Woman describes vivid early morning sighting just below Independence Pass
The witness stopped while commuting before dawn to get air and wake up. From beside the truck she watched a furry reddish figure stand upright, tip its head back as if sniffing, stare at her, then bend to pick up a small object and run bipedally across a meadow toward the treeline. She then drove away shaking and tearful, convinced it was not a bear.
Startled hiker sees tall shaggy biped on trail near Leadville
A solo hiker descending a high mountain trail heard a very loud scream-growl vocalization and stopped to scan. He saw a tall, hairy biped about 50 yards away at the forest edge staring at him for several seconds, tilting its head before turning and running fast into the pines out of sight. He then continued down the trail anxiously without photographing it.
strange loud howls heard by retired wildlife biologist on a camping trip.
The witness was camping and was awake in a sleeping bag in the early morning when extremely loud, bellowing two-part vocalizations were heard. One or possibly two warbling or yodeling replies followed from the same direction. A few minutes later two bursts of rifle fire were heard from that direction, and a subsequent search with spotlights up to 2 km north and south found nothing.
huge human-like handprint found on top of a vandalized sign.
The witness and at least one other person parked on a dirt road near a stream at night. They heard sloshing in the water and later saw a large figure run across the road ahead of the headlights and heard heavy steps in sagebrush. Using a spotlight they glimpsed a tall dark primate-like figure cross in front of a large boulder and enter dense timber.
Couple sees "power-walking" biped in forest above Leadville
The witness was driving with her husband on a mountain road in the afternoon while camping. They saw a large black bipedal animal walking through a clearing toward the mountainside. It had very long arms and took huge unhurried strides before disappearing into dense pines within a few seconds. Despite having a camcorder beside them, they did not film it.
