Sasquatch sighting (1980)
Account
While panning for gold along a border river, one man bent to wash his hair and felt he was being watched with hostile intent. Across the river his cousin waved frantically, later saying a huge black animal the size of a buffalo had crept down the steep hill behind him. The animal froze when looked at, then slowly retreated uphill after noticing the second person.
