A 7-Foot Figure Was Caught Walking Through the Brush

Colorado is home to stunning mountains, vast wilderness—and apparently, the occasional creature that shouldn't be there.

During a scenic train ride through the San Juan Mountains, a passenger looked out the window and spotted something unusual: a large humanoid figure, roughly 6 to 7 feet tall, striding across a clearing. But what made this sighting truly strange was what the figure did next.

It stopped… and squatted.

Not behind a tree. Not behind a rock. Just right there—in the open brush, crouched low, as if trying to disappear into the terrain. The whole thing was caught on camera, and the clip quickly made its way online, sparking an avalanche of speculation.

Was it Bigfoot? A hunter in a ghillie suit? Or something else entirely?

A Strange Shape in the Wild

The figure appears brownish-gray in color and bulky in build. Its gait is oddly smooth and upright—too fluid to be a bear, and too large to be a typical person. Witnesses say the proportions were off: long arms, broad chest, and a strangely confident stride before the squatting behavior.

The movement is what really raised eyebrows. After taking a few steps, the figure lowers itself straight down—like it knew it was being watched and wanted to vanish.

But if that’s the case… who—or what—was doing the thinking?

The Bigfoot Theory

Of course, the Bigfoot believers jumped in fast. This fits the classic profile: rural setting, unusual body shape, quick disappearance. Colorado has long been considered a Sasquatch hotspot, with dozens of sightings recorded over the years, especially in the Rockies and San Juan regions.

The squatting motion? That’s a behavior reported in other Bigfoot encounters. Witnesses have described the creature crouching or lying low to avoid being seen—blending into rocks, stumps, or brush.

And from this angle? If the figure hadn’t moved, no one on that train would have seen a thing.

Or Just a Guy in Camouflage?

Skeptics are calling it a hunter in a ghillie suit, pointing to hunting season and the figure’s possibly human proportions. But here’s the twist: the area was off-limits to most hunters due to terrain and access. There were no nearby trails. No camps. No known entry points that explain how someone could walk in unnoticed… or walk out.

And why squat in full view of a train if you’re trying to be stealthy?

That’s the part that sticks.

A Familiar Mystery

From the Patterson-Gimlin film to modern drone sightings, the image of a tall creature slipping into the wild is almost folkloric at this point. Whether real or misidentified, these moments stir something in us. Something ancient. Something wild.

So maybe this was just a guy playing a prank—or maybe, just maybe, it was a brush with a legend that’s really good at not being caught.
