An account in Washington County, Oregon

Review of Report 395 year 2000. I rode my horse thru the area on many occasions. It was roughly two years earlier and it still is fresh in my memory as of yesterday. On this Summer day, my friend and I had just cross a creek and we were riding the bottom of a ridge. It is a game trail. I was the lead ride and my German Shepard was om my heels, with my friend behind me. In the distance approximately 120 yards, I saw first what i thought was a bear foraging ...It saw me and took off on two feet straight up this ridge. My dog went after it and she was gone for a half an hour. I could not ride my horse where I believe what I saw was a Sasquach. I took another game trail and galloped to the top and into a wheat field. I called and called for my dog and she did return, pretty tired. My friend never saw anything. This event happened so fast, in a blink of an eye. It was dark blackish and I have to believe it was young, not broad just stocky. Reading report 395 put my incident just south of Touge road and Hwy 219. It is the the thick timber stands above the hay fields.
