Door or window contact in Washington (2025)

After hearing thuds on the shack wall, three men went outside to investigate toward the outhouse. In the pitch dark beyond the outhouse they saw small pulsing dark-red lights that vanished when stared at directly and shifted position, with up to three seen at once. One man using a thermal scope saw no heat where the lights were but briefly saw a round white heat signature like a face peeking from behind a stump or tree, then later saw the pulsing red light; the lights eventually disappeared.

Sasquatch sighting in Washington (2019)

The same group returned a week later with daylight fading. They saw a basketball-sized bluish-white orb moving through trees, then on a moonlit road walk one witness saw a gray upright figure dart across the road in one or two steps. Back at the vehicle they found another greasy handprint, played vocalizations that were mimicked from very close behind them, and later heard faint distant whoops.

Son and father observe possible bigfoot family 17mi NE of Bellingham, near Sumas Mountain. See map

The witness and his father stopped at a clearcut at night and scanned with flashlights, spotting three sets of eyeshine at different heights. The largest figure charged uphill while vocalizing, then moved toward them breaking branches before everything went silent while the two smaller figures watched from the treeline. Around midnight the large figure re-emerged, stepped over a log and walked downhill bipedally with the other two following.

Chatter in Washington (2016)

The witness arrived before dawn to turkey hunt from a stick blind he had built the prior week. Before daylight he heard mumbling like people talking from in front and to the left. A tall hairy biped then stepped from brush, stood looking north, vocalized, left, returned, and was joined by a shorter female carrying an infant; both then walked west across the meadow and the witness left.

Vocalization in Washington (2015)

Three relatives spent Christmas night hiking and sitting in a truck on a snowy mountain. They heard childlike vocalizations, saw low eyeshine, then watched a dark six-foot figure with long arms peer from between trees. One of them left the truck and fired a rifle at it, heard nothing further, then heard heavy footsteps before leaving, returning next day to find no sign.

Sasquatch sighting in Washington (2014)

The witness and his father were sleeping in hammocks at a secluded lake camp. Around 2 a.m. the witness woke to a putrid smell and heavy breathing beside his hammock and saw an upright hair-covered figure with long arms and a flat face staring at his father's shelter and then at him before leaving almost silently. The next morning his father thought a bear had visited, and later that day while hiking along a riverbed they smelled the same odor in dead silence and turned back, packing up early.

June 2012 Morton, Lewis County, Washington Class A #35812

Early afternoon sighting by hiker near Morton

In the early afternoon the witness and companions were walking down an old logging road when they heard strange whistling, gurgling pig-like sounds and trees shaking nearby.

Companions farther away heard the whistles, thuds and thrashing but did not see the figure.
