I was 14 at the time of this sighting.
My friends and I use to play in the woods behind my house constantly. I more so than anyone else spent alot of time there. I was walking down the path (very small trail) when I saw someone walking at a 90 degree angle away from me down the joining path. I assumed at the time that it was one of the older boys in the area just walking down the path. When I yelled the “person” just ignored me and kept on going. When I got to the other path I ran down to catch up but the person was gone. I chalked it up to just one of the older boys. Now after twenty seven years still recall those woods like the back of my hand, I remember the bushes that lined the paths were at least 6′ high and I saw shoulder and a head above these so that would put the “person” at least 7′ tall, didn’t cross my mind at the time. plus the coloration of the person and what I now assume was hair. Thinking back there was always TEE-PEE formations of trees bent trees and limb breaks, I never thought of those as important then but with my research here in Colorado and with others research, I believe what I saw was a Bigfoot.
