Possible encounter by young campers in their tent after hearing woodknocks near Buckley

Four friends camped overnight near a river. After a distant yelp, a companion reported seeing a large shape by the river that could not be made out in the dark. Later the two awake witnesses heard a loud knock on a tree near camp and then bipedal footsteps circling the tent, including contact brushing the tent, before the sounds moved away. A daylight check found no tracks.

Hunter hears unknown vocalization in the distance, south of Lost Lake in the Norse Peak Wilderness

While camping alone in a tent on a hunting trip, the witness heard unidentified calls over about an hour and later was awakened by movement and shaking of the tent. The witness noticed the tent had been lifted and saw a shadow pass by, then illuminated a large dark human-like figure about 20 yards away that turned and ran into the brush. The witness kept lights on until sunrise and packed up and left the next morning.

Loud vocalizations sounds heard

Two companions watching lightning during a storm reportedly heard loud pig-like grunts and screams and noisy movement in dense brush. They also reported seeing red reflected eyes spaced a few inches apart. The animal was described as large, but its size could not be judged because of a steep slope, and no tracks or hair were found afterward.

Boy observes sasquatch on hillside near Orting

A child crossing a creek to climb a wooded hillside behind home heard a noise and saw a large muscular figure standing in the woods. The child ran back across the creek, looked back, and watched the figure look, then turn and walk uphill out of sight. The account was relayed years later by a relative after the child recognized a picture on a television tape.
