Sasquatch sighting near Lander, Wyoming (2010)

While staying about a week to help move his elderly grandmother, the 11-year-old guest rode a mountain bike daily on wide trails toward the national forest and often felt watched. One day the woods went quiet and he heard childlike playing shift to indistinct murmuring, then heavy bipedal footsteps approaching through brush. A roughly nine-foot, black-haired, barrel-chested male stepped onto the trail about 30 yards away, made rapid mouth-popping clicks answered from the brush, then growled and changed expression when the witness turned his bike. A second taller individual stood up in the brush showing chest and head, the witness rode about two and a half miles home, and family members dismissed the report as a bear.

Sasquatch sighting near Casadero, California (2010)

The witness was living on a church retreat property and clearing fallen redwood limbs in the morning. He looked up from the ground to see a tall, rusty-brown, shaggy-haired figure standing on a mound only a few feet away looking down at him. He avoided further contact, walked back to his cabin, and later concluded unusual bird-like whistles were the group communicating. He never saw the figure or heard those sounds again.
