Sasquatch sighting near Gila National Forest I Can Provide Coordinates, New Mexico (2024)

The witness and his son were driving very slowly at night on a remote jeep trail in drizzling rain when their truck lights illuminated a large hair-covered figure standing motionless by the roadside. They watched it for about ten seconds as they passed within about ten to fifteen feet, noting mop-like hair, a distinct triangular nose, and very large biceps. The driver kept going out of fear and later returned to find a footprint at the spot with no stumps nearby.

Eight foot plus figure photographed peering into couple's RV near Red River

Early one morning while preparing to leave a campground, a couple noticed a large figure standing outside their trailer's bedroom window peering in. The privacy glass showed only a shadowy chest, head and part of an arm, which the companion photographed. When the witness opened a distant door and turned on a light, the figure was gone but quick footsteps were heard leaving down a gravel road. After sunrise they found large footprint-like impressions in the gravel near the trailer.
