Sasquatch sighting in Oregon (1973)

1973–1975 night, dark and cloudy Oregon 1 witness

Account

The witness was with two companions camping and riding dirt bikes when freezing rain left ice on the road. At night on a dark cloudy hilltop he stopped to wait and watched something come up to the road. It took two or three large upright steps across the road onto a cut bank and was gone. He described it as much bigger and too bulky to be a person.
