Sasquatch sighting

An elderly hunter and a companion were trapping along a remote trail with a bad reputation. During the night one was awakened by a foul odor and saw a large body in shadow, fired a shot, and later found tracks that seemed neither human nor bear. The next day they found their camp destroyed, and after separating briefly one returned to find the companion dead with a broken neck, then fled on horseback through the night.

when I was 20, late December, just before Christmas Massachusetts #c417924a-ee05-4a16-b29e-a888cab928f8

Dogman sighting in Massachusetts

The witness went alone with a dog on snowshoes in winter to find where the creature lived. In a frozen bog he found a knoll with a dark hole and saw the thing halfway out on all fours. He threatened it, backed out without turning his back, then hiked toward the pond in a whiteout. He saw a distant black shadow seeming to follow, shouted a warning, and continued to town.

Vocalization

Around 2 a.m. the guest heard clicking and movement around tents and vehicles. After hours of activity, something lifted a Dutch oven lid, charged 30 feet, pushed a fist through his tent window and then pushed its face inches from his. He held a pistol, heard a voice telling him to kick his legs, did so, and the group left chirping. Urine, prints and handprints were found.

Sasquatch sighting in Texas

The witness, then a teenager, drove to a ranch at night to hunt raccoons with a dog. The dog acted fearful, livestock were huddled, and the woods were silent before a foul odor, heavy thumps, a branch break, growls and a scream occurred. The witness then saw large red eyes and a huge upright figure at close range, froze in terror and prayed, then fled to the truck without clear memory of the retreat, later finding the dog on the road and abandoning the rifle.

Movement only near Mount Shasta, California

The guest was canoeing with a church youth group near Mount Shasta when the group felt they were being followed along the bank and smelled a bad odor. A basketball-sized rock was thrown with great force from dense cover and landed near his canoe, prompting leaders to flee. Years later he learned a boy in another canoe had seen a head show its teeth then withdraw, which he now attributes to a Sasquatch.

Sasquatch sighting in Ohio

After smoke from a burn drew a fast rush up the ridge, the witness lit fires to watch. Through a parabolic viewfinder he watched a tall dark-red creature leaning against a tree for about 15 minutes. It rolled its upper lip, had long cheek hair and a strong sulfur musty dog smell that left when it left.

Sasquatch sighting in Oregon

[name withheld] and a friend, ages about 10-11, were hiking unsupervised from an expedition base camp in the Cascades when they found drag marks and a crude log teepee structure. His friend climbed to peer inside and came face-to-face with a hair-covered, bear-like but man-like creature using a stick, then fled in terror to camp. The group stayed the night under guard and were told something large circled camp all night before they evacuated at dawn.

Odor in Oregon

The guest and three companions camped several days in remote central Oregon to look into Bigfoot. They smelled a skunky BO odor, felt something brush tents, found large and human-sized barefoot prints, heard human-like grunts, found torn branches and an uprooted tree, had apples taken from high up with sticker skin peeled, and saw a bulky dark figure at the treeline captured as a blurry night-vision still. They left early due to bad weather.

Cryptid sighting

On exterior patrol around 4 a.m., the witness and partner noticed a man-shaped figure by distant small buildings. Viewed with night vision, it repeatedly sprinted extremely fast from one building to another and back, pausing out of sight, for about 15 minutes. They did not report it because it stayed outside their area of responsibility.

Partial sighting

During night assault training, a machine-gun team on high ground reported two prone figures in the desert behind the team on thermal. The exercise was stopped and a sweep with naked eye, night vision, and thermal found nothing at 30 meters. The figures vanished from thermal and only residual heat remained where they had lain.
