May 2010 Yreka, Siskiyou County, California Class A #27819

Three brothers have multiple observations west of Yreka [Includes audio of knocking]

On May 12 around 4pm, the witness was hiking back to base camp with two relatives when he saw a large upright hair-covered figure dart between trees on a steep slope about 30 yards away. He watched it cover 10-15 yards uphill in seconds without bobbing before it disappeared behind trees. His companions did not see the figure, and the party returned to camp without further incident before leaving the area that evening.

8 August 2005 Wright's Lake, El Dorado County, California Class A #15821

Backpacker's moonlit encounter near the trail from Wright's Lake to Enchanted Pools

While camping alone at night near a stream, the witness heard a deep growl and saw a crouched dark mass at the treeline, fired warning shots, then heard rocks repeatedly splashing in the stream for hours and heard deep oof sounds on a later approach. Near dawn a very tall hair-covered female-like figure stood by the tent and walked rapidly toward the witness despite additional warning shots, then ran away over granite and out of sight. The witness remained in place until daylight and then hiked out.

Happy Camp local named Tara claims multiple observations. She is not credible

Late at night the witness noticed the apple tree at the far corner of the yard shaking violently. After a brief check with a night-vision scope that revealed nothing, the witness looked again and saw the upper portion of a tall, hairy, human-like figure walking toward the creek past tall berry bushes. The figure was backlit by a neighboring porch light, showing a large rounded head on very large rounded shoulders with little neck.

Sasquatch sighting in California

A trail camera set for drug-trafficking surveillance far back in the forest was found ripped off its tree. The short video appears to show a bipedal animal deliberately covering the camera with handfuls of leaves. The officer who retrieved it did not know what to make of it but said it was not a bear.
