Boy scout hears repeated screams
As a young scout camping overnight in a tent away from the main camp, the witness lay awake while his tent mate slept. He heard repeated loud vocalizations from a distance that started low, rose higher with a warbling quality, then faded. The sounds continued for about an hour and at times seemed to get closer, while he remained motionless and silent in his sleeping bag.
Man recounts being chased as a teen
The witness and a cousin stopped for lunch in a small clearing while scouting in dense mountain forest. They heard loud snapping and movement circling the clearing, then the cousin fired a handgun into the air. A loud low-to-high roar answered, and repeated yells pursued them as they ran downhill for about a mile without ever seeing the source.
Late night up-close encounter in the Umpqua Nat'l Forest near Toketee Falls
The witness and a companion were sleeping on the ground at camp while deer hunting after forgetting tent poles. During the night the witness felt fingers touching his beard and smelled a strong odor. After he sat up and shouted, something large moved away through brush on two legs making loud leaf-crunching noise. No tracks were found with a flashlight, and the witness later concluded it was a Bigfoot.
Cousins followed for a quarter mile
The witness and a relative drove into a forested area near lava flows and walked a short distance down a trail to watch the sunset. They heard grunting and other sounds and noticed bushes moving as something appeared to follow them for about a quarter mile. Back at the car, something very close screamed and shook the bushes violently, frightening them into quickly driving away.
