History of incidents in Mazatal Mountains, Arizona

Just after WWI, a miner leading burros loaded with ore met two upright creatures blocking a canyon trail. After a brief standoff he led his animals around them and continued. On his return trip they were gone. He later described them as a large heavy male about eight feet tall and a shorter lighter female.

The Database of Unexplained Encounters. Claims are recorded as claims: the Anomadex catalogues what people reported, where it was reported, and how sure I am that it was read correctly. It does not rule on what they saw.

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
