Class A First-hand BFRO #20884

Daytime encounter by two people near Rock Creek Road

August 2007 Approx. 5:30pm About 22 Miles From Town In The Sawtooth Forrest, Cassia County, Idaho 2 witnesses

Account

The witness and a younger relative parked and hiked toward a beaver dam meadow. The relative heard knocking sounds and then saw a tall hunched hair-covered figure with striking yellow eyes watching from the treeline, while the witness smelled a strong odor and the dog barked and kept looking back. The group walked back to the truck without running while hearing twigs snapping behind them, and later wondered if they had disturbed the animal while feeding.
