Account
Colleen was driving the main logging road beside the Lewis and Clark river, half way between Saddle Mountain and Seaside, when she saw downhill about 250 feet away a shaggy, brown-haired creature walking with arms swinging far out, and a graceful stride. Estimated height 6 to 7 feet. She pointed it out to her friends, and all watched until it disappeared in the brush.
