Memory told of being chased off by frightening thumps and scream while hiking in Pikes Peak State Park

In September 1970 the witness and her husband were hiking a deserted trail in Pikes Peak State Park toward the Mississippi River overlook. From behind trees they heard extremely loud thumping sounds followed by an unfamiliar loud scream, without seeing the source. Frightened, they ran back to the ranger station to report what happened. Years later after watching television programs, the witness concluded the sounds were likely made by a bigfoot.

The Database of Unexplained Encounters. Claims are recorded as claims: the Anomadex catalogues what people reported, where it was reported, and how sure I am that it was read correctly. It does not rule on what they saw.

A quick ask from the person behind the Anomadex: if you allow analytics, Google Analytics shows me which places, phenomena and searches you're most curious about. That tells me which regions and sources to add next and what to make easier to find. It never sees your name or anything you send me, and nothing is set unless you say yes. Privacy
