Sasquatch Sightings

Account

Four miles north of Cobble Mountain reservoir, shortly after 1 p.m., anonymous cyclist saw what he thought was a bear walking towards him about 500 feet across a swamp from the road. Watching for two minutes and realizing that it remained on two legs, he shot three colour pictures. It continued halway across the swamp then turned and walked parallel to the road. He entered the swamp 150 to 200 feet away and took three more pictures, which were clear in prints but fuzzy when enlarged. The creature moved easily through swamp grass and very thick brush which the student found difficult to move in. No account of how incident ended. Student took the pictures to the Republican, and Outdoor Editor Frank Sousa investigated this and other reports before a story was printed.
