Sasquatch sighting near Skamania County (2004)
Account
About twenty minutes later in a shaded, washed-out section of road, the witness mistook a large multicolored mass in a drainage ditch for a broken tree stump. The shape turned toward him in one fluid motion, revealing eyes, arms, legs and a neckless build. After about twenty seconds it jumped effortlessly up a six-foot bank and crashed away through the forest, prompting him to end the trip and hike back to his truck.
