1962 Crandon, Wisconsin #e82c62e7-71bc-4b23-8731-e374b5c867ba

Sasquatch sighting near Crandon, Wisconsin (1962)

At age 12 the guest and her older cousin went into thick woods near the family lake cabin to pick raspberries and became lost after filling buckets. While arguing about the way out, the guest saw a tall, lean, hairy man-like figure at very close range that studied her, moved its mouth, and held its hands out before looking toward the cousin. The figure then disappeared quickly, and the two children dumped their berries and ran out via a logging road to the grandmother's house, keeping the incident secret for years.

Full-body sighting near Jefferson, Wisconsin (1936)

Scream in Wisconsin

The witness and a companion were dropped off for a multi-day navigation and survival exercise in northern Wisconsin and camped behind a pond. While standing at the shelter in the late afternoon, something on a low ledge behind camp let out a long loud scream that ended high-pitched. The two grabbed pistols, rushed the slope, and found nothing visible despite clear viewing conditions. They spent an uneasy night and left before daylight.
