Sasquatch sighting in Montana (1997)
Account
The guest recounts a man he met while listening to a Bigfoot program who said that while hiking in Glacier National Park in the late 1990s he encountered a massive black gorilla-like creature with a domed head, small ears, black almond eyes, and a misaligned jaw. The man was so frightened he soiled himself and cried when retelling it years later. He reportedly developed lasting fear of woods with panic attacks near forests.
