Tracks in Washington (2019)

On return visits to the same trail, the witness and companions left recorders and apples placed high, found large sideways hillside steps with no deer or elk tracks, and later were told recorders captured bipedal activity hours after they left. On a later off-trail visit they found odd tree structures and a 14-inch by 4-inch track, plus a partial track on another visit. About a month before the show he heard a double chest-thump sound while exiting.

During a daytime walk they found an old large track, opened clam shells out of place, a fresh vine-maple twist tucked behind a fir, an 18-inch footprint beneath it, and several pushed or tossed trees. That night in camp they heard branch-breaking, felt the tarps pulled, heard splashing, felt vibration waves, and heard two wood knocks before leaving exhausted in the morning.

While target shooting a family observes a large bi-ped in a blackberry patch near the town of Rainier

The witness and four companions were pausing in a hay field during a target-practice outing when the witness spotted a large dark figure rising from a blackberry patch. The figure walked across a trail, paused by a fir tree and looked toward the group, then continued into an adjacent field. The group went to the spot, found flattened brush and a bent-grass trail, estimated the figure's height against the tree, took photos, and then heard knocking beats and hooting sounds after birds flushed and dogs barked in the distance.

Unidentified sound near Lake Chelan, Washington (1985)

Two hikers ascended from Lake Chelan toward Cub Lake on a sunny summer afternoon. After entering the lake basin they repeatedly heard large trees falling nearby about every two minutes and felt the ground thud, with about five falls on the way in and five more while leaving. They never saw any trees fall or anything unusual. Feeling unsafe, they turned back and descended to camp, interpreting the sounds as something trying to drive them away.
