Possible evidence of activity found at Bulow Creek State Park

The witness was hiking off trail in the morning when he found an intertwined tree formation topped with a woven dead Y-shaped branch that he felt could not have occurred naturally.

Photos were taken by the group, while two unrelated visitors who also photographed it left quickly appearing scared.

Likely Sasquatch activity around farm property near Green River gamelands

At about 2 a.m. during a break in a storm, the witness heard something at the backyard wire fence and went outside armed with a relative. They heard footsteps and loud cracks first mistaken for gunfire and fired weapons toward the sound. The cracking was then recognized as wood splitting as a huge tree was pushed over, crashing down and shaking the house, after which the family heard loud footfalls running away.
