Back when I was a teenager, some buds and I had the use of a cabin outside of Markleeville, Ca.   This particular cabin is small but had (and still has, i guess) a loft, which is where I was sleeping after a long day of hiking and fishing.  Perhaps about 3 am, I woke up, although it was quiet and nothing was amiss that I noticed. I decided, after laying there awhile, that it was as good a time as any to get up and visit the bathroom.  As I was heading for the stairs, I sensed something, a lessening of the moon light coming into the room. The moon was full, and the loft had been actually quite well lit by the moon light coming in from the small window.

I turned instinctively to see why the room had suddenly darkened, and saw the outline of a huge head at the window, only a few feet from where I was.  Recall that this was a second story window, and you can imagine my surprise and disbelief at what it seemed I was seeing. I couldn't see anything but the outline of the head, no glowing eyes or anything, but I could distinguish hair all around it.  Whatever it was let out a huffing sound as soon as it realized I had turned and was looking at it, and then it moved away from the window and disappeared. 

I was so surprised and dumbfounded by this experience, that I just stood there for some time, probably a short time, but I wasn't keeping track.  There was no way I was going to go over to the window and look out, as I knew that whatever that was shouldn't be allowed to get any closer to me.  After a bit i pulled myself together, and  I hurried downstairs, woke up my friends, and turned every light on in the cabin.  They didn't know whether I was serious or pulling their legs, but as a group we eventually got some flashlights and all three of us went outside and looked around.  The only thing we could find that night, or the next day, was some scuff marks on the ground around the back side of the cabin, but no clear footprints or anything, as the ground was either hard packed earth or rock.

Now I can't say exactly what it was I saw that night, as I only saw it for a few seconds, and then only in outline, but it wasn't a bear that was looking in the second floor window at three in the morning.  My fishing was over for that trip, and it definitely creeped me out later to consider the relatively remote sections of creek I had been fishing alone the day before.  I have never had an experience like that since, and hope I never do.

ratdog:  I think they slipped a mole into the site here that is warning them of what we are thinking and advising them to stay away from those areas and those folk who may have encountered them before; gotta admit that they can be sneaky and tough to spot. 

It's either that or they got special funding from obama's acorn group to sign up for his new health plan and shaved their beards - their women hide theirs behind full burkas................ toldja they were sneaky.....  Just look for big hairy toes sticking out from underneath that 'head to toe' muslim women's ensemble and you should have them pegged.........

They are all trying out for dancing with the stars and survivor and the other "reality" shows.     ear

With the new show on TV  "searching for bigfoot''  by the BFRO guys i find it very interesting.  They seem to move from place to place with no really upclose pics yet.  Its on the FLIR but no pics yet.   It has stirred my interests to actulayy go hunting for one too not to shoot it but to observe it.
 
Do a search for;   may 7 2011 bigfoot shot story and read what comes up. If its true some ahole shot a mother BF with a baby shot too.
 
At my camp in VT my bacon cheese burgers brings in BF to look closer wanting my viddles.  Soon i'll cook them gain and leave some outside for him.  I'm hoping to rig up some kind of 12v motion detector with no lite just a buzz to wake me up to look ooutside.

when I used to winter camp, bigfoot would come sit by the fire.  he especially liked butter finger candy bars.  I tried to teach him to talk by very slowly sounding out b-u-t-t-e-r  f-i-n-g-e-r, but the best he could do was buh-fuh.      kinda like some guys at work.

WORDS OF ADVICE !!  Don't teach them how to talk and stay away from them, they become like a fowl mouth parrot and get upset and violent when you run out of butter fingers.

[Casull]

Hmm, non-English speaking, smelly, unwashed and looking for freebies.  Dang, just what we don't need new, giant-sized democrats. 

[1911crazy]

Do not feed them after 12am with butter fingers they will turn into something i don't want to run into, anyhoo they will like 5th avenues much better at least the chipmunks do.
 
Next i'm going to cook my bacon cheeseburgers outside and share them with BF and he can bring the family for a cookout too.  We'll also cook up some dogs and toast marshmellows too. Making friends with bigfoot its the next reality show.

[Glanceblamm]

1911crazy, you might try the Jack-Links beef jerky as it seems to work well for those on the TV. My wife gets very sad for that bigfoot on these episodes.

[Graybeard]

I enjoy reading the stories also but have to admit I don't take them seriously.

It happened in Cougar (WA) on a dark and stormy night. A group of folks showed up in the local pub wearing new sporting clothes and driving new Suburbans with brush guards. The locals were curious. So they went over and asked them who they were. The locals were informed that this was a Research Party here to do scientific research and reporting on Bigfoot or Sasquash as they are referred to locally. After a few beers one of the locals explained - Don't you know there ain't no such thing as Bigfoots - that's all BS like Santa Calus? To which the biggest (and probably drunkest) of the new crew replied - You sir are an Ignorant Lout. I have a doctorate in Native American Culture, that man over there is an expert in large animal husbandry and that man over there is a renowned journalist from Seattle. We are here to find, authenticate, and report on Bigfoot.


The local boy was restrained by his buddies and dragged out to his pickup truck. They retired to their wood shop and created some plywood Big Feet. The ignorant louts made it their business to track up the country side where ever the city boys were in search of their prey.


The city boys never saw one but they are true believers. They have seen the footprints in the snow.

[jlchucker]

Great story, Higene.  City folk wandering around in the countryside to do "studies" have been, and should always be, considered fair game in this manner.  It's how the famous Snipe Hunts came into being.

[BUGEYE]

I don't believe in bigfoot, but, I really, really wish that he was real.  that would add some spice to a squirrel hunt.

I must admit that the subject of BF intrigues me. I used to go to the MABRC every day because I enjoyed the stories. Yes, some were far fetched but I still enjoyed it. Some low lifes attacked them with a terrible virus and I had to take my puter to the shop. I've been afraid to go back. I've hunted and camped all my life and on only 1 occasion seen or heard something I could not identify. The sound was close and made the hair stand up on the back of my neck. I got the very real feeling that whatever it was could kill me if it wanted to. I went to the house, fish weren't biting anyway. POWDERMAN.
