Campers on Mount Graham experience possible intimidation behavior
The witness family was tent-camping at a site on Mt [name withheld]. Between 1 and 4 a.m., after the husband re-entered the tent, the witness and her daughter saw a tall thin figure walk quickly past the tent in the dark and heard slipper-like footsteps on the road. The witness later heard loud chewing and lip-smacking behind the tent and noticed an unfamiliar animal smell. The sounds lasted about 20 minutes and stopped without footsteps after a distant camper door was heard.
A close range road crossing on a foggy morning near Safford
The witness was driving slowly to work in heavy fog before sunrise when a tall hairy biped crossed the road a few yards ahead from right to left. The animal moved at a slow run and briefly turned its upper torso toward the headlights before disappearing into the fog. The driver stopped, stunned at nearly hitting it, but could give no further detail because of the conditions and brief duration.
Memory told of a possible daylight sighting as a child on Mount Graham
As a 10-year-old visiting Mount Graham with relatives, the witness sat alone on a fallen tree with her back to an upslope boulder. She felt she was being watched, glanced behind her, and saw a large dark hair-covered creature standing upright partly behind the boulder about fifteen feet away. After a second or two she ran to her family, who dismissed her account.
