Sasquatch sighting near Richmond, New Hampshire (2020)

The witness was hiking a loop trail alone while geocaching in early spring. After hearing indistinct voices and what seemed like a person imitating an owl, the witness turned toward the sound near a pond and saw a tall, lean, black figure turning and dropping to the ground behind a stone wall about 40 yards away. The witness continued on, initially rationalizing it as a person, but later concluded it was not human due to its height, very long arms and odd movement.

The witness went to the rear deck with a shotgun and heard prolonged commotion including shaking trees in multiple spots, breaking limbs, running footsteps approaching the deck, and aggressive grunting very close by. They did not see anything, kept lights off out of fear, and then heard what sounded like several large creatures retreating to the tree line. The next day they found pushed-over bushes and freshly broken branches.
