A fascinating account of a possible Bigfoot encounter has been making the rounds on YouTube, and I couldn't resist sharing it with our community of fellow believers. The witness, Henry Mae, recounts his experience at Watkins Glen in 1962, where he had gone to enjoy the sports car road races. Henry, an avid sports car enthusiast and owner of a Jaguar drop head Coupe, was drawn to the area not just for the races, but also for the various activities and sights that Watkins Glen had to offer. From an organized archery area to a newly built golf course, there was no shortage of things to do. However, it was the Glen itself, a series of streams and falls meandering through a mile-long gorge, that caught Henry's attention. It was during one of his fishing trips along Catherine Creek that Henry had his encounter. He had been casting a fly in a pool below a small waterfall when he noticed movement in the bushes on the opposite side of the creek. A moment later, an enormous black fur-covered body appeared, standing diagonally to him. Despite the creature's ape-like appearance, Henry noted distinct differences that set it apart from a gorilla. One of the most intriguing details of Henry's account is his belief that the creature he saw was a female Bigfoot. He based this on the presence of breasts and the overall body shape. Henry also mentioned that the creature appeared nervous, swaying back and forth and playing with leaves on a branch. After several minutes, the creature turned and walked away, leaving Henry with a lasting impression of its human-like face. As a fellow Bigfoot believer, I find Henry's account captivating and well worth sharing with our Squatchable community. I encourage you to watch the video and form your own opinions on this fascinating encounter. Let's continue to support each other in our quest for understanding and respect for these incredible creatures.
