Family in small boat hears animal retreating and finds prints

In 1963 the witness hiked with family members to Teddy Lakes to fish. While rowing around an island they heard splashing and then found a line of very large, deep, human-like footprints in shallow mud where an animal had exited the water. Neither the witness, then a youth experienced with tracks, nor his expert-tracker grandfather could identify the maker, and the trail was lost in forest litter.

Tracks in Oregon

Earlier in the same season the group was camped overnight in a basin while elk hunting. Something circled the camp at night and frightened guard dogs that normally showed no fear. The next day the men followed large barefoot tracks with very long strides and a damaged toe from behind the camp to a canyon.

Odor in Oregon

The guest and three companions camped several days in remote central Oregon to look into Bigfoot. They smelled a skunky BO odor, felt something brush tents, found large and human-sized barefoot prints, heard human-like grunts, found torn branches and an uprooted tree, had apples taken from high up with sticker skin peeled, and saw a bulky dark figure at the treeline captured as a blurry night-vision still. They left early due to bad weather.

Sasquatch sighting near John Day, Oregon

The following spring the guest returned to the same camp with a hunting partner and girlfriend for a weekend camp. After dinner visitors left, the partner fired a revolver at a large bipedal animal that jumped from the creek bed, then all three watched it run parallel across a sparsely timbered hillside in spotlight, noting reflective eyes and remarkable speed while keeping its gaze on them. The girlfriend reported it whistled at her, and next morning they found a single partial footprint in hard clay.

Footsteps near Sweet Home, Oregon

The witness was scouting remote mountain roads for fishing access when he found a newly placed stacked rock pile blocking the road. After stopping to inspect it, he heard something charge down the steep slope toward him and stop when he drew his pistol, then parallel him back to his vehicle unseen. He returned later with a hunting partner and heard coordinated whoops from multiple positions, and a few days later with a larger group found extensive tree damage, possible structures, and three sizes of bare human-like tracks.

Sasquatch sighting in Oregon

At a rural house on the Oregon coast the household experienced repeated night howls, growls, talking-like sounds, dogs reacting, motion lights, a hand smudge, and large footprints in hard gravel. Young children repeatedly described dark hairy figures with flat noses and red eyes pawing or scratching at a bedroom window, motioning to come outside, and disappearing and reappearing.

Sasquatch sighting in Oregon

A few years after the first track find, the witness and friend returned to call bear or cougar. They found a small pine snapped off at seven feet and thrown, with large tracks showing toe dig and a six-foot stride. While driving down the mountain the witness looked down into an open area and saw a huge hair-covered Bigfoot with one arm around a tree watching them pass.

Tracks in Oregon

The witness and a friend were bear hunting in the Rogue River wilderness. They found an area of knocked-down small trees, bear tracks, a huge human-type footprint sunk deep, clawed bark spaced far apart, and scratch marks high on a pine. At the time they thought it was a giant bear and only later reconsidered it as possible Bigfoot sign.

Witness observed two creatures crossing the road

About seven years earlier, while driving at dusk on a gravel road into the Blue Mountains, the witness came around a bend and saw two tall figures crossing the road in the headlights. The lights reflected yellow from their eyes while low sunlight illuminated their bodies. The witness stopped and got out after they walked into the woods but saw nothing further and found no tracks because the ground was hard.

A teenage girl witnesses a female bigfoot steal meat from a cooler

The witness, then a teenager staying in a tent at a logging camp, awoke at night and saw a female fur-covered figure standing at an illuminated cooler on the porch holding meat. After a standoff ended by a scream, the figure left with the meat as others emerged and observed its receding form and footprints.

Hunters, father and son, find track on Wagner Peak

While hunting with a relative in southern Oregon several years ago, the witness claims to have found a very large human-like track in snow. The track had five distinct toes and another impression was several feet ahead. The witness also reports foul odors and an absence of wildlife in the general area on other trips.

Boater finds footprints on bank of Rogue River

The witness rowed alone upstream, beached the boat, and hiked to a fishing spot where a mud layer on a rock shelf held a set of very large tracks. The tracks were estimated at about two feet long, crossed the shelf from the water, and continued up a very steep clay bank without shortening stride. No creature was seen and no other witnesses were present for the find.
