A listener writes “I lived in Washington many years ago and had two possible encounters. The first took place near Chehalis, where I was living in a wooded area. On several evenings, I heard heavy, bipedal footsteps moving through the trees, along with repeated tree knocking. The sounds were deliberate and unsettling, and they happened more than once.
The second encounter was more definitive and occurred near Leavenworth. One evening, something at least seven feet tall crossed the road directly in front of me. It was completely black and crossed a two-lane road in no more than four steps.
These events happened roughly fifty years ago, when I was in my twenties.
At the time, I had a friend who lived about a mile away near Chehalis. He was a very logical, serious man, not prone to exaggeration or belief in the unusual. When I told him about what I had experienced, he told me plainly that it was Bigfoot. He then shared that he and his brother had both had two encounters of their own a few years earlier.”
