45,520 the mountainous bowl area. According to the witness, all 205 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:48,760 five of the mountain climbers observed this movement. 206 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,280 As mentioned in his report, there were two friends with the 207 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,840 witness as they were hiking, climbing up toward Boundary 208 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:56,920 Peak. They spotted the figure as the 209 00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:58,880 group stopped. And we're waiting for two other 210 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:00,760 climbers that were on their way down the trail. 211 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:02,680 The trail was narrow at this point. 212 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:05,640 As the two groups were passing on the trail, this creature 213 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,640 decided to start moving across the mountainous bull area. 214 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,040 According to the witness, all five of the mountain climbers 215 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:15,240 observed this movement. The witness said that he first 216 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:19,360 saw the figure about 200 yards below them and about 300 yards 217 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:21,960 out in front of their positions on the trail. 218 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:25,440 They were somewhere above the 1200 foot level on the mountain. 219 00:12:25,680 --> 00:12:28,560 He thought he first heard a rock falling, which might have 220 00:12:28,560 --> 00:12:32,480 startled this figure because it began to move in the opposite 221 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:35,040 direction from the climber who dislodged the rock. 222 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,760 That climber was on his way down, but he was even higher up 223 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,760 on the mountain trail then the witness and his friends. 224 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,760 The witness was very impressed by how fast this creature was 225 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:49,800 moving in this loose shell that was on the surface of this very 226 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,720 steep slope that was part of a large bull area. 227 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,800 If this had been a human, it would have taken one step 228 00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:00,120 forward and two steps back. Total viewing time was 229 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:04,320 approximately 2 minutes or less, but before it disappeared into 230 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,760 the vegetation on the other side of the of the large bowl area. 231 00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:11,720 When this figure came to some larger boulders or rocks that 232 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:14,720 were in its path, it went down on all fours and climbed up and 233 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,800 over these boulders and then continued on on all fours for a 234 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,280 short distance. Then it went back up on two 235 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:22,480 legs, still moving relatively fast. 236 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:26,040 The witness thinks the figure didn't even see his group of 237 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,520 hikers. The figure had long hair on the 238 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:30,920 head. The figure had longer hair on 239 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:32,320 the head than the rest of the body. 240 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:35,040 It was also darker hair on the head. 241 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:38,560 The rest of the body hair was light brown except for the 242 00:13:38,560 --> 00:13:41,000 crotch area, which was darker than the body hair. 243 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:45,400 The witness could not tell if the area was male or female, nor 244 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,720 estimated sight. It was too far away, he thought. 245 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,920 His arms appeared to be longer than an average human's arms. 246 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:56,360 The witness has haunted and taken bear in Idaho and Montana. 247 00:13:56,760 --> 00:14:00,960 He knows what bears look like and what they can and cannot do 248 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,680 on their hind feet. He was certain it was not a 249 00:14:03,680 --> 00:14:07,160 bear. He first became aware of BFRO 250 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:09,840 because of the recent Pennsylvania Trail camp photo. 251 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:14,800 He said this also is no bear, and he's right. 252 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,280 Then the investigator says I used to hunt deer on the 253 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,360 California side of where this took place back in the 1980s. 254 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:24,040 This mountain range has its own spatial beauty and loneliness 255 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,840 that keeps drawing you back in certain places. 256 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,080 You feel like you're on a different planet all together, 257 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,440 like the moon. There are bristlecone pine trees 258 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:34,720 in the area. One of these bristlecone pine 259 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,240 trees is the oldest known living thing on the planet. 260 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:41,080 It is 4000 plus years old. I have a picture of it. 261 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:44,360 He says at one time it was marked so people could find it 262 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:46,960 and photograph it and now the Forest Service has wisely 263 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,920 changed the trail and removed the sign to protect it. 264 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,480 There's always some idiot out there that want to damage it. 265 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:55,760 The witness is a high, credible and unbelievable. 266 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,680 It seems he saw a Sasquatch, but what was it doing at that 267 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,320 elevation? Deer cross over the mountains 268 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:04,840 using those high mountain passes, so it may have been 269 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,560 following their path. And he's got a picture of this 270 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:09,520 area. Man, totally desolate. 271 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:11,320 Makes you wonder how they think he'd even live there. 272 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:13,080 It says. I spoke with one of the 273 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:16,400 witnesses friends by phone on January 10th, 2008. 274 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,840 One of the friends who was with him when the incident happened, 275 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:23,600 he confirmed the story but he couldn't say just what it was. 276 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,720 He said it was covered with hair and was moving very fast and 277 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:28,840 loose shell headed down and away from them. 278 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:32,240 He saw it moving for a little over 100 yards. 279 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:35,640 The following photos were taken about 20 years ago. 280 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,840 It says by me a few miles South of Boundary Peak Mountain. 281 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:42,160 Most of the high peaks in this mountain range are on the 282 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:45,680 California side, but some are over 14,000 feet. 283 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:50,400 Montgomery Peak is over 13,400 feet and lies just on the 284 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,400 California side of the Boundary Peak Mountain. 285 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:56,200 These two mountain peaks are connected by a high Ridge saddle 286 00:15:56,360 --> 00:16:00,040 that intersects the state line. The first photo says looks north 287 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,840 and was taken from a 12,000 hundred 500 foot Ridge. 288 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:07,600 Man, amazing area here. I mean beautiful, desolate. 289 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,600 I mean you got some of these pine trees, very kind of almost 290 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:14,240 short scurry pine trees. Somehow these Bigfoot seem to be 291 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:16,440 able to find a way to live in this environment. 292 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:18,880 Very, very strange story. Let's take a look at the next 293 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,480 one here. This one here is dated September 294 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,080 of 1984. Been a little while. 295 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:27,200 It says middle of the month Douglas County, Nevada and 296 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:30,640 location details. Go to the town of Genoa, drive 297 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:35,640 north on Foothill Rd. turn left on Centennial, pass the 298 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,520 cemetery. The road ends up behind some 299 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:42,920 residential homes, but where the road ends the land belongs to 300 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:46,520 the Forestry BLM and is the start of the trailhead. 301 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:49,840 It is a tough hike but eventually you will come to the 302 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:52,000 remaining foundation of the deer hunters cabin. 303 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:56,560 It was in this vicinity where we met this large, hairy, smelly 304 00:16:56,560 --> 00:17:01,720 guy near the Creek going uphill. The Creek will be on your left. 305 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,000 Nearest town. Genoa, Nevada. 306 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:07,640 Nearest Rd. Centennial Rd. 307 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:12,359 Observed in September of 1984. My friend and I were hiking on 308 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:15,680 the east side of the Sierra Nevada mountain range above Lake 309 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:19,560 Tahoe and the Carson Valley above the town of Genoa. 310 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:24,119 Both of us grew up in this area, although in high school I was 311 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,240 kind of a cut up. My friend Linda graduated 312 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,800 valedictorian of our classified years later. 313 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,280 She is very logical. We have often hiked this trail 314 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:36,840 that basically goes straight up the mountain and over to Tahoe. 315 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:40,440 It is a strenuous hike. When we parked our truck at the 316 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:43,120 trailhead, there was another car parked there as well. 317 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:48,160 We were 1/4 the way up the trail when 2 teenage boys came running 318 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:51,400 down the mountain toward us. The trail was extremely steep 319 00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:53,360 and they were running for all they were worth. 320 00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,920 They stopped long enough to implore us not to go any further 321 00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:00,000 up the mountain as they had seen a monster or something. 322 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,800 There was an old deer Hunter's cabin at about the halfway point 323 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:07,080 and we told the boys that we were only going that far. 324 00:18:07,360 --> 00:18:10,160 We thought they were drinking or on drugs. 325 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:13,520 We shrugged off the incident, laughed and joked that we wished 326 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:17,080 we had what they were smoking. We reached the cabin without 327 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:19,560 incidents. Sit down on the bluff that 328 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:23,480 overlooked the Carson Valley. We split a soda that we had 329 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:27,480 brought and I took out my recorder, a flute like 330 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:30,160 instrument, and began playing some little tunes on it. 331 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,720 We were alone on the mountain, we thought. 332 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:37,640 After about an hour of putting around, we decided to head back 333 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,840 down the trail. I kept smelling dog dew or 334 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,080 something dead. I even checked my shoes. 335 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:47,040 We were near the Creek gathering pine cones for an art project. 336 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:50,960 I was facing downhill, Linda was facing uphill. 337 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:55,120 We were examining a particularly perfect cone when Linda looked 338 00:18:55,120 --> 00:18:58,160 up and exclaimed. Oh my, it's a bear. 339 00:18:58,360 --> 00:19:01,600 No, it's a guy in a bear suit. I looked up and couldn't believe 340 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,560 it. We were a stone's toss from a 7 341 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:08,040 foot hairy dude. He looked directly at us and to 342 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:11,360 this day Linda and I felt something pass between the three 343 00:19:11,360 --> 00:19:13,520 of us. He stood across the Creek from 344 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:15,880 us. His hair was the collar of dry 345 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:19,320 pine needles and covered his whole body with the hair 346 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,600 thinning just on his chest and face. 347 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:25,680 He had a large broad chest, but not breast like a female. 348 00:19:26,120 --> 00:19:30,440 His arms were hanging at his sides nearly to his knees and 349 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:34,360 when he walked he took long strides and his arms swung 350 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:37,640 freely as he walked. He didn't seem to fear us, 351 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,480 although he began to walk straight up a pine needle 352 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:43,680 covered slope, barefooted without slipping. 353 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:47,960 As he moved away, Linda grabbed my arm and began dragging me 354 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:50,920 down the hill. I couldn't take my eyes off him 355 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,360 and he never took his eyes off us. 356 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:57,920 I do not feel to this day as he meant to harm us, but instead I 357 00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:01,200 feel he was just as fascinated with us as we were with him. 358 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:05,800 His face seemed almost serene with very intelligent eyes. 359 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:10,800 His face resembled an orangutan. He had large eyes and a flattish 360 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,160 nose. I sketched a picture as soon as 361 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:16,280 I got home and Linda confirmed that I had captured his 362 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,240 likeness. I wish I had a camera on me that 363 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,800 day. As we continue at a fast pace 364 00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:25,560 down the hill, he remained on the Ridge above us, paralleling 365 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:31,000 in the same direction. We reached our truck and could 366 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:34,080 still see him crouching on a granite boulder at least a 367 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:36,000 football field distance between us. 368 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:39,760 I yelled up to him that he was very cool, but he shouldn't be 369 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:41,720 scaring the crap out of us locals. 370 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:45,920 He stood up on his boulder and Linda told me to shut up and get 371 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,920 in the truck. We were strangely disturbed that 372 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:52,320 afternoon and evening. We thought of going to the 373 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,840 Forest Service or the Sheriff's Department, but who would have 374 00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:58,920 believed us? Plus, in our community, they 375 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:02,320 would just want to shoot him. We have since hiked there many 376 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:05,240 times, always hoping to catch another glimpse. 377 00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:09,640 We are married ladies with kids and we take the kids up Bigfoot 378 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:12,960 Canyon periodically in search of our elusive friend. 379 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:18,320 A few years ago the wind blew down some trees during a storm 380 00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:22,240 and exposed an area that we had not seen from the trail before. 381 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:26,480 When we went up to investigate, we found a large boulder and 382 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,520 some older pine trees with branches low to the ground 383 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,080 around it. You could duck down and go under 384 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:35,160 the trees near the wall of the boulder and it looked as if 385 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:38,520 something or someone had made a natural shelter there. 386 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:42,760 The pine needles had all been tramped down and it seemed to be 387 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:47,840 away from the prevailing winds. A great place for deer bearer or 388 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,040 perhaps a Bigfoot. We hope so. 389 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,800 I will never look at life on this earth the same way I have 390 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,760 seen Bigfoot, and not only does it make for a great tale or on 391 00:21:56,760 --> 00:22:00,920 the campfire at night, it fuels my imagination about every 392 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:03,760 little sound I hear when I am in the wilderness. 393 00:22:04,120 --> 00:22:06,960 I am intrigued. I only hope that no harm comes 394 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:10,160 to the Bigfoot. I believe that the great creator 395 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,800 of all life shares the sight of the Bigfoot with the people who 396 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:16,640 might grow from the experience. I know Linda and I have both 397 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:18,880 grown. Even if we share the experience 398 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:21,880 with someone who doesn't believe us, it really does not matter. 399 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:25,160 We know what we saw. He was so close in proximity. 400 00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:28,240 It was obvious to us that this fellow belong there. 401 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,960 He was as natural as the sky Creek trees and the deer. 402 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:36,280 Also notice it says no, except he appeared to be studying us. 403 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:39,680 Myself, my best friend and whoever the two young boys were, 404 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:41,400 were the witnesses. Other stories, Yes. 405 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:46,040 I spoke with an Australian mountain biker who had a strange 406 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:49,440 experience five years ago directly on the other side of 407 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:53,200 the mountain on the Tahoe side. He said he was riding his bike 408 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:54,880 and exercising his German Shepherd. 409 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:56,960 He said he kept smelling something dead. 410 00:22:57,280 --> 00:22:59,160 He said his dog was running ahead of him. 411 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:02,640 Suddenly he said his dog yelped and turned around without 412 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,600 waiting for him and ran back down the mountain. 413 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:09,640 This man said that he never did see anything, but he felt there 414 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:13,040 was someone watching him and he said he felt the hair on the 415 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:14,600 back of his neck and arms prickle. 416 00:23:15,120 --> 00:23:18,440 He thought maybe it was a bear, but the smell kept coming back 417 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:21,280 to him. This story was shared with me 418 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:24,800 before I had told him my own and then it's this time of 419 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:26,920 condition. That was a beautiful day, clear 420 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:31,000 but a little bit a little bit of a bite in the air. 2:00 PM 421 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:35,400 environment, Ponderosa Pines and cedar near the foundation of an 422 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:39,200 old deer hunters can't cabin and a trickle of a Creek. 423 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:42,680 Follow up investigation report says following the investigators 424 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:45,400 review with the witness, the following information can be 425 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,880 added to this report. Just prior to the encounter the 426 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,400 witness reports having the sense of being watched. 427 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:55,320 The witness reports the hairy man as she called him had 428 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:58,800 possibly been nearby for some time without them noticing as he 429 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:01,840 was very close. When they did notice him, the 430 00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:06,000 witness reported that he raised his nose to the sky and was hurt 431 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:11,160 to take a sniff, followed by a very loud deep huff which must 432 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:15,120 resemble a snort from a very large bowl which she was 433 00:24:15,120 --> 00:24:18,600 accustomed to hearing. The witness reported he then 434 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:23,640 turned and ran off uphill in a very fluid and graceful yet 435 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:27,080 powerful and agile fashion. He ran up a very steep hill 436 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:29,400 covered with thick pine needles without missing a step or 437 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,480 slipping at all. He was reported to have run 438 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:37,040 uphill in a hunched over position, but he used his hands 439 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:39,880 for swatting objects out of the way rather than for a 440 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,080 locomotion, the witness reported. 441 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:45,160 He followed them down the hill, standing off to the side and 442 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:48,840 uphill from them. The hike backed down to their 443 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:53,600 truck took approximately 1 hour. Upon arriving at the truck, the 444 00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:57,080 witness took a rest break and sat on the hood of the truck 445 00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:00,600 while the Harriet man stayed on the Ridge above them and 446 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:03,880 appeared to be observing them. As they began to leave, the 447 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:07,400 witness shouted to him which may have caused him to rise from his 448 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:10,000 cross position and stand upright. 449 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:13,560 The witness had several observations. 450 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:17,320 Physical features to report as working from the top down they 451 00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:19,480 are. The head was very large, 452 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:25,080 prominent brow Ridge, face flat, really complexion, nose flat and 453 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:28,920 wide. Estimated size 7 feet tall and 454 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:32,280 360 lbs. Shoulders and chest were very 455 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:35,240 wide and muscular, Abdomen very firm. 456 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:39,480 Says the definition of the muscles was quite visible. 457 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:44,000 Hair was varying length. Hands observed were described as 458 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:45,880 huge. The feet were described as 459 00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:48,680 gigantic. The exposed skin collar was 460 00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:52,320 described as being much the same as its collar, dirt giving a 461 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:56,120 very dirty appearance to it. The witness reports having been 462 00:25:56,120 --> 00:25:59,200 in the same area many times since then, yet she has had no 463 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,960 further encounters. The witness also submitted a 464 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,360 sketch done shortly after her encounter. 465 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:08,160 She feels fairly depicts what she saw that day. 466 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:10,760 Yeah, she's got a pretty good drawing of this Bigfoot here. 467 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,080 Wow. This last sighting that we're 468 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:18,960 looking at is dated September 15th, 1980, says Story County, 469 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:20,440 Nevada. Location details. 470 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:24,360 Take Hwy. 50 E out of Carson. Turn left on 431 through Silver 471 00:26:24,360 --> 00:26:28,520 City just before you get to Gold Hill there is a drive to the 472 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:33,080 left across from New York. Mine sighting was an old mill 473 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:37,240 site at American Flats in ravine just S the ruins of the old 474 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:38,800 mill. I believe this is all part of 475 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:41,200 the mining operation they had going on there. 476 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:45,040 Nearest town Gold Hill, Nevada, American Flats, nearest road 477 00:26:45,120 --> 00:26:48,640 341. I was a reserve duty sheriff for 478 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,760 Story County Sheriff's Office. I was employed by the Houston 479 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:54,560 International Minerals Corporation at Gold Hill as 480 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:56,280 their on site security supervisor. 481 00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:59,560 I had worked the day shift. I had to rent some kids out of 482 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:06,000 the old mill. At around 3:30 PM on 9/15/1980 I 483 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:09,080 was showing my swing shift officer the area I'd rent the 484 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:11,480 kids off from. We were in the security vehicle 485 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:14,840 parked on the high side of the South side of the old mill. 486 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:18,720 Gold mining. We saw that the boys, four of 487 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:22,080 them, were running back down the ravine to the Creek below. 488 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:26,600 It was 4:15 PM. As the boys reached the Creek, 489 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:29,960 they must have scared a group of girls at the Creek bottom 490 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:33,240 because they started screaming. There was a lot of noise being 491 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:36,440 made by both the girls and the boys laughing and yelling. 492 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:41,040 At first I thought they were. They had scared a deer West of 493 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:44,800 them near the rock outcrops. Then I thought, no, it's too big 494 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:46,920 to be a deer. I could see it moving among the 495 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:51,280 trees heading up the other side of the ravine at a very fast 496 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:53,120 pace. I thought it must be a lone 497 00:27:53,120 --> 00:27:55,520 Mustang. As I watched, my security 498 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:58,080 officer got the binoculars from the seat and said Oh my. 499 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:01,000 I looked closer and realized it was not a Mustang. 500 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:06,440 I was looking at a large graying brown man shaped thing about 10 501 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:09,960 plus feet tall. It was obviously male because of 502 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,040 its build. As it cleared the trees near the 503 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:13,760 top of the hill I could clearly see it. 504 00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:17,000 It was covered with hair from head to toe, graying like a 505 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:20,600 person in their 50s. It was at least three feet at 506 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:22,920 the shoulders. At the Crest of the hill it 507 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:24,640 turned to look back down the ravine. 508 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:27,640 It was maybe 100 yards across the ravine. 509 00:28:28,360 --> 00:28:30,360 I had an unobstructed view at this point. 510 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:34,320 It stood on the hilltop maybe a minute looking back down the 511 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:37,640 hill, then turned and moved over the other side of the hill out 512 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:39,680 of you. We drove over to where we had 513 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:42,920 seen the thing last, about a two mile drive on dirt roads. 514 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:49,120 It was about 4:50 PM by then and we saw no further sign of it but 515 00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:52,440 was able but were able to establish that the thing was 516 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:56,240 standing next to a tree that was 11 feet tall under. 517 00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:59,520 Also notice it says the noise of little kids down lower on the 518 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:01,360 Creek. Happy sounds not fear, screaming 519 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:04,440 and yelling. Other witness myself and my 520 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:07,000 swing shift. Swing shift security officer 521 00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:11,040 that says other stories none time and location. 415 broad 522 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:14,600 daylight, clear skies, warm almost hot environment. 523 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:18,720 The area is high desert across the ravine, 60 feet deep with a 524 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:22,280 rock outcrop on the other side with the Creek in the bottom of 525 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:24,800 the ravine. There are Cottonwood trees and 526 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,520 willows in the bottom of the ravine and pine trees on both 527 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:31,280 sides of the ravine. This opens up into a flat as you 528 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,440 move West. The siding was just South of the 529 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:37,600 old American Flats mill site, below the mill site and mill 530 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:40,160 pond. Follow up investigation says. 531 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:42,920 I talked with the witness by phone and the following details 532 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:46,400 can be added to the report. He remembers the date so well 533 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:48,840 because it happened just two months after he started work. 534 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:52,200 He remembers the time so well because the swing shift had just 535 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:55,040 started out. He was showing the swing shift 536 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:58,040 officer around. The area is filled with caves, 537 00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:01,600 mines, tunnels and the like. Believed the creature to be male 538 00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:03,240 due to the size and body structure. 539 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:05,560 There was a dark patch in the groin area. 540 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:10,280 Estimated the weight of the creature to be between 501,000 541 00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:12,880 lbs. It's enormous creature seemed 542 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:15,760 familiar with the drain based on how it moved up the hill. 543 00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:19,240 The creature seemed unconcerned with the kids and that was what 544 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:22,640 the creature turned to look at. No sounds from the creature were 545 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:24,840 heard. Witness worked there for a year 546 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,560 and nothing further happened nor were there any other stories 547 00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:29,760 from the area. Known animals in the area 548 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:34,600 include deer and Mustang. Well, Nevada doesn't have quite 549 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:37,320 as many sightings as some states, but I'll tell you the 550 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:40,520 Bigfoot sightings that they do have seem to be up close and 551 00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:42,920 personal. Until next time, this is UFO 552 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:43,960 warning over and out.
