Campers awoken by loud knocks around 4am near Talemina Scenic Drive
Three people sleeping in a tent while camping were awakened around 3:39 a.m. by loud knocks. Over nearly an hour they heard five to six sets of triple knocks coming from multiple directions and distances, each set ending with a grunt or exhaling animal-like sound. The closest sounds were estimated about 50 yards uphill, and the witnesses felt the sounds seemed like communication between intelligent creatures. They left around daylight and agreed not to camp at that spot again.
Family has possible encounter at Cedar Lake Equestrian Camp
A group of four campers spent the evening at an equestrian campsite beside the forest.

Turkey hunter has close encounter with bigfoot in Kiamichi Mountains
On the afternoon of April 17, 2004, the witness was turkey hunting from a blind in a creek bottom after using a hawk locator call. He noticed what he first thought was a burnt tree about 50 yards away, then realized it was a large, dark-haired bipedal creature watching him. The two stared at each other before the creature turned and walked away upright, and the witness reported being badly frightened and smelling a musky odor when the wind shifted.

A later daylight check found a boulder-covered creek with no tracks.
Brief sighting by a fisherman ; Tracks found ; Report from investigators.
The witness was fishing downstream from family members when he briefly saw the lower legs of a dark figure stepping from the creek onto the bank and into dense brush.

A driver reported watching a large, brown, heavy-set creature slowly jog across a remote two-lane road and continue up a hill on two legs without looking at him.
