Sisters have nighttime sighting near Buckley.
Account
Late at night in August 1998, the witness and her sister were driving on a rural road when a tall hairy figure crossed the road in two steps in front of them. Both occupants saw it and immediately agreed on what they had seen. They described it as about seven to eight feet tall, covered in brownish hair with silvery tips, with very long arms, a hunched head with no visible face, and a hurried, determined walk. They drove quickly to a relative's house and later recounted matching details.
