On March 18, 1987, there was a seven-man crew working outdoors in the cold and frozen wilderness near Fellers Heights, British Columbia. Four of the men called attention to something they saw on the outskirts of their worksite. They described a creature that was 7 ft tall, maybe 400 lbs. A monster.

Myles Jack, one of the workers, said: "But it was a real mover. It was really fluid in the way it moved." The creature was crouched down for part of the time, seeming to watch the men as they worked. When it circled the work site, it would peer at them through the trees, still watching them work. "It was like we were on his territory and he was checking us out."

Mestdagh had been working in the northern forests for over a decade. He assured those asking that the creature they watched could not have been a bear. "Its legs were too long and it moved too quick . . . for it to be a bear."

Ann Rees, staff reporter for the newspaper - The Province - went out to the location. She wrote: "It's being dubbed the best Sasquatch sighting in almost a decade."

Rene Dahinden was asked to investigate the report. He found a print that seemed to indicate that a creature had been crouching while watching the workers. He ruled out the possibility of pranksters or a hoax.

Said Dahinden: "Planting footprints in the ground six feet apart in a foot and one-half of snow with no disturbance between the prints is just not that simple. Besides, it wouldn't have the weight that these prints seem to indicate."
