Yamsay Mountain Sasquatch Tracks In Driving Snow
George writes RMSO
I am a native Oregonian born in Klamath Falls but have lived in Grants Pass since I was a year old. My Bigfoot experience ironically happened shortly after a earthquake rocked Southern Oregon. Klamath Falls suffered the worse repercussions of the earthquake and many mobile homes were rocked off the pier blocks. Many injuries occurred from the piers coming through the floor of the mobiles.
This earthquake showed how vulnerable and unprepared the state was to protecting lives and home should another quake occur. My good friend Tommy at this time made a special trip up from the bay area to make resident owners aware of the earthquake systems available that his father perfected and patented. They had installed many of these systems in the San Francisco / Oakland area where he lived. He ask if I wanted to ride to Klamath Falls with him and earn some extra money helping him bid potential jobs. He had already scheduled with homeowners who were interested in his product. I was to crawl under these units, take measurements with him and help with removing then replacing the vapor barrier while he went over details with the homeowner. We had 3 clients that day.
The last mobile we bid it started to snow and as we wrap up the job and reattached the vapor barrier underneath the mobile we were amazed how hard it was snowing and how fast it had accumulated as we crawled out from underneath the mobile.
Tommy drove his 2 wheel drive Toyota Hilux pickup on the trip and we had roadside snow but bare pavement on the way over the cascade mountains on highway 67 Lake Of The Woods route to Klamath Falls. But now at least 4 inches was on the ground in Klamath and we knew the mountain pass was going to be a white knuckle drive back over the Summit to Medford.
We had decided we best go to the Les Schwab we passed going to the job and get a set of tire chains as now it was white out conditions and chains surely would be required by the time we reach the summit if it kept snowing like it was. This stop proved to be in vain as Les Schwab was sold out when we got there and precious daylight would soon be gone.
Cold and tired we we decided against staying in a motel and maybe being snowbound in Klamath for a day or more we opted to go for it and waste no more time as we approached the summit a big rig jackknifed across both lanes and the State Police were turning everyone around and closed the highway.
As we gas up the truck we ask the service attendant if he knew of a motel close by we told him our situation and he informed us that the only way out of Klamath Falls was Brown Mountain Road a two lane road from Keno to Lake of the Woods. As daylight was fading we were riding the 4 wheel rigs tire tracks that were in front of us. We were amazed how well his truck was handling the packed snow. The blazer in front of us let off the accelerator when the vehicle ahead of him bogged down leaving them both unable to move up the road.
We both saw what was happening and Tommy said I'm passing them. Quickly he crossed into the other lane and by keeping the pedal to the metal we had made the summit and was elated we made it over the summit in his 2 wheel drive, while 4 wheel drives sat stranded in the ditch. As we headed downhill a pickup came up on us like a bat out of hell passed us and we were amazed at how hard it was snowing when we reached the end of Brown Mountain Road and stopped to turn on Lake of the Woods road that followed the lakeside till it merged into Highway 67. The truck ahead of us turned off Brown Mountain Road and his taillights faded fast in the white out conditions.
I told Tommy can you believe how fast the snow filled in his tracks, we couldn't even see the tracks the truck made. Then it happened, we both saw the huge footprints in the snow crossing from the lakeside of the road to the uphill side. In an amazed tone he ask me "did you see that?" I said "yeah" he said "should I stop?" I said "f*** no" he ask "what was that, those footprints were big Rory I should have stopped" I said " if you did we would have never got going again and been stranded" he laughed a can't believe what we just saw type of laugh and said "I'm glad we both saw it that's good enough for me" then he ask "you going to tell anybody" I said " no" he said " then I'm not either" and it was our secret for many years. I only talk about it if people ask if they believe in Bigfoot.
RMSO responds
Appreciate hearing from you.
What year, month or how long ago did you and your friend see these bigfoot tracks? Can you estimate the size or width of the tracks?
George responds
1993 the footprints at the time we thought to be at least over two of our shoe size put one in front of the other maybe a size 28 human I'm a size 11-1/2 myself and the width was 7 inches I'd have to guess.
I got the route wrong it was on dead Indian lake road just before highway 140 I said 167 but that was wrong highway 140 runs from Medford to Klamath Falls Oregon. Quake was in Late September of 93 but we bid the jobs the middle of November.
It is my thought if Bigfoot is real they could hole up in the Lava caves that surely speckle the cascade magmas on top. There is such a scenario that occurred at a place called The Natural Bridge the Rogue River flows through lava tubes disappears for about a 100 yards the flows out the other end. These tubes are huge and the result of growth timber covered in cooling magma on the fringe of the flow then many years later rotted in capsuled timber is forced out by running water leaving a hollow chamber in the igneous rock. This wood explain how the hide so well. Maybe the quake displaced them and they were forced to wander the landscape for easy food and a place to hole up.
RMSO responds
Two shoe sizes would put the tracks around 20 inches in length.
I agree they had to be fresh if it was actively snowing hard. Other wise they would have filled in.
Sounds like you two had missed seeing a large bigfoot by seconds or minutes.

Devils Hole Sasquatch
Growls at Hunter Near Pete's Cabin
BL writes RMSO
Hi, I had a sighting around 2016 near Mantua Utah. There appears to be enough activity and sightings around here that maybe it is possible to actually find one and get good footage. For the record, I don't necessarily believe that Bigfoot exists. I have gone to great lengths to explain away what I saw. I can give u location and story if u r interested.
RMSO responds
Hi BL, we have been searching around that location because of some bigfoot sightings reported in that area. Appreciate hearing from you.
Old abandoned shepherds cabin known as "Pete's Cabin"
BL writes
I don't want my name going public. I was sitting at Pete's cabin during the elk hunt, spotting for elk. I had been there for several hours and I was getting restless. I decided to leave the cabin and I started off down the ridge in an easterly direction. To an area that I have not been in before.
I had went about 100' when I got the feeling I was being watched. I stopped and turned, sure enough, there was a spike by two elk on a ridge 375 yards away. I sat down and watched the elk for a good amount of time, hoping a bigger one would show up. It was past mid-day at this point. I decided that I would take a shot at this elk. I steadied and took the only shot that was available, a head shot.
There was no indication that I had hit the elk but I went to check for blood and sign. When I got to the location where the elk had been I found no blood. I cut for sign for twenty minutes. I followed the elk tracks for about 50 feet, no blood. I took a break to think things over. I decided because of the time of day and my earlier shot that I probably blew everything out of there and I was going to call it a day. I planned to head down the west side of the ridge that I was on and take a trail that I know out the bottom to the main trail. I was no longer in hunting mode at this point.
I was just trudging along with my head down. I was going through scrub oak that had a good understory that was about six feet tall and the taller trees were about 15 feet tall. Out of the corner of my eye I detected movement. As if something was picking acorns out of the top of the taller trees. Like a left arm retracting down from the tree top, and a body turning and crouching.
I stopped and focused my attention to the area. I could see a large black shape obscured by the shorter oak it was about twenty feet away from me. The animal appeared to be crouching and I could see part of its head and one eye clearly. I was confused about what was going on. What I thought I was seeing don't exist yet there it was plain as day in front of me.
I watched the animal for a while. It didn't move, I didn't move. I got my wits about me and I decided to attempt to scare the animal. I yelled hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, while clapping. The animal responded with a growl. I tried scaring it several more times with the same response. The last growl seemed more threatening, so I decided that making distance was my best bet.
I turned and headed back up the ridge for aways then I headed west and circled around the area. I dropped down to the trail at the bottom and headed for the main trail. Once I hit the main trail I jogged for about a mile before slowing my pace. At this point it was just getting dark but still light enough that lighting was not needed. At some point i came into cell service and I got a text from my hunting buddy (he did not join me that day) so I called him and I told him the story. He didn't believe I word I said, other than I took a shot.
Now since I am a skeptic here is the explanation that i came up with of what I saw. I saw a moose standing on its hind legs browsing out of the top of the trees. When I came up it dropped down to its four legs and turned toward me. It growled at me when I attempted to scare it. But I was close enough to have saw moose ears. This explanation seems unlikely also.
This is a poor drawing of what I saw
RMSO responds
It appears to me that your sighting was across the canyon from Old Pete's Cabin? I actually filmed a moose there.. I doubt you thought it was a moose that you saw otherwise you would not have contacted us?
BL responds
Yes across front Pete's cabin. I have seen several moose in the area. And no I don't think it was a moose. With out using the word Bigfoot I can't explain what I saw.
RMSO
Appreciate hearing from you. We keep an eye on that area because of a history of sighting reports we have received along with reports sent to BFRO
