First-hand Oregon Bigfoot #4405

Large upright creature sighted

22 August 2008 late afternoon Gales Creek, Tillimook County, Oregon

Account

The witness was using tripod-mounted still and video cameras with telephoto lenses near a logging road and noticed a moving spot on a trail at the tree line. The witness took still photos and video but could not relocate the object with high-powered binoculars. Later close review of the frames appeared to show a brownish, upright-walking figure moving northbound among sunlit white tree trunks.
