Incident #1000964
Keremeos, Okanagan Dis, British Columbia
1969 to 1970
Account
Wendy Edelson was driving East on Highway 3 between Keremeos and Penticton, came around a curve and saw greeny-blue eyes reflecting, then drove past a 7-foot creature covered with longish dark brown hair standing beside the road next to the lake, very still as if hoping not to be seen. Proportions like a human. A high bank, rocks and dirt, on the other side, road plowed, snowing likely, lake, presumably frozen, on South side of road..
