I would like to take a second or three to tell of a strange ordeal a young family went through one night in 1978 while hunting in the mountains above Fairview, Oregon. The story has been told to many people before; the encounter is one of the scariest Ive ever heard. The young couple in their late twenties were hunting deer on a mountainside called Moon Creek. Along with them were their two young twins about three years old.

Sometime before dusk the truck became hopelessly stuck in a deep rut from four wheelers. The family thought it possible to walk out to the main paved road called Moon Creek Road. Alan, the husband told me later that's when the trouble started around dusk.It seemed to them someone was following them on foot back a ways out of sight.

 They could hear branches crack and the definite sounds of heavy feet hitting the ground.The couple reached the pavement shortly after dark and began the 5 mile walk towards Farview road. Absolutely no traffic was on that road. Almost right away the couple knew someone was in back of them just out of reach following them down the road. In one area where the moon was shining on the ground the couple saw a huge looming figure like a giant man or ape walking behind them.

Alan yelled out several times to get some response from the figure but was not able to get a reply. The couple were for lack of words "terrified" by the shadow of that figure. Alan had brought his 30-30 with them and shot one bullet straight in the air. When the shot ended a great scream from just seemingly feet behind them rang out. Not a woman's scream but some kind of terrible low to high pitch howl.

 Alan knew whatever was following them was not human. He caught a glimpse of some type of big upright creature walking along the high bank of the road. He told me whatever that thing was had to be over eight feet tall. Alan told his wife to keep walking down the mountain and he would try to protect her and the kids from it coming any closer. Soon whatever it was turned off the road and over a steep cliff leaving them. They could hear the sound of branches breaking as the thing left.

They got to the first house near the entrance of Moon Creek and called a friend to come pick them up. The next day Alan got a friend to help retrieve the stuck pickup. When they arrived at the site the ground was covered with large footprints. The cooler had been taken out of the back and the contents scattered about.

This is how the story was told to me. Alan was killed in a logging accident years later on but my sister (his wife) still remembers that night on Moon Creek.

Thank you. What a wonderful sighting for us to read. I'm sure your sister and her husband were troubled with that sighting for a long time. ... LPN

A Photo for Marcy

I just now took this photo for you Marcy. Chris and I live in town, but from our front porch this is the view, looking over several housetops. Thank you, Marcy, for commenting and especially for commenting on the sloooow weekends. If you click on the photo you can get a larger version. On the tree at left you can see raindrops on the tips of the needles. ... Linda Newton-Perry

Perrys' Newspaper Column: "A Matter of Time"

Fall is here. Or it will be by the time this column appears in the local paper. There will be a few more nature lovers in the woods, hunting and simply enjoying the fall colors. Now that more people are aware that a bigfoot-type being is living in our forests, we expect more sightings. Yes, do please, be watching for this being. He probably knows when you are around. One sighting reported a bigfoot hugging a tree in an attempt to camouflage himself. So, do keep your cameras ready. Photos of this being will always be needed and welcome. It is very difficult to get a good clear photo of bigfoot in his habitat, the deep-shadowed forest.


When I first started writing a newspaper column on bigfoot, I made a paper-mache head of what I thought the being looked like. And, I pointblank from two, three feet photographed it. Even then, the features were not sharp or clear. For that reason, I repeat, bigfoot photos and videos of this being will be needed from the wild for who knows how long. An example of enjoying nature’s animals, and one we know exists, is observing a mother panda cuddling a tiny ten, twelve inch baby. I can never get enough of watching that. Wouldn’t you just adore seeing a bigfoot and its offspring?

It has been raining in Oregon. Rain means mud and the chance of finding a footprint of bigfoot increases. I do hope you are rewarded with a footprint sighting. And do share it with us on Bigfoot Ballyhoo (www.bigfootballyhoo.blogspot.com).

If you are a new reader to this column, I would like to remind you on the above mentioned blog, we are waiting for two important events. The first I’ll mention is Debbie of Rand Corp Group, a lawyer, is working to have the Columbus Day victim’s classified file opened to the public. The second event we are awaiting is the release of the ESP Team’s photos of Aug. 8, 2010. The team assures us the photos of bigfoot are clear and sharp. Do join us in our “wait.” And you can read about the team, ESP, as they went about their activities in capturing the photos on the accompanying blog, Bigfoot Premise. This blog is only accessible through Bigfoot Ballyhoo. Until next week

Often we are just simply PROUD of our readers: KIRK

Kirk has left a new comment on your post "It Just Seems Normal That ...":


As a Bigfoot believer I want to see the ESP photos too. But, I am certainly gonna wait until the team releases them on their own time. I have believed in Bigfoot for 60 years and find no reason to quit now. Somethings are well worth the wait. People seem to be unwilling to have patience these days.

Thanks for the great comment. This wait for the  ESP photos reminds me of waiting for the birth of a child. Oh my, it seems forever. ... Linda Newton-Perry

And after your done marching to the capital with all 20 people who are down for the same cause, be sure to write in every now and then to let us know how your coping with your 30 yr Federal prison sentence.


When Ali Baba and the nineteen dirt bags took out the World Trade Center, the American way died that very day. Along with the destruction of two breathtaking skyscrapers and the deaths of thousands, we as Americans lost a lot more then we know. Judging by what was written, your completely out of the loop. The Patriot Act was designed and put into play for things such as this. Suppression of information. Media blackout. No big court room drama. It would never happen like that. I can go on and on but I think you get the jist of my rant. Good Day.

One last thought. If you had written what you did prior to 9/11you would be on the money and couldn’t be more correct.

Several commenter (s) have expressed their opinions on the legality of showing photos in which were removed by federal authorities on Bigfoot. the law is clear on this. If a photo was confiscated and then another photo showed up on the web that person would be in violation of the primary order to suppress.Make no mistake here it would be considered illegal and the feds would have the right to prosecute and confiscate that photo. People seem to think the Patriot Act does not cover such things as Bigfoot but I can assure everyone it does. Why it does is because when the act was passed it covered anything to do with government reluctance to show evidence that prior to 9/11 was ordered to be classified. If you want to pursue this go ahead at your peril.
