Mother camping with her kids hears loud vocalizations from outside their tent at Joemma Beach State Park campground

A group of scouts and parents camping in tents were awakened around 2 a.m. by loud whoop vocalizations. The main witness heard three very close whoops followed minutes later by more distant whoops that seemed to move away to the north. The sound was unfamiliar and unnerving, and the group discussed a sasquatch as a possible source.

Howls in September, 3AM, from marsh south of Steilacoom, due west of McChord AFB

The witness and a companion were sitting on a screened-in porch with coffee before leaving for the airport. They heard loud calls starting as a whoop and transitioning into a prolonged anguished howl-like cry, then heard similar calls from farther away over a couple of minutes. Both were shaken and unfamiliar with the sound despite experience with regional wildlife.

Friends camping at Cedar Lake (10mi E of Wilkeson) hear possible BF vocals

Three campers were sleeping at a secluded mountain lake camp when they were awakened just after 4 a.m. by a very loud, high-pitched scream from very close by, followed by shorter vocalizations. They heard brush movement and other strange noises through the rest of the night, lit a small fire for reassurance, and left in the morning. The reporter states they had not believed in Bigfoot before but became convinced by the experience.

Possible knocks and vocalization heard from inside a home near Buckley

The witness was awake in bed with the window open around sunrise when two wood knocks sounding very close were followed immediately by a distant deep vocalization. The witness felt the sound was too deep and guttural to be a human, elk, coyote, or other familiar animal. The witness then got up, closed and locked the window, and heard no further noises.

Two hunters describe vocalizations, stalking, rock-throwing, near Elbe

Two hunters parked before sunrise in fog to hunt heard whooping and tongue-clicking calls from the treeline and heard the caller circle them in the woods. A thud was heard and felt on the road and a boulder that had not been there when they drove in was found in the road. They later heard a very large animal moving away breaking branches, found no sign after sunrise, and left to hunt elsewhere.

Couple camping NW of Mt. Rainier hear loud vocals and footsteps

The witness and a companion camped overnight in a wooded area. Around 3 a.m. the witness heard a very loud whoop-like vocalization nearby that ended in a bird-like sound, followed shortly by a distant answering call. When the witness shone a flashlight toward the treeline, something nearby fled at a jog, producing audible heavy footsteps. The companion later reported hearing another more distant vocalization, and a morning search found no clear tracks in dense underbrush.
