π Description
It was late at night. We had a St. Bernard that loved to take long drives. We decided to take a drive in the Pocono Mountains of PA.We would take familiar roads, then usually find a woodsy road to cut off on. That night, I believe we were in the Bushkill Falls area (which should be in Monroe County). We were on a narrow two-lane road in a heavily wooded area. We approached an intersection with no stop signs. We actually stopped to look at a map. All of a sudden, a very tall figure crossed right in front of our car. We were shocked! It must have been at least 7ft.+ tall, long arms, hairy body, ape-like appearance, very slender. It walked completely upright and just crossed over to the other side of the road. There was another car that approached this small intersection--that car also saw it, because he stopped the car--remember, this was a back road with no stop sign. Shortly after we had seen this creature, there was an article in the local newspaper about sightings in the state of PA. I cut out the article and saved it, placing it in a book for safe keeping. After awhile, we moved and the book with the article disappeared. I tried to contact "The Morning Call", but you had to check out their archives to get any information.
π Circumstances
another car at intersection saw same thing--we did not stop to talk about it.
