Daylight sighting by hikers at Mayflower Gulch outside Leadville

The witness was sitting on a rock in a high basin while hiking when they saw a large brown biped try to climb a snow cornice, fail, climb down, and walk briskly north out of view, then later reappear walking south above the cornice. About 45 minutes later the witness returned to the spot with another hiker and found handprints and footprints in the snow and photographed them. No further sighting occurred after traversing the difficult slope.

Two brothers witness an upright creature while at a cabin near Red Feather

Two people staying at a mountain cabin watched a large black upright animal move from near a river across a road and uphill toward an aspen grove over about two minutes, using binoculars for part of the observation. The animal turned toward a passing truck, then moved away with longer strides while looking back. Afterwards the witnesses went to the grove and found and measured a large five-toed footprint, but snow prevented further tracking.

Two hunters recount late morning sighting near Hotchkiss

While hunting deer, the witness and companions stopped on a road overlooking a slope and watched several upright jet-black creatures for several minutes with the naked eye and optics. Two larger individuals were first seen in the open, then smaller individuals about half their size emerged from a draw. The creatures moved into brush as a pickup passed on a road below, and the witnesses later found only sliding marks in loose dirt on the steep hillside.

Sasquatch sighting near Telluride, Colorado (1988)

The witness stopped in a boggy area after sundown to fill a canteen while bow hunting. He noticed a dark shaggy huddled shape nearby that later disappeared, then found small human-like tracks in mud and encountered a strong musky odor. The next morning he found space behind a boulder where something could have hidden. Looking back years later he interpreted the shape as several primates huddled together.

October 1986 Teller County, Colorado Class B #1375

fresh set of tracks found in the snow.

Three people in two pickups crested a hill at dawn and noticed a fresh set of large tracks looping across an open hillside in new snow. A relative glassed the area with binoculars, became visibly upset, and said he thought he had seen bigfoot. The group did not approach the tracks or the area and avoided it altogether. The account was relayed secondhand by a close friend of one of the men.

Sasquatch sighting near Conejos County (1984)

The witness was scouting high-elevation timber for a later elk hunt when he noticed tree breaks, pushovers and tracks. From boulders he glassed about eight hairy bipeds with young, watching them for about half an hour as some appeared to hide at a choke point while others circled. He concluded they were hunting deer and left with his companion before dark.

15 October 1970 Routt County, Colorado Class A #1372

Hunters have an encounter returning from hunt

Three elk hunters walking back toward camp heard a loud crash and chased what they assumed was a bull elk to the rim of a deep, steep-sided canyon. From across the canyon the reporter watched through a rifle scope as a tall, black-haired biped ran up the opposite slope on two feet and briefly turned to show its face in profile before entering the trees. The group chose not to pursue closely, later backtracked the trail toward the highway, and examined broken vegetation and footprints the following day.
