Trucker couple report daytime road-crossing sighting near Sula

Fall 2005 about 7-8pm Conner, Ravalli County, Montana 2 witnesses

Account

A truck driver and a companion driving south on a highway in Montana reported seeing a large hairy upright figure sprint across the road about 40 feet ahead. The figure crossed in three or four steps and dropped into brush by a river after only a few seconds. Both occupants said they saw it plainly and were certain it was neither a bear nor a person.
