Tillamook, Tillamook Cty, Oregon
Jun 1988
Account
Unnamed young man out motorcycling on a logging road in the Coast Range, at dusk, saw a big, dark, biped come downhill and walk along a log, then stand near the road and watch him ride by. Another man found tracks at the site and made a cast, and also found some hair on a broken-off tree. He contacted Jim Hewkin, who saw the tracks about three weeks after the incident. They looked alright. No specifics about them.
