Dear Myers Reece,
    I am one of those persons whom you refer to as having an active imagination.  On a summer day back in Aug ‘68 I came face to face with what I can only describe as the most frightening and butt ugly thing I have ever seen in my entire life.  This was so traumatizing that I had to consciously put this experience out of my mind in order to function and sleep at night without nightmares.  It took only forty years later to discover for myself that apparently this thing was a Big Foot.  I like millions of others thought this was the stuff of active imaginations in Washington and Oregon state.  This happened to me here in Bucks County, Pennsylvania.  Now just recently in the outskirts of a town in Northwestern PA (Johnsonburg, PA) in the Fall of ‘07 a hunter scouting out deer trails caught on a digital camera what can only be ascertained as an unidentified primate due to the proportions of its limbs.  Believe me, having seen one of these things puts you in a club you don’t want to be a part.  On one hand you are lucky enough to have witnessed an amazing phenomenonal creature and on the other you risk being ridiculed or worse carted off in a white jacket!  Put yourself in these mocasins and walk a mile!!  Like all the others I await the day when these volunteers on the expeditions can come away with absolutely undeniable proof.  Thanks for writing about this and bringing this into the light of the general public.  Signed,  A Biggie Witness.

i’m from montana, choteau to be exact and now live in oregon. when i was 18 i had a run in with what could only be described as a bigfoot in the mountains just west of choteau. got my feet stuck in the bigfoot ground and have been looking ever since! i’ve had some amazing encounters here in oregon and while there may be more sightings reported here in the PNW, i truley believe that montana has seen more than it’s share of evidence! i’ve talked to several people around choteau who have also had encounters but for whatever reason, decided not to report them. i will go toe to toe with anyone who says they dont exist! i’ve seen one! the white man has always demanded that things “unknown” provide a complete and easily filed answer for any questions he has for them when the native americans not only know but have always known these amazing creatures exist! it really is funny that we continue to see them yet remain divided on their existence!
