Sasquatch sighting in Michigan (1977)
Account
The witness, then a child spending unsupervised summer days in the woods behind home, stumbled upon a hair-covered figure crouched and apparently foraging. The figure stood upright on two legs, turned to stare at the witness with a human-like ancient face, then turned and walked toward the river while the witness fled home. The encounter left the witness frightened and was followed by a distressing dream that night.
