Footsteps in Mississippi

The young witness and a friend finished fishing class and walked a short way down a trail to look toward another fishing spot. They heard a third set of footsteps that stopped when they stopped and called out with no answer. They then saw a blurry roughly six-foot-tall mass peeking from behind a thin tree about fifty feet away, left quickly, and avoided returning to that trail.

about a year and a half ago, January, February, somewhere around there Massachusetts #ef94adb9-b749-47fe-9ed6-6f34b6587d35

Sasquatch sighting in Massachusetts

The witness, an HVAC apprentice, waited alone in the back of a work van at a rural house in western Massachusetts while his coworker stepped away and a boiler timer ran. He heard faint breathing and a light tap on the van, then saw a very tall dark figure hunched to peer through a 3-4 inch gap in the rear door and locked eyes with it for several seconds. The eye appeared pitch black then briefly glowed white-gray, apparently reflecting the coworker's headlamp, before a loud boiler boom startled the figure. It fled in three loud steps across gravel, grass and leaves that both men heard, left a sour wet-towel odor, and the elderly homeowner responded that local animals are friendly.
