Friday night Iowa EP 1131

Sasquatch sighting in Iowa

For the rest of the Iowa expedition the camp was active nightly with eye shine on a ridge, movement within twenty-five to thirty feet of tents, a shadow running through woods and three knocks. Attendees reported hearing movement around cars, finding handprints and a moved tarp, nausea, and an unusual recorded gagging or regurgitating sound near the outhouses.

Handprint in Iowa

While walking off trail toward the river bank, the witness found four holes in the ground that, after brushing leaves away, looked like a palm impression with a thumb pushed in. She measured it at about ten inches wide with a six inch palm, made a 3D scan, and cast it.

The Database of Unexplained Encounters. Claims are recorded as claims: the Anomadex catalogues what people reported, where it was reported, and how sure I am that it was read correctly. It does not rule on what they saw.

A quick ask from the person behind the Anomadex: if you allow analytics, Google Analytics shows me which places, phenomena and searches you're most curious about. That tells me which regions and sources to add next and what to make easier to find. It never sees your name or anything you send me, and nothing is set unless you say yes. Privacy
