Sasquatch Sightings

Account

Diane Vaughan was hiking, going North into Angeles National Forest from the corner of Alta Loma and Lake Avenue, north of Altadena. Precise location not established, but had done considerable climbing. On the way down she saw a movement in her peripheral vision and turned to see a black erect creature, about 6 feet tall, thin, zigzagging down a different path behind her--"almost dancing." It was 150 to 200 yards away. She hurried back up towards it, and it left ran off the path, down the bushy ridge. She looked down but could not see it, then she went back down, and from her original position looked back and saw it again enter the path. After they had looked at each other for several minutes she left, first raising an arm full length and slowly waving at the creature, full swing from one side to the other. The creature imitated the gesture, but first turned facing towards the right. Site is above the Cobb Estate, near the Mount Lowe fire road. She had another sighting in the same general area six weeks later.
