Class A First-hand BFRO #37885

Daylight encounter while hiking on the Tulalip Indian Reservation

10 June 2010 6 p.m., broad daylight Tulalip, Snohomish County, Washington 1 witness

Account

The witness was hiking on a logging road after riding a bike when they heard a branch snap, brush crashing, and a loud strike like wood on wood. A rock was then thrown from bushes, and the witness saw a hand and a muscular, dark brown, approximately 6-foot figure facing away with a V-shaped tuft of hair on top. The witness shouted at the figure, which remained still facing away, then left the area the way they came.
