Daylight sighting by mother and daughter at the Illinois River outside Cave Junction
Account
The witness and her daughter stopped at a park outside Cave Junction in winter and walked down to the river. The witness noticed a very large dark human-like figure wading in the river at a distance, appearing to look down and move toward them. After the figure looked up, the witness panicked, yelled to run, and they fled to the car and drove back toward town.
