Sasquatch sighting near Idaho Falls, Idaho (2016)

After an argument, the witness drove into mountains outside town to sleep in his car by a creek. While sitting in the car using his phone, he looked up and saw a large hairy biped standing with its back to him in the creek. When he turned on the headlights it dropped instantly and reappeared peering through bushes at the bank, locking eyes briefly before he reversed and fled.

July 2005 Troy, Latah County, Idaho Class A #12913

Long-duration daylight sighting (distant) on Moscow Mountain

Two companions resting on a high rock overlook watched a large dark biped and a smaller blonde biped moving below in a clear-cut and on a fire road. Over about 20 minutes the figures foraged, interacted closely, and walked erect toward and past the observers before disappearing behind trees. Later the same day the witnesses returned to the spot and reported crushed grass, long stride impressions, and large and small bare footprints.

21 June 2003 Fish Haven, Bear Lake County, Idaho Class B #28386

Camper and his three dogs hear possible vocalizations and cut camping trip short in Beaver Creek

The witness was camping with three dogs and playing with them near the campfire before sunset when loud primate-like calls were heard from up the mountain and canyon. After the witness mimicked the calls, the callers replied and appeared to move closer, while the dogs grew fearful and cowered. Once sounds were very close in the trees after dark and the dogs barked aggressively at the vehicle windows, the witness left the area by vehicle.

Daytime sighting by young girl hiking with family north of Fairfield

While camping with family near a ghost town, the group walked back toward camp with their dog. After the dog was sent into brush, yelped, and fled to camp, the nine-year-old [name withheld] saw a tall hair-covered figure standing uphill watching them. The family ran to camp, set up a string-and-can perimeter alarm, then heard growling and rattling around the perimeter before packing up and leaving.

September 1980 McCall, Valley County, Idaho Class B #58890

Memory told of a scary nighttime encounter with a tall, bright green-eyed animal while fishing at a mountain lake near McCall

Two companions fishing at a mountain lake got off the trail in thick brush on a very dark stormy night and noticed bright green eyes watching them from well above ground level. The figure with the eyes followed them to the lakeshore and then to their truck, staying in the trees and staring without sound or movement even when they charged toward it yelling. They backed away slowly, freed their stuck truck, and drove home, telling no one for years.

1975–1977 Buck And Ednas Tavern On The Pack River 8 Or 9 Miles East, Bonner County, Idaho Class A #5767

Multiple sightings by northern Idaho family

The witness was waiting with his son and daughter when their dog became agitated and stared uphill. They walked down the road and up toward old stumps where a short yellow-haired individual kept stumps between itself and them. At about eight feet under fallen logs it hissed and swatted at the dog while the daughter ran downhill, and the witness did not crawl under to look closer.

Dogman sighting near Twin Falls, Idaho

While biking with her father, the daughter rode ahead, fell off her bike and fled screaming that a black furry thing with upright ears and a massive neck looked at her and came toward her before retreating into bushes when it saw the father. The father saw only black fur and rustling and later called fish and game.

not too much longer after first encounter (1940s) St. Anthony, Idaho #http://www.blogtalkradio.com/bigfoothotspot/2017/11/03/sc-ep376-the-dog

Cryptid sighting near St. Anthony, Idaho

Soon after the first incident, while riding horseback in sparse pasture, the diarist found two 4-5 foot tall owl-like beings with large eyes and sockets. They did not flee; they stepped toward him as he stepped, stared, and seemed to look at each other as if communicating. He circled them on horseback, tried shouting and waving, then rode home for a .22 to shoot around them, but they were gone on return.
