Sasquatch sighting near Monterey, California

A visitor from the UK went to a beach near Monterey to photograph sea otters at sundown. She watched six very large, hairy bipeds come around a cove, with a large male wading while others handled seaweed on the sand. After her camera gear clattered on rocks, the male approached and argued vocally with a female before threatening her, after which she lost consciousness.

Sasquatch sighting in California

The witness was working alone overnight operating noisy machinery at a mountain job site in the rain. He heard impacts on a metal container, then saw a dark upright figure by the trees that crept toward him as rocks were thrown. He fled to his car, struggled to open a locked gate, then faced a much larger red-eyed figure that snapped a branch, vocalized loudly, and bluff-charged. He escaped in his car with damage to the vehicle.

Sasquatch sighting in California

The witness followed an older brother past a fence along fire breaks to hunt deer. When the brother left briefly chasing a buck, the witness heard a loud yell and had rocks land around and herd movement back to the fire break. The brother later said he had seen a big dark monster throwing rocks and had fled home separately.

Sasquatch sighting in California

The witness took two daughters for an evening hike on a trail near home where large trees blocked the path. The youngest daughter froze after seeing movement, and the witness ran forward to see a large hairy human-like figure by a tree staring at them. After a tense standoff with rocking motion, the group backed away and returned to the car. The middle daughter had recorded video, and later visits found large bare footprints where the figures had been.

Vocalization in California

While sleeping in his van in Alabama Hills, the witness woke at 2:30 AM to bird-like sounds shifting to crickets, then a short wailing whistle. Something pressed against the van and shook it violently while he felt overwhelming dread, pressure, inability to move and hear. After it stopped he dressed, found no tracks, felt watched while leaving, and drove to a populated rest stop.

Man recalls adversarial encounter with an unknown creature near French Gulch

During midnight rounds at an isolated school compound, the witness crossed a suspension bridge and heard something raiding trash cans by the cookhouse. He threw rocks toward a large dark figure under the eaves, which stood erect, stepped onto the bridge, dodged thrown rocks, vaulted the bridge cables and fled upstream on two legs. He noted glowing eyes and a foul stench, then returned to his trailer without anyone else responding.

Lady has two Northern California sightings, over a 20year period

While trolling for bass from a boat on a warm summer day with a companion and a dog, the witness watched a huge dark-haired biped walk to the water's edge and pull up what looked like a stick fish trap. The creature inspected the apparently empty trap, placed it back, then climbed a very steep slope effortlessly without looking toward the boat. The companion did not see the creature while the dog barked and howled throughout the several-minute observation from about 50 yards away.
