First-hand Bigfoot Society EP 972

Sasquatch sighting near Harrison, British Columbia (2017)

January 2017 late afternoon into evening Harrison, British Columbia 4 witnesses

Account

The witness traveled with two companions to a gated park entrance in the late afternoon and watched a very large dark figure peer from behind trees on the ridge above, raising an arm after one companion waved. After a local researcher arrived with a thermal camera, the group recorded the figure moving between trees and a boulder while watching them. The next day they found and cast three large human-like tracks where the figure had moved.
