BFRO #9253: Two sightings by Cree man north of The Pas

📍 Location

📝 Description

I was out moose hunting in September of 2002 north of The Pas,Manitoba approximately 15 miles away and well off the main highway 10 heading north west. I was in my tree stand that i had built in the month of August and is about 13 feet off the ground facing a small river and a large clearing. The incident happened at about 10:00 pm when the light is just above the tree line and can't see much of the ground, it started when i called in a bull moose, the moose was no more then 200 yards away from me and moving toward the clearing. I heard somthing to my left and walking toward the moose. This thing was walking fast as it only took it about a few seconds to cross the clearing.The moose of course stopped grunting and took off very fast the opposite direction. I thought this was a bigger moose and was excited at the prospect of bagging a big bull moose. The sound of the steps came around along the bushline to my right after that and came closer to my stand. I got ready with my 30-06 british enfield and as the thing got about 50 yards fom me, my tree stand gave me up by making a small creeking sound when i moved a bit to get up from my chair. I seen this thing and it was'nt a moose but a sasquatch, still fairly young, it stood about 8-9 feet tall, judging it's mass probably weighing in the area of 320-350 lbs. When the boards on my stand creeked the sasquatch ducked behind some willow trees and that's where it stayed for the next 30-40 minutes observing me and I it. The sasquatch eventually made its way going toward the north east and i went on with my hunt. I eventually bagged a bull moose at about 4:00 am the next day and i had an experience i'll probably never forget. If this animal wanted to kill me it probably would have done it, but i feel that they are harmless if a person does'nt panic and start shooting it for nothing.
