Camper hears something walking around her tent

The witness camped alone in a tent after car trouble forced an unplanned overnight stop. Around 11:10 p.m. the witness was awakened by something lifting and dropping the picnic table, banging a fruit bowl, circling the tent with loud heavy bipedal steps, and making human-like wailing sounds. The witness stayed inside in fear and later heard it cross the stream and climb the hill. Next morning the fruit was untouched but the table was damaged and large human-like footprints were found nearby.

May 2007 Pinawa, Manitoba EP 389

Sasquatch sighting near Pinawa, Manitoba (2007)

The witness was on a solo early-morning walk by a lake and causeway when she first mistook a large dark animal for a bear. It stood up and moved with unusual fluidity, grimaced and vocalized, then retreated toward the treeline while a larger concealed animal roared, snapped trees and shook vegetation. As she backed out between granite rock piles, she saw a massive auburn-haired arm pressed flat against the rocks close to her. She eventually left the area and became physically ill from fear and adrenaline.
