BFRO Investigator videotapes encounter in Daniel Boone National Forest

An investigator hiked with two companions to the top of a rocky ridge at night to look into recurring activity. While the companions scanned with night vision and a camcorder, the investigator illuminated a sasquatch-like figure standing close below the rocks with a headlamp and watched it withdraw and walk away. The companions recorded eyeshine in the opposite direction, suggesting a second animal, and the group heard footsteps following them as they descended. They later reviewed the tape and confirmed eyeshine had been recorded.

Family records possible vocalizations in daylight near Mt. Zion Cemetery

A group visiting a remote cemetery heard an extremely loud, unearthly yell-like sound coming from about 1000 yards away past a fallen tree across Sugar Creek. The witnesses said it was not a known farm animal and captured it on a camcorder, though quieter on playback. They also noticed a dank, musty odor on the breeze apparently coming from the direction of the sound.

8 August 2005 Wright's Lake, El Dorado County, California Class A #15821

Backpacker's moonlit encounter near the trail from Wright's Lake to Enchanted Pools

While camping alone at night near a stream, the witness heard a deep growl and saw a crouched dark mass at the treeline, fired warning shots, then heard rocks repeatedly splashing in the stream for hours and heard deep oof sounds on a later approach. Near dawn a very tall hair-covered female-like figure stood by the tent and walked rapidly toward the witness despite additional warning shots, then ran away over granite and out of sight. The witness remained in place until daylight and then hiked out.

31 August 2002 Leadville, Park County, Colorado Class B #4897

Family finds and hears compelling evidence near Leadville

A family hiking around a high-elevation lake above treeline near Leadville found footprint-like depressions in moss between glacial rocks and found additional depressions on further search. They also noted moss torn from boulders, chewed, and left in neat piles, and heard grouped rapping sounds on each of three visits over three days. They recorded the tracks and moss on video and made a cast of one track. No animal was seen.

4 July 2002 Strawberry, Tuolumne County, California Class B #4650

Campers find stacked rocks and hear unusual rock banging near Strawberry

The witness was camping with two companions and hiked to a large rock formation in the evening. After feeling watched and returning to camp, the group heard repetitive clinking/banging sounds that seemed to answer from different directions for about twenty minutes. The next morning while packing, they heard the sounds again and the witness tried to mimic them with rocks and wood without getting a clear response.

21 July 1999 Marion County, Oregon Class B #689

Witnesses heard what they described as a "roaring scream"

Two people fishing from a dock in the evening heard a powerful roaring scream from the west along the lake. About half a minute later a fisherman came running from the direction of the sound, appearing panicked. The two joined him and all three ran together back to the nearby campground, where he said something had been right next to him. They then broke camp and drove home.

June 1998 Randle, Skamania County, Washington Class B #1647

Witness heard what sounded like sticks being beaten on wood

The witness stopped on a bridge over a washed-out creek to videotape the creek bed while sightseeing. While filming he heard heavy wood-on-wood strikes from the left answered from the right at varying intervals, which he verified was not an echo. Feeling anxious, he returned to his idling vehicle and left, and a relative later reviewed the tape where the beats were faintly audible and recorded an interview with the witness that evening.

6 June 1996 Humboldt County, California Class B #1665

Thirteen and a half inch track found at Fish Lake (near Bluff Creek).

The witness found two unusual footprints in the evening and made plaster casts and footage of them.

Upon exiting the tent with a flashlight, the witness saw and smelled nothing, then packed up and left.

Witnesses hear unusual screams while hunting & note local Indian stories regarding Bigfoot

The witness and three companions were hunting deer at dusk in brushy river bottomland. While separated along irrigation canals and field edges, they heard prolonged loud screaming with gurgling and hooting from about 100 yards away in dark woods. Frightened, they regrouped, fled to their vehicle, picked up the fourth hunter on the road, and left the area.

Two young men have a face to face encounter

The witness and his cousin heard noises outside the house for about 20 minutes and went into the backyard with a flashlight. They saw a tall hair-covered figure standing just beyond a six-foot fence staring at them. After a few seconds they ran back inside frightened. The next morning they found two deep impressions in the sandy soil beyond the fence.

Sasquatch sighting

The guest's cousin and another officer answered a frantic call that a Bigfoot was banging on and shaking a single-wide trailer. The first unit spotlit it sitting on the porch, it stood and approached, a revved engine in neutral startled it, then it fled to a creek when the cousin arrived. Both dashcam recordings were gone the next morning.

Sasquatch sighting

Over about four years residents moved discarded tires together, chained and painted them, and hung them, provoking tire-throwing, growling, and nighttime visits. Videos via direct camera and mirror captured a fence jump, two large figures wrestling over tires, and a much taller figure dispersing them. The teller visited later, measured the fence, and noted fresh sign.

Sasquatch sighting

The guest and two companions sat at a creek bed late at night with thermal imagers, one recording through a phone. They watched a figure slowly lean from behind a tree showing a cone-shaped head, shoulder and arm, withdraw, reappear, then a second similar figure appear about 20 to 25 feet away. After one companion hiked out, he radioed that he heard a whoop and felt followed.

Wood knock in Washington

In January the witness and a friend slept in a pickup near the site. At night they heard stick drumming back and forth, felt something push the door and slap the glass, and heard a food bucket being moved for about an hour. The audio recorder disappeared, and next-morning backpack video showed a figure ducking behind two trees by the truck.

Vocalization in Idaho

The witness climbed alone into a remote hidden valley he had wanted to explore for sign and chewed bones. While eating lunch he heard a bark from behind, did a tree knock, and shortly after heard a tree being pushed over to his left. He saw a very dark massive shape in cover and chose to leave for safety rather than approach.

Sasquatch sighting in Idaho

After months finding large tracks around remote mountain lakes, the witness hiked between lakes filming and felt watched in unusual quiet. He heard tree knocks from front and behind and felt surrounded while filming himself. He later found in the video a large figure peering beside a tree about 30 to 40 feet away and a white face high in another tree.

Scream in Guadalcanal

Alone up a river the witness followed a fresh game trail past a foul-smelling marked tree, then heard a loud scream below and movement above in thick jungle. He retreated into the creek as three creatures surrounded him, talking with clicks, showing dog-like eyeshine, and moving as shadows. In the last light one four-and-a-half to five-foot silhouette with long arms squatted at the water's edge staring before bolting when a laser pointer hit it, and he floated downstream to camp.
