Miners Sluicing Gold Have Close Encounter with Idaho Bigfoot

Lucky Peak Sasquatch Encounter with Gold Miners

Here is the story of the gold claim. We moved to Boise in 1955 after Brehon was born. Dad met a guy at his work at yonkeys, there were machinists there. He was dad’s partner on this gold claim. We worked it from 1956 till 1962. They made over 20,000 off it in 6 years. Gold was 35 an ounce back then & so we had collected close to 600 ounces.

We would blast these big gravel areas about twice a year, then take and put it in sluice boxes. After washing it for a long time we would take it out of the washing process and pan the gold for the final.

This claim was between Boise and Idaho city it was about 4 miles off the pavement on a dirt road back to our claim where two creeks come together. We dammed off the main creek to make it deep enough for our sluice boxes to fit into it.

I hope you can make out my map, it explains a lot.

We only got placer gold, little tiny flakes. It came in a lot of colors. Red, yellow, orange, silver, black, and gold. After panning we would test these small flakes with different strength of acid, if it smoked it wasn’t gold, if no reaction then it was gold. We would pick it out and take to the assay office and they would pay us cash.

The guy we were in business was Walt Carrington, dad would split it dollar for dollar with him. We got to be good friends with them. We gave up on prospecting because we moved to Freeport in Clearfield in 1963. Dad got a job with Sperry Univac as a top dollar machinest. We also got to see a Sasquatch the summer of 1961 in August. And broad day light, within 100 feet and nothing blocking our view. Six people in Walt's family and four from the Shaw family. Brehon, Mike, dad (Dewis Shaw), and me (Scott Shaw). Mom was home taking care of Noel. Doyle was working on Uncle dicks farm in Emmett Idaho.

Here is a map you will have to increase size.

I was swimming in the trout tub when I felt like something was staring at me, then I called everyone to look at it. It was looking down and walking back and forth, then noticed us and turned to leave and was still looking down as it went back into the trees.

It was about 10 ft tall and had reddish brown hair... All ten of us saw it. It came out of the trees and looked like it was looking for something, it didn't notice us for almost a minute and a half. It turned and walked back into the trees after we got a good look at it. It was probably close to 400 lbs. Really buff. Gave us the chills looking at it.

You see one that close at daylight and nothing blocking your view, it will change your whole life. They are real I'll tell you.

There is no way as many sightings have been made that these aren't real. They are and they are much bigger than a 6 ft. Man.
