Two people driving in the predawn hours saw a large dark-gray figure crossing the road in their headlights.

Sasquatch sighting near Lake County

The witness was deer hunting from a familiar hillside stump in the late afternoon when the woods went silent and a strong rotting odor appeared. He watched a large black hairy biped walk effortlessly up a steep hill toward him, sniff the air and make eye contact for several seconds before walking away over the hill. After it left he heard a loud high-pitched scream in the distance, felt watched while leaving, and vomited once clear of the woods.
