It’s no secret that Colorado is known for its Bigfoot sightings – there’s literally a local museum dedicated to the elusive creature in Bailey and reports related to someone spotting the creature in the Centennial State have been filed more than 100 times on the The Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization website. That said, many residents seem to be a bit undecided, to say the least, when it comes to whether or not the creature even exists – that said, a recent account may sway opinions.

One of the 131 Colorado encounters that prompted a Bigfoot sighting report to be filed took place as recently as March of this year.

That reported sighting took place in Boulder County near the town of Hygiene on St. Vrain Road.

The witness of that case reports seeing a large ape-like creature walking down a road in front of their property at about 10 p.m., estimating that it stood about eight feet tall while hunched over. The witness reports having never seen anything like it before in the 52 years they’ve been living at the property, as well as that they’re unaware of any other sightings that have taken place in the general area.

There were no other witnesses and digital media of the creature was not captured. Without another report having been filed out of that area, the Bigfoot presumably hasn’t been seen since.

Think this sighting was legit? Have you ever had a similar encounter?
