Sasquatch sighting (1979)
Account
A twelve-year-old sleeping in his parents' motorhome heard tapping and banging on the outside and pulled the window curtain to catch other children he blamed. Instead he found himself face to face with a huge hairy human-like face filling most of the window. The two stared for about thirty seconds before the shade fell and he lay frozen, keeping the story to himself for decades.
