Family hears strange sounds near West Point at dusk

A couple picnicking by a creek at dusk heard a loud howl from downstream with gibberish-like barking between howls, then an answering howl from the ridge behind them. Cattle downstream moved upstream away from the sound. They left at dark, drove downstream toward the first howl location, saw a buck fleeing the creek bottom, and found no people at creek access areas.

Screams heard in mountians near hwy 680

The witness and a visiting companion were awakened in the home in the middle of the night by a loud unnatural howling that seemed to pass the house and fade into the distance over about ten seconds. They stayed inside and assumed at the time it was dogs or coyotes. The witness later shared the account after reading similar descriptions while still doubting it was Bigfoot-related.

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.
