Footsteps in Washington (1987)

In 1987 the witness was deer hunting and camping in eastern Washington. After the group left him alone at a logging road camp, he heard bipedal footsteps approach his tent at night, felt something strike the tent, then heard movement near his car and a log being torn apart in a gully before fleeing by vehicle to the highway. A night or two later he returned with a hunting companion and both heard multiple chattering, tonal and clicking vocalizations from different directions surrounding the camp.

Camper hears heavy footsteps at night around tent at Baker Lake

The witness was sleeping in a tent at a lakeside campground with family around 1-2 a.m. when heavy rapid footsteps passed the tent, paused at the picnic table where faint silverware clanking was heard, then left the campsite. It was too dark to see anything and the witness stayed inside the tent. A morning search found no tracks because the ground was dry.

Fishermen recount having large rocks thrown at them while fishing Steelhead on the Duckabush River

Three companions were night-fishing from a log on a river about 1 a.m. when large splashes and watermelon-sized rocks thrown from the opposite bank soaked them. In dim lantern light they saw two huge figures standing on a ledge across the uncrossable river, swaying, with glowing greenish eyes. They shouted at the figures, another rock was thrown near them downstream, and they fled on foot to their vehicle.

Camper experiences odd odors and sounds, feels presence

The witness was camping with family near the Elwah River and was sitting outside after others went to sleep when a rock struck the tent twice. The family moved to their car, and the witness later stood outside in darkness sensing a very tall man-like presence nearby, hearing breathing, footsteps and snapping twigs and smelling a musky foul odor. After headlights showed nothing, the odor and sense of unease lifted and the family returned to the tent for the night before breaking camp the next day.
