Various incidents near a possible nest on Vancouver Island
A group of seven hikers were hiking on a mountain trail in the afternoon. They heard cackling, yelping, growling and moaning sounds and found the trail blocked by a large uprooted stump with placed boulders and smashed trees. Two upright figures, one black and one light brown and hairy, were seen moving parallel to the group and leaping down a cliff, while the group felt stalked and watched as they hurried out to the road.
Possible daylight sighting by hikers on the Stanley Glacier Trail (BC/Alberta border)
A group of six hiked down a mountain trail in the afternoon. A hair-covered biped crossed the trail between the lead hiker and the next person and leapt down an embankment into trees. The party glimpsed movement and heard crashing as a dog chased it, then watched a distant burnt tree sway with creaking before falling. Believing the creature pushed the tree over, the group left quickly.
Scream in British Columbia
A fish farm worker told the guest about a screamer on the high island by the farm that screamed, ran around, and threw rocks making big splashes. The next day it was low near the tide line screaming as two large trees fell into the water, and other shifts reported it returning in later years.
Movement only in British Columbia
While fly fishing, the witness saw large brown movement between trees and then found very large flat-footed barefoot tracks with splayed gripping toes and a midfoot bend. He followed them to a creek crossing showing very long strides up a bank. He then heard a deep chickadee-like whistle, answered it, feared it was signaling another individual, and fled.
