Teens see creature in the woods while stuck in mud
Account
The witness was with a relative and a companion in a muddy logged area after freeing a stuck truck when they noticed a rotten-fish odor. The companion said he saw a sasquatch behind a brush pile and hurried to the truck. The witness then saw a dark-brown-haired human-like shape curled up like a mud pile with prominent bodybuilder-like shoulders. As they drove away quickly, the witness saw brush swinging as if the shape had run off.
