Sasquatch sighting in Washington (1972)

1972 Washington 1 witness

Account

The witness had become separated from his hunting partner and sneaked to the edge of an opening. He watched what he first thought were two bears eating mushrooms for about thirty minutes. One stood up revealing a male Sasquatch, later joined by a female carrying a baby, and after being winded the witness stepped out, spoke to them, and thanked them as they left.
