Because Bigfoot allegedly prefers the woods, it should come as no surprise that Colorado is known for so many sightings, especially compared to the flatter, hotter states that share a border with the Centennial State.

How Many Times Has Bigfoot Been Spotted in States that Border Colorado?

Of all of the states that border Colorado, Bigfoot has allegedly been spotted the most in Oklahoma, with a reported 118 sightings.

This figure is followed by 74 sightings in Utah, 50 sightings in Kansas, 44 sightings in New Mexico, 28 sightings in Wyoming, and a mere 18 Bigfoot sightings in Nebraska.
