Sasquatch sighting in Minnesota (2011)

The witness hiked into a remote marsh-edged lake in northern Minnesota to ice fish. He saw a dark head and shoulders rise above tall reeds, disappear, then reappear as two figures watching him silently for about 20 minutes. He walked to the reeds afterward and found no snowmobile tracks or sounds, and later concluded they must have been very tall to be visible above the reeds.

Hikers find large barefoot prints on the Elwha River Trail

The witness and a companion were hiking out after a multi-day camping trip when they found a large barefoot-like print in mud, with additional fainter tracks continuing along the trail, and took a single cellphone photo. That night while sheltering in a trail cabin with a poncho rigged over an open window, the covering was pulled open and a securing board was knocked onto a camper despite no observed wind. The witness noted the nighttime disturbance could have been a bear, but also noted a food-strewn garbage bag was left untouched.

Possible sighting near Bowser on Vancouver Island

About 2.5 years before the report, a 4.5-year-old boy was riding in a van with his mother and grandmother while the family looked for firewood near Bowser. Looking out the open door toward a clearcut bordered by alders, the boy saw a tall upright brown-black animal emerge, take several steps, pause to look at the van, then return to cover. He described it as walking on two legs and swinging its arms, seeing it from the waist up.
