17 November 2006 Payson, Gila County, Arizona Class A #23358

Late night road side sighting near Tonto Creek

The witness was driving late at night when bright side lights illuminated a tall, light-colored figure standing off the road beside a road sign. The figure was briefly seen while driving past and appeared to be waiting to cross. Sleeping family members did not see it, and a later return to the spot showed no trees or brush that could explain it.

December 1983 Strawberry Arizona 17 Miles North Of Payson, Gila County, Arizona Class A #7495

Night time road crossing near Strawberry, Arizona

The witness and a companion were driving slowly on a dirt lane through ponderosa pine forest at night when their headlights illuminated a tall hair-covered figure crossing from left to right in front of the car. The figure walked upright with a human-like gait and continued into the woods without looking at or reacting to the car. The witness estimated it at about seven feet tall and 400 pounds with camel-colored hair and a barrel chest.

A quick ask from the person behind the Anomadex: if you allow analytics, Google Analytics shows me which places, phenomena and searches you're most curious about. That tells me which regions and sources to add next and what to make easier to find. It never sees your name or anything you send me, and nothing is set unless you say yes. Privacy
