Sasquatch sighting near Putnam County (2024)

On a quiet morning drive, the witness stopped and watched a thin dark-brown quadruped standing in the dirt road about 300 feet ahead. It lacked a visible snout or ears, looked at the witness, then drank or sniffed at a puddle and walked into the woods. The witness later photographed a partial 15-inch print in the puddle.

Campers have possible encounter while staying in High Point State Park

Two brothers camped overnight beside a lake in the park. During the night and again after dawn they repeatedly heard a loud aggressive exhale-like sound nearby, along with footsteps and branches breaking as something moved through the forest, followed by scream-like sounds that turned into chatter. In daylight they found a matted vegetation bed, a fresh flattened trail, and footprints in mud where the sounds had come from. The entity itself was never seen.

Woman hears possible vocalizations in the James A. Reed Memorial Wildlife Area

The witness was photographing along the tree line on the south side of the lake when she heard a close grunting-snorting sound followed by a deep growl without seeing the source. Shaken, she returned toward two fishermen and then left across the dam, photographing a large print in the mud. From the car area she heard the same loud vocalization coming from across the lake where she had been and saw the fishermen hurrying across the dam, after which all parties left.

Family describes possible encounters on a lake near Oak Grove

A couple watching movies in a barn heard prolonged loud splashing along a nearby lake shore that stopped when a flashlight was shone toward it and then resumed in a different spot. They felt uneasy and left for the night. The next morning the wife found a very large human-like footprint with partial prints on the shore and kept a broken cast of it.

Hiker has daylight sighting near Olive Branch

The witness reported walking back along a trail after making calls with no response when he found a very large footprint and a scat pile containing vegetation and shell fragments. Moments later he saw a very tall, heavily built, dark brownish creature about 70-80 feet away that had been digging at a ground hornet nest. The creature then ran rapidly down one ridge and up another at a speed the witness felt could not be matched, and disappeared. The witness then collected his things and left for his car.

Hikers find large barefoot prints on the Elwha River Trail

The witness and a companion were hiking out after a multi-day camping trip when they found a large barefoot-like print in mud, with additional fainter tracks continuing along the trail, and took a single cellphone photo. That night while sheltering in a trail cabin with a poncho rigged over an open window, the covering was pulled open and a securing board was knocked onto a camper despite no observed wind. The witness noted the nighttime disturbance could have been a bear, but also noted a food-strewn garbage bag was left untouched.

In the morning he found large foot-shaped flattened grass impressions leading to and from the spot behind the bush.

Park Rangers and residents of Glendale Springs observe large footprints in deep snow

The witness claimed large foot-shaped tracks were found in deep snow around their home in Glendale Springs. The tracks were described as 12 to 16 inches long and spaced 5 to 6 feet apart, extending over a mile or more and appearing to cross a split-rail fence in one stride. More than ten residents and park rangers reportedly saw the tracks and photos were taken, while rangers suggested rabbits or small animals as an explanation.

BFRO YEAR: 1/5/1998 Nantahala Outdoor Center, Swain County, North Carolina Class B #3338

Long trail of 13" long human-like footprints found in deep snow and rough terrain

The witness was backpacking alone on a steep, snow-covered trail when they found large bare human-like footprints heading the same direction for about a mile and a half. The witness initially dismissed them as a possible hoax and chose not to photograph them. Overnight rain melted the snow, and the footprints were gone by the descent the next day.

Sasquatch sighting

On a later solo effort, the witness used camouflage and sound cover to approach close to a group. He took still photos of a female with a camera set for night use, producing poor images. After being pulled from concealment by the ankle, he was struck by a thrown rock and then nearly hit by a boulder when trying to reach the photo site, so he withdrew.
