Possible night sighting by motorist on Hwy 101 six miles south of Garberville

The witness was driving south on Highway 101 at night when headlights illuminated a large hair-covered figure lying on its side on the shoulder. The figure was described as human-shaped but non-human, about seven feet tall, with broad shoulders and coarse brown hair. After passing, the witness turned around and returned within about two minutes, but the figure was gone with no other vehicles seen in the area.

Possible daylight sighting by a bicyclist on the General James A. Van Fleet State Trail

The witness was bicycling on a trail through swamp in the early afternoon when two dark brown figures crossed the trail about 200 yards ahead. The figures paused briefly to look toward the witness, then ran off into an area with no visible trail and a steep bank and quickly disappeared from sight. The witness thought they looked like Bigfoots but considered a hoax or soldiers as possible explanations, and noted a large military helicopter flew overhead just after.

Boy scouts have possible encounter near Possum Kingdom Lake

In early July 1988 the witness was alone at a summer camp when rustling and screams were heard from a rocky ledge above and a white upright figure was glimpsed moving behind trees. Two companions ran down the hill saying they had encountered a large white humanoid ape-like creature with long arms on a trail that screamed and fled after eye contact. The companions were shaken for hours but later denied the incident, and the witness remains uncertain whether it was a costumed person or a real creature.
