Sasquatch sighting in California (2010)

October 2010 around 10-11 o'clock in the morning California 3 witnesses

Account

The witness stayed with his young son on a multi-day group expedition and went to check a camera trap in the morning. The son ran ahead, collapsed and became unresponsive while the witness felt nausea, loss of focus, and a deep vibrational sound. The witness then saw a large dark hairy figure, fired shots to drive it off, heard it scream and get answered, and evacuated the son for medical care.
