Road crossing sighting 3mi north of Columbia Gorge, south of Willard
Account
The witness was driving on Williard Road toward its junction in late afternoon when headlights revealed a large black figure in the roadway. The figure appeared to move on all fours across the road, then rose to two legs at the bank and walked into the woods, showing a tall build with a conical head, longer arms, bulky legs, and no clothing, snout, or bear-like ears. The witness first mistook it for a huge bear or multiple deer or elk before concluding it was a Sasquatch. A return visit to look for tracks found nothing after heavy rain.
