Mountain climbers hear loud scream on Mount St. Helens

The witness and six companions were climbing Mt. St. Helens in the morning when they heard a single loud scream from a snow-covered ridge about 100 yards away. They stopped and looked toward the ridge with excellent visibility but saw no movement. They judged the sound unlike a human, elk, coyote, or dog, and the witness later concluded it was Bigfoot after comparing it to a 1978 recording.

Big tracks with huge stride found

A family of five driving between Grand Prairie and Tumbler Ridge stopped on Boot Lake Road and found large barefoot human-like footprints in snow in a roadside ditch.

They estimated the size and stride but did not follow or photograph them because the children were frightened.

Hunter catches glimpse of biped on snowy road

The driver was traveling at night in light snow with a young child passenger when headlights revealed a large upright figure near the road. The figure moved downhill on two legs with long strides and a large upper body, which the driver felt differed from a bear. The driver stopped where the figure left the road and noticed smeared tracks in mud and snow leading downhill but did not follow them. The driver later said he believed the figure was likely a bigfoot.

Hunter experiences object throwing and vocalizations near Onego

The witness was climbing a steep ridge before dawn with hunting gear when his light revealed three or four sets of yellow eyes about 60 yards ahead. One set rose vertically and maintained eye contact as the group moved off across a hollow without showing deer traits like a white tail or snort. Shortly after, a heavy object landed near him, which he later interpreted as thrown, followed by guttural vocalizations unlike known wildlife and a skunky odor at a suspected bedding area.

Family marvels at huge barefoot tracks in snow

Two relatives of the witness found two large barefoot-like prints in fresh snow off a road near their cabin and brought the witness to see them. He compared his size 10 1/2 shoe to one print and estimated it was about 14 inches long and twice as wide, with a slight arch curve. The prints were noted as fairly far apart, and the witness questioned who would be barefoot in that isolated area.
