When I was just a kid, I read a book about Bigfoot encounters in the Cascades. One couple recounted strange noises they would hear in the woods behind their house and how they got more frequent and closer. They had dogs and the dogs became so frightened by whatever it was that they would not go outside after dark. Then one evening the wife was washing dishes in the kitchen sink and looked up to see a Bigfoot looking at her through the kitchen window about a foot in front of her. I know that is all BS but it still gives me the creeps to think about it. Being in the Idaho backcountry alone at night isn't a great time to recall that story!
