Campers describe early AM approach near Coldwater Creek Campground outside Yacolt

A couple sleeping in their parked SUV at a logging-road campsite were awakened around 2:30 a.m. when the wife felt a firm touch on her leg through a partially open rear window and then heard light footfalls moving away. Neither witness saw anything when listening and peeking out. In the morning they found very large muddy fingerprints on the vehicle near the window.

Teenager recounts his sighting as a very young boy on his property near Yacolt

A young child who had gone about fifty yards from the house to pick thimbleberries claimed a large white-furred creature rose up from behind the bushes within a few feet. The child observed broad shoulders, long arms at its sides, and a human-like head shape for a few seconds before running back to the house in terror. No one else saw the creature, and later searches found no tracks or hair.

While constructing "fort," young teenager has afternoon sighting in Amboy off Rotschy Road

When about 13, the witness was building a fort in the woods with a sibling when loud noise with breaking branches and barking dogs drew attention. About 250-300 yards away on a hillside, the witness saw three dogs chasing a gorilla-like figure moving on two legs with large striding steps. The sibling heard the commotion but did not see the figure. The witness later told relatives but says few believed the account.

Witnesses hear odd, loud vocalization while in the forest traveling on a logging road

Three young people were walking along a logging road after being dropped off from a truck. From about 10 yards downhill they heard vegetation rustling followed by an extremely loud, guttural, high-pitched yell that did not match any known local animal to them. Frightened, they ran about a mile back to the truck without looking back.

Large figure crosses the road in dawn hours near Battleground

As a high-school student waiting for the morning school bus at the top of a hill, the witness looked down a gravel road toward a lit area near a creek crossing. She claims a large unrecognized animal crossed the two-car-wide road in a single step. She was frightened, returned to the house and turned on the lights, and told no one at the time.
