Teens find footprint in abandoned strip mining area near Pittsburg

In early summer 1981, the witness, then 13, was exploring strip-mine slag heaps with two companions. He found a single large bare footprint in soft mud beside a small pond between the heaps. He estimated it at 18 inches long by 7 inches wide and noted the surrounding rocky ground would cut bare feet. He interpreted the track as left by Bigfoot.

Motorist has nighttime sighting of animal east of Lebo

The witness was driving slowly on a rural road at night to bring awards to a scout campout when a hair-covered biped stepped over a fence into the road.

Sasquatch sighting near Lenexa, Kansas (1970)

While throwing a football alone at night, the witness noticed a small head with pointed ears peeking from behind tall hedge bushes and threw the ball toward it after it repeatedly ducked. Later that same night while sleeping near a low bedroom window, a much larger hairy face appeared at the glass, made eye contact, shifted its eyes, wrinkled its brow and opened a wide mouth showing pointed teeth. The witness fled to a parent's room while heavy pacing was felt and heard around the house, then police were called but found nothing. The next morning the witness found large prints around windows and garden, recalled repeated early-morning howls, a growl with a branch breaking, grunting in the basement and a violently shaking backyard tree.
