I saw one between Nucla and Naturita coming home to grand Junction. It ran in the road waving its arms. I was in a work truck and slowed down and went around. It was around midnight. I didn't tell many people but the ones I did don't believe. 30 years ago. Still clear memory. Colorado.

Hi Jennifer. This is in an area we search for the creature a few times a year and so is of interest for sure
Jennifer continues
On the road between Nucla and Naturita around midnight i slowed down i thought it was someone needing help when i was almost stopped it ran towards the truck waving both arms.
I panicked and sped around him and drove like 5 miles fast and got to pee outside right by the truck cuz i was really scared. I still feel kinda bad thinking he needed help and i sped away. I dont know.
RMSO asks
Thank you for details.. Were you able to tell what color it was or estimate its height or width?
Jennifer responds
The hair was lighter brown that I expected. The face looked frantic. Not like human but also like us .big, real large and running toward me fast. The road was completely dark but it was in my lights. I had to go around it into the other lane. I really almost peed my pants I was so surprised.
RMSO continues
Appreciate the description you recall.. Understand how you would have felt.. A guy had to go around a bigfoot walking in the center of the road in Ogden Canyon Utah during a January rainstorm a few years ago at night.. He thought is was someone with a fur coat on until he got really close & could see it was a large bigfoot covered in hair from head to toe...
Even though these creatures are rare and elusive they sometimes have off days and do things you would not expect. Out of character and lead to some of these scary encounters..
