Bigfoot Society EP 251
Sasquatch sighting near Allegheny County (1967)
summer of nineteen sixty seven
Allegheny County, Pennsylvania
Account
The witness, then eleven, was walking down a gas-line trail into a hollow when a large hairy figure came out of the woods and crossed the trail. It stopped and looked at her without acting aggressive, then continued into brush on the other side. She had no prior knowledge of Bigfoot and remembered the encounter for decades.
