Sasquatch sighting in California

The witness was working alone overnight operating noisy machinery at a mountain job site in the rain. He heard impacts on a metal container, then saw a dark upright figure by the trees that crept toward him as rocks were thrown. He fled to his car, struggled to open a locked gate, then faced a much larger red-eyed figure that snapped a branch, vocalized loudly, and bluff-charged. He escaped in his car with damage to the vehicle.

Sasquatch sighting in California

A 10-year-old riding a bike reported being chased by a gorilla-like animal that ran on all fours. The animal allegedly grabbed the rear tire, throwing the rider over the handlebars, then bent the mountain bike in half and threw it about 20 feet up into a tree. The child ran home and an officer who investigated reportedly found the mangled bike in the tree with no explanation.

Vocalization in California

While sleeping in his van in Alabama Hills, the witness woke at 2:30 AM to bird-like sounds shifting to crickets, then a short wailing whistle. Something pressed against the van and shook it violently while he felt overwhelming dread, pressure, inability to move and hear. After it stopped he dressed, found no tracks, felt watched while leaving, and drove to a populated rest stop.

A short time after this sighting Eureka, California #c9c38c8d-cfd7-4059-a356-154d960d2baf

Sasquatch sighting near Eureka, California

The witness had placed trash cans under his bedroom window after finding trash strewn near the woods. One night he woke to rattling, saw a cone-headed form at the cans, and watched it spin, drop to all fours, and sprint across the roughly 50-yard yard into dense rainforest-like brush at remarkable speed. At the time he dismissed it as a bear, but later interpreted the long arms and quadrupedal run as Sasquatch-like.
