Husband and wife observe sasquatch at river's edge

The witness and spouse were drifting down the Missouri River behind fishing jugs with the motor off when they spotted a dark hairy figure drinking at the water's edge. As they drifted to within about 50 feet it stood on two legs, noticed them, and walked into the nearby woods. After it disappeared they heard trees being knocked down for about a minute and noticed a wet musky odor.

The Database of Unexplained Encounters. Claims are recorded as claims: the Anomadex catalogues what people reported, where it was reported, and how sure I am that it was read correctly. It does not rule on what they saw.

A quick ask from the person behind the Anomadex: if you allow analytics, Google Analytics shows me which places, phenomena and searches you're most curious about. That tells me which regions and sources to add next and what to make easier to find. It never sees your name or anything you send me, and nothing is set unless you say yes. Privacy
