Park County, home to the Sasquatch Outpost in Bailey, leads the state with 13 reports in the BFRO database.

According to the Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization, the most recent Park County encounter happened in August 2018, though it wasn’t added to the database until February 2020.

The county with the second-most alleged Bigfoot sightings in Colorado is Teller. In case you’re not familiar, Teller County is located just east of Park County and shares a border with El Paso County as well. Teller County has nine reports.

There are numerous counties in Colorado that have reported a total of eight Bigfoot reports over the years, including Lake County, which is home to Leadville, Larimer County, which is home to Fort Collins, and Conejos County, which is located on the state’s southern border that is shared with New Mexico.

Other counties that have reported numerous Bigfoot reports over the years include El Paso, which has seen seven Bigfoot encounters, and Eagle, which has seen six. Summit, Routt, Pitkin, and Hinsdale counties, with five apiece. Hinsdale has the freshest report in Colorado: a driver says they spotted one in broad daylight along Highway 149 near Lake City in summer 2026.

So what about the Western Slope? Mesa County has just two reports in the database, Moffat has three, and Delta, Montrose, and Rio Blanco have one each. Garfield County has zero. Statewide, Colorado has 132 reports in all.
