Motorist sighting of a sasquatch LAST NIGHT 25 miles northwest of Milwaukee

The witness was driving in the evening when headlights illuminated a large fur-covered bipedal figure standing beside a tree near the road shoulder. Only part of the figure was visible, but large reflecting eyes were seen during a brief few-second view. The driver called a relative immediately, and when they revisited the site with a dog a short time later, the dog whimpered and would not approach the area.

Knocks returned in the afternoon while hiking at Loew Lake

The witness and a relative hiked for about two hours looking for Sasquatch sign and photographed two possible stick structures. While heading back, the witness struck a stick to make wood knocks and heard replies that matched his signals, first one knock, then three, then rapid knocking. He answered with rapid knocks, after which the sounds stopped and further knocking got no response. Both individuals heard the exchange and thought it was either another person or a Sasquatch.

16 November 2012 Meadowview, Washington County, Virginia Class B #37817

Possible incidents outside a home near Meadowview

On the night of November 23 the witness shone a light from the deck toward a small woods patch behind the house to check for deer. About 160 yards away he saw a pair of large, brilliant emerald-green eyes spaced widely apart. As an experienced outdoorsman he said he had never seen eyes of that shape, brilliance and spacing, and said the sighting combined with an earlier strange vocalization made him open to a Sasquatch-type creature being present.
