Man watches a bigfoot in his headlights near Flaming Gorge

The witness was driving at night on a mountain pass when headlights caught eye reflections high off the ground. The witness stopped, backed up to illuminate an animal standing near the road, initially thinking it was a bear but concluding it was not based on its hair and walk. The animal stayed calm and walked slowly into the trees, covering ground quickly despite the truck noise. The witness left without approaching and later searches for tracks were unsuccessful.

Possible vocalization heard near Hoop Lake

The witness and three family members stopped their ATVs on a mountain shoulder overlooking a meadow and forest. After the witness twice imitated alleged sasquatch vocalizations, something answered from the nearby forest. The group left quickly after a cow moose bolted from the trees while looking back. The witness noted the answering sound did not match familiar wildlife but remained unconvinced it was a sasquatch.

Possible vocalizations heard by elk hunters in the Uintah Mountains (north slope)

The witness was camped with two companions to scout for an elk hunt in the Uinta Mountains. After sunset while cooking at camp, the witness and one companion heard a loud, deep, sustained roar from a hillside about 300 yards away. Both stopped talking and loaded their rifles, while the third companion did not hear the sound. The witness, familiar with local wildlife sounds, said it matched no known animal and later compared it to a gorilla roar.
