Incident #1001106
Silver Lake, Lake Cty, Oregon
Jul 1991
Account
Informant told Ray Crowe that his brother worked on a road crew in Wyerhauser holdings Southwest of the Thompson Reservoir where big footprints had been showing up around the work area for weeks. Operating a bulldozer one day he heard a loud whistling and looked to see a Bigfoot standing on top of a huge pile of stumps, rocks etc. he had scraped up beside the right of way. It was making motions he interpreted as "get out of my forest." He hit his air horn and it screamed, turned and walked away, looking disgustedly back over its shoulder.
