24 September 2009 Potosi, Iron County, Missouri Class B #26694

Possible nighttime encounter while camping near Potosi

The witness was camping in brush with family members. About 4:30am on the first night he awoke to a strong skunk-like odor and a feeling of being watched. He rolled over and made out a very broad-shouldered silhouette with a head between trees about seven yards away. He turned away without telling family and waited for daylight, and the group left early after two nights.

17 November 1996 Sidnaw, Iron County, Michigan Class B #20579

Possible Sighting by Deer Hunter in the Ottawa National Forest

During the November 1996 deer season, the witness was walking back to camp just after dusk when he saw a dark, very large man-like silhouette standing in the trail about 50 yards ahead. After he spoke to it, the figure silently stepped off the trail into dense cover and vanished. He waited, then passed the spot with his rifle ready, and a next-day search found no sign because fresh snow had fallen.

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
