Vocalization in Alaska
While working in the park, the guest hiked to climb a mountain via a narrow valley and detoured to check an old cabin site. He found a large well-trodden trail, a shredded willow break, and a torn-apart rotten stump, which he attributed to snow and bears at the time. On the return in a sunny open spot he heard a loud single-syllable vocal from the woods over the creek and chose to leave for the wide river bar rather than investigate.
Howl near Index, Washington
In his early twenties the guest bushwhacked to a remote trailless high mountain lake to look for Sasquatch and camped overnight.

He felt an urgent need to leave, hurried down hearing branches cracking behind him, and the urgency lifted when he reached sunshine and the creek.

Vocalization near Talala, Oklahoma
Late at night while photographing on the porch, the witness felt watched then heard a single grunt like a pig and horse combined near trees, later heard again behind her brother's house. Chickens were frightened with one laying prematurely, dogs barked, and her brother came out with a light and firearm. Around the same period a newly nailed chicken-pen roof was ripped back, mulch buckets were moved without spilling, finger-like swipes appeared in a bucket, and she often felt watched near the barn and swing set.
Vocalization near Talala, Oklahoma
About two weeks after the roof sighting, the witness walked the same direction at dusk and heard very loud monkey-like noises from a wooded lot.

The noise stopped as she neared, then resumed after she passed, and she hurried away without looking.

Over multiple nights the witness heard shuffling coming down the hall to his basement bedroom, with the door moving, books sliding off, blankets pulled far away, and scratches appearing on his arm.
