Sasquatch sighting (1976)
Account
Six students sent on a map-and-compass exercise became lost in dense forest. They smelled something like something dead, heard heavy thudding footsteps and grunts, and saw a very tall figure swaying behind a tree about thirty yards away, with limb-breaking sounds to the side. They fled to a road and got a ride back to camp.
