Despite aiming a rifle scope toward the sounds from under 100 yards away, the witness saw nothing and was frightened.

Trucker recounts possible early morning experience while making a delivery outside Spring Arbor

The witness stopped his grain truck on a dark rural road to prepare the trailer for unloading at a nearby farm. While outside the truck he heard loud pacing, branch-snapping and thrashing from woods on one side of the road and smelled a strong dead-animal odor from a ditch on the other side, accompanied by intense fear and a sense of being watched. He ran back to the cab and drove to the farm to unload. After unloading, he returned to the area and found the noises, odor, and fear were gone.

Sasquatch evidence near Mount McLoughlin

The witness and a companion were hiking in fresh snow with no prior tracks ahead. They found very large human-like tracks with a long stride and followed them about two miles. Near a turn the tracks stopped, snow clumps rolled down an embankment and brush moved as if something had just jumped uphill, and the pair left quickly.
