This is an event that happened to myself and 3 friends. This took place at least 30 years ago near Mount Jefferson in Oregon. I have my theories on what it was. What do you think? If you can find the article, it would be in “The Statesman Journal” in Salem, Oregon. Most likely in the archives.

Im glad he decided to record his story…… love the old school thought process; His surprise, that they were mating.

A lot of older people are like that. They won’t jump to any conclusions at all, even if they get a much better look. lol But, that’s why their encounters are so cool.

I think it was Bigfoot.

I think it was a Bigfoot too, Carol! And I am glad he related his story. His poor buddy wants nothing more to do with that area. I bet he got a better look at the creature. That would be so unnerving to wake up out in the middle of nowhere and have one of those damn dirty apes looking at you!

I agree, Bigfoot! I’ve been up to Pamelia Lake many times hunting elk with my Dad through the years, and up on top of Grizzly Peak where we would camp out on top of the ridge…it is so beautiful up there, but also leaves you with an unsettled nervousness that you aren’t alone!

I think it was Bigfoot too.
Poor man, I believe his body language and gestures spoke volumes. He found his encounter much more frightening than he let on.

I’m with Allen!

Spot on Kay, body language speaks volumes and his was speaking Sasquatch

A sasquatch most likely…

Bigfoot loves Oregonians!

Correction Christopher C, Bigfoot loves to scare the crap put of Oregonians.

lol, most Oregonians think they are going to see one, or have seen one!
