As I redcall, this sighting took place in the spring, March of 1987. I had 2 sightings of the same creature, on the same day. The first one was at about 3:00 AM. I was sleeping in hte upstairs bedromm of my parents home, I was in the eight grade at the time. I got up to go to the bathroom and as I would on any moon lit night I looked ou the window of the bedroom to see if any deer were on the hill behind my parents house.
I grew up in the Methow Valley, which is known for its exceedingly large migratory deer heard, and I spent more time in the outdoors paterning mule deer and whitetail than I did just about anything else, so looking out to see if there were any good bucks on the slope that hadn't shed their horns yet was an every night practice for me. I remember that it was a friday night and the next day a friend of mine was coming over and he would get in on the second sighting of the creature. Any way, as I got up and looked out he window, I was drawn to a figure kneeling on the ditch bank above my house, at a distance of about 40 to 45 yards, I lived in this house until I was about 21 so I am very familiar with what is around it and what is not. I remember thinking at first that it was just the big cottonwood stump on hte ditch bank, and it finally shead all its bark, but then I realized that it just didn't look right.
I then took a closer look and realized that it was an animal of some kind, but not any that I had seem before. I then took my rifle down and looked through the scope at the animal, could see very distinctly that it was what I believed to be a bigfoot, Yehti, Sasquatch or what ever you want to call it. I then took out my spotting scope and set it up on the window edge and looked at the animal for a long time, ten to 15 minutes, I then woke my little brother who was 10 or so at the time and I don't remeber if he would get up and look or not, as I recall, he did not, I then went to my parents room and asked them to come and look, and they were not interested, I to this day cannot figure out why anyone would not jump at the chance to see something like this, but no one did. I contiplated shooting the animal, and then thought, what kind of things are going to happen if I am shooting at night, at animals that most folks don't even think exist, and if I kill it, is there any huge fine for this kind of thing, and if I don't kill it, what might it be inclined to do to me if it gets ahold of me? I also didn't really want to shoot at it, it didn't look even the least bit ferocious or evil or wild.
Here is where my story differs from any I have read about or seen on TV. THis animal was very large, and his color was angel hair white, almost a florescent glow, and with the full moon on him, he was very well outlined. He had almond shaped eyes, they sloped down at the outer edge and were outlined in a very silky black color, this color held true for his lips, and his nose. There were no obvious ears, though I am sure he had a set.
Also, his head was very long, from chin to top of forehead, an easy 12 to 14 inches. He knelt the whole time with one knee on the ground, the other knee he rested his elbow on I can remembervery well his forearm hair blowing slightly in the breeze. His kneeling height was well over six feet and I am sure of this, because I know every rock and tree on that ditch bank and have stood in that very same spot a thousand times. That morning, probably along about noon, when my freind arrived, we rode our bikes up the road towards town and as we rounded the corner above my parents home, my friend came to a screaching halt on his bike and said what is that? I looked, and up ahead of us a couple hundred yards, on same ditch bank, but 3/4 quarters of a mile to the North was the same creature, when he realized that we saw him, he took maybe 4 to 5 long strides and traveled a distance of probably 40 to 60 yards, cleared the hill top, and I never saw him again.
The color of his fur and the absolute apparent lean muscle mass in his legs upper body and arms was amazing, I figure him to be well over 8 feet tall, but not as tall as 10 feet.
