Sasquatch sighting in Maryland

The witness, then a teen, walked deep into unfamiliar old-growth woods while squirrel hunting alone. After feeling dread and hearing movement and strange chattering laughter from a laurel thicket, he fired a warning shot and saw a hairy bipedal figure emerge. He fled as it pursued parallel to him until he reached his house, where he and his brother later fired into the woods.

Footsteps

The guest was asleep in his tent with his dog when a proximity alarm woke him about 11:45. Something walked around the tent, handled items on his table, then pressed through the tent fabric behind his head and gently manipulated his head and face with a very large hand. He triggered his truck alarm lights, after which it moved off. The whole sequence lasted about nine minutes and was captured on an audio recorder.

Sasquatch sighting in Oregon

The guest was elk hunting deep in a canyon and started hiking out up a skid road. He sensed something wrong and noticed a huge dark mass paralleling him in the brush, matching his steps. He saw portions of an arm and long leg as it followed him for about 100 yards until he reached the main road and left.

Footsteps in New York

The guest camped several days alone with his dog, noticing hairy scat, twisted saplings forming a gate, and feeling watched. On the third night the forest went silent, footsteps approached, loud breathing and an ape-like vocalization occurred outside the tent, followed by exchanged fake owl sounds and a spinning yin-yang light with a brief vision inside the tent. In the morning disturbed dog food was attributed to a raccoon.

The guest went fishing at a beaver pond and was walking home through woods at sunset. He smelled a strong odor, heard movement, then entered a clearing where a large figure stood, grunted, touched his chest, looked him over, then walked past behind him. He returned home shaken, avoided the area, and remains wary in the woods.

Scream

The witness, a college volunteer helping with a search-and-rescue in heavy snow, hiked with two companions to a small work cabin atop Mount Macon and spent the night there. During the night something screamed and howled outside and repeatedly struck the heavy door and walls, terrifying the three men inside. By morning it was gone, leaving large indistinct impressions in the snow leading up to the cabin, after which the group hiked out.

Scream in Washington

The guest was part of a small team doing nighttime map-and-compass navigation over several nights with no weapons. Team members repeatedly felt followed, heard high-pitched screams and footstep echoes that stopped and started with them, and noted the follower moved far more gracefully than they could. The guest came to believe the follower could not have been a person moving that smoothly in the forest.

He watched a large dark female figure stalk tree to tree toward the hogs, then leap, scream, knock a hog into an oak and kill it by pounding its side. The creature carried the hog off, exchanged calls with another unseen creature, then scented, located and stared up at the witness before walking away.
