ATV rider recalls passing very close to a Bigfoot at dusk in Eight Mile Canyon near Leadore

July 2007 evening, just before dark Leadore, Clark County, Idaho 1 witness

Account

In July 2007 the witness and a companion were riding ATVs back toward camp in the evening when the witness noticed a low shape beside the trail. As he passed, the shape stood to about eight feet, faced away then looked over its shoulder and extended an arm toward him, causing him to duck and accelerate away. He also reported a strong elk-like odor. The companion ahead did not see the figure but noticed the witness was shaken afterward.
