Incident #1000851
Deer Park, Stevens Cty, Washington
Mar 1975
Account
Linda and Neal Tobeck were driving on Monroe Road, flat farm country in Stevens County, when they saw an upright creature much taller than a man cross the road just ahead, two strides for two lanes, very fast. Dark, furry, long arms, no neck, did not look at lights, exaggerated arm swing. Got within two car lengths, but head and face not clearly seen, above lights. Next day failed to find tracks in old snow, could not find exact spot.
