Cabin campers hear strange vocalizations

The witness was sleeping in a cabin with five others when loud, high-pitched patterned screams and yelps woke five occupants.

The witness later compared the screams to unidentified recordings and suggested they could have been a Bigfoot.

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.
