Two fishermen frightened after dark on Lake Kanawauke

The witness and a companion were in a boat heading toward shore at night when they heard splashes, smelled a foul wet-animal odor, and saw shoreline vegetation shaking violently. A large rock was thrown from shore toward them and landed near the boat. When they shone a flashlight toward shore they saw a large dark human-shaped figure with red glowing eyes partly obscured by vegetation, then yelled and banged oars before retreating to a safer distance and hearing a loud scream or roar as they loaded the boat and left.

Possible nighttime sighting by campground operator in Bear Mountain State Park

The witness was riding as a passenger with a companion while driving home to a year-round campground at night. The witness spotted a brown, hairy figure crouched on a boulder on a hill, facing toward the companion's cabin. When headlights hit it, it paused briefly, leapt about nine feet to another rock, stood up and ran bipedally out of sight down the hill. The companion did not see it.

Tracks found in snow & other stories from vicinity of Bear Mountain State Park

The witness found footprints in overnight snow in the morning at home. The tracks started at a tree in front of the house, led around the back to another tree near the chicken coop, circled there about four times, then stopped with no trail leaving the circle or returning to the front. The witness covered one print with a garbage can lid to preserve it for a photo but never got a photo.
