Wood knock in British Columbia (2023)

During a summer expedition the witness and two companions followed responsive knocking sounds through forest toward a cut line. They exchanged mouth pops, whistles and rock strikes and repeatedly received two and sometimes three knocks back, including pops that seemed to come from the top of a large isolated tree. After sitting and listening for 30 to 45 minutes they found a large track and smaller juvenile-like tracks in moss nearby before leaving as the sounds stopped.

Hunter finds possible tracks just off a logging road close to Harrison Lake (w/photos)

The witness and his son were hunting and looking for sasquatch sign in a clearcut late in the day. The witness found a line of very fresh barefoot-like tracks on a gravel bank that made a sharp turn toward the road, with one showing a crescent of toes. He concluded a sasquatch had passed minutes earlier. After heavy rain eroded the tracks, he photographed the site and cast the one track that retained detail.

20 June 2006 Mesachie Lake, British Columbia Class A #15274

Early morning sighting on Vancouver Island near Cowichan Lake

While driving to work before dawn on a logging road, the witness encountered a dark figure on the road and initially assumed it was a bear. As headlights illuminated it, the figure was seen running bipedally down the road for about 100 feet before veering off through a ditch and up a bank into bushes. The witness described a tall, dark-haired, unclothed biped with lighter patches on its back and rump that never looked back. Later that day the witness found and photographed indistinct footprints at the site.

Possible tracks and vocalizations outside Lumby

On Jan 14, the witness and his girlfriend hiked from the field across the creek to an old skidder trail. There they found large, widely spaced footprints in deep crunchy snow that the witness could only match at a semi-run and that crossed a fallen log without disturbing the snow on top. Nearby they saw a tree with bark stripped all around the lower five feet. Feeling unsafe, they stopped investigating and left the area.

Firefighters find footprint in alpine area near Golden
