Shocking Footage Captured in Iowa's Loess Hills

For the past several years, there are been wild rumors circulating throughout the Loess Hills that suggest a hairy hominid known to many as Bigfoot or Sasquatch. Some have even gone as far as coining the cryptid "Loessy the Sasquatch" as numerous sightings have been reported. The reports from southwestern Iowa have been met with doubt, even scorn. However, this weekend Golden Hills was present with irrefutably evidence that something is lurking in the Loess Hills of western Iowa.

The first footage came from an anonymous tipster. They were enjoying Pottawattamie County's Arrowhead Park when a large, hairy figure walked nonchalantly through the timber. The figure did not appear threatening, as it walked right past the person recording the footage. It appeared that the figure had no interest in the person.

Shortly after receiving the videos from Arrowhead Park, Golden Hills received footage from Fremont County in southwestern Iowa. The first was taken near Green Hollow Cemetery. The creature crossed a gravel road, looking both ways for oncoming traffic, before continuing west into the dense timber. The second clip was taken at Waubonsie State Park. The shocking video shows that the Bigfoot has no concern about being seen in plain view. Park manager Matt Moles declined to comment when asked by Golden Hills staff if park visitors and campers are safe.

Harrison County also had reports of the same creature. The brazenness of the creature's behavior was on full display in another anonymous video we received recently. Perhaps the Sasquatch was interested in learning about the Loess Hills at the new Willow Lake Nature Center near Woodbine.

If you have seen Bigfoot/Sasquatch, please send us any photos of videos of the encounter. Like all wildlife, maintain a safe distance of at least 50-100 yards. If the creature approaches you, wave your arms and make noise. If that fails, run as fast as you can. If you are with friends of family, make sure you are not the slowest person in your group.
