Hey if it is any consolation, I was goldpanning on the Nooksack river in Washington State with my stepbrother and his best friend in 1989 and I saw bigfoot. We were wayyy up in the hills on a trail off of old logging roads and at first I thought my brother was pranking me when he told me to look up cause bigfoot was across the river staring at me. That is until he said with more urgency that I should look up from sifting through my pan that I was squatted in front of. When I looked up, I slowly stood and froze. A dark hairy creature between 8 and 9 ft tall was about 40’ away across the river staring directly at me. ( I guage the height against my 6’5” husband whom I hadn’t yet met. I just stood staring for about two minutes then turned and walked away like a person taking huge strides into the woods
