(CNN) — Is that … Bigfoot? Someone at the Washington State Department of Transportation certainly thinks there’s a chance.

The Twitter account for the agency shared a traffic camera’s photograph that showed what appeared to be, well, something walking on a hill above a highway.

“Sasquatch spotted!!! I’m not superstitious… just a little stitious,” the person running the DOT account for the eastern part of the state tweeted on Wednesday. “If you look closely by the tree on the left there looks to be something.”

In the still image, taken by webcam on Sherman Pass, a dark anthropomorphic figure can certainly be seen in a walking stance.

But Twitter sleuths weren’t having it.

One replied, “Zoom in, it’s the tree trunk shadow. I want to believe but I don’t believe this picture. Or that he stood still in multiple photos… unless he is frozen of course. Lol.”

The webcam is still posting photos from the spot — a new one appears every hour. Sherman Pass is on Highway 20, in the mountains of northeast Washington.

The mythical creature is widely associated with the mountains of the Pacific Northwest, but it appears to be a traveler — sightings have been reported all over the world.
