Morning visitor seen at an Elk Hunting Camp in the Medicine Bow National Forest

The witness awoke in a truck at a forest campsite around dawn and briefly saw a dark figure run between a tent and a parked vehicle. She first thought it was a companion, but the companion was elsewhere in camp and moved more slowly. The figure was visible only for a fraction of a second from the torso up and was not seen again. No footprints were found afterward despite wet ground.

Bear hunter has sighting while approaching bait site

The witness and a companion were resupplying a bear bait site on foot when they heard branches breaking upslope and saw a piece of tree fall. About 400 yards away on a ledge they saw a tall dark bipedal figure leaning against a broken tree. The witness watched it for 15-20 seconds before it stepped quickly into the treeline, and noticed a rancid odor near the bait site.

Hunter catches glimpse of biped on snowy road

The driver was traveling at night in light snow with a young child passenger when headlights revealed a large upright figure near the road. The figure moved downhill on two legs with long strides and a large upper body, which the driver felt differed from a bear. The driver stopped where the figure left the road and noticed smeared tracks in mud and snow leading downhill but did not follow them. The driver later said he believed the figure was likely a bigfoot.

Car passenger sees figure on road on remote, steep mountain pass

During a cross-country drive up steep mountain switchbacks in bright daylight, the passenger, who had been watching for wildlife, noticed a dark-clothed man-like figure standing beside an upcoming stretch of road and intended to warn the driver. The driver, focused on the road, did not see the figure. When the car rounded the switchback to that spot, the figure was gone despite steep cliffs and almost no shoulder where someone could have stepped away.

Vocalizations heard from creature seen by witness

A father and son were returning from an unsuccessful hunting trip when the father stopped by a fallen tree to light his pipe and saw a tall hairy unclothed figure standing nearby. The figure vocalized loudly after noticing the man, then walked quickly toward the woods. The son joined his father and both watched the first figure and a second slightly smaller one walk along the woods edge before disappearing into the trees.
