Deer Hunter describes Pre-Dawn Encounter with a Sasquatch on Glade Mountain 9 miles East of Marion

The witness was walking to a deer hunting blind before sunrise when he noticed a dark shape lying across the trail in moonlight.

He later heard a throat-clearing sound from the thicket and found only disturbed leaves where it had gone.

Kayakers report camp intimidation all night long on Lower Buffalo River

Two campers floating and fishing the Lower Buffalo River heard loud monkey-like vocalizations from the bank and later camped on a gravel bar. Through the night they reported repeated wood knocks, yells, chatter, whistles, a tree snap, and cantaloupe-sized rocks landing in the river from the ridge across from camp. They lit the camp, kept fire watch in shifts, and at dawn packed and paddled out after a final rock fell in front of them.

The witness searched outside with a light and firearm but saw nothing, and the sounds stopped after dawn.

Vocalization near Susanville, California (2022)

The witness, spouse, and dog were camping and cooking at a campsite after dark. They heard hoot-like calls from below, then a loud growl-howl about 100 yards behind them lasting seconds, followed by answering howl-scream calls from two other directions.

Structure or nest near Hot Springs, North Carolina (2022)

The witness parked by a gated abandoned road and walked about a mile, then left the road to inspect tire marks. He found teepee-like stick structures, snapped saplings he could not break, and downed trees funneling movement into a wash. Birds went silent, loud tongue-clicking surrounded him with an answering whistle, and objects sounding like rocks were thrown as he left. From a field with a large quartz rock he saw a dark shape in a distant tree.

Unidentified sound in Utah (2022)

During a dark hard rain the witness heard a loud hammer-like knocking from the sitting rock behind the trailer that accelerated into rapid rock-on-rock impacts continuing about 45 minutes. The witness concluded no human could sustain that speed and duration. A strange metallic gate-like sound and distant talking and whistles had also become a recurring precursor.

Sasquatch sighting in Mississippi (2020)

The witness was deer hunting alone from an elevated stand off a power line in a state wildlife management area on a December afternoon. After hearing heavy breathing and movement, the witness observed a large black hairy human-like figure first on all fours then sitting and standing. The figure vocalized in gibberish-like speech, screamed, grunted, approached to about 30 yards and remained for an extended period before tearing vegetation and moving off. While the witness fled toward a truck, movement paralleled the witness in the woods while vocalizations continued behind, suggesting a second individual, and the witness fired a shot in the air before driving away.
