Sasquatch sighting near Vernonia, Oregon (2021)

The witness was camping with friends for a bachelor party on a private property near a river. Shortly after going to sleep in a large tall tent, he heard and felt heavy footsteps paired with growling approaching. He looked up through the open tent top and saw a very large face staring down at him that showed shock then anger and growled before stomping away through camp past another camper's van and down a trail.

Sasquatch sighting in Oregon (2014)

After hearing heavy metal banging for several nights, the witness ran armed from his fifth-wheel to a 30x40 foot excavation pit. He confronted two 8-9 foot hair-covered beings on the far side and a 4-foot juvenile trapped in the 12-foot hole, while a 10-11 foot individual flanked near his truck. After a scream-roar and standoff where he lowered his aim off the juvenile, the adults retrieved the juvenile and withdrew silently to the treeline. He packed up, later had researchers trespass after his cousin told them, filled the hole, and sold the property.

September 2011 Sumpter, Baker County, Oregon Class A #36076

Close encounter at sunset by miners near Sumpter

The witness drove a companion by ATV to a high switchback at sunset so the companion could get phone reception, then stepped away to give privacy. Hearing a deep warning growl from a tree cluster between them, the witness drew a sidearm and moved to get between the companion and the sound. While doing so, the witness watched a very large, fast, hair-covered creature cross open growth to reach the trees, after which it went silent, and both left promptly.

October 2002 Glide, Douglas County, Oregon Class A #8227

Driver stops, approaches bigfoot on foot around midnight on Hwy 138, 4 miles W of Glide

The witness was driving home around midnight when he saw a tall figure standing by a roadside fence watching him pass. Believing it was a man needing help, he stopped, got out with a flashlight, and started walking back toward it. A loud vocalization shifting from high-pitched to low guttural frightened him, causing him to drop the flashlight and drive away. He returned the next day to recover the flashlight and found only flattened grass with no footprints or hair.

Woman describes possible encounter while elk hunting near Pilot Rock

The group later returned to the site and found unusual scat.

September 1993 Hammond, Clatsop County, Oregon Class A #10097

Skateboarders have encounter near Fort Stevens

Two skateboarders riding ahead of their group heard a high scream then close low grunts off a paved bike trail. One crouched to look and saw a very hairy black bipedal animal crouched about 10 yards away that they had run past. The animal stood to about 6 to 7 feet tall, then ran upright into thick brush swinging its arms, moving very fast and loudly through deadfall before going silent. The pair fled to their companions and a later search of the dead brush found no tracks or sign.

Scream in Oregon (1980)

In May 1980 [name withheld] and a friend skied at night up the closed Highway 242 toward Middle Sister to claim the season's first summit entry. They were followed for hours by something screaming, breathing heavily, breaking branches and circling on two legs, forcing them to shelter in a road grader. After it left they found large human-like tracks with toes crossing a creek and in the woods, then abandoned the climb and skied out.

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.

At a rural house on the Oregon coast the household experienced repeated night howls, growls, talking-like sounds, dogs reacting, motion lights, a hand smudge, and large footprints in hard gravel. Young children repeatedly described dark hairy figures with flat noses and red eyes pawing or scratching at a bedroom window, motioning to come outside, and disappearing and reappearing.

Sasquatch sighting near Baker City, Oregon

After stepping out to urinate and returning to the cab, a large tawny creature rose from behind a dumpster and stared from a few feet away, making aggressive faces and growling sounds. A second female-looking creature carrying small animals then emerged without acknowledging the witness, after which both left quickly and the witness drove away.
