Possible night time sighting by a resident in the Carrizo neighborhood of Mescalero IR

After being awakened around 1 a.m. by barking dogs and loud screaming and hollering sounds that lasted about ten minutes and came closer, the witness looked out a window and saw a tall hairy man-like figure standing at another window looking in. The witness hid, then later saw the figure walking away into the dark carrying something. A sour body odor was noticed during the presence, and deer jerky hanging on the front porch was missing the next morning.

Campers hear vocalizations

The witness was camping with family when, the next morning, the witness and the father heard a high-pitched howl from the north followed by a deeper call from the west. The sounds stopped or were masked when a train passed to the north, and the father agreed he thought it was a sasquatch. No visual observation was reported.

Various incidents around Paul Lake Provincial Park outside Kamloops

The witness was hiking back toward the day-use lot in light rain after walking to the west end of the lake with a companion. After scuffing a foot on gravel, the witness heard a loud grunt and a large branch snap uphill, then saw a large reddish-brown hairy form crouched by a fallen tree about 40-50 ft away, partly hidden by undergrowth. The form stood, held an arm across the face area, looked back once, and left quickly and silently upright without dropping to all fours.

Woman experiences rock throwing, vocalization during walk

The witness was walking with a dog on a gravel road through woods when she heard repeated banging like something striking a tree. Two rocks were then thrown from the woods and narrowly missed her as she hurried away. Near a bend in the road she heard a loud low growl followed by a scream and fled running. She later learned a family member had been home the whole time and days later saw a large oddly shaped footprint near the roadside.

Vocalizations heard and rocks thrown at fisherman and family on Blue River

Three family members were night-fishing from a riverbank lit by a lantern when large objects began splashing into the water upstream, landing progressively closer over about 12 to 15 minutes. They never saw the objects or the thrower and heard no movement despite listening and sweeping with a search light. They had earlier heard distant high-pitched screams, and after a final close splash threw spray onto the bank they left on ATVs. The account was submitted by a coworker of one witness, not by a witness directly.

Possible vocalizations heard by campers near Lowman

A family was setting up camp at a remote site in the afternoon when loud high- and low-pitched screams were heard coming from nearby woods. The sounds seemed to come from different directions in turn and continued off and on for about 30 minutes. The reporting witness first wondered if people were playing by the river but later felt the sounds matched a presumed vocalization heard on a show.

1 June 2004 Bayfield, Archuleta County, Colorado Class B #9018

Campers driven off mountain by unseen intruders

Three campers were around a late-night campfire when they heard repeated series of deep two-tone howls from hills to the north and south and a loud tree-impact sound. One source of howls moved from about 100 yards west to about 50 yards in the treeline, appearing to exchange calls with a distant source while crashing through brush toward camp. Alarmed, the group packed under guard and drove out, hearing the howls again from about a mile behind them. They later interpreted the incident as possibly involving three large communicating beings.

Backpackers hear whoops and tree push over SE of Round Valley in the Mt. San Jacinto Wilderness Area

The witness and his son were in sleeping bags in their tent when they heard a loud low-pitched whooping call from boulders just above them. About an hour later the witness heard a loud boom close to the tent. Two mornings later he found a fresh green pine snapped at its base on the boulders near camp, which he inferred was pushed over by the animal that made the sounds.

Early morning vocalizations heard on three consecutive days

The witness reported hearing very loud whooping calls coming from the forested opposite ridge of the valley at dawn on three consecutive days in June 2004, with durations getting shorter each day. On the evening of the third day the witness heard a briefer, softer series of the same calls while outside with a friend. The sounds were described as unlike known local wildlife and were never heard again.

Man sees an upright creature jump across wooded trail

A couple walking on a gated two-track trail near the Trinity River at dusk claimed a rusty-red upright figure about six feet tall leapt across the trail about 40 yards ahead and disappeared into the woods in under a second. They ran to the crossing point and reported hearing it continue running through the woods, flushing birds, and the primary witness smelled a strong musky odor. They found no tracks but noted a clump of freshly uprooted trees nearby.

LEO recalls his daylight sighting as a youth with his horses NW of Atlanta

The witness was spending time with horses in a fenced pasture next to extensive woods when movement in brush near the barn drew attention and the horses ran toward the house. Thinking the partly obscured shape outside the fence might be a horse, the witness walked toward it and then saw a tall upright figure covered in reddish hair that grunted, looked at the witness, then pushed through small trees and brush leaving the area with loud heavy footsteps. The witness ran to the house and told relatives who were inside.

Woman tells of creature mumbling and breathing outside bedroom window

Late at night the witness arrived home by car and heard mumbling sounds and noticed an unfamiliar musky odor. Later in bed the witness heard breathing outside the window, heard the screen being pushed and the house struck hard enough to knock pictures down, and saw a tall massive outline that then left toward the creek. Other household members woke and together heard deep howls tapering higher, and a relative saw the upright hair-covered figure from another window.

Scream (2004)

The witness spent a spring day fishing and wading upstream alone. Near a recently fallen tree he encountered three dogs, one of which acted aggressively, then heard an extremely loud, powerful vocalization he could feel, saw riverside vegetation including a small tree whip and break, and had a stick splash down in front of him though no person was visible. He left the creek frightened.

Hunter hears strange cry, sees creature

The witness estimated it was about 7.5 feet tall with long dark brown hair and arms extending almost to the knees.

Pedestrian has nighttime sighting along the Red River

Around 2:30 a.m. on a clear night, the witness was walking home along a road paralleling a river when a strong bad odor and a loud splash drew attention to the water. About 60 feet away, a large, broad-shouldered, dark, long-haired figure stood upright in the river and appeared to be fishing, moving, splashing, and pausing to look around. The witness watched for several minutes while continuing down the road before leaving the area.

Rural residents disturbed by nighttime activity near Buffalo Creek

Throughout spring 2004 the witness and several neighbors repeatedly heard what sounded like a bipedal creature walking through woods at night, often while area dogs barked intensely. Plants outside the witness's window were found repeatedly flattened and scratching was heard on a neighbor's house. In May the witness heard a loud distant scream described as a classic Bigfoot scream. The disturbances stopped abruptly in July.
