On January 22nd, 2020, the Washington State Department of Transportation’s twitter account, WSDOT East, tweeted out a message and several images of a dark outline among the treeline and snow.
Sasquatch spotted!!! I'm not superstitious… just a little stitious. Have you noticed something strange on our Sherman Pass/SR 20 webcam before? If you look closely by the tree on the left there looks to be something… might be Sasquatch… We will leave that up to you! pic.twitter.com/RaDGqQdEUF

Over the next several days, the account continued to post tweets mentioning sasquatch, including a video from another DOT account, SnoqualmiePass.
Very interesting… 🤔🤔🤔 https://t.co/CW4WbAi6y4

The tweets got a lot of attention, from Bigfoot believers and doubters alike, including landing on the homepage of CNN.com.
People quickly pointed out that the Sasquatch-like outline didn’t move from photo to photo that the traffic camera would take and it later came out that a Bigfoot cutout was known to be at that location.
As for the Snoqualmie Pass video, if you look very carefully, the date is in the lower left hand corner, stating the video is from August 2019 and not a recent video.
