For years, there have been sightings of Bigfoot, but either nothing was caught on camera, the footage was too grainy to see anything, or it was a hoax. Well now, it seems that the elusive Sasquatch might have shown up on Google Earth.

As the app's satellites photographed the wooded forests of Western Colorado, they captured an image of what could be the oversized ape-like creature. The picture was posted to Reddit's Bigfoot forum with the caption, "Is it a bear? A puddle? A hiker without gear? Impossible to say for certain but the darker areas of the subject align with the shadows of other objects nearby." The post also points out that whatever is in the picture is seven to seven-and-a-half feet tall.

Adding to the eerie pic, a hiker who said they are familiar with the area commented. He explained that the region is known as the Uncompahgre Plateau and stated, "There was one section on that loop hike that sometimes gave me the willies in a vague and undefinable way, and at least one other person I know said the same thing about that area. I don't know about the image, but I do know that the Uncompahgre Plateau is big, rugged, and at least POTENTIALLY squatchy."

Others aren't so sure it is Bigfoot, with one claiming to have found other photos of the area that show this is just water in the ground or "the start of a lake."
