During a period of intense UFO activity and mysterious cattle mutilations in the area, a 16-year-old local youth was looking out of his second-floor window, which had a good view of the pasture on the East side of the house, when he saw a tall, furry creature coming to the pasture, coming from the South. 

He said the creature walked with long strides and its arms moved back and forth like a human's. The creature had no neck, but it could turn its head and seemed to look around. With the exception of his face, he was completely covered with brown or black hair that was an inch to an inch long. 

He could not describe the face, but said that the forehead protruded and then rose up to the rounded head. The nose looked drawn in. He didn't notice the ears.

When the creature moved, it walked very smoothly, not bending, and it didn't seem to bend its knees much. The creature's back seemed to descend directly below the buttocks, without a bend in the lower back. The young man estimated the creature's height at eight feet (2.4 m). 

The boy watched as the creature continued walking until it was directly to the East of the house, when a second hairy creature joined it. 

The second was about a head shorter than the first, but the same width and color. At that moment, the larger creature bent down and picked up something dark in color, "the size of a bale of hay." Something was falling from the ends of what looked like a piece of dark plastic.

The larger creature passed the item to the smaller creature that was carrying it. Then the larger, hairy creature headed straight for the house.

When it was within 100 feet (30 m) from the house, he looked directly at the window that the boy was watching. The boy jumped down to Wake his father, and the two returned to the window no more than two minutes later, but when they looked out, the strange creatures were gone. Later, strange footprints were found in the pasture. The boy was very shocked after the meeting.

Summary: During a period of heavy UFO activity and mysterious cattle mutilations in the area a 16-year old local youth was looking out his second story window, which provided a good view of the pasture to the east side of the house when he saw a tall, hairy creature walking in the pasture, coming from the south. He said the creature was taking long strides and his arms moved back and forth as a person’s would. The creature did not appear to have a neck but it was capable of turning its head and it appeared to be looking around. Except for its face, it was covered entirely with brown or black hair about an inch to an inch a half long. They youth was unable to describe the face, but said the forehead protruded out then upward to a rounded head. The nose looked pushed in. He didn’t notice any ears. When the creature moved, it walked very smoothly without stooping and id not appear to bend its knees much. The creature’s back seemed to go straight down to below the buttocks, without any curve at the small of the back. The youth estimated the creature’s height at eight feet. As the boy watched the creature kept walking until it was directly east of the house, at which time a second hairy creature joined it. The second one was about a head shorter than the first, but just as wide and the color was the same. At this point the larger creature reached down and picked up something dark colored, “about the size of a bale of hay.” Something was flapping from the ends of the object, which looked similar to a piece of dark plastic. The larger creature handed the object to the smaller creature, which carried it. The larger hairy creature then started walking straight toward the house. When it was within 100 feet of the house, it looked directly toward the window where the boy was watching. The boy vaulted downstairs to wake his father and the two returned to the window in not more than two minutes, but when they looked out the strange creatures were gone. Later on strange tracks were found on the pasture. They boy was extremely shaken after the encounter. (I included this case because it seems to deviate from your “routine” Bigfoot sighting report).
