Man sees an upright creature jump across wooded trail
A couple walking on a gated two-track trail near the Trinity River at dusk claimed a rusty-red upright figure about six feet tall leapt across the trail about 40 yards ahead and disappeared into the woods in under a second. They ran to the crossing point and reported hearing it continue running through the woods, flushing birds, and the primary witness smelled a strong musky odor. They found no tracks but noted a clump of freshly uprooted trees nearby.
Man recalls a late night encounter while parking in a remote area north of Splendora
Late on a spring night in 1979 or 1980, the witness had been parked in a truck on a pipeline with a companion for about 45 minutes. After hearing rustling ahead, the witness turned on the headlights and reported a very large hair-covered creature standing a few feet in front of the truck. The witness immediately reversed to leave, and when looking forward again the creature was gone.
Squirrel hunter has encounters not far from Trinity River
In 1978 the witness walked about a mile into the woods to a pin-oak flat and saw a gray, gorilla-like figure lying under a pine across the flat. He used trees for cover to stalk from about 100 yards to 50-75 yards, but it disappeared without him seeing it leave. He later found mashed grass and a strong animal odor at the spot and noted a complete absence of other wildlife.
