Homeowners find fresh snow tracks of a possible adult and juvenile north of Forsyth
The witness and a companion were asleep at home when they were awakened around midnight by a thump on a storage box beneath the bedroom window and sensations described as footsteps. The next afternoon they found two lines of large human-like barefoot prints in fresh snow leading toward and past the window, merging into one line before crossing the road toward a treeline. The larger prints were measured at 13 to 14 inches long with strides over five feet, while smaller prints were interpreted as a juvenile. Photos and measurements were taken before melt and wind degraded the tracks.

No blood was found, only partial tracks, and a conservation officer told them to keep quiet.

Four people were camping around a campfire at Rocky Fork Lake in July 2004 when a large animal came from the woods to the south, circled the campsite three times at close range, and ran toward the lake emitting a high-pitched howl and pig-like squeals before running behind the camp.

Possible track and vocalizatons at Table Rock Lake
The witness reports finding a single large human-like footprint in mud at the back of a lake cove while scouting for animal sign. The print was much larger and deeper than his own tracks and sat isolated in the washout, leading him to infer a difficult leap between rocky shorelines unlikely for a barefoot human. He notes the find alongside earlier strange vocalizations, while acknowledging mundane explanations remain possible.
