Father and son experience "disappearing stump" on Carmen Creek Road while scouting for deer during the day outside the city of Salmon

The witness and his son were driving on a rough road while hunting for deer late in the day. The witness stopped to scan a ridge about 300 yards away and saw a large dark standing figure near a tree that they joked looked like Bigfoot but assumed was a stump. After driving to a dead end and returning less than three minutes later, the figure was gone. The witness remains uncertain what it was and is not convinced it was Bigfoot.

Young deerhunters see moving biped shape and later hear vocalizations

At dusk while setting up a shelter near camp, the witness and a cousin felt watched and saw a very large bipedal silhouette about ten feet away.
