Hunter in a ghillie suit on Pine Mountain has a close encounter
A deer hunter in scent-masking clothes and a ghillie suit was set up on a rock overlooking a saddle at daybreak. A large dark ape-like animal threw a stick that landed behind him, then charged after he shouted and pointed his muzzleloader. He fired in front of it to deter it; it stopped, stood, grunted, and a smaller one emerged crying before both left. He abandoned his gear and found it ransacked the next day.

Two miners have nighttime sighting near Louellen
The witness and a companion were driving to work in the early morning when they saw an animal squatting by the road near dumped garbage. They watched it in the headlights as it moved backward into the road, looked at them, then squatted and leaped off the road into a ravine. A torn bag of garbage was found where it had been kneeling.
