LOCATION: Upton, Utah (North Summit County),
LOCATION 2: xxxxx road. Follow it up until you pass
the beginning of town.
Location is between Upton and a
Smaller town called Pineview. You have to follow
xx until you come to exit xx to
xxxxx, Utah. You go through xxxxxxx
until you pass the court house.
The next block you turn to your right. Follow
this road on up to the towns
I've mentioned. The area which I talk about is an
old mine they used to call
xxxxxxx Mine. It has been closed for some time. Back
in the late 80's they opened a
mine across the road from it or so I'm told. This
is private property. But a
couple of people I knew lived in xxxxxx Which is
very close. The lady told me
once that something big and dark colored would look in her windows at night, so
her and her husband lived in a motor home in their metal garage. She was pretty
shook up about it, being that they had just moved there and wanted to remodel
the house they had bought. This might be a another spot to check out.
TERRAIN: Hilly deciduous area, linking to Uintah
Forrest
OBSERVED: was eight almost nine
at the time. My father was the night
watchman for the mine, so we
lived there in two 36'foot camp trailers that he
had built a room to hook them
together. We used a wood stove to heat the
trailers. We also had an out
house due to the lack of plumbing hook ups. I guess
my cousin(Chris) probably seen
the thing first, because earlier that year around
middle August. His sister and
his self came up to spend a couple of weeks with
us which was nothing unusual in
its self. What happened while they were there
was. He wouldn't use the out
house. Instead he would crap in his pants or
urinate around where we lived.
It didn't sound right for a kid that was four and
potty-trained quite well. I ask
him why he did this and he told me there was a
monster around the out house. I
told my mom about his fear. She thought that he
might have been afraid that
something was going to pull him through the hole or
something like that, so she
took him down there ( it was behind our place kind
of off away from where we
lived)she explained that there was nothing in the out
house and that he wouldn't fall
in. He still kept doing it. I ask him if he
really was scared of the out
house and he told me no that he was afraid of the
monster he had seen by the out
house. I just chalked it up to a wild imagination
and forgot it. Then around in
October, my dad and I went hunting (it was deer
season)up on the mountain above
the mine. I had the feeling something was
watching us and following us,
but could not see anything. We came across a deer
that had been killed by
something. It had been mangled. My dad thought that it
could have been a cougar or
some wild animal like that.
That didn't feel right to me,
because the skull had been crushed.
I had never heard of something
like that before. Needless to say we went back
home in a hurry. My uncle, aunt
and cousins came up (same cousins as before)so
my uncle could hunt deer with
my dad.
My cousin(Chris) and I were on
our way to see the dead deer that we had seen
earlier( it wasn't that far
away maybe about 2 1/2 blocks away)when we heard the
most blood curtling scream I
had ever heard. The scream was like nothing like we
had ever heard. It started like
a deep gutteral growl and went up to a high
pitched scream.It scared the
crap out of us. We went back and told everyone
about it but they just said it
was the wind. I thought that was strange, because
there hadn't been a wind. Later
that same year, around the middle of September.
My mom and I were leaving to go
visit my grandma. I had just stepped out of the
door and was heading for the
car, When I froze with fear.
I was looking some kind of
creature eye to eye. It was tall, very tall about
8 feet or more in hight. It was
covered with dark brown hair. The hair was
maybe 3-4 inches long on its
head.
It had huge shoulders. The
thing was just huge. The body was well proportioned.
It had a distinct order. Kind
of a swampy, musty,sickening smell. The thing that
stands out most vividly in my
mind was the eyes. They weren't exactly brown but
kind of a deep green. They were
mesmerizing to say the least. I just stood there
I couldn't move. My mom came up
behind me and we walked slowly backwards to the
one trailer. We locked the door
and shut the curtains. My mom told me it was
just a guy in a monkey suit
trying to scare us. I could tell she didn't even
believe that story herself. We
tried the best we could to forget it. My mom
tried to get my dad to move
back to Coalville, but he wouldn't. He said it was
probably nothing but maybe a
bear. A few days later my mom went to my grandma's
in histerics, because she had
been sitting on her and my fathers bed putting on
makeup in a big mirror on the
wall by the bed and seen the refection of the same
creature looking in the window
watching her. My grandma clamed her down and she
went back home. My mother
suffered a nervous break down from the experience and
to this day will not go camping
or even picknicking in the woods. I put it out
of my mind. I guess children
have that kind of defense against trauma like that.
I never remembered anything
until I was 12 and my parents took me to see of all
things, Star Wars. Seeing the
hairy beast in the movie brought back all
recollection of my experience.
I suffered alot of nightmares, but finally came
to grips with hte fact that I
had seen this thing. I still go camping and
hiking, but I'm a little
cautious. I f I feel weird about a place, we leave.
Just for the record the
creature never hurt me or my mom. I think it was just
curious. From what I have
learned about Big Foot, there is no doubt in my mind
that I have seen one! I just
hope that people realize that these creatures are
not a harm to them and only
shot them with a camera!
Activities
of Witness:
Normal every day activities. Nothing out of the norm.
Description of Creature: Yes. One of my fathers coworkers
wife and kids had expressed to my
mother and I that something

and tried to cmfort her. There
was also the lady I have spoke about earlier. She
was my young womens taecher
from church.
