Hunter encounters a Sasquatch, while on a deer drive.
Account
The witness was hunting deer with relatives and became separated from the group down in a trench while pushing deer. While alone in the trench, the witness smelled a strong stinking animal-like odor and heard something running back and forth on two legs with enough force to shake the ground. A tree estimated at 6 to 10 inches at the stump crashed to the ground behind the witness, who then climbed out quickly and left for the vehicles without further investigation.
