Camper describes stalking by Bigfoots near "Devil's Bathtub" in the Black Hills

The witness was camping alone in a tent in Spearfish Canyon. Late at night he heard a whistle-like sound, a tree-knock sound, and slow heavy bipedal footsteps approaching and passing his tent, accompanied by a strong unpleasant smell. He shouted at the presence and later woke to tree knocks and varied whooping sounds from multiple directions lasting about 15 minutes, and found no sign in the morning.

Family records possible vocalizations in daylight near Mt. Zion Cemetery

A group visiting a remote cemetery heard an extremely loud, unearthly yell-like sound coming from about 1000 yards away past a fallen tree across Sugar Creek. The witnesses said it was not a known farm animal and captured it on a camcorder, though quieter on playback. They also noticed a dank, musty odor on the breeze apparently coming from the direction of the sound.

Ginseng hunters have daytime sighting near Blaine.

A couple went ginseng hunting in woods behind their home on a summer morning. The husband heard brush movement across a ditch and then saw a hair-covered figure from the chest up watching them from 20 to 30 feet away. After watching for several minutes, the couple slowly left uphill while the figure continued to observe, and the wife also saw it as they left.

Couple view figure standing on gravel road looking at them

Bother and sister are followed by a brown, hairy creature walking on two legs

The witness walked to help a relative who had run out of gas near a creek bed, where both noticed a foul smell and movement in the weeds. As they left on foot, the witness saw a tall, thick-haired biped approaching quickly and both ran toward home while it followed without catching them. When they reached their driveway they turned and saw it running into roadside weeds before going inside.
