Tales of a large, hairy, manlike creature (known as Bigfoot in the
USA and Sasquatch in Canada) living in remote areas of the North
American continent, including the Pikes Peak Region, have been
reported for many years.
Eyewitnesses describe the creature as being 6 to 8 feet tall,
walking upright on two legs, weighing 500-800 pounds and being
covered with hair.
Although a few individual scientists are studying this
phenomenon, the possible existence of this creature has largely
been ignored by mainstream science. Most of the serious
investigators are laymen, who check sighting reports and gather
data, hoping to prove that Bigfoot is real.
Several thousand people have claimed encounters with Bigfoot;
huge unexplained footprints have been found in the forests. But
here IS Bigfoot, right at the posted coords!
UPDATE 6-26-09 Change to offset: At the big toe of Bigfoot, go
about 10' NE (20 degrees magnetic) to find the container, a camoed
lock-lock. (This container and log were used previously in a
Terracache, so that's why the old scratchings in the log. I just
hate to discard anything.)
The Pikes Peak Toll Road is open year-round, weather
permitting.
