π Description
Hello, my name is Amber. Me and my husband and his cousin were up in the woods about 20 miles down the dirt road looking for a missing girl. We were using a spotlight at night to look through the trees and brush. We saw it about 75 yards from us. He was probably about 7 foot tall, at least 400lbs and really wide body and shoulders. He was hairy with matted white and brown hair around his flat hairless leathery face. His eyes reflected a golden color. He just stared at us. After a few minutes we got scared and left as fast as we could. Hours prior close to the same area when I was screaming the girls name I heard tree knocks. I jokingly said, "Oh hey it's Bigfoot!" My husband did not believe in bigfoot and was always skeptical about it until he actually saw one. He is a hunter and knows the wildlife. He said he knows what he seen and that's his only explanation for what he seen. It did look like a Bigfoot and really scared him a lot. He does not scare easy. The next day the hiker was found in a canyon. We talked to her afterwards. She said she walked away from her camp and then she saw something glowing like glowing lights or something. It moved towards her and that's what scared her. She ran from it and that led to her falling down the canyon. She was a ways down and lucky to be alive after that fall.
