Sasquatch sighting near Wilkes County (1995)

July 1995 dusk, late evening Wilkes County, North Carolina 2 witnesses

Account

The witness and a friend were driving slowly up a gravel mountain road at dusk toward a friend's house. They came around a curve and saw a tall, orange-haired biped standing by the roadside, which then crossed in front of the truck and ran up a steep bank with ease. The witness got out, smelled a foul odor and heard it crashing through brush uphill, and returned the next day to find no trace.
