A great report from Allegany County, NY. It was about 7 years ago in a town called Wellsville, New York, in Allegany county.
I was around 12 years old, as was my cousin who was with me. It was in the middle of winter, I want to say late January/Early February. It was a decent day outside, and we decided to take a walk on the paths behind her house, which would take you down towards the Allegany River.
We were about 1/2 the way down the trail, in a clearing that had woods on one side and a swamp on the other side. All of a sudden we both hear what we thought was an animal or something running through the woods, when (what we believe was a ‘bigfoot’) ran across the path we were walking on. It wasnt brown like we would have picture bigfoot being, it was more like grayish-white. It appeared to be around 6-7 feet tall. The only noise it made was a growling noise, it was different than a dogs growl. We were terrified and we ran, of course nobody believed us.
About 2 years ago, I was telling a friend about the incident, and we ended up taking a walk down to the area. When we got to the area, we heard something running towards us in the swamp area and then it stopped in a hurry. There was an over powering smell, and when we were walking back to our car we felt like we were getting followed and being watched.

First? ?
Would be good to get him on the show.
Any encounters that are visual are worth hearing.

My neck of the woods. Don’t hear about too much action out here. Plenty of woods out here though. Hope to hear more encounters from this area.

Ther has been a fair number of BF reports in New York , and many derive from the rural outstate reaches as well as throughout the Allegany mountain range more specifically.
