Hikers near Eatonville surprise a sasquatch drinking from the river
Account
The witness and two companions were hiking to a waterfall when they noticed a strong musky odor. Near the middle fall they saw a large dark furred creature crouched over the river as if drinking. After staring at them briefly it made a throat-clearing sound and walked away bipedally into the trees, pausing to look back.
