Night time sighting along B Street outside Aberdeen

YEAR: 1984

SEASON: Summer

MONTH: July

STATE: Washington

COUNTY: Grays Harbor County

LOCATION DETAILS: The location was on 'B' street in Aberdeen. Coming from Whishkah towards Aberdeen, he would have been on the right hand side of the street. Like he had just crossed from being at the river, maybe.

NEAREST TOWN: Aberdeen

NEAREST ROAD: B street

OBSERVED: Driving home around 3AM returning from my sister's house, I came around the bend on 'B' Street in Aberdeen, after (Stewart?) Park, when I saw a huge upright figure with dark fur.

It seemed like it probably had just come from the river side of the road, and didn't seem too concerned that I was driving past. It was watching me pass the same as I was watching it. I was in disbelief, and didn't even think to stop, or even wake my then boyfriend.

I know this figure wasn't a bear, I know that it wasn't just a huge man in a fur coat. I do know that what I saw was a Sasquatch.
Since it was dark, the only real description I can give is that it was huge, probably around 7', it was mostly upright, with a slight slouch, and the fur looked somewhat matted.

OTHER WITNESSES: Only me. My son and then boyfriend were both sleeping.

TIME AND CONDITIONS: It was 3AM, the lighting conditions, were probably headlights, and maybe a lightpole. The weather was clear.

ENVIRONMENT: I believe the river isn't too far, it was 1984, so the area was a lot more wooded than it may be now.


Follow-up investigation report by BFRO Investigator Paul Graves:

I talked to the witness for a good long while about her sighting, and even though her sighting took place more than 20 years ago she was happy to talk to someone that is still investigating and researching the subject.

She stated that at very first when she saw it, it looked like it had just crossed the road as she came around a slight curve. The fur reminded her of an old matted fur coat at first, until she saw that it was all over it's legs and head. The body was about medium build in her estimate.

It walked very non-chalant, not in a hurry. It was too dark to make out any facial features, but it did look at her momentarily, then slightly turned away from her, although she was only a street width away from it, she got a very good look at the rest of it. It was very tall (6 1/2 to 7 feet in her estimation), and very dark colored.

She kept on driving by, not stopping to investigate. She said she often thinks about it, like it just happened yesterday.
