Sasquatch sighting in Iowa (1994)
Account
A cousin in seventh grade was jogging on a newly paved road toward the airport in the afternoon. A dark form crested a hill ahead that first looked like a car, then showed arms and a torso and stood fully upright. Frightened, the cousin sprinted home, glancing back to see it cross the road, drop into a ditch, and enter a cornfield, and later described long shaggy dark-red hair.
