Man recalls primate-like vocalization and rocks thrown at a fishing area in the Rvierside Conservation Area

They then heard an unfamiliar ape-like yowl and huffing sounds from the same direction. They saw nothing and left the area immediately.

Odd sounds and animal behavior from the forest cause woman concern

In summer 2000 the witness arrived at friends' secluded, wooded residence near Lovells in early evening to find no one home. While sitting outside, the witness heard movement in the woods and heavy grunt-like vocalizations, initially considering coyotes or a bear. Feeling unnerved, the witness left and returned later, and the residents jokingly attributed the sounds to a local Bigfoot and mentioned their own prior unexplained experiences.

Man recalls incident while camping as a teenager near Cedarville

Two teenagers camped on a mountain logging road were harassed by thrown sticks, loud grunting and tree-banging sounds, and a strong foul odor. When they shone a light into the woods about 25 yards away, they saw a very tall fur-covered figure that ducked behind a tree. They put out their fire and fled down the trail, saying the figure followed them most of the way back.
