Sasquatch sighting near St. Anthony, Idaho (1940)

As a young teenager bringing cows across a canal near dark, the diarist saw a large bear-like figure standing on hind feet by a sapling 600-700 feet away and felt intense chill. Cows were undisturbed and his father was unconcerned. Next morning with his friend [name withheld] he found a huge bare footprint in wet mud under the sapling, estimated 8.5-9 feet tall using [name withheld]'s height, and nearby found a stick-bed with a strong repulsive odor.

Sasquatch sighting in Idaho

A year after Colorado, the guest was rifle hunting elk with his father and twelve others in the Frank Church Wilderness. One early morning he heard a moose-like grunt, saw a large brown creature approaching about 210 yards away, and fired two rifle shots, believing he hit its shoulder and back. The group found droplets of blood and high blood spray on aspens but, after two days searching, never recovered the animal.

UFO sighting in Idaho

While staying alone at his employer's mountain house, the guest used night vision binoculars on the porch to look at stars and the valley. About 200 to 300 yards away and 30 feet above the treetops he saw a silent hovering saucer with pulsating edge lights. It was invisible to the naked eye, so after watching about a minute he went inside and locked up.

Cryptid sighting near St. Anthony, Idaho

Soon after the first incident, while riding horseback in sparse pasture, the diarist found two 4-5 foot tall owl-like beings with large eyes and sockets. They did not flee; they stepped toward him as he stepped, stared, and seemed to look at each other as if communicating. He circled them on horseback, tried shouting and waving, then rode home for a .22 to shoot around them, but they were gone on return.

Sasquatch sighting in Idaho

A few years later the witness built a permanent tree stand in a remote meadow area and twice found food missing from an unzipped backpack without the pack being destroyed. Later that hunting season he shot a deer, hung it in a tree, and slept in the stand. He awoke in the middle of the night to grunting and a small hairy figure trying to take the hung deer, yelled thinking it was a person stealing, then saw it flee on all fours into the moonlight.
