Teens observe a Bigfoot in daylight on a gas line route between Hillsborough and East Amwell townships
Account
Three people walking along a gas pipeline to fish crested a hill and saw a tall shaggy brown creature standing 200-300 feet away. All three watched it for about 20-30 seconds before it ran quickly into the woods off the path. Afterward they found four impressions in the tall wet grass where it had left and remained nervous while fishing.
