Sasquatch sighting near Van Zandt County (1966)
Account
The witness and a friend found an uncut-log cabin in a gully, live trees woven together, and a strong-smelling dirt mound. The friend screamed about a monkey man and ran while the witness saw a tall brown-haired female with tender eyes gesture toward the friend. The witness smelled traces of her while running back and later helped measure both creatures for relatives.
