A family traveling home after Christmas, see a Bigfoot cross in front of them.
Account
The witness was driving east with children at about 8 p.m. after a Christmas family visit. The witness and a daughter watched a large dark bulky figure with long arms run across the highway and up a high snowbank, disappearing within about 3 seconds. The witness judged it too tall and fast to be a person based on the snow depth compared to the truck height.
