LOCATION:
New Mexico, San
Juan County, Near
Waterflow
and another incident near Hogback Mountain
...other Lukachukai, Arizona, Apache County
TERRAIN:
River bottom
OBSERVED:
I remember as a child at around age 6-7 that
we lived behind my
uncle
XXX and aunt XXX XXX yard, in XXX, N.M. Often my sisters and I would
play in the old salvaged cars which extended to the river bottom.
Sometimes my father and I would hunt geese and shoot pistols at the old
cars on the river bottom. Well here is what I remember.
One
day I ventured down to the rivers edge...I remember the XXXXXXX
River
branched off and I was on a tributary which was extremely low
and
was only about 2 feet deep. I was trying to spear/gig these huge
carp
and
frogs) in the shallows when I heard this grunting noise along the
edge
of the river on the other side. There are these tall willow like
bushes
which were moving. At first I thought it might be a pack of wild
dogs which are common along the river. So I was scared and ran home.
I didn't tell my mom because she would have gotten mad at me for being
down by the river (it was off limits).
About
every other week my cousin would visit with his mother (From
30 miles away) to visit my aunts place. Me and my cousin snuck down
to the river and when we came upon the river (around 9:00am) we saw a creature
(what I now believe to be a bigfoot) down in the shallows swatting trying
to catch these carp. The second we saw it we
ran
like crazy back to my trailer. We went and told my uncle about what
we saw but he said it was probably a drunk Indian. An Indian reservation
is on the other side of the river. That is all I remember of this incident.
Also
I heard another story from an Indian that worked near Hogback mountain).
He told me in 1987 that he and some Indians had been drinking at the XXX
Bar many years earlier (which is now abandoned), that he and some of his
drinking buddies would come from XXXXXX to XXX to drink. And one
day they were down on the river drinking/talking and they said they saw
a "skinwalker" a coyote man..covered in brown hair on the other side of
the river. They said he was whistling and moving it's arms up and
down. They said they got down into some brush and were scared that
skin
walker would steal their soul.
I
should also make a note that some friends I have out in XXX Arizona told
me some stories of a wild man atop the Lukachuki mountains/Chuska mountians.
XX
XXXX of Lukichuki (the family throws an annual memorial pow wow for there
deceased
son. XX XXXXX told me of his grandmother's encounter with the
wild beast. She said it was in a pinon tree and jumped down
and tried to steal one of her sheep. She said that something would
always steal her sheep in the summers when she'd take them into the mountains.
She didn't speak English but the story was related to me by her grandson.
He said that it would follow her on occasions but would stay out of sight.
ACTIVITIES
OF WITNESS(ES): Various
DESCRIPTION
OF CREATURE: It was squatting down
in the shallows and it's forearms and feet/calves were wet, the hair was
brownish red. I'd approximate it was at
about
60 yards. I came across a sighting in the same area between
Kirtland
and waterflow, New Mexico. Also there was an incident of a women
that
lived in Farmington some 16 miles away to the east...that had her
trailer
nearly destroyed by some creature. The authorities blamed the
incident
on mountian lion. This incident occured in the late 70-early
80's.
I remember it because we would go to the Sheriff's Posse Rodeo and a
sheriff
told my father about the incident.
OTHER
NOTES: I remember that
it was dead quite and it was perfectly
quite...like
the way it is here in Oklahoma before a severe storm/tornado
occurs.
OTHER
OTHER NOTES: There is a junk
yard very close to this area where the
Indians
dump their trash...it's directly on the west side of XXXX mountain,
right
off the highway. There are a lot of abandoned caves in this
area
and each cave I remember exploring had lots of dead bones in
it.
Perhaps it was the mountain lions in the area dragging their kill
into
the caves. I also remember that in the early 1980s my uncle
which
lives at the base of XXXX mountain told me that three helicopters
were
installing these large boxes ontop XXXX mountain. A prominant
family
owns a nice home atop a hill directly below the mountain...Mr. XXXXX
told
my aunt that they told him that they were mountain lion traps.
They
looked like large out houses.
So
in conclusion there is a slaughter house and a garbage
dump
in XXXXX. My encounter occured between these two areas.
Maybe
the
creatures were drawn into the area by these smells? The area to the
north
and south are rugged but along the river (East to west) it's a lush
farm
valley. If you go north about 40 miles you're in the mountains.
If
you go south it's desert.
