Possible Bigfoot spotted 3 miles north of Kansas City Airport

The witness went onto a deck in the evening to photograph the harvest moon with a cell phone. She noticed a tall humanoid figure moving quickly from right to left across a pasture, zigzagging and appearing to pick objects from the ground and tuck one into its arm. The figure passed behind a tree near a small pond and disappeared after less than a minute without looking toward her.

Possible Daylight Sighting near Tizer Lakes, reported by snowmobilers

The witness was snowmobiling with two companions to dig out a stuck snowmobile when they rested in a valley meadow. He spotted a very large dark figure standing about 200 yards away behind a sparse grove of trees and called a companion over, and both watched it for over a minute. The figure remained still and faced them before they left, and it was gone when they returned hours later with no tracks or further interaction observed.

Group of friends have possible late night interaction in an old rock quarry near Granite Falls

After making knocks and whoop calls, they reported hearing a return knock, whoops, a guttural grumble and a moan, and seeing multiple eye-shines. Later in a quarry area they reported watching a human-like figure in night-vision goggles that crouched when noticed, followed by a rock thrown nearby, after which they left.

31 May 2013 Groveland, Polk County, Florida Class B #41309

Possible daylight sighting by a bicyclist on the General James A. Van Fleet State Trail

The witness was bicycling on a trail through swamp in the early afternoon when two dark brown figures crossed the trail about 200 yards ahead. The figures paused briefly to look toward the witness, then ran off into an area with no visible trail and a steep bank and quickly disappeared from sight. The witness thought they looked like Bigfoots but considered a hoax or soldiers as possible explanations, and noted a large military helicopter flew overhead just after.

5 May 2012 Tallulah Falls, Habersham County, Georgia Class B #35352

Golfers watch large animal jump from a tree outside Tallulah Falls

Two companions playing golf drove up to the 17th green in the afternoon and saw a tan, 6-foot animal leap outward from a high tree branch nearby. It landed hard with a loud thud that shook the tree and moved into low undergrowth, where it was heard taking a few steps before stopping and staying hidden. The witnesses felt it was too large, heavy, and tailless to be a mountain lion or bear and suggested it could have been a juvenile Sasquatch.

October 2009 Iron, Mn. Just Before Virginia, St. Louis County, Minnesota Class B #27676

Possible brief sighting by a motorist outside Mountain Iron

The witness was driving east on Highway 169 toward Virginia on a bright Sunday morning when she spotted a large silvery-gray furry creature on a hilltop clearing north of the westbound lanes. The creature walked west toward the woods with a swaggered gait, long strides, swinging long arms and a slightly forward-bent posture, showing a conical head with little or no neck. After a few seconds median trees blocked the view, and the witness continued without turning back. A car stopped on the opposite side appeared to be watching the same thing.

15 October 1994 Dodgeville, Iowa County, Wisconsin Class B #4761

Rainy night sighting near Dodgeville

The witness was driving home from work at night in rain and noticed a large brown figure walking along the roadside. At first the figure was mistaken for a large man in rain gear, but on getting closer the witness judged it far too large for a person and thought it might be a Bigfoot-type creature. The witness later returned to the spot but found nothing there.

July 1988 Palo Pinto, Palo Pinto County, Texas Class B #8861

Boy scouts have possible encounter near Possum Kingdom Lake

In early July 1988 the witness was alone at a summer camp when rustling and screams were heard from a rocky ledge above and a white upright figure was glimpsed moving behind trees. Two companions ran down the hill saying they had encountered a large white humanoid ape-like creature with long arms on a trail that screamed and fled after eye contact. The companions were shaken for hours but later denied the incident, and the witness remains uncertain whether it was a costumed person or a real creature.

1926 Walden, Jackson County, Colorado Class B #5641

Daylight sighting by woodsman of two bipeds stalking an elk

The witness was positioned on one mountainside watching across a valley toward an opposite slope where an elk was being stalked by two large brown animals first taken for bears. Viewed through binoculars, the two stood upright and walked on two legs, keeping the elk between them and at times hiding behind trees before entering heavy timber after about five minutes. The outcome for the elk was not seen, but the witness thought the pair probably killed it.
