(NewsNation) — A Colorado woman said she saw a massive Bigfoot "gliding" through the woods in late July, according to a post on the Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization's sightings database.
Lori Bowing said she was in the car with her husband, looking for wildlife near Lake City in Hinsdale County, when she saw what she described as a Bigfoot near the edge of the woods. She estimated the figure was between 7 feet and 9 feet tall based on the size of the surrounding trees.
"I saw this critter take 4-5 big gliding steps before it left my view due to the road curve," Bowing said. "Trust me when I say I am not a bigfoot believer, but after what I saw I sure in the hell am now!"

She added that the figure was dark, blackish brown, with long, hairy arms, and a head that was "kind of molded into the shoulders."
Her husband, Bill Bowing, said he was driving when his wife saw the creature and told him to stop the truck. He continued driving, but after determining she was serious, they returned to the area, got out of the car, and found one large "barefoot print."
"Although the print seemed small for the critter she described as about 7 or 9 feet tall," Bowing said, "there was no reason for that print to be where it was." He added that the couple went back the next day and found another print that was a similar size.

"I later began looking up stories of other sightings and they were just a perfect match," Bowing added. "I am as convinced as she is of what she saw."
