November 2005 Greenwater Wa., Pierce County, Washington Class B #32536

Couple camping at a lake near Greenwater experience possible screams

The witness and a companion were camping at an isolated lake over a long weekend. On Saturday morning they began hearing very loud guttural scream-growls that seemed to warn them away from certain areas, including the path to the lake, and the sounds continued into Sunday. Overnight they heard cooking gear clanging and a heavy thump like logs dumped beside their trailer, but in the morning the gear was largely in place and no logs were found, and the companion also reported a strong putrid smell.

Teenage girl and her younger sister chased out of the woods near Greenwater

During a daytime rock-hunting outing, the witness and her younger sister walked down a trail past a creek. Something charged toward them from a wooded hill, crashing through vegetation while emitting a terrifying howl/growl, and the witness glimpsed a black figure. Both girls fled back to their group in tears and left the area immediately.

Recollection of a road crossing at dusk while working as an MP on Fort Lewis

While driving in a truck at twilight, the witness and a companion watched a large upright furry figure cross the road in a few long strides and disappear into the trees at the road edge. After stopping and getting out, they heard movement ahead in the woods, then a loud scream, and ran back to the truck while wailing continued behind them. They agreed they had encountered a bigfoot and returned the next day to find broken limbs but no footprints.

US Army Ranger training mission near Greenwater finds large barefoot human shaped tracks

During a military alpine navigation exercise, the witness's squad stopped to rest at a stream and discovered large, deep footprints on a gravel bar and in soft soil. They measured the prints and stride with a tape measure and noticed occasional additional marks downstream before the trail ended. No maker was seen, and the squad leader suggested instructors may have made the prints as a joke.
