About two miles in we turned onto a logging rd. We stopped and went walking around. We smelled a bad odor where some standing water was . We also noticed a twisted branch nothing a bear could do.Then i heard some noises up the cliff area , so i got my binoculars out to look ,not 25 ft. away from me between two huge pine trees i saw a massive copper colored standing bi-pedal being in front of me. I know it wasn't a bear. I grabbed my then seven year old and ran to the car .I told my husband and two other kids to hurry and get in the car and go. We were all scared and caught off guard. the week before memorial weekend 2008,my family and i went to cat creek area in Amador county . off of hwy. 88 just past Hams station.We crossed Stanilaus river on cat creek rd.

It was maybe 10 FT in distance. We really got a GOOD look at this thing closely and clearly so when the Hwy Patrol suggested we perhaps saw a BEAR I almost laughed. BTW, the date we saw it was on Dec 4th 2009, 10pm approx. just a day before a big change in weather for the worse with freezing conditions. That is perhaps IMHO why the creature was willing to risk being seen in order to get to some safe haven it knows in the area. And also it looks amazingly like many of the videos I've seen (ie. height, black in color. It had long fur almost as long as an orangutan, and it was almost shiney black in our high beams). I am a skeptical person and never really had a strong opinion one way or another to the bigfoot legend. BTW, the way this creature looked and moved I just don't think a man in a suit would be able to pull it off. And now that I know another person has seen one in the same area within recent yrs, I must count myself among the believers. As a resident of Volcano, my eyes will always be peeled for glimpses of sasquatches as I drive down the road at night. My wife (co-witness) corrected me on the distance.

As we stopped and almost hit it with our SUV just below Hale on Shake Ridge. 3 of us saw it close no more than 25 ft or so in our headlights. It moved very quickly without running up an embankment covered with pine trees. Estimated height was 7 ft or so. Remarkable, looked like a large Chimp but more long proportioned, not barrel chested (maybe a female?). We saw it (or one) too in the same general area!
