Resident observes a sasqautch chasing herd of deer east of Bethel

The witness was sitting in a parked car in a driveway talking on the phone in the late afternoon. The witness noticed about 30 deer running quickly across a yard beyond a creek.

The witness watched it from about 100 yards away and estimated it was 8 to 10 feet tall by comparison to the deer.

In 1953 three young children were picking blackberries near a railroad track when a tall hair-covered biped came down a steep hillside and walked north along the tracks, looking at them briefly. The witness recalled long arms, a long stride, a primate-like face, and a thin build with short dark hair. The children ran back to the cottage to tell parents, who dismissed the account.
