Colorado 1987 - Bigfoot Sighted Near Green Mountain Falls - Tirademan!

[Trogluddite]

Okay.  This gets interesting.  I drove to and from work at Fort Carson everyday in the early 1990s and passed the Bigfoot statue that now adorns Green Mountain Falls and thought ... not a darn thing about Bigfoot.  So I was searching for whatever Tirademan found and could not identify any local (Colorado) newspaper articles on the topic.  However, I found the following TV Guide entry for March 1987.  

 

 

Which is relevant because the articles I did find about the Green Mountain Falls (CO) Bigfoot were all in Nebraska newspapers.  These articles, like this November 2, 1988 article from the Omaha (NE) World-Herald were focused on Nebraska researchers traveling to Colorado to research the sightings which happened in March 1987.  In 1989, researchers claim to have found hair left by Bigfoot which identified as primate; that story is from the Rapid City (SD) Journal's April 11, 1989 edition.
