Joe was a German shepherd that my grandfather was trying to train to be a hunter, but he was too wild at times and would often tear after the prey before my grandfather gave the ok, and would ignore being called back. That all changed one night, however.
It was a damp and bitter November night around 1972. My grandfather was hunting deer late into the evening and he had brought Joe and his other dog, Sampson, along. They were deep into a pine wood when Sampson began whining and cowering. My grandfather noticed this strange behavior, but Joe seemed fine, so they continued on.
About five minutes later, a putrid stench seemed to fill the air. He described it as like human waste, a rotting carcass, and garbage all rolled into one. That’s when Joe began to react. He flattened back his ears and growled at something back in the darkness. Sampson, too, began to growl.
My grandfather had his spotlight with him and he shined it in the direction the dogs were barking. The next thing he saw gave him the chills. Two gleaming red eyes reflected back at him from an enormous black shadow about 40 yards away. He recalled the shadow being at least 8 feet tall. And he was certain that whatever this beast was, it was what was giving off the horrible odor.
My grandfather immediately grabbed hold of Sampson’s collar, but he wasn’t quick enough to grab Joe’s and the dog tore after the creature. The beast backed away slowly and retreated into the blackness, seemingly unalarmed. Fearful for Joe’s safety, my grandfather strained his ears. He listened to Joe’s barks and howls for some time when they began to fade and my grandfather turned to leave. He feared the worst, but did not want to be in those creepy woods with a strange creature on the loose anymore.
When he arrived home, he told the family what happened with Joe and the creature. Although he thought it a crazy story, with his family’s urges, he made a report about the creature to the police.
The next day, they were in for a shock when his son, Paul (my uncle), came home carrying Joe in his arms. He said he saw Joe on the side of the road when he was driving into town. He thought Joe was dead at first, since he was just lying there, but he wasn’t, just very, very frightened. Joe continued to cower and walk around with his tail between his legs, fearful of everything and anything.
The family was stumped. What kind of creature could possibly scare a youthful and hyperactive young dog to the point in which it was terrified of everything? In relation to this, apparently my grandfather wasn’t the only witness to this creature. Nine other reports were made to the police about it.
I would like to tell you something about where I grew up in Northern Oklahoma on a farm in the 1960s and ’70s. The location is somewhere west of Interstate I-35 in the northernmost part of Oklahoma. It was a very wooded area.
My uncle, who had lived in the area all his life, told a story about how when he was about eight or ten years old, he was going out to the outhouse one cold winter night (they didn’t have indoor plumbing in the old house yet) and said that as he tried to open the outhouse door, there was something inside it, preventing it from opening. My uncle said he was sleepy and cold and just wanted to do his business and be done with it and get back into the warm house, so he pushed his way into the outhouse with a bit of force. He was suddenly confronted by running right into a huge, stinking, hairy creature.
He first told me this story before I was aware of Bigfoot, and I don’t think he was ever aware of such things. I don’t recall the Patterson footage being general knowledge around there at the time, and I was curious about all things weird and wonderful and read up on the paranormal as often as I could.
Anyway, what he described back then now today seems like a pretty average description of a Bigfoot creature. He said he just bumbled face-first right into this wall of stinking fur (said it “smelled like a dead pig”) in the mostly dark outhouse and not knowing what was going on (there aren’t any bears around there) he looked up and saw a huge wide-eyed “monster face” staring back at him. My uncle let out a terrified scream (as you naturally would, being a kid in such circumstances) and said that the “thing” screamed back at him at the same time, seemingly equally frightened, and then it shoved him out of the way onto the ground and stepped over him and started running away across a nearby pig pen toward the woods and the river beyond.
My uncle says he was sat there on his butt on the ground screaming in fear and watching this big ape-like thing running away. It was a sort of comedy story when you envision a little kid and a Bigfoot frightening the bejesus out of each other in an outhouse, and I always loved that story and sometimes asked my uncle to tell it again because he’d be so animated when he did.
He said he ran back into the house screaming about “monsters” and woke everybody up. My grandmother confirmed this with a grin when she was still alive, and the whole family remembered the incident well. My uncle absolutely swore this was a true story, and years later, after learning about Bigfoot, it gave the story more credence to me. My uncle died many years ago, but his wonderful comic/horror story is still fresh in my mind because of the way he told it with wide eyes and an excited voice, even when he was an adult, and his absolute insistence that it was true.
Some years later, I had two Bigfoot encounters myself near there, but I won’t go into that here, as this is getting a bit long, but I will tell you of them at another time.
In mid July 2004 I was on my back porch it faces east and it faces a mountain I live in the woods on the side of my house where the creature was the house is scarcely wooded and the land is flat. The sun was shining. The reason I went out side is this, my dogs started to bark and run through the house they got half way through the dog door stopped an whined. I thought that was odd so I went and sat on the back porch. Then I saw the tree to my left move and the tree was about 300 yards away from me or less I am bad with measurements. So I watched the tree to see what caught my eye and then I saw the creature. It was behind the tree looking out from behind it. It’s head was in the branches and it was hunching. It’s head was large and it had a definite brow I thought I was seeing an orangutang. Except it was about 6 and a half feet tall. It was moving it’s head around the tree to watch me as I stood up to get a better look. It’s hair was a rust color like to color of dead pine needles, It’s eyes were haunting. And it was completely silent. It was watching me while I was watching it. I sat back down. I watched outside for about 6 minutes and didn’t tell the person on the phone.
Then I went in the house and watched through the window to make sure it wasn’t a trick of shadow. Then the creature moved in front of the tree, staying hunched over but watching me in the window. I watched a few more minutes and then went to the back of the house when I went back it was gone. While this was going on my kids were in the front yard playing in the water. I think if the creature had been aggressive it would have made some sort of move but it did seem peaceful. It seemed to be curious I think it was young to be in such a vulnerable open area.
When my husband came home we went out to the tree and all of the knapweed was completely trampled down around the tree. We didn’t find any hair though. I have never seen the creature again.
Discussion by David Paulides on missing people
PORT ANGELES, Wash. (AP) – Teams in Olympic National Park have expanded their search for a missing 60-year-old hiker.
Park spokeswoman Jacilee Wray says nearly two dozen people on Saturday finished a grid search around the area where Jim Griffin’s pack was found.
On Sunday, seven searchers are going further out from the trail near creeks and down steep slopes. Wray says searchers are looking in places where Griffin may have ended up if he got confused or lost during his hike.
Griffin hasn’t been seen since he went for a hike Monday on the Olympic Hot Springs Trail. His friends reported him missing Wednesday night after he failed to show up at a Christmas Eve dinner.
Monsters Underground host, Bill Brock has been in hot pursuit of a report out of Turner Maine. What Brock didn’t expect was to see when he got to the property was actual footage of something walking around a property. While the footage is not as clear as we would like, it’s obvious that the subject in the footage is a biped. In one cellphone video, the witness captured what appears to be a bipedal creature lurking in the trees. Watch the video for Bill’s reaction and the sincerity of the witness.
After several weeks where dogs went missing, trash bins ransacked, and other strange happenings in Kabetogama, John Simon declared that the township had been invaded by a Sasquatch. As evidence he produced several plaster casts of large apelike foot impressions, a tangle of brownish yellow hair, and photographs of powerful claw marks.
When Simon packed up enough camping supplies to last him several months, announced he was off to track the Sasquatch, no one paid much attention either. Simon was gone over six months before his friends and relations started to worry. A search party was organized. They scoured the State Forest for months. The State Police even got involved for a few weeks, organizing hundreds of volunteers but no trace was ever found of John Simon but people did notice the strange doings stopped just after he left to hunt the Bigfoot.
Happy New Year Guys and Gals!
Don and Barb [not their real names] spend the holidays every year visiting both of their parents in the St. Louis area, where they were born, grew up, met and married. For the last six years the couple has lived in rural Jasper County Missouri and normally leaves on the morning of Christmas Eve to make the four-hour drive. This year, however, they decided to make the trip the evening of the 23rd, hoping to avoid the worst of the holiday traffic.
At approximately 7:05 p.m. they were eastbound on I-44 and had passed the Phillipsburg exit in Laclede County by about three or four miles when they both saw large dark humanoid figure striding out into their lane from the right-hand shoulder, less than 100 feet ahead of their vehicle. As it was illuminated by their headlights they immediately knew what they were seeing. “It was a Bigfoot, no question about it,” Don told me during a telephone conversation less than three hours after their encounter. (When they reached their destination he immediately used the internet to look up my number and placed the call. “It wasn’t a small one, either. He was every bit of seven foot tall and was stocky enough to play pro football with any team in the league. I don’t know if it was a male or a female, but if they are like humans I would have to guess it was a male due to its size. In some ways it reminded me of the one in the old black and white film from out in California; it had that same arm swing action going and turned its head to glance at us without breaking its stride. It was like he judged the distance and our speed, decided we were not a threat, and lost interest. He was only walking at a moderate pace, but with the long strides he was covering some serious ground rather quickly. He crossed both eastbound lanes, the median, and we could still see him as he went across the other side of the freeway in the headlights of a pickup driving east. I know the driver saw it, because the brake lights came on and the truck came to a very sudden stop. So with the three of us (their eight-year old son was with them and saw the creature as well) that makes at least four witnesses, and maybe more. The traffic was pretty light on that stretch at the time.”
A few questions led to additional details of the creature’s appearance. “It was covered with real dark brown hair about three to four inches long all over,” he said. “I would guess his weight to be in the neighborhood of four hundred pounds and maybe more. The classic features that I have read about over the years were all there; the kind of pointy head, little or no neck, and less hair on the face than the rest of its body. The face looked much more like a human than an ape, although it did have a noticeable brow ridge and a broad nose. I didn’t see any eye shine when it turned its head to look at us, like deer and other animals have at night.
Don also said that the encounter was something that he had hoped for, but never expected to happen. “My brother lived out in Oregon for a while and saw one up close about eight years ago. He was all excited when he told me about it and I started reading up on them on the internet. I had read there and in your columns about the sightings in southwest Missouri in recent months, and believe me I have kept my eyes peeled whenever I was driving in a rural area, especially at night. Then here we are, driving down the Interstate with Christmas dinner and visiting with our family on our minds, and one just walks out in plain sight in front of us.”
The area where this encounter took place would have to be considered excellent territory for one of these reclusive yet inquisitive creatures to make it’s home and stake out it’s territory. There are many large tracts of forest nearby, including the virtual wilderness of Fort Leonard Wood just a few miles away to the southeast. There have been numerous sightings over the years in that part of the state, including multiple encounters on the military installation’s grounds.

Me and my family had moved to the Montgomery County area in October of 2001.In December I had noticed a old logging road leading into the Sam Houston National Forest from the sub-division which was still under development at the time.I haven’t hiked since I was a teenager so I decided to see where this road went when weather permitted.In April 2002 I had taken some vacation time from work and one afternoon after mowing I thought I would go for a walk a routine I continued for several days going further down the road and deeper into the woods with each trek.I had seen evidence of deer, hog, squirrel and even bear in the area. On the sixth day I walked by an area that had springs on both sides of the trail which alternated sides every so often. I noticed on this trip there was no animal sounds or activity and I felt watched. So I stopped and surveyed my surroundings and to the east of me about 25yds in the thick underbrush something quite robust in size and dark in color seemed to be crouched between a couple of trees looking in my direction. I thought it was a large hog or maybe a bear so I turned south heading toward home and this creature moved along with me keeping a distance of approximately 15-30yds between us at all times. We continued this kind of cat and mouse routine for about 20-25 minutes. I stopped to releave myself. Then suddenly I don’t know what possessed me to turn into the woods toward this creature. It stopped and crouched very low to the ground and remained perfectly still. I had gotten into about 10 yds. and I got wind of a strange odor I can’t describe I heard a low guttural growl coming from the creature’s area. I could see it was very dark in color and almost lying in a prone position much like a sniper lining up a shot it and human like legs only very hairy I could make out thick arms and shoulders also covered with thick hair probably no more 1-2″ in length. It was down almost as if it was trying to hide it’s face. I would estimate it to be no more than 6ft.tall.The hair on my neck stood up when I heard movement of something large moving in woods from across the trail behind me. I moved quickly back onto the trail and it seemed I wasn’t being followed so I slowed my pace, by this time I was about 100-125 yards from the point I had urinated I turned and saw this dark figure walk upright out of the east woods and stop at my puddle area it squatted for a few second then stood up and looked directly at me for a few more seconds. It head turned abruptly toward the west woods and much larger dark being came slightly into view they both watched me as I back peddled watching them for another dozen or so yards when I decide home was the best place to be and ran off.
ALSO NOTICED: Over the next three years of living in that area I would often feel being watched when I was outdoors.Loud crashing sounds from the woods.Times of no animal activity at all my dogs growling fearful towards the woods.Occasional chattering and screams.Foul odors.Sticks and debris coming from the woods And even eye shine one evening about 8ft.from the ground.Neighbor at the time said she heard grunts and groans some nights and her dog would shake.
Hello, my name is Thomas G., I live in Medford, Oregon, I travel to the Applegate Region, Del Norte,Humbold regions quite often, mostly Applegate in the Red Buttes Wilderness, I had a confirmed sighting June 3, 2009, and have had strange occurrences since 07 in this area.
I’m still very emotional about with what I seen, and can describe every moment. I didn’t know what was gonna become of me, because it’s weird trying to anticipate what it was going to do, it was 50 yards are closer to me, I watched as it ducked behind some brush by a boulder on the hill, looking down upon me. 6-7 foot tall before ducking down behind brush, ovalish head, Reddish/Dark brown fur, I seen the sunlight shining off of it’s shoulders which were as big as a linebackers with full gear, amber/brown eyes, flat faced, long hair matted, and big ass eyes staring straight through me, I was crippled in fear until the adrenaline started to kick in, and I ran, and jumped down the hill which was about 8 feet above the road, ran into my car, told my friend who was with me by the river, to get into the car now, we need to go, and I didn’t stop until I got home, and out of the woods. I had planned to spend the day there swimming, and fishing the Applegate River, I have to say we were only there for less than an hour, 60 miles away from my house, so it’d be a waste of gas to take that trip for only an hour, I left my house at 9:30a.m. and was back by 11:15, I admit I was speeding the whole way to my house.
If it were a bear, it would of crashed off into the woods before I even would of known it was there, cause it would of known I was there, or if it were a Mountain Lion, I probably wouldn’t be typing this to you. I know what I saw, it wasn’t a bear or cougar, they don’t walk on their hind legs. I grew up in the Wilderness of Klamath Falls, Oregon, I’ve seen the animals that God has put on this planet, and this isn’t anything I’ve seen before except on all these videos of sightings, Think of Patty, that’s what I saw, I dunno if it was threatening at all, it was to me, there’s been a lot of unsaid sighting that happen in the Red Buttes Wilderness which extends from the Ore/Cal boarder, to hwy 96 Siskyou county, Saied Valley, Happy Camp, Indian Creek Road, Oregon Caves National Monument, and probably 1000’s of more.I read on a report that a hippie farmer from Talkemla says that he and his cohorts since they were little have been warned about the bigfoot living in this area, and that they are highly territorial,aggressive, and traveling into this area, is putting yourself in opportunity/danger of running into one of these creatures.
please contact me, nobody else will
Location: Mason County, Washington State
At the time of this sighting I was homeless and living in my station wagon. I always took showers at a campground on Harstine Island. At about 11:30pm I was traveling north on the Island and was doing the speed limit and watching out for deer in the road because there are a lot of them on the Island. I was coming up to the grange hall turn where there is a connecting road that travels south on the eastern side of the Island. There is a hill at the point of the intersection and I slowed down to the recommended speed because there is a hairpin turn just down the other side.
As my light’s came over the top of the hill I could see into the large pasture next to the road where it turned left. It was a clear fall night and the moon was out so I could see very good.
I noticed something standing in the field couldn’t remember seeing it before. I thought it was a tree stump at first but there wasn’t one there before. Then I thought about the horses that are usually there in the daytime but it just wasn’t it. I was slowing down to about 10-15 mph so I could turn left when this thing turned it’s head and looked straight at me. I remember quickly slowing the car and almost came to a stop. As I rolled through the corner it turned in the same direction and walked at the same speed I was rolling.
It was absolutely HUGE! It wasn’t very far from my car maybe 40ft. The field is about 3-4 ft below the road and this thing towered over me so I had to look over the top of the steering wheel to see it. I could smell it and it burned my nose. My window’s were up but the heater was on. It took long stride’s and was actually moving faster than me and I stopped the car because I thought it was going to come over the barbed wire fence into the road in front of me. It walked down the fence line and I followed at a distance but I could still see it very clearly.
At the corner of the fence line the road turn’s sharply to the right and it just stepped over the fence with no trouble at all. I remember feeling scared to death and the hair on my body was standing up. It crossed the road at the corner and disappeared on the other side in the brush.
The turnoff to the park is about a 1/4 mile past that and to the left. I raced to the campground and took my shower as quickly as I could. I remember almost being in tears when I came out to get back in my car. I was still pretty shook up and I knew it was not far away from where I was.I usually stayed at the campground on those night’s but not that night.
The next day I returned to the area of the sighting and I didn’t see any horses or tree stump’s but I did see where the fence was pushed down. I talked to a friend of mine who lives on the Island and he said there were 3 or 4 of them there. I never came back at night again.
In July 1984 at about 11:00 p.m. my friend Will and I were traveling westbound on state route 4, when I noticed movement on the south side of the road. What I saw was a large black head and shoulders coming over the guardrail on the south side of the road. As I came to a stop, I turned on the high-beams and saw the creature step easily over the guardrail. It was about 8 feet tall with a kind of shiney black hair covering most of its body.
As the creature walked, I noticed it never quite straightened its legs, yet it had a graceful stride. Its arms hung fairly low, coming to just above the knees. It was very powerfully built with massive chest and arms. Even though it was covered with hair, I could see its muscles flexing in its legs and arms.
Most of the hair was an inch or two long with some maybe 4 inches on the back and shoulders. This thing was big. In my estimation it had to have weighed 800 pounds or more. As it neared the center of the road it actually turned and looked right at us. Doing so required it to turn its upper body as its head sat low between its shoulders. When it looked at us its brow furrowed in what I believe to be a look of anger. It looked really pissed off. I could see its palms as it swung its arms and noticed it had either no or very little hair in the palm area. Also the “soles” of its feet appeared to be devoid of hair. there was almost a hairline at the sides of its feet.
Also noticed was what appeared to be male genitalia , though the genitalia would have to be considered quite small when taking into account the size of the creature. It turned its head back to the forward position and continued across the road and out of my headlights.
On the right (north) side of the road here is basically a shear cliff. It had to have climbed right on up. There was no other place it could have gone. I actually turned my truck in the direction it was moving to see it and could not. My friend who was quite frightened, said “what the hell was that?” I believe my response was something like ” A damned bigfoot. That was a damned bigfoot” In my opinion, there’s absolutely nothing else it could have been.
We were driving down the highway away from Mt.St. Helens and saw a hairy being, a sasquatch, alongside the road.It was seen by all in the car, my wife, my child and myself. It looked to covered in black hair all over it’s body and was moving quickly from one group of trees across a meadow to another group of trees.
It moved in a quick loping fashion with it’s arms extended downward and swinging at it’s side. In it’s right hand it carried a club like item.
We backed up and went down a side gravel road and went up it looking for the sasquatch. After a few hundred yards we turned around and went down and tried another area but still saw nothing. We then went back to the meadow area and drove slowly up the slope of the meadow.
The meadow was surrounded by trees and was about a football field in length. We were at one end and all again saw the sasquatch at the other end of the meadow.
It was turned away from us looking in the direction we had just been in and appeared to be looking to see where we had gone.
I got out of the car and started approaching it quietly from behind. I got within 30 yards of it when my wife called out to me and it turned it’s head
When he saw me he jerked and turned to go into the trees. I called out to it “wait, come back” but it gave no response.
Physical Appearance is about 6 foot height. Head to feet covered in long shaggy black hair or fur. It looks like the black fur on a buffalo neck, long and matted looking. His face was covered with hair on the checks up towad the eyes.
In it’s right hand it carried a club about 18″-20″ long about 3 ” in diameter, with roots hanging from the end of it.
I found footprints that I measured about 14 inches in length with the heel being about 4 inches wide. The stride length from the heel of one to the toe of another step was approximately 41 inches. The depth averaged 3/8 to 1/2 inch in fairly soft grassy area. My step was about 1/4 inch and I weigh about 150 lbs.
Investigators managed to locate a total of 5 possible prints, but only one had any detail. Unfortunately, the track was left in heavy forest duff, thus minimizing any hopes for finding dermal ridges. However, what appears to be the large toe did press directly into mud, leaving a couple of small patches that could be dermal ridges.
Minerva Monster is a documentary centered around a series of sightings of a strange creature in and around the town of Minerva, Ohio. The sightings were accompanied by animal deaths, strange happenings and packs of “monster hunters” descending on the town.
Minerva Monster will premiere at the Ohio Bigfoot Conference on Saturday, May 16th 2015 and be available for purchase shortly thereafter. A Kickstarter campaign will launch on February 1st.
The film is directed by Seth Breedlove and produced by Alan MeGargle and Jesse Morgan. It is the first in a series called Small Town Monsters.
An Alabama minister believes she has captured the sounds of a baby bigfoot, and even a protective mother bigfoot “hitting” her dog.
Mary K. Scruggs, an Alabama minister from the North River area, told Cryptozoology News that she was in her upstairs bedroom watching television when she heard the sounds late in the evening of Dec. 4.
“My bathroom is on the back side of the house, and I always keep my window open to let a little fresh air in. At about 10:27 p.m., I could hear something out back, and it was loud enough that in the next room with the TV going I could hear it,” she explained. “At this time it was crying continuously. The whole time I am standing there I am thinking where is Sledge my German Shepherd.. He goes ninety to nothing when he hears the slightest noise.”
Scruggs estimated the creature to be at about 300 feet from her house.
The audio recording, which lasts about one minute, contains a series of high-pitched unidentified animal calls followed by dog barks and a yelp.

My son and I were turkey hunting on BLM land near Fort Carson, CO. We arrived in the area around 0930hrs. My son is only 3 and 1/2 years old, so we were moving slowly to find a good spot to set up. We were approximately 500 yards off the west side of Sate Hwy 115 in the Table Mountain area. We found a decent site to set up on and started our hunt. I called a few times with my diaphragm calls and we heard one turkey gobble about 100yds away. My sun was busy playing with rocks right next to our site. At about 1030hrs I noticed a truck driving down a dirt road that runs through the area. I watched the truck drive through the area and as it turned down a left hand bend in the road, I caught some movement out the corner of my right eye. The movement was approximately 600yds away. I picked up my binoculars to get a better look, hoping it was a turkey coming in to my calls. When I got focused on the object, it definitely appeared larger than a turkey, so I checked it out more and focused the lenses better. What I saw, I don’t know for sure, but it appeared to be walking upright on its hind legs and and was covering a great deal of ground in a short span of time but was not running. I estimated the being to be approximately 6-7ft in height. It was walking northwest from my location. After about a minute or two it disappeared into some high brush and thickets. That terrain went up and over a little rise. I did not see anything else after that. We left the area about an hour later. I was shaking a little bit from excitement, but didn’t want to hang around too much longer. I have told no one of this thinking myself to be a little crazy at the time, but I know I wasn’t seeing things and it actually happened. I only tell this now to get it off my chest and let you guys determine if what I have said and seen is true or not. The temperature was warm and the sky was clear and sunny.
After a telephone interview with the witness, a few details can be added to his report. He is a soldier stationed at Ft. Carson and was in between tours of Iraq at the time of this sighting. Prior to this incident, he had not even considered the possibility of these creatures being present in this area but a subsequent internet search convinced him that he may have actually seen a bigfoot because of the numerous other reports in the same general vicinity. For fear of ridicule, he has not discussed his apparent sighting with anyone but felt compelled to make it known and get it on the record.
From his vantage point, the figure was off to the west toward Table Mountain and was headed in a northerly direction toward Cheyenne Mountain and the southern slopes of Pikes Peak. The location is on or very near the El Paso and Fremont County line.
After first noticing the movement, he watched the figure in the distance by eye for almost a minute. Realizing that it was much larger than a turkey, he continued watching through his binoculars for another thirty to forty-five seconds. Due to the uniform dark-brown to black coloring and apparent size, he then thought he was looking at a bear, and then a bear on two legs, at which point he was stunned by the certainty that it was not a bear. The figure clearly walked on two legs for the duration of the sighting. The witness was struck by the apparent speed of the creature walking, but never running, which covered an estimated three to four hundred meters or more while he was focused in on it. He felt certain that, in comparison, he would not be able to cover that amount of distance in that time. The figure was in the open in high grass until he lost sight of it when it went into the brush and then behind a hillside. He kept watching in that direction for several more minutes but saw nothing more.
In May of 1993 Some of my friends of mine and I decided to go trout fishing above Helen, Ga.. After fishing for a couple of hours one guy and I decided to go upriver to find some new spots. So we started walking up an old roadbed that followed along the river. We eventually got to a spot where there was a gully across the road, at one time there must of been a bridge. While me and my friend were standing there we heard a loud thud behind us. As we turned around there was a big ten foot log (about the diameter of a car tire) laying there. Take into account just a second ago that log was not there. We climbed over the log and started to head back down the road when all of a sudden we heard leaves shuffling above us. Both my friend and I had a strange feeling as we looked at each other. At the same time we both looked up above us and there was a Bigfoot standing 10-15 feet from us. We halled ass out of there. We finally made it back to where our other friends were, and told them what happened. They wanted to go see, the guy that was with me said no and went back to the vehicle. I took the other two guys to show them, and on the way there we saw a footprint in the mud that looked like someone walking barefoot except it was approx. 18 inches long. We walked back up and saw nothing else.
Now I am 6’3″ and 290 lbs., and this thing dwarfed me big time. It was at least 9 feet tall and about 4 feet across at the shoulders. It had to way around 800 lbs., It really looked like a big human covered in long shaggy black hair. The thing that got me was its reddish brown eyes. It took years for me to go back up there fishing, and when I did I would not go alone. It is weird cause sometimes when up there you feel safe, but other times it feels like something is watching you. Since then I have heard wood knocking, vocalizations, and had rocks thrown at me. I do not hesitate to go up there anymore, but I will not go alone.
