First-hand Bigfoot Society EP 297

Sasquatch sighting in California (2020)

2020–2021 night into morning over multiple days California 1 witness

Account

The witness camped alone for weeks in winter at a familiar saddleback camp in the San Gabriels. Over multiple nights something circled his tent until dawn, later kicked out his fire, then confronted him in a clearing and charged. He fled to his car, where it struck and shook the vehicle before he struck its thigh with a camping axe and drove away.
