A few years ago I remember reading about a Bigfoot been sighten when it came out of the woods somewhere in the Western US during a major wildfire. Supposedly it was attended to by firefighters dur to exterem burns. The information came from the firefighters who assited. I only read about 3x but after that nothing. Like I said it was a few years ago and I read about on the web. No sure if it was hoax or not but the way it was told I could see it happening.

I too heard about that....BUT, what I heard was more like: During wildfire, a strange manlike/ape creature came out of the woods all burned and seemingly in extreme pain..Said "creature" was tended by fire fighters until "black vehicles" arrived ushering said animal to an undisclosed location, never to be heard from again....Anyone hear that version?

also discussed on Crytomundo threads

here's one of the threads others under Battle Mountain complex fire in Nevada I would imagine

Just re-read this one (http://sasquatch-pg.net/sasquatch-recovered-fromfire.html), and the spelling alone would make me question this document and whoever wrote it. If you can't spell any better or don't care enough to check your spelling, well I don't much care to believe it.

Are you saying then that you wouldn't believe a Person outright who is illiterate that submitted a Sighting Report, regardless of any details they gave, but just because they couldn't in fact spell as well as other people can, you wouldn't even entertain the Report or much care to believe it ??

Just how from how far away does Class A stand for?

With regards to the BFRO, it's this..

Class A
Class A reports involve clear sightings in circumstances where misinterpretation or misidentification of other animals can be ruled out with greater confidence. For example, there are several footprint cases that are very well documented. These are considered Class A reports, because misidentification of common animals can be confidently ruled out, thus the potential for misinterpretation is very low.

I see your point Bobby, but yes, that's what I'm saying. If you're going to take the time to construct a document that you know people will be reading (which is the point of the doc) and put it on the Internet (or anywhere) you should take the time to do it correctly. And spelling correctly would be the least you should do. If you're Illiterate, then you get someone to help you do it right. And with the software on our PC's today, there's not many excuses for spelling Incorrectly. If you don't take enough pride in your work to do that, then how seriously should I take the document?!?

Let me clarify one thing, one maybe two misspelled words in a document is different than every paragraph having misspelled words in it. Anyone can make a mistake or two, but when it's obvious the writer just didn't care what it looked like, that tells me something about him/her, and it's not a 'good' thing.

I'm certainly not a great speller, or writer for that matter, and I make mistakes. But I certainly try to do it correctly, and that's the difference. It's not hard to tell the difference between someone who has just made some mistakes, and someone who just didn't care what it looked liked. If they don't care, then I doubt if I will. . .And let me also say that there is a difference between a post on a website, and posting a document that you want people to read and believe.

LOL, just my opinion Bobby. I respect yours and we'll probably just have to agree that we disagree my friend.

Gotcha I read more on the subject now I know that my encounter falls on the B category as it was only heard and not seen. Thanks for the info..

Most folks that are illiterate are also PC challenged, and if you don't know how to spell it how would you know it is wrong

If I am biased against a report it doesn't have anything to do with spelling. I like to use the smell test.

Glad to see that I had some of the facts right about this sighting. As for the spelling problems that were on the report well I have been writing reports for different things for a number of years and I misspell words even today. Just because someone did not spell check their reports does not make the report less creditable. When I was living up in Arizoan I had a few friends with the USFS and we had chats about the different fires and things that they did. It was from one of these B/S sessions that heard a clue about the sighting and then I did research online and found out more about the sighting. Having worked for a govermental agency I know that if your boss comes up to you and orders you to sign a "Keep Quiet orElse" paper you had better damn well sign it or your carrear is over and the life that you had was done. I would like to know more about this sighting as well as others like this. I am sure that somewhere there is someone who has proof and would give it out IF their names would be kept out of ANY discussion with authorites.
