Sasquatch sighting near Pike County
Account
While riding to collect firewood before a storm, the witness stopped at a creek bend and saw a creature squatting in the creek about 20-25 feet away. It made eye contact, then jumped straight up an 8-foot bank and left on two feet. He and his friend later found enormous footprints in sand beds but abandoned camp and lost the prints to flooding the next day.
