Campers describe rock throwing on Forbush Lake

A family camping in a tent at the mouth of a river woke around 5 a.m. to sounds of something moving in the water followed by repeated large splashes described as rocks being thrown. They retreated to their boat offshore, where the witness shone a flashlight and saw a red reflective glint near the tent. They waited until daylight, found nothing at the spot, then broke camp and left.

Various incidents near a possible nest on Vancouver Island

A group of seven hikers were hiking on a mountain trail in the afternoon. They heard cackling, yelping, growling and moaning sounds and found the trail blocked by a large uprooted stump with placed boulders and smashed trees. Two upright figures, one black and one light brown and hairy, were seen moving parallel to the group and leaping down a cliff, while the group felt stalked and watched as they hurried out to the road.

May 1991 Lake Louise, British Columbia Class B #11595

Possible daylight sighting by hikers on the Stanley Glacier Trail (BC/Alberta border)

A group of six hiked down a mountain trail in the afternoon. A hair-covered biped crossed the trail between the lead hiker and the next person and leapt down an embankment into trees. The party glimpsed movement and heard crashing as a dog chased it, then watched a distant burnt tree sway with creaking before falling. Believing the creature pushed the tree over, the group left quickly.

A water-taxi captain told the guest that his uncle was deer hunting across the pass when he smelled something and saw bushes and small trees shaking. Something big stood up and ran while pounding its chest like an African gorilla. The family concluded bush apes were in the area.

Sasquatch sighting in British Columbia

While clearing driftwood at the guest's kayak camp with workers and his sister present, small trees began shaking violently and a boulder rolled down. The guest then saw a large creature between two trees at close range that locked eyes and grimaced showing large teeth. The group fled by dinghy to the tour boat and left for a dock, later measuring the standing impressions at about seven feet four.
