Hunters have strange experiences and make an unusual discovery
Two companions were hunting deer on a family property near Pine Mountain when they found a footprint and other tracks near a pine overhang, noticed a localized strong skunk-like odor, and saw a pile of fresh acorns with no oak nearby. As they moved uphill using alternating advances, each heard an unrecognized whistle and the sound of a large boulder rolling, with neither attributing the sounds to the other. Both reported a feeling of being followed uphill.
Sasquatch sighting near Lake County (1958)
The witness, then a teenager, was riding with his brother and a friend in an old pickup checking irrigation on his father's walnut ranch when they spotted a tall hairy biped moving through the orchard. They chased it by farm roads as it ran uphill diagonally across a 40-acre block, stopped to watch it pass close by, then followed it across more blocks until it crossed a road and disappeared into dense brush on a neighboring property. Afterwards they inspected its long strides in wet ground and decided not to tell his father for fear of losing their irrigation job.
Property disturbance near Lake County
The witness's father hung two large slabs of wild hog meat on high hooks under the roof rafters to cure overnight and brought them inside each morning. One morning both slabs were gone without torn meat, bent hooks, drag marks, or mess, and the family's dogs would not approach the spot and had barked not at all overnight. The witness speculates the creature seen earlier may have taken the meat.
