A Fox 21 news segment explores Sasquatch sightings in the Pikes Peak region of Colorado, featuring Leon Drew, a local man who claims to have had two major encounters. Drew describes spotting a 6-foot tall black figure crossing the road in front of his Jeep five years ago, and later encountering a 7.5-foot tall, 400-600 pound female Sasquatch with a young one near Creek on Memorial Day weekend 2012. The segment also covers evidence collection efforts, including searching for footprints, tree breaks, and scat in the woods near the Crags. Drew notes that sightings in the area date back centuries, with Native Americans referring to them as "the woods people." The Pikes Peak region is described as ideal Sasquatch habitat due to abundant food and water sources, as well as isolated areas. The segment teases a follow-up story about how the Waldo Canyon fire may have impacted local Sasquatch populations.
