Campers hear late night "banging" near Oroville
The witness and four companions camped overnight at Feather Falls campground and went to sleep around 1 AM. Sometime later while still dark, the witness heard rhythmic banging like a large branch struck against tree trunks from two separate distant locations, with patterns repeated back and forth and never overlapping. Companions who heard the sounds attributed them to a woodpecker, which the witness doubted because of the nighttime hour and irregular intervals. No vocalizations were heard.
Forestry Worker Observes a Sasquatch in Clear-Cut Near Feather River
The witness was working alone in a remote clearcut counting planted trees when loud noise drew attention to the brush edge. A tall upright creature about 110 to 125 yards away paused leaning its forearms on a bent tree for about 45 seconds while looking back. It then stood, took two steps, and disappeared; the witness did not search for tracks and continued working.
Several reports of vocalization sounds.
A resident went to the outhouse around 2 or 3 in the morning and heard something very large moving on two legs through dense brush toward him. The creature made deep guttural grunts that sounded aggressive and left the resident feeling severely threatened. The resident ran back to the house while hearing it follow below the trail.
Sighting by bow hunter / motorist at 6:30 AM near Butte Creek
Around 6:30 a.m. the witness was driving down into a campground area when they noticed a large dark shape moving through willows along a creek about 200 yards downstream from a bridge. The figure first looked like a person but moved with a very fluid walk and pronounced arm swing unlike a person. By the time the witness alerted a companion the figure was gone, and a later check of the gravelly area found disturbed rocks but no footprints.
