Sasquatch sighting in Utah (2002)

2002 afternoon Utah 1 witness

Account

The witness was alone stalking grouse with a slingshot about two miles from a family camp. He heard bipedal footsteps and saw a large all-brown figure walking 100 yards away. After he made a family hoot call, the figure hid motionless behind a narrow tree for 30-45 minutes, then sprinted away on two legs when he approached, outrunning him to a cliff area.
