Motorists on highway to Mt. St. Helens see a Sasquatch standing in Toutle River
Account
The witness and the witness's young child were riding in a family van alongside a river after visiting a mountain when the witness noticed a large hairy biped standing in shallow water near the bank. The creature was facing away and looking down, allowing a clear daylight view of its size and musculature. The driver did not stop for filming and did not see the creature.
