Sasquatch sighting by motorist 5 miles west of Ely
Account
The witness was driving westbound on a highway with family in the van when she saw a fur-covered bipedal figure very close to the road. The figure walked parallel to the highway and crossed a side road from ditch to ditch in a few seconds. She described long grey to brown wire-like hair and estimated its height around six feet. Family members in the vehicle did not see it, and she kept driving without turning back.
