π Description
It's been about 6 or 7 years and the area has grown where this happened. I was camping at Lost Lake in Oregon and doing the usual hike around the area. I came to a little creek crossing and small ravine about 200 yds behind the local store and found myself gazing at what appeared to be a fallen tree with a broken stump about 6ft up and some odd features in it. Ex: Dark features that kind resembled eyes and arms coming across a leg. Like if you were to sit over your feet in a crouched position. It was about 3pm so the effects could have been from lighting and the trees. Either way I thought it looked cool and wanted to go get my camera. I placed a pile of rocks directly across from it and ran literaly and got my camera. Upon arriving back at the location, about 15 min later, I noticed my pyramid of rocks was knocked over and when I looked across the way there was nothing. No fallen tree, no branches and nothing worth taking a picture of. I searched around the area thinking I was looking from the wrong angle but the only thing right across the way could have in no way been what I was looking at. A few days later back in Portland, OR the news said that there had been a report of a Bigfoot in that area. I have never gone camping there again!

My friend and I were present but I left him out of the story because he played no part except for seeing it also.
