Woman recalls strange creature dashing across road north of Republic
Account
Two people driving south into Washington in the early afternoon saw a dark hair-covered animal dash across the highway from forest to forest. The witness described it as lean and long, moving partly on two legs and partly on four, with no visible pointed ears. The sighting lasted only moments and was first dismissed as an abnormal animal, only years later considered as possibly sasquatch.
