Four feral dogs chase sasquatch
On a clear night in August 1972, the 12-year-old witness was reading late in his bedroom when feral dogs chased something into his backyard. He heard heavy bipedal footfalls, a violent impact against the house corner and window, a grunt, and then a short deep growl directed at the dogs, followed by silence. The intruder then fled over a cedar fence as the dogs pursued, leaving a strong foul odor. Next morning the witness found a flattened flowerbed and trellis, a toppled lumber stack, and a tuft of hair of uncertain origin on the fence.
Three boys encounter sasquatch in eroded terrain
The witness, then 12, was exploring a desert wash area with two juvenile companions when they encountered a very tall dark figure near the wash rim. The figure stood facing them for under a minute, then stepped into the wash and walked away out of sight. The group afterwards searched the wash but found no campsite, only an arrangement of brush in and against the wash wall.
Father and son hear vocalizations on Peavine Mt
The witness, then ten, was accompanying a relative on a deer hunt on Peavine Mountain when both heard a long siren-like call from a shadowed draw to the west. The call lasted 15-20 seconds and was repeated multiple times, seeming to move farther away. The relative dismissed it as a fire-tower siren and ended the outing, and they left without further incident.
