Vocalizations heard and animal observed near Hibbing
The husband got up early and heard an unfamiliar calling sound, so he went outside to get mail and look for the source. Near his car he saw a fur-covered bipedal figure about 50 feet away in pines, watched it briefly, then it noticed him and ran toward the woods and field. He later found large pressed-down footprints in grass, and the spouse's father found scat in the same area said to differ from deer or bear.
Daytime vocalizations and sighting by grouse hunters near Silver Bay along Lake Superior's north shore
Two companions hunting grouse in a remote swampy forest heard repeated loud howls and sensed a large animal moving nearby. They left their birds behind and headed toward the exit trail while the animal paralleled them through dense brush, stopping when they stopped. In a backlit clearing they observed the full outline of a tall, dark, hair-covered biped that crossed difficult terrain with remarkable speed. The animal ceased following as they reached a more traveled ridge trail.
Memory told of seeing an upright figure walk into a shooting lane while hunting near Nashwauk
The witness was deer hunting from a stand when he heard an unfamiliar grunt. He watched a tall brown hair-covered figure approach to about 50 yards, yelled at it, and saw it turn to look before walking away toward cedars. He later returned with his father and estimated its height at about eight feet using nearby tree branches.
