Campers hear terrifying vocalizations and see a huge dark form
Five boys were camping in a wilderness area when loud screams approached their camp late at night.

Nighttime encounter by a worker at a logging site
In summer 1968 the witness was working alone at night installing radio equipment on a yarder at a remote logging landing in Oregon. After dark he felt watched and twice saw bright eyes, the second time discerning a large wide black shape about 20 feet away, accompanied by a repulsive odor. He left the site for the night and returned at daylight, finding no footprints. The next morning a crew member showed him heavy barrels that had been moved, which the witness associated with the animal.
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.

When the witness was a child of about eight, he was walking home from school on a lakeside trail in the Oregon Cascades on a clear summer afternoon.

One audible and two visual, early evening encounters by a coastal witness near the North Fork of the Coquille River
When the witness was a child living in a remote wooded valley, pounding on wood drew a sibling indoors and the family went outside to listen.

The caller and her husband were camping off logging roads near the Oregon coast, with friends in a tent by the river and the couple sleeping in the truck.

Both remained scared in the truck without investigating.
Footsteps in Oregon
The witness and a tent-mate camped far from roads to be ready for an early volunteer shift.

Wood knock in Oregon
The witness was on a family nostalgia trip in the Mount Hood forest and camped unprepared by the road.

Wood knock in Oregon
Two companions camping with minimal supplies at a remote lake heard faint knocking, cracking, and chatter-like voices in the evening, followed by a whoop, with elk bugles also audible. At the time they reasoned it might be other people, but years later after hearing similar sounds described as associated with large hairy beings, one concluded it may have been such beings.
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 in Oregon
The witness was living alone in a trailer while clearing land for a cabin. Over several nights loud banging on a metal trailer woke him, culminating in screams that drew him toward a large excavation. He confronted two tall hairy figures and a smaller one trapped in the pit, with another large figure flanking him. After a tense standoff the group retrieved the small one and withdrew to the treeline, and the witness left the property at sunrise.
Vocalization in Oregon
A couple weeks after the road sighting, the driver met another driver at a secluded wooded parking lot around 4:30 in the morning. Both heard what sounded like a muffled conversation between at least two, plus whistles, which stopped when approached. Loud stomping movements then circled in the woods and grew louder until both left in their trucks.
Howl in Oregon
Over about two weeks of night deliveries, the driver heard howls and unexplained slaps on the box truck in the same area.

Noting its overlong arms and matted hair, the driver kept going as it stepped into lava rock terrain, then stopped to look but found nothing.
Footsteps near John Day, Oregon
The following fall archery opener, five hunters camped at the same site and the guest shot a buck in hot weather, butchering it and hanging the inedible carcass across the creek about nine feet up. After 10 p.m. they heard heavy footfalls and feeding grunts, fired guns to scare the animal, found the carcass pulled down, rehung it higher twice with the same result, then listened as it stripped rib meat requiring great grip strength. One companion left for Alaska afterward and the guest never returned to the area.
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.
