Witness spots sasquatch approaching camp near Warwoman Dell

22 February 2009 Night Clayton, Rabun County, Georgia 5 witnesses

Account

The witness was asleep in a tent when rocks struck the tent. He looked out and saw a large hair-covered figure in nearby brush staring at him, then shouted and woke his tent companion. In the morning the group found disturbed brush and stones beside both tents but no footprints, and left instead of staying another night.
