Class A First-hand BFRO #15588

Daytime sighting of white creature near Dillon

BFRO YEAR: late 60s morning or daytime in full light Dillon, Summit County, Colorado 2 witnesses

Account

Two riders on a small bike rode up a forest trail to a beaver pond and encountered a large white-furred creature squatting at the water's edge reaching into the water. The driver quickly turned the bike to leave while the passenger slipped off, glanced briefly, and saw the creature stand up much larger than a person before it disappeared from view. The pair reported the sighting to family members at the cabin but were not taken seriously.
