Sasquatch sighting in California (1943)

The guest's grandfather and his brother were in the Bald Hill area during logging-era hunting. While sleeping in their car, a large ape-like creature bent down and looked in the window, leaving handprints. The grandfather kept photos of the prints and never forgot the incident.

Sasquatch sighting in California

The friend was typing on a laptop when he looked up and saw an ugly man-like face staring through the window, then fled the room. The next morning in snow he and his father found large footprints circling the cabin and porch, knee-like marks by the bedroom window, and a large handprint on a snowy wall. A neighboring cabin owner said such activity was common and described watching animals from cabins at night as Bigfoot TV.

The Database of Unexplained Encounters. Claims are recorded as claims: the Anomadex catalogues what people reported, where it was reported, and how sure I am that it was read correctly. It does not rule on what they saw.

A quick ask from the person behind the Anomadex: if you allow analytics, Google Analytics shows me which places, phenomena and searches you're most curious about. That tells me which regions and sources to add next and what to make easier to find. It never sees your name or anything you send me, and nothing is set unless you say yes. Privacy
