Teens observe a Bigfoot in daylight on a gas line route between Hillsborough and East Amwell townships
Three people walking along a gas pipeline to fish crested a hill and saw a tall shaggy brown creature standing 200-300 feet away. All three watched it for about 20-30 seconds before it ran quickly into the woods off the path. Afterward they found four impressions in the tall wet grass where it had left and remained nervous while fishing.
Campers hear strange vocalizations for over an hour while camping outside Dorrington
The witness was camping with her family at a family cabin site near Dorrington. Around 2:30 a.m. she heard unfamiliar loud, smooth vocalizations and woke her husband, and the two listened together for an hour or more. The sounds included rising calls and rising-then-falling calls, sometimes seeming nearer and sometimes farther, estimated from a quarter to a mile away to the south. No animal was seen, and a scat pile noted behind the cabin was thought by her husband to be from a bear.
Possible footprint and handprint found in Plum Creek Play Meadow - Forest Preserve
The witness reports finding a single large footprint along a forest trail in a small forest preserve and photographing it in daylight in July 2008. The print was estimated at 12 inches long and compared to a men's size 12 shoe. No creature was seen. A large hand print found the following summer is treated as a separate event.
Daylight road-crossing sighting by the U.S. Postal Carrier for the town of Quinault Lake (w/ low quality cellphone photos)
The witness was driving a mail route in the morning when he saw an upright figure in the road ahead.

Man Has Face to Face Encounter Outside of Willits
The witness was driving north on Highway 101 north of Willits in daylight when a large hair-covered biped entered the roadway and ran across the lanes in front of the car.

The animal then bounded up a steep embankment on all fours and left.
Possible late night encounter by canoeists on Flat Creek near Piney Creek Wilderness
Two companions were quietly floating in a canoe on a dark creek at night when they startled something standing at the creek edge. They heard heavy bipedal footsteps exiting the water, displacing water and making waves, then moving onto the bank. A large rock then splashed into the creek very close to the canoe, after which the subject walked uphill into the woods. The witnesses stayed silent out of fear and never saw the subject because of darkness.
Man observes a large, hair-covered biped outside his garage south of Nashville
Late on a Wednesday night the witness was watching TV above the garage when he heard something strike a garage door.

A family member later checked outside but found no tracks or other physical evidence.
Possible howls heard in the Three Top Mountain area
The witness was staying alone for a week at a secluded rental house on a fishing trip. On two evenings he heard long, deep howls coming from the northwest, each lasting about 30 seconds and repeating every 15-20 minutes for about two hours on the first night and more distantly on the second. The howls prompted barking from local dogs. He said they sounded very similar to the 1994 Ohio Moaning Howl recording.
BFRO Investigator obtains first thermal footage (very brief) outside Phillips
The witness camped alone for several nights using a thermal imager. On the fourth night an object was thrown near the tent, then a heat signature was seen peeking over brush along a trail.

Campers report harassment on the Mogollon Rim near Knoll Lake
The witness was reading in a parked van at a remote wooded campsite while a companion napped. After prolonged bark-tearing and movement sounds followed by silence, a long thick branch flew from the trees and struck the van's side mirror with enough force to shatter it. The witness saw its straight trajectory and concluded it had been thrown rather than fallen. Both occupants then watched and listened but detected nothing further at that time.
Morning sighting by a woodcutter NW of Conconully
The witness was driving on a mountain road toward a firewood cutting spot when the dog alerted to the left. The witness stopped and saw a tall dark figure look at him while walking behind a large slash pile about 75 yards away near the tree line. The figure did not reappear from the other side, and when the witness drove forward it was gone, apparently having gone into the woods. The witness did not get out to look for tracks.
Two very tall hairy creatures seen running down the road at night near Indianola
Late at night the witness was driving home on a forested road and saw two tall dark bipedal figures running ahead in the headlights.

Possible vocalizations heard near a fish hatchery on the Humptulips River
The witness and companions were camping overnight beside a river when whooping vocalizations began from across the river in the early morning hours.

Homeowner hears possible howls east of Winter Springs
Early on June 30, 2008, the witness was carrying trash to the curb in the dark when a loud, long ascending whoop ending in a booming oop was heard from a treeline across the street near a lake. The sound seemed aimed at the witness, carried very far, and did not match any known animal, causing fear and retreat to the garage. An owl called shortly afterward from the same area but sounded distinctly different.
Hiker has a possible daytime sighting near Crater Lake
The witness was hiking a mountain trail with three children who had run ahead. He noticed a large upright hairy figure moving behind the treeline about 50 to 100 yards away, watching it for less than a minute as it moved through brush and woods. He did not alert the children at the time and did not photograph it. About a year later after seeing a television program about similar sightings in the area, he decided to share the experience.
Possible nighttime visit while camping in the Black Hills of South Dakota
The witness was sleeping alone in a tent at a secluded creek-side camp in June 2008. Around 3:11 a.m. the witness awoke to total silence, then heard splashing and movement in the stream to the north and west, followed by a patterned sequence of loud rock-on-rock smacks. The witness loaded a weapon and waited, heard nothing further, and left at sunrise without checking for tracks. Months later, after seeing a program about primates using rocks to communicate, the witness wondered if the visit had been by an unrecognized primate.
Witness hears loud screams and foot steps while camping near Laporte
The witness was camping in tents with five companions.

Possible vocalization frightens fisherman from campsite along Conejos River
The witness was camping alone with his dog in a tent in a remote mountain meadow area while on a fly-fishing trip. Late at night he woke and heard a single extremely loud, high-pitched scream-like howl lasting several seconds from a few hundred yards away across a canyon. Frightened by the sound, which he perceived as territorial, he abandoned his tent and gear and drove to a nearby town to sleep. He returned at daybreak, found no tracks, and later concluded the sound matched alleged sasquatch vocalizations after comparing it to known animal recordings.
Evening sighting at a cornfield near New Philadelphia
In June 2008 around 9:30 p.m., the witness was walking with a child along a road toward a farm when a strange high-pitched howl and musty odor were noticed. A tall, hairy human-like figure emerged from a cornfield and followed at a distance as they hurried toward a waiting vehicle. When vehicle headlights were turned on, the figure paused, vocalized again, and retreated quickly into the corn. The waiting adult also heard the vocalization.

The witness spent the first night of a camping trip awake in the tent and heard about ten whoop-like vocalizations over roughly five minutes coming from higher up the mountain, with no replies heard.
