π Description
We were traveling north to Fort Liard NWT from Fort Nelson in the morning. The day was overcast and a steady heavy rain was coming down. My two friends at the time and I were listening to music on his cassette deck, approximately 25 kilometers or 15 miles north of the Petitot bridge we came across a large sasquach. We call it "Nahganee" which means bushman in the Dene language. The sasquach was at least 7 to eight feet tall, long arms hanging down past his hips. It didn't hear our vehicle untill we were about 2 to 3 hundred yards from the sasquach. Because of the rain it didn't hear us till we got that close. The hair went up on the back of my neck. I yelled look at that thing. The saquach seen us. It took a very few large steps, not running, the strides were very long and in no time was in the bush.I asked my friend to stop and check out the tracks. But he wasn't going to stop no matter what. He said he only had a .22 rifle and we continued on. I threw out a plastic bag for a marker. Throughout the years I relayed the story to friends and aquantenses and received the same thing. "Sure what were you on or maybe you were daydreaming." After a few times of telling the sasquach story I felt I better not tell the story any more because people may think I'm a kook or something. The closest footage of the same kind of thing we had seen was an 8mm film shot at Bluff Creek by a man on horseback. I think it was Bluff Creek,1967.
