Benton County, Washington - Spokane Mid 1970's

Post by admin » Sat Nov 09, 2019 4:21 am

This is a 'bigfoot' story that my cousin told me about in 1994, which had taken place in the mid-70s. He was walking his dog on a nature trail in Spokane, Washington. The dog suddenly stopped abruptly in the middle of the trail, and seemed to be 'pointing' at something in a deadfall of large tree's just 'down' from them. It appeared to be a grey colored animal that was stepping over each limb without coming down on all fours at any time. It moved 'like a skater,' graceful and fast at the same time, until reaching a ridge. Though, I don't remember if he said whether the animal walked to the top of the ridge, or angled around it. He did say that just before the sighting, the nature sounds stopped. Like the sound of the birds that were noticeable up till that point. My cousin pointed out the creature was very tall and broad-shouldered.

Hey Yankeesearch, didn’t even know you were in chat, now you have the bug so bad you will have to keep going out to see another one. :)

Anyway, as I stand before God, I did not make this up!
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:55 am »
Not saying it was Sq/BF/DM/Yeti... but it was strange. And I am locking my doors tonight for sure! :lol:
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:54 am »
And just I was turning away, I thought I heard snort -- which could have been deer or maybe cattle... but... I do not know.
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:53 am »
I did not have the creepy feeling I normally get in these situations... so I really do not know what to make of it.
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:53 am »
One detail I forgot to mention: the whoop had almost a human like talk after it on both occasions.
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:52 am »
I walked back to the other side, and thought I heard a knock...
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:51 am »
Cattle about 1/8th mile away disappeared... and strangely at that location: it sounded like something banged the metal fence. Not loud... but never ever heard it before tonight.
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:50 am »
Two whoops... and some deer scattering (they may have been scattering because of me).
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:50 am »
From 6:20 PM to maybe 6:45 PM CST
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:49 am »
I may have just had an encounter!
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:46 am »
Hi gang! I know it has been a long time...
@ BrianDriver « Sat 12:59 pm »
Good quality pics. How long were the cams out?

Just to get the chat going, it’s going to take some time to move over all the data, but in the end, hope everyone likes the layout here.
