In 2012, a video was released depicting a large black figure on a cliff at West Fork Mink Creek south of Pocatello.

Though the black mass only appears for a few seconds, it was enough to grab the attention of many Bigfoot researchers.

“It was quite intriguing because they saw a figure that walked into the cover of the trees once it realized it was being watched,” said Dr. Jeff Meldrum, an Idaho State University professor and a noted Bigfoot researcher.

One of the witnesses took a photo of a footprint in the snow. Researchers noted that this print was very similar to one that was found in 1967 close to where the infamous Patterson-Gimlin film was shot. This film, some Bigfoot scholars claim, depicts Bigfoot walking in a wooded area in California. Others claim the film depicts a guy in an ape suit.

Meldrum later investigated the West Fork of Mink Creek area. After an analysis, he discovered something interesting about the figure in the video.

“It had to be at least 7 or 7 1/2 feet tall,” he said.
