Sasquatch sighting in Washington (1991)
Account
As a child sailing with parents in the San Juans, the witness saw two large dark shapes swimming that were first thought to be otters. They crawled ashore on all fours with oddly stiff limbs, then stood upright and joined a larger group standing in a clearing. The family sailed away without discussing it, and the witness remembered the scene for decades.
