Couple see a Bigfoot near McKenzie Bridge
Account
The witness and a companion parked off a logging road and, after feeling watched and noting unusual quiet, left the spot and drove to the top of a ridge. While the witness was dressing, the companion watched two figures cross a distant clearcut on their hind legs from the area they had just left. By the time the witness looked, the figures had disappeared into the forest. The witness doubted the figures were bears because bears would not cross rugged slash on hind legs.
