Dazed Bigfoot Crossed California Highway 101 During Fires
Today The Willets News reported there was a Bigfoot sighting on Highway 101 north of Willets near Shimmins Ridge Road during the Mendocino Lightning Complex fires last summer. Willets is a small town in Northern California between the San Francisco Bay Area and Eureka.
According to reporter Linda Williams, Chris LoPinto of Laytonville and at least one other driver saw the creature step into the southbound lane near a guardrail. It ran into the path of a small truck and caused LoPinto to brake hard. The truck, which was trying to pass LoPinto’s car, managed to avoid hitting the Bigfoot and continued on without stopping.
LoPinto said the Bigfoot ran upright on its legs until it got to the middle of the highway which was four lanes at that point. Then it leaned over and ran with its arms down the rest of the way, to safety. Bigfoot investigator Tom Yamarone told the reporter that the fact the Bigfoot used its arms to cross the second half of the freeway was highly unusual.
At that point some might think the creature was a bear, but LoPinto got a good look at the face – the Bigfoot was only 25 feet away.
The description:
Estimated at seven feet tall.
It was covered with hair.
The face was completely flat, without a protruding nose.
When it turned to look at LoPinto its neck was stiff so it turned its entire body.
Its face was yellow or gold like a ripe banana.
It had a smooth, shiny forehead with ridges and no eyebrows.
The eyes glowed red, possibly as a reflection from the car’s headlights.
It had thin lips.
It had a simian face.
It appeared to be suffering from heat and heavy smoke from the fire.
LoPinto filed reports with the Department of Fish and Game and with the Mendocino County Sheriff’s Department. At first he didn’t realize it was a Bigfoot. Eventually he got hold of Tom Yamarone to investigate.

Had a sighting in summer 2007 while motorcycling along the WV turnpike,thought for sure I was approaching a large bear but, when I was about 30yards away and passing by this creature sitting on the hillside, I could’nt beleive what I was seeing and to this day I want to beleive this was a black-bear but, its features was human-like just all covered in fur except for the face(no snout) I did blow the horn and wave and the creature seamed to become irritated by the facial expression it showed. The time was at sunset app.7pm

Josiah, how about spending six months in a Northern California forest. Maybe you could have your own encounter and that would convince you. Probably nothing else will.

“The face was yellow or gold like a ripe banana”.
That’s the first time I’ve ever read of a Biggies’ skin being that color.
