Account
The witness was riding a personal watercraft up the Pit River arm of Shasta Lake in July. While rounding a turn, the witness saw a large hairy head with eyes about 20 feet from shore staring at them. After a few seconds the head submerged leaving a ripple, and the witness circled and searched the area but found no further sign.
