Man tells of a possible nighttime encounter while burning garbage near Long Prairie

Two companions hauled garage trash to a brush burn pile near woods after dark and tended a large fire. They heard running around them in the dark and loud tree-limb breaking, then saw a tall dark figure move along the woods edge and duck in. They fled on the tractor and did not return that night.

October 1985 Silver Bay, Lake County, Minnesota Class A #4777

Daytime vocalizations and sighting by grouse hunters near Silver Bay along Lake Superior's north shore

Two companions hunting grouse in a remote swampy forest heard repeated loud howls and sensed a large animal moving nearby. They left their birds behind and headed toward the exit trail while the animal paralleled them through dense brush, stopping when they stopped. In a backlit clearing they observed the full outline of a tall, dark, hair-covered biped that crossed difficult terrain with remarkable speed. The animal ceased following as they reached a more traveled ridge trail.

September 1977 Cloquet, Carlton County, Minnesota Class B #9796

Man recalls multiple witness incident as a teenager camping south of Cloquet

Six teenagers were camped by a creek for overnight fishing and sat around a bonfire late in the evening. They heard footsteps approaching along the creek bed, noticed a strong unpleasant odor, and watched a very tall two-legged shadow circle their camp at a distance before continuing along the creek. They remained silent during the passing and did not search for tracks the next morning.
