Tribal government employee photographs line of tracks in snow
A witness visited a highway south of Mandaree a day after hearing of a reported sighting and found a long line of large footprints in snow running parallel to the road. The trackway was estimated at over 200 prints with a long stride. Photos taken two days after the tracks were made showed only large round impressions because warm weather had melted detail.
Possible footprints found in snow outside Marquette
The witness and a companion were walking up a remote dirt road at night looking for snowboarding hills when they heard a strange sound and found large bare-foot-like prints with visible toes in the snow. After discussing the prints, which were wider and longer than a 12-inch flashlight with a very long stride, a nearby tree began shaking violently and dropping snow and branches, prompting them to run back to the car and leave.

The witness drove to an abandoned homestead to take sunset photographs. While walking back to the truck through knee-deep snow he heard twigs snapping and footsteps running through thick woods alongside him.

Mother and daughter find footprints in snow near Judy Gap
The witness and her daughter were driving on a remote dirt road about six miles off the main road when they noticed very large barefoot-like footprints in snow. The prints were larger than a size 12 shoe, had a longer second toe, and led up the mountain across a fence, which they did not follow. On follow-up the witness reported finding four prints measuring at least sixteen inches long, noting the maker crossed a four-foot fence without a change in stride.
Possible vocalization east of Ft.Myers
The witness and a teenage helper were hauling cut branches on a relative's wooded property in the late afternoon when they heard three loud, deep whoop-like sounds from a swampy area.

Huge animal screams and circles campsite at Finger Lake Park
Four people were camping around a campfire at Rocky Fork Lake in July 2004 when a large animal came from the woods to the south, circled the campsite three times at close range, and ran toward the lake emitting a high-pitched howl and pig-like squeals before running behind the camp. The group later noticed smeared foot impressions at the site, but rain had obscured detail and no identifiable evidence was preserved.
Couple hears strange night time howls across stream from their home
On a winter evening at home, the witness went outside with the dog and heard prolonged loud howling he did not recognize.

After comparing internet animal sounds they felt the howls most closely resembled an alleged Ohio howl recording, but a later check of the area found no tracks.
Possible tracks found by snowshoers near Steamboat Springs
The witness and a companion were snowshoeing off trail and became stuck in a steep ravine. They found a trackway of large human-like footprints with a long stride ascending a very steep slope through deep snow. They judged the tracks unlike deer, elk, bear, or human due to depth, stride, and lack of drag marks.
Hiker Hears Loud Vocalizations and Thumps
The witness sat near a swamp waiting for frogs to resume and heard rapid deep thumping from a hillside across the swamp, followed by a second similar series some distance away on the same hill. Shortly after, a short constant hollow call came from each thumping area in turn. The witness stated the sounds were not woodpeckers and asked whether such thumping indicates proximity.
Possible bigfoot activity near Walker County line.
Late at night after returning from work, the witness let dogs outside and heard prolonged loud screams, deep throaty sounds, wood clacking and tree-breaking noises attributed to two unseen sources apparently fighting.

Four nocturnal hikers get pelted with snow near Anchorage
The witness and three companions took a late-night winter walk on game and recreational trails in the woods. On the way back they heard footsteps and branches breaking around them and something repeatedly threw snow or hard snow clods at them, while dogs barked nearby and a rank carcass-like odor was noticed. They jogged most of the way out, leaving around 3-3:30 a.m., and the witness believed deep snow ruled out a prank by a person.
Child has daytime sighting near Grass Valley
A child walking home from the bus stop through woods climbed onto a stump and noticed a tall black figure about 15 feet away breathing heavily and rocking with its arms at its sides.

Campers Hear Unusual Evening Sounds
Two campers spent a rainy night at a campground after noticing a skunk-like odor on arrival. Through the night they heard ape-like hoots, single-note whistles, repeated wood-on-wood whacks from several directions, heavy two-legged footsteps, and nearby rockslides. They saw nothing in the dark and left the next morning, noting the steep bowl-shaped hillside could carry sounds from far uphill.
Possible pre-dawn vocalization heard by hunter near Ferrum
The witness arrived in darkness to hunt deer from a tree stand on private land.

Possible track and vocalizatons at Table Rock Lake
The witness reports finding a single large human-like footprint in mud at the back of a lake cove while scouting for animal sign. The print was much larger and deeper than his own tracks and sat isolated in the washout, leading him to infer a difficult leap between rocky shorelines unlikely for a barefoot human. He notes the find alongside earlier strange vocalizations, while acknowledging mundane explanations remain possible.
Unusual call silenced coyotes, frightened dog
On November 5, 2003 at about 9:30 p.m., the witness was outside with her dog at her home near the base of a mountain when she heard a loud, long drawn-out human-like 'ahhhh' sound from across the field. Coyotes that had been howling stopped for about 30 minutes and later resumed from a different location, and her large dog tucked its tail and ran home. The witness did not see the source, did not recognize it as any known wildlife, and said she felt it may have been a Sasquatch.
