A large biped seen in headlights on a moonlit night in the Chuska Mountains

Late at night while driving on a dirt road in the mountains, the witness and family saw a tall dark figure standing by a small pond in bright moonlight. When the driver angled the headlights toward it, the figure turned and ran upright on two legs into the trees within seconds. The witnesses described it as much taller and wider than a person with no clothing, and a next-day return found no tracks.

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.

Report data: BFRO - Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization, Sasquatch Chronicles (podcast, local transcripts). Summaries are written for the Anomadex; original reports stay with their publishers. Map data © OpenStreetMap contributors ·

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
