If you look at it as though it walking up the hill, then it could indeed be a humanoid shaped creature. You can see the ass and the arms and the whole of the back.
Intriguing.

Whatever this is, it is definitely walking UP the hill. I see exactly what you mean where it could be a bear going downhill, I can clearly see the 'face' and 'ears' and what-not. But in all honesty that incline is so steep that it would literally be falling ass-over-teacups straight down, it's practically vertical. So whatever it is, it must be going uphill.

I can VERY CLEARLY see buttocks, shoulders, back, a hunched over head, and some other things that would point to it being bigfoot, but again, it could be a moose or bear I suppose. Btw, a bear isn't going to walk on 2-legs up a 60 degree incline...

Anyway, I wish the original poster would state the reason why he only took 1, unless I missed it? He already professed that he should have taken other pictures of the spot without the creature there, but still, please answer why only 1 was taken? Whatever the reason may be. I'm on your side, I think that very well could be a shot of what we're all looking for and hoping it is. Stay out there and try to get some more pics!!


Edit: Few more comments: he said it walked to the left and disappeared. The tree coverage gets heavier over there so it makes sense as to why he couldn't see it or follow it anymore. That is pretty rugged terrain too, can't exactly go running after it.

Also I'm trying to make out why I don't see "it's" legs, whatever "it" may happen to be?

Also to comment on the other post about a "normal reaction" would be to take an easier route of escape. Well, it's easier route of escape would be going downhill, but straight back toward the photographer, so actually it's best escape would in fact be going left and getting out of view in the tree cover, even if it still uphill or crosshill.

It's a moose... you can clearly see the antlers...

I've seen them in the wild, plenty of people get killed around here on the highway. It is without a doubt, a moose....IMO

I've seen them in the wild, plenty of people get killed around here by moose on the highway... and they sure as hell scare you when you're trekkinh down a river or stream going fishing. I know a moose when I see one.

It is without a doubt, a moose.... in my opinion.

It's obvious. I immediately recognized it...

100% Moose

100% moose? Hate to break this to ya, that ain't no moose. I've seen moose in plenty during my days in Alaska, sorry not a moose.

I know I said earlier I didn't know what it was, still don't. But 'hunter, my man, you may be onto something here.

OMG i cant believe how lame this shot is.

First off we have a picture of a possible bigfoot which the supposed bigfoot is totally out of focus, not centred in the picutre, there are no more pictures taken of this supposed bigfoot and it's posted by someone who poster nickname is "TheUtahBigFootHunter" who has a avatar picture of a cartoon bigfoot.

I'm sorry but if i was a bigfoot hunter, and i thought i saw a supposed bigfoot, i would DEFINATELY be taking more photo's, Have the bigfoot centred in the photo. A clear picture of the beast which clearly is in a very tall tree and is probably not rushing away any time soon so lining up a clear picture shouldn't have been a hassle. Did i mention more photo's a centering the bigfoot and having the bigfoot clearly photographed?

I'm all for calling HOAX on this one.


My thoughts, Black bear up tree maybe?

Is there anyone who specializes in enlargements so we can get a better look?

After blowing it up fairly large it looks like it could be a bear climbing a tree. It's obvious that it's not on the ground at all but up high on a tree trunk.

Those look like antlers to me... if you look around the shot, I dont think you can spot another similar antler-like pattern anywhere else aside from where this figure is.

ok i've figured it out.....it's some kind of ape......you can see it clearly climbing up the tree....no bear can climb a tree that thin.....or that high....

ok.....look at the trunk coming from underneath the ape.....it is clearly climbing a tree.....and my guess is there a probebly at least a few apes of some type living arounf there

ok..well im not sure what you're looking at but i don't see any redness in the creature....simply brown.....though i just looked on wiki for what type animals mainly live in Utah and all i can find that fits is a bear.....

So.....there is a problem then...

one....bears can't climb trees like the one in the pic...

the thing......what ever it is.....is sitting on the tree and bending it with its weight...you should be able to see the bending of the trunk as it sits on it...

what it is i'm still not sure....the bear i saw on wiki was too small compared to the op's pic...so i'm now stumped...

The OP seems like a reasonable poster, so there's no cause for labeling it a hoax. At most, it's a mis-identification.

However, in my opinion, to be a credible BF-hunter, one should be extremely cautious before declaring anything as evidence of a BF, especially one's own photographs. Otherwise they run the risk of being considered fantasy-prone, seeing BF everywhere.

Then none of their evidence will be worth anything.
