Today, April 13, 2015, myself along with Brad and Jason, decided to check out an area which was fairly close by on a local FSR where I was told a possible Sasquatch sighting had occurred just a few weeks before. The gent walked up to me while I was at the Co-op filling station in Hatzic, BC. He was in a hurry so I gave him one of my cards and he agreed to call to set up a proper interview for a later date.
However, he did give me enough information as to figure out the location. We felt we could at least check the area out in the meantime, as I knew the bridge in question, having been there a number of times in the past. My two colleagues had also been there before, as well. The bridge in question is in the photo below.
The witness in this case reported that he was traveling over the bridge and was following the road as it veered left up a slight upgrade when he spotted a large, black, upright figure disappearing into the trees on the drivers side of the road, about 300 hundred feet beyond the bridge. The witness did slow down as he passed the spot but did not stop. I hope to get a lot more details soon.
Our searching of the area did uncover what appears to be a game trail about where he claims to have seen the animal (see photo below) but of course there were no footprints or any other evidence in the area to support the sighting. This was not surprising considering all the rain that has fallen.
So another possible sighting? Hopefully more will come to light in the following days.
