Wellington, Utah Encounter 1974

Dirt Road To Mounds, Where Bigfoot Was Seen

     A resident of Price, Utah, who is the owner of a very successful business here locally, told me of an encounter that she and a friend, had with a Bigfoot type animal back in 1974, on the east side of Wellington, UT. At her request, her identity will remain anonymous. This is her story :

     Growing up in Wellington, UT, Mary had many friends and on one sunny weekend in the summer of 1974, Mary and a friend of hers left early in the morning to go for a walk towards Mounds, along a dirt road following the Price River. When they got past the coal washer plant, they noticed what looked like a big man standing on top of a nearby hill. Thinking it was only another hiker, they kept on proceeding. When they got closer, they seen that it wasn't another hiker, but what looked like a big hairy tall animal, standing like a human on two legs. They stopped and stood there staring at it. This animal never moved nor made any kind of a sound, all the time they watched it. They soon decided to go back to Wellington and not to go any further.  Turning around, they hurried back towards Wellington.
