Family has unusual experience outside Grass Valley
A group gathered around a late-night bonfire at a rural ranch heard an extremely loud screeching howl from a nearby canyon and heard brush breaking as something large approached. The group fled to the house, and the witness briefly left her young child outside before going back to retrieve her. The child later said a very big, very hairy figure walked up to her, looked at her, and then walked away.
Howl near Arnold, California (1977)

Late at night they heard a loud howl followed by rapid gibberish and saw a dark shape in the road that stood and moved away with smooth motion. After returning to the truck and falling asleep, the witness was awakened by the truck rocking and heard something move alongside the vehicle before kicking scattered camp gear and walking away.
A scout troop's late night sighting at the edge of their camp near Barton Flats. Multiple witnesses. Reporting witness now a law enforcement officer
The witness was camping with a scout troop when loud howl-like screams were heard late at night. A few hours later, after being awakened by rustling in nearby brush, the group shone a flashlight into the treeline and saw a tall hair-covered figure watching them. The figure then turned and walked with long steps northeast up a wooded hill out of sight.
Footsteps in California
The witness camped with his children in a tent on the back deck to listen to the woods. Something large stomped down the hill and stopped under the deck for an extended time. During the night he heard owls surrounding the house, a low humming sound, howls, dogs barking, a whistle, and a raspy meow-like sound, and a rock and a stick hit the tent above his head.
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.
Howl near Agoura Hills, California
The guest and his friend went about a mile from the house to a wild creek area at night to shoot rabbits. After a missed shot, the whole valley erupted in loud wolf-like howls unlike coyotes. Frightened, they ran about two miles back up the hill to the house.
Possible "Ohio howls" south of Shingletown (midway between Redding and Lassen)
While living at Manton from 1987-1989, the witness's family repeatedly heard strange howls in the evening 2-3 times a week. The sound was thought at the time to come from the cleared swath up the hill along the penstock or powerlines. Years later the witness and family heard the Ohio howl recording and judged it exactly the same sound.
