Friends lost on backroads west of Olympia are stunned by a creature with large green eyes

The occupants of a pickup became lost on logging roads late at night and stopped after the reporter noticed huge glowing eyes ahead.

The form then moved rapidly up a brushy hillside as the group drove away frightened.

20 October 2006 Oak Harbor, Island County, Washington Class A #17903

Possible sighting by motorist on perimeter of Deception State Park

The witness was riding as a passenger northbound on Highway 20 toward Deception Pass Bridge in the afternoon. While looking out the passenger window into the treeline, she saw a humanlike, apparently unclothed figure sitting on a branch, leaning out and holding on with one arm while watching traffic below. The view lasted about two seconds and was backlit, showing only an outline with a sloping head; the driver did not see it and they did not turn around.

Forest worker has many encounters with bigfoot

Two forestry workers resurveying a remote allotment for a timber harvest reported being followed at a distance while smelling a heavy stench. During a break they heard large movement in the brush, threw a piece of wood toward the sound, and then saw the backlit shadows of four hair-covered figures behind bushes in a break of sunlight. The witness described two large males standing motionless, a thin female with a hump who vocalized and wrung her hands, and a smaller child-sized figure, before the light faded and the pair left the area to finish work later.

The witness reports an animal path remains visible at the crossing location.

Motorist returning from fireworks display gets a good look at a bigfoot near Ashford

After midnight while driving west toward Elbe, the witness saw a large hairy figure cross the highway ahead and enter fir trees. As the car closed the distance, the figure stepped onto the grass and pushed a fir bough from its face, showing a gorilla-like ear. The witness braked and turned toward the trees but the car stalled and the adult passenger became upset, so the witness left and returned the next day to look for sign.

Northeast Washington resident sees a bigfoot looking in the window

In late June or early July 1981, the witness was sleeping on the floor of a friend's home when awakened by an unusual humming and grumbling sound. She saw the outline of a large broad-shouldered figure with a muscular arm and hand cupped to look through a high upper window, which she estimated would require at least seven feet of height. The figure looked in for about a minute, then walked around the house into the woods as the humming resumed. A search the next morning found no tracks in the hard-packed dirt.

Two men witness three large individuals, two very large and the other about two-thirds their size

The witness and a companion who had left a training area early saw three large silhouetted figures across a moonlit meadow near a tree line.

They fled and hid under a low pine tree for about fifteen minutes, noticing a strong odor and sensing a nearby presence, before running to catch a bus.

Spring 1963 Brinnon WA, Jefferson County, Washington Class A #5299

Camping group has night time sighting near the Dosewallips River

The witness, then a teenager on a church group camping trip in the mountains, was sleeping apart from the group and watching the peaks. He noticed the jagged horizon looked smooth and swaying, realized it was the silhouette of a large standing animal at the foot of his sleeping bag, smelled a skunk-cabbage odor, hid under his bag, and later found it gone. Around the same time other children by a rock overhang shouted about seeing a big gorilla-like figure moving and walking away, which the adults dismissed.
