Sasquatch sighting near Sweat, South Dakota (1998)
Account
Driving around a curve at night the witness saw movement in the headlights and then a large figure lying in snow that rose on one elbow to look at her. She thought it was a big man in a fluffy white coat with only the face visible. She turned to help but it was gone, leaving no one walking in the moonlit snow, and she later concluded it was a white Bigfoot watching the bar across the road.
