Second-hand Oregon Bigfoot #445

Fishermen followed by curious creature

1990–1999 afternoon BEnd, Deschutes County, Oregon 2 witnesses

Account

Two coworkers drove up a dirt road to fish and walked toward a creek. After hearing splashing, they saw a large hairy figure standing in the creek about 100 feet away staring at them. They fled back to their pickup, and one man saw the figure had followed them to below the road, holding up a branch and watching them before they drove away.
