A young girl is in the car with her mother and uncle when a 9-foot-tall reddish-brown Bigfoot walks onto the highway and stops in front of the car, giving everyone a good look.

A reader forwarded the following account:

"I saw Bigfoot up close when I was little. I was 4 years old. My mom was taking my uncle to work in Durkee, Oregon. We were driving on old Highway 30 between Baker City and Durkee, Oregon.

It was 4:30 in the morning when we were passing a 100+-year-old orchard and my mom asked my uncle, "What is that, Tom?" My Uncle Tom said that he didn't know what that thing was. It was big and covered with fur from its head to its toes, except for on its face and its hands. The fur was reddish-brown. It was the biggest thing I've ever seen in my young life.

It stepped over a barbed wire fence that surrounded the orchard. It leaped across the ditch and walked in front of our car. It stops midstep not more than 5 feet in front of our car. It stood at least 9 feet tall and it just stood there staring at us for what seemed like an eternity.

Then suddenly it turned and took off running across the median between the old highway and the new Highway 84. It crossed Highway 84, across the median, and up a hill. It stopped at the top of the hill, turned around, took one last look at us, and then disappeared over the top of the hill." AC
