Sasquatch sighting in Alberta (1967)
Account
As an eleven-year-old the witness became hypothermic swimming a freezing river and drifted toward a grizzly fishing downstream. A loud roar came from the hillside and a large hairy biped carrying two large rocks ran to the river, causing the bear to flee. The witness exchanged mental communication with the figure before relatives arrived and the figure disappeared.
