Couple hears repetitive calls near Oregon Caves N. M

The witness and their then-husband were hiking mid-trail in dense forest when they heard a loud, deep repetitive call from the hillside above. The sound started faintly to their left, grew louder as it passed above them, then faded, moving faster than a person could travel. They could see nothing through the dense forest.

Young hunter sees and hears a sasquatch near Applegate

A 12-year-old waiting alone in a truck on a logging road noticed a foul odor and his dog became frightened.

The boy fled on foot toward relatives.
