Sasquatch sighting report, August 14,
2003:
A buddy and me 3 weeks ago
were hiking up into Spindle Canyon (located
above Becker Creek at the northerly end of the
Pitt Lake), looking for Slumach’s lost gold
mine. It was starting to get dark so we decided
to make camp for the night … just as we were
both starting to fall asleep we heard the most
blood curdling scream then a bunch of low
garbled noises. We shit, turned on every light
we had with us and scoured the bush around us.
We could smell this very rotten odor (rotten
eggs & excrement?). Anyway, we never went
back to sleep that night, and at daybreak we
proceeded to hike further up in to the canyon.
We couldn’t believe our eyes, there it was
crouched over a pond in the creek catching
minnows. It never saw us. Suddenly it turned
around and looked at us, stood up and bolted
into the bush. I must say we went back down the
way we came up … I’ll never go back into that
area again. This is a true story and if you wish
you can contact me by cell phone at
xxx-xxxx .

Note: In a follow-up phone
conversation, B. Hay went on to explain
that he has been into this area in the past
searching for gold and has found 16-17 inch
Sasquatch tracks himself, and on one other
occasion had reports from a friend that had been
in the same area prospecting and had seen large
barefoot man-like tracks in the snow leading
away from the wreckage of a helicopter high in
Spindle Canyon.
B. Hay estimated the height of the Sasquatch he
encountered at somewhere between 7 and 8 feet.
