Man finds 3-toed prints & wife has sighting
During modern-gun deer season the witness was walking on a road between two fields when he noticed footprint-like impressions in the road and at the field edge. He returned the next morning to photograph one impression with a shotgun and boot for scale. He described it as about boot-length, wider than a bare foot, with three toes, and interpreted several impressions as a running stride toward a nearby thicket.

Trout fishermen encounter unnerving sounds & rock throwing in Joccasee Gorge
Three college roommates hiked to the Thompson River to fish and camp overnight. After dark they repeatedly heard a childlike crying sound from a nearby ridge, had small river stones tossed into camp, and later heard loud knocks alternating with the cries. At daylight they hiked out, noticing concentrated scat and disturbed ground near oak trees, and concluded the activity was not from a person.
Hiker finds footprints and hears communicating sounds
The witness traveled to woods near Eagle Lake to camp overnight and listen for unusual sounds. In the afternoon he found elongated foot-like impressions, including one 12-inch print with four toes. After dark from a tree stand he heard repeated wood-on-wood strikes, a tree falling without cracking, footsteps uphill out of sight, and prolonged human-like hooting from multiple directions, followed by hours of silence. He left on foot around 3 a.m. without further incident.
Possible footprints found five miles east of Vandalia

Large bipedal animal frequently observed by a South Dakota family
A family reports seeing an unidentified tall biped around their rural home over four years, usually at night. The creature is described as 7 to 9 feet tall, walking upright with a slight hunch and running too fast to follow. Footprints, hair, possible saliva, blood stains, and snapped small trees were also found on the property. Up to nine family members in three houses have seen it when arriving, leaving, or moving between houses.
Three sets of tracks found
Two bear hunters on foot found three sets of large footprints traveling together in a muddy flat back in the woods. The prints were in a low area filled with rain water and were judged to be fairly recent because the edges lacked degradation. A single plaster cast of the largest print was made within 24 hours, but the cast was poor due to inexperience.
Family finds track and scat pile while hiking southeast of Mt. St. Helens
The witness and relatives stopped at a meadow while fishing and scouting for elk sign. The witness found three large fresh scats of unrecognized plant-based material and a large humanlike footprint beside one scat.

15-16 inch and 8-10 inch very fresh tracks found in the mud.
Two companions hiked 2 to 3 miles into isolated terrain to scout bear-hunting locations. While crossing a breached beaver dam they found three sets of very fresh, large tracks in soft mud with long strides that left the mud and climbed a steep rocky hill. They reported feeling watched shortly before the find, felt shaken, and left the area quickly with no further incident.
Huge human-like footprints discovered
The witness and a companion hiked into a remote area beside Cedar Lake to collect ancient amber. While wading along the flooded shoreline the day after hiking in, they found fresh, huge human-like footprints in a sandy area that led west into the swamp. The prints were described as 14-15 inches long, narrow for their length, with a running stride and deep depressions. They recorded the prints and surrounding swamp with a video camera.
Fourteen inch by six inch tracks found
The witness was day-hiking alone in a remote wilderness area when they noticed a strong sickly-sweet, garlic-like odor they could not source. In the same area they heard a screeching vocalization they did not recognize as bear, mountain lion, or raptor. They also found large footprints near where they had eaten lunch, measuring about 14 by 6 inches, which they felt were not bear tracks but could not positively identify due to hard rocky ground.
Family on their way home see a large, hairy creature cross the road
Four people driving home reported a large hairy bipedal figure crossing the road in front of them and disappearing into brush toward a river. They described it as about seven feet tall and ape-like, covering a roughly 35-foot-wide road in four to five steps. They later returned to look for tracks and reported finding unfamiliar inward-pointing prints, but no other sounds or signs.
Two unsusual man-like tracks discovered
The witness reports finding two unknown animal footprints on a sandy area near a river bar, with one print destroyed by stepping and the other identified as a clear right foot. The prints appeared to be a week or more old and were heading from the forest toward the river. The witness photographed the remaining print and hoped to return for a cast and measurements.
Another nighttime incident near Hoadley, off Hoadley Road (Wayne Nat. For.)
The witness and a companion camped in Wayne National Forest over a holiday weekend. After mimicking animal sounds in the evening, the witness stayed awake through the night hearing crashes, footsteps, grunts and mimicking speech, and saw eye shine high off the ground. In the morning the pair found a snapped tree, strong odor, widely spaced ground marks and a five-toed partial print, which the witness attributed to a large visitor.
Twenty-two inch tracks found
The witness reports discovering four large, bare human-like footprints with five toes that followed a deer path down a hill and crossed a dirt road. The tracks in soft ground sank 2 to 3 inches, while those on the hard road left only dirt in foot shape. The witness measured the tracks at 22 inches long with an eight-foot spacing and tried to follow them but was stopped by rocks.
Two witnesses find tracks, and arranged animal remains, in Woodbury Gameland
The witness states they began studying Woodbury gameland in 1998 after hearing of a Bigfoot sighting there. During the first visit, they report finding a three-toed impression estimated at 14 inches long and 6 inches wide. No animal or figure was seen at that time.
Tracks in Idaho (1998)
Years later the witness and a hunting partner took horses into a wilderness area for a multi-day hunt. While scouting alone on a high ridgetop, he found five large barefoot tracks along a snowdrift that punched through snow that held his own weight. He brought his partner to see them, and the partner became nervous, so they packed up and rode out through the night.
Boundary Peak area, three witnesses observe strange humanlike tracks
While camping, three people waded across a flooded creek after climbing a nearby peak and noticed a set of blurred, fuzzy-edged footprints on the far side that had not been present an hour earlier. The prints were roughly human-foot sized. Later that evening they discussed the find around a campfire with a passing patrol agent, who said similar prints were known locally as Little Foot.
Huge footprints discovered in a Duvall garden
The witness discovered two very large footprints in the freshly tilled soil of a front-yard vegetable garden about four or five years before reporting. The witness called over two relatives, and all three viewed the prints, which were described as deep, wide, and spaced too far apart to be human. No photograph or plaster cast was made. The garden sits on an unfenced property in the Cascade foothills surrounded by heavily wooded land with a creek nearby.
