Sasquatch Sightings

Account

Mrs. Jane Brazda on August 3, 1973, told Joel Hurd that her brother, Mike Reddell, and his girlfriend had had a sasquatch experience the previous evening. Mike said they met a photographer named Tom Crawford, from Portland, on the trail to Paddy (Patty?) Go Easy Pass beyond Salmon-La-Sac ranger station, and later met him again. He told them that in the interval he had been taking pictures from a high spot near Sprite Lake close to the summit of the pass, and had seen on a lower ridge near the lake what appeared to be a large hair-covered man run into the open, then turn and ran back into the trees. This performance was repeated several times. (Neither the pass nor the lake are on the 1:250,000 map. Guessing that the pass is where the trail from the Cle Elum River crosses over to Jack Creek in Chelan Cty.)
