Sasquatch sighting near Ashford, Washington (2022)

The youth stayed in the family SUV while his father walked down a game trail to make calls. After hiding in the back to play a prank, he looked up and saw a tall black figure pulling on a large log and pounding it with its fist. He shouted the family code word, searched for his phone to record, and when he looked again the figure was gone but branches were moving despite little wind.

Sasquatch sighting in Utah (2022)

Around 1 to 2 a.m. the camera recorded an upright figure holding a pine tree with its left hand, opening a very large mouth with smeared lips and big teeth. It then pushed off the tree upright and sprinted away out of frame. The witness dropped the phone, felt the display was a threat to be eaten, and remained frozen fearing it knew the sleeping location.

Deer hunters report loud whoops at night 8 miles northwest of Nocona

21 November 2021 Chaplin, Anderson County, Kentucky Class A #71884

Daylight sighting by hunter 30 miles southeast of Louisville

The witness was sitting in a deer stand above a creek in heavily wooded bottomland waiting for deer. After smelling a musky odor and hearing leaves rustling behind the stand, the witness turned and saw a large dark-brown hairy biped across the creek about 60 yards away walking parallel to the water. The creature briefly turned its head toward the witness, continued swiftly with its arms swinging, and stayed in view for 10 to 15 seconds before moving away through trees.

Object throwing in Georgia (2021)

The witness stayed with family in a mountain cabin and first heard handful-like objects hitting a window with no trees nearby. Two nights later she heard wood-on-tree knocks and a very deep growl near the road, then later that night heard a large rock strike the house, heavy thumps in dirt, and tree-knocking from the porch couch where she stayed awake until daylight. She believes two young Sasquatch were attracted by earlier rock-throwing play with her grandson.

Sasquatch sighting in Ohio (2021)

The couple returned to the same road to measure the 2003 crossing and hike all day. They smelled strong urine and rotten-meat odors, found odd stacked limbs and other tree breaks, and watched a large limb fly over a cliff into the creek. Through binoculars the witness saw a black-furred being from waist up behind a tree staring back until it blinked, hid, reappeared, and later vanished by bending down. The husband saw an arm, they heard knocks, a whoop and running, and later found a large bare footprint in a creek bank and an impression behind a tree.

Recent encounter behind Warehouse 24 Gym on the outskirts of Ashland

Around midnight the witness was walking out of a gym toward her vehicle near a treeline when she heard a twig snap.

The figure quickly disappeared behind the building, and the witness left the area and called relatives for a ride while shaken.

Possible daylight sighting by motorcyclist 35 miles NE of Naples

The witness was riding a motorcycle north in the morning when a brown figure crossed the road from east to west.

After riding through the crossing location, the witness smelled a light skunky body odor lingering for several yards.

Vocalization near Topanga, California (2021)

The guest and his bandmate approached a cave and heard a gentle male voice speaking an unintelligible strange language for about thirty seconds. After announcing themselves the voice stopped, then something jumped about twenty feet into brush and moved bipedally up the ridge toward them making bad mountain-lion-like sounds. They counted to three and fled to their van.

Sasquatch sighting in Mississippi (2020)

The witness was deer hunting alone from an elevated stand off a power line in a state wildlife management area on a December afternoon. After hearing heavy breathing and movement, the witness observed a large black hairy human-like figure first on all fours then sitting and standing. The figure vocalized in gibberish-like speech, screamed, grunted, approached to about 30 yards and remained for an extended period before tearing vegetation and moving off. While the witness fled toward a truck, movement paralleled the witness in the woods while vocalizations continued behind, suggesting a second individual, and the witness fired a shot in the air before driving away.

Howls heard near Spokane River

The witness was at home overnight with bedroom windows open after letting her dog out when she heard a loud siren-like howl, followed a few minutes later by a fainter similar sound from farther away. She judged the sounds unlike coyote, wolf, or domestic dog and described them as a single drawn-out whooooooo that rose and then stopped. She also reported a strong trashy skunk-like odor. No visual contact was described.

Vocalization in Texas (2020)

Over about four years the household noticed odd sounds, smells and disturbances around their wooded Texas property. They heard voice-like calls, hoots, growls and repeated wood knocks, found scat, stripped and snapped trees, and missing bait. A wide bare footprint with a deep heel was later found in a raised garden bed after crops were taken, though neither person ever saw an animal.
