Recollection of spotting a tall figure cross a trail at dusk near Norris Lake
At dusk the witness and her young son were leading family members back along a wooded trail after fishing when a tall dark hairy figure crossed the trail just ahead of them and vanished into dense vegetation. The witness described it as very tall and bulky with long hair and long arms swinging as it moved quickly in a slumped posture. Her son also glimpsed the figure, but relatives behind a bend saw nothing, and the group heard no further sounds and did not search for tracks.
Two friends get spooked by a possible encounter near Norris Lake
Two companions rode an ATV to a clearing by a lake and built a large fire at night. Over the evening they heard deliberate footfalls, pacing and stick breaks in the treeline about sixty yards away and noticed the woods go silent. After the witness knocked on a tree and made a whoop call, they heard knocks in reply and then a long deep guttural growl. They rode toward the sound without seeing anything, then put out the fire and left feeling watched and frightened.
