OBSERVED: In summer of 2009, I believe I saw something that to me, was a Bigfoot. I was down at deep creek near Lake Arrowhead, Ca and I spotted something moving, very tall, standing atop a huge boulder about a mile away. I got a picture of it, but it was so far away that its a terrible photo. Everyone with me saw it, but specualted that it was just a person. Now this area where the "thing" was was very far away, so Im still not sure what I saw, but that exact spot was way out in the middle of nowhere.

OTHER WITNESSES: probably 5 or so.

TIME AND CONDITIONS: Around noon. It was a hot day.

ENVIRONMENT: Desert/mountain area.

Follow-up investigation report:

Facebook messaged with witness. Obtained details identical to the original sighting report.

No unusual smells or sound were reported during the time of the sighting.

Viewing the photo, the witness is correct about the figure standing on the rock being blurry. There is nothing in the photograph to provide scale to estimate the size. The photo is also too distant and blurry to identify any notable features.

The stance and position of the figure in the photograph is consistent however with other photographs and reports where a Sasquatch has been witnessed standing in an area which would provide a view of its surroundings.

Witness is willing to return to the sighting location to attempt to recreate the photo and do some size estimates. Unfortunately we'll have to wait due to weather conditions but the return trip has been tentatively scheduled for spring.
