Couple experience large rock thrown and possible bluff charge in Inyo National Forest
The witness and a companion hiked to a high-elevation lake to fish and stopped to rest on the trail. A large angular rock landed near them after they heard it moving through the air, followed by a loud grunt, a foul odor, and heavy footsteps approaching downhill. Fearing a bear, they fled down the switchback trail while the footsteps cut straight downhill behind them for about five minutes before stopping. They abandoned personal items, returned to the trailhead, and left the area.
Camper's encounter with a Bigfoot outside tent in North Lake Campground near Bishop
The witness was camping with two young relatives at a high-elevation lake campground in the summer. Around midnight he woke to heavy footsteps stopping outside the tent and, peeking through the mesh with a flashlight, saw the huge hairy muscular human-like legs of a very tall biped standing a few feet away. After a minute or two the individual walked away, and the witness moved the children to the car and left the campsite early, leaving some gear behind.
Man describes childhood incident, a possible approach at Seven Lakes
The witness reports camping overnight in a tent with a relative in a remote glacial valley during a snowstorm. Around 3:45 a.m., they heard very heavy bipedal footsteps approach and stop a few feet from the tent, remaining silent for about five minutes before continuing toward a frozen lake and rugged ridgeline. The pair did not see the visitor and did not check for tracks, but left quickly at first light feeling frightened and unwelcome.
