Recent BIGFOOT VIDEO Recorded From Durango & Silverton, Colorado Narrow Gauge Train
The eyewitness stated:
"The location was just outside of Silverton, Colorado. We were riding on the Durango and Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad. The Bigfoot was very far away though, on a remote mountainside. Only a few of us saw it. The date and time of the sighting/recording was Sunday, October 8, 2023, at 3:22 PM local time."
You can observe the alleged Bigfoot walking for a short distance, then crouch down while watching the train. It is also seen moving its arm around its head, or possibly 'preening' itself?
The screenshots are difficult to focus on because of the quality of the cellphone and pixelation.
Previously, a 15-year-old photo allegedly showing Bigfoot walking through a field near Silverton, Colorado, gained a bit of attention back in April 2023.The photo resurfaced and was discussed on various social media sites. You can see the Durango and Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad in the background.
The photograph was taken in 2008. It shows a hairy, tall creature running along a river.
A local newspaper, the Silverton Standard & the Miner, reported a “Hunt for Bigfoot” event was held in the town in 2010.
NOTE: I originally argued that this photo was most likely a person wearing a dark hoodie and carrying a skateboard. The Silverton, Colorado area has been the subject of Bigfoot hoaxes in the past, including faked photographs and a few far-fetched sighting reports. In light of the new video, I am not sure what to think at this point. What are your thoughts? Lon

Many paranormal enthusiasts refer to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania as the most haunted town in the world. On July 1-3, 1863, the small farming community witnessed some of the worst death & destruction ever seen on the North American continent. Over 165 thousand men, from both armies, took part in the battle, with roughly one-third becoming casualties. More than seven thousand men died in the fighting, and a further 33 thousand were wounded. The carnage left an indelible mark on the locale & history that has endured for 160 years.
But Gettysburg is more than just a memorial to the people involved in that tragedy. It has become a drawing card for the unexplained and a gathering spot for supernatural energy that transcends beyond death. Modern life adds to the mystery of the location, be it cryptids, curses, unidentified aerial phenomena, or personal experiences.
