I think this is the report of which you remembered:   https://www.bfro.net/GDB/show_report.asp?id=50124  

The following 'coincidence' always fascinated me.  In a nutshell, 'On June 24, 1947, pilot Kenneth Arnold saw what he described as a string of nine shiny unidentified flying objects flying past Mount Rainier at speeds that he estimated to be at least 1,200 miles per hour.'  '<This> sighting garnered nationwide news coverage and is credited with being the first of the modern era of UFO sightings, including numerous reported sightings over the next two to three weeks.'  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenneth_Arnold_UFO_sighting   Mr. Arnold landed his plane at Yakima, Washington.  And, as you probably know, Yakima is 'a core hub of Bigfoot history and the hometown of Bob Gimlin and the late Roger Patterson.'  Yakima has a 'unique status as a "ground zero" for Bigfoot enthusiasts and Native American Sasquatch legends.'  None of that was directly caused by Mr. Arnold's UFO sighting, but 'Science' might want to at least wonder if there could be a connection. https://www.google.com/search?q=yakima%2Cwa+bigfoot&oq=yakima%2Cwa+bigfoot&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIICAEQABgWGB4yCAgCEAAYFhgeMggIAxAAGBYYHjIICAQQABgWGB4yCggFEAAYgAQYogQyCggGEAAYgAQYogTSAQkyODQ3OGowajeoAgCwAgA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8   Mike Gold is spot-on when he indicates that the often extreme and even sometimes confrontational push back to extraordinary reports and to the paranormal is the antithesis of what our Scientists and our Governments should be doing.    

Just look at our closest extinct cousin. Shorter. Way more robust.   Now imagine something still bipedal but even larger and more robust. Would love to know more about Denisovans. They are truly a species that is in the right place at the right time to cross the land bridge before Homo Sapiens. Or it’s not closely related to us at all. It’s coming out of left field.   Anyhow I thought Darden could put some perspective into supposed Sasquatch strength.

Gimlin talked about the Bulk.     Last time I was in St. Liois Zoo I spent about 30 min just watching a great ape who was just eating.  This was the outside area of an indoor-outdoor enclosure.   I was struck by just how Massive this thing looked.   Even at a distance I knew not to mess with it.     Makes me wonder If I was to asked the next 100 people how tall the gorilla was if they would say, "7 or 8 feet"    It SEEMED big, thus tall.    Average gorilla is 5' 7'' tall.   Not taller than this famous 6-footer....
