Account

Four coworkers at a cable logging site noticed movement across a canyon. Two of them watched the subject for about 15 minutes through a rifle scope from about 2500 feet away. They described an upright two-legged figure with broad shoulders, reddish-brown hair and a pointed head moving unhurriedly toward a ridge until it disappeared. After work they discussed the sighting and concluded it was a bigfoot.
