He estimated a single caller a quarter to a half mile to the southwest, noting dogs and livestock reacted to it before it stopped.

Possible daylight sighting by motorist on a gravel road south of Sturgeon Lake

June 2004 Hinckley, Pine County, Minnesota Class B #27028

A man is woken by a whoop near his home and a few months later sees an upright creature run past his barn

In November 2004 the witness was talking on the phone in the kitchen at night when he saw a large bipedal animal run past the barn. The animal was illuminated by the yard light for two seconds or less at about fifty yards distance. He estimated its height by comparison to a six-foot barn door and described it as dark, furry, and stocky with no obvious neck. He searched the next day but found no tracks because the ground was frozen with no snow.

Cabin owner describes one sighting and other incidents 2 miles north of St. Croix State Park

In the early dark morning the witness left a trailer to use outdoor facilities when a dog unusually refused to follow. About 10-15 feet away a large bipedal figure over 7 feet tall moved silently across the yard, paused to turn its head toward the witness, then continued in a smooth gliding motion down an embankment toward a creek and into the woods. The witness grabbed a flashlight but saw and heard nothing further, later noticing fine dust particles hanging in the air where the figure had paused.
