Cousins view a large biped figure on opening day near Virginia City

On opening morning of deer season two cousins riding in the back of a pickup scanning a sage meadow spotted a large dark figure about 250 yards away. They watched it for about 10 seconds as it faced them, slightly bent forward with an arm on its knee, appearing motionless. When the truck stopped and backed up to regain the view the figure was gone. The cousins continued hunting that morning while feeling as if watched.

Four climbers report repeated vocalizations

Five campers at a basecamp on Mt. Snowy late at night heard a long loud vocalization coming from a ridge behind camp. The sound began like a low growl and rose to a high howling scream, repeating several times over an extended period while seeming to move farther away. The men, experienced in the woods, said it did not match known animals, and a search the next morning found no sign.

A group hiked to remote mountain lakes and fished. The witness heard branches breaking and a very loud wood-on-wood knock, then smelled a strong foul stench. Pine cones landed sideways next to the witness and large tracks were seen in smashed grass, with a sense of being watched and shadowed until leaving the plateau. No creature was seen.

Hunting party reports frightening vocalization

Six hunters in pairs heard a distant high-pitched scream likened to a rusty gate while hunting elk south of Indian Meadows trailhead in the afternoon. Two hunters who were closer to the sound were badly disturbed and left the area on game trails. No one saw the source and no tracks were found.
