Sasquatch Sightings

Account

Lester Olinger was driving from Quincy to his home at Twain, with two girls from Vallejo as passengers, when he rounded a curve on Hwy 70 and had to swerve to avoid colliding with a crouched-down apelike figure in the road. He later told Jim McClarin that it was big and dark, apparently hair-covered and filled most of his lane of the road, but said it could have been a bear. He could give no anatomical detail. It seems likely the incident was at night, but this is not stated anywhere. He got out of his car with a rifle, but did not see the creature again.
