Sasquatch Sightings

Account

Red Edwards and Bill Cole were hunting in a mountain valley. Edwards saw an apelike head in the bush, creature eating leaves. It ran out of the clump of brush away from him and apparently collided with Cole, as when Edwards rounded the end of the brush clump he saw a heavily built, hair-covered creature rnning away carrying in its arms what looked like a man, only legs and shoes showing. Edwards refused to believe his eyes and went on hunting, covering the ridge above the valley and returning to the entrance from the opposite side in the afternoon. Heard a hiss, then made out in the centre of some brush a dark outline like two men sitting side by side. Approached to 10 feet, the shape broke in two and parts went out opposite sides of the clump. Smaller of the two seemed to be carrying something close to its chest, maybe a young one. Fur was light brown at tips, dark brown underneath. Something screamed behind him, he turned and saw a flash of brown disappear behind a large tree about 12 feet away. Watching, he noted an eye peering out from behind the tree about six feet up. He left, but looked back and from 60 to 70 feet saw head, part of back and outstretched arm disappear behind the brush, as if had made a flying leap from behind the tree. Found Cole back at the car, neither said anything of their strange experiences. Discussing it years later, Cole had no recollection of the thing carrying him after it ran into him.
