Two witnesses and possible double sighting in the Waiparous Creek Provincial Recreation Area

The witness and companions were riding off-road vehicles on a forest trail in early afternoon. The witness watched a dark single-colored upright figure across a creek for under a minute before it took two long smooth strides into dense woods to the east. After later discussion a companion reported simultaneously watching a second similar figure that left the trail to the west. No tracks were sought at the time because both initially assumed the figures were people.

Strange, tall creature seen crossing the road at Kennedy Lake

The witness and a relative were stranded after a vehicle breakdown and were flagging traffic with flashlights. About an hour after dark they saw the silhouette of a tall, very skinny biped cross the road about 30-40 feet away toward the lake. It walked upright with a slow, smooth gait and large steps, described as kid-like, smaller than a standing bear, with long arms and a humpbacked appearance.

Couple reports possible stalking near abandoned rural graveyard outside town of Valley
