Sasquatch sighting in West Virginia (1998)
1998–1999
near end of day
West Virginia
3 witnesses
Account
Three teenagers were fishing and cooling off in a creek when something crashed down the steep hillside, threw a rock between them and screamed and roared. They scrambled to the bank and saw a large hairy human-like creature at close range making a display, tearing up ground and showing its teeth. They fled, leaving all their gear, and never returned.
