REPORT DETAIL

Description of event: Hi Autumn, My Grandfather was a logging contractor and he would frequently take me with him on the weekends to scout out new logging sales. On this particular occasion we were on what the locals call the "High drive". It is a very primitive and remote location in northern Idaho. We were driving along a two track road in his pickup when a large hairy "man" came down the hill and crossed the road. I was only 7 years old at the time and he looked 20 feet tall but in reality he was probably about 7 or 8 feet tall. My grandfather stopped the truck and grabbed his rifle (it was also hunting season) and jumped out of the truck. I could hear crashing on the downside of the road and we did not see him (the hairy man) again. I have always thought that we saw a Bigfoot that day. There is no reason for a man in a monkey suit to be 75 miles from civilization roaming around just to be seen by a passerby! This goes to prove that Bigfoot is not just in the remote areas of Oregon, Washington, B.C. and California. They ARE in Idaho also. Thanks.
