Class A First-hand BFRO #1225

Creature seen crossing road

3 July 1997 daytime Neilton, Grays Harbor County, Washington 1 witness

Account

The witness was driving alone toward a family camp when a large white-haired biped crossed the highway about 50 yards ahead. The figure walked upright with wide strides, moving from dense forest on one side to an overgrown old logging road on the other without looking toward the car. The witness slowed at a pullout, noted the location relative to a curve warning sign, and later measured the spot as one mile north of a highway turnoff.
