Campers describe sounds, rock throwing and brief sighting at dark near Wind River Work Center outside Carson

Four campers spending the night near a creek reported hearing aggressive vocalizations described as a mix of whoops and screams, then seeing the silhouette of a very tall figure with a wide torso about fifteen feet away. They retreated to their truck before setting up camp, and later that night heard a deep whistle, crunching footsteps, pebbles hitting tents, and a branch breaking, along with a foul odor while a small dog growled. By morning a chair was found knocked over, but no tracks were located on the rocky ground.

Whistle in Washington (2019)

The witness hiked a trail near Lake Easton in the evening, noticed a snapped tree across the trail and bent trees, then whistled and knocked. After a loud limb snap behind him, he knocked loudly on a tree and heard something bipedal rush toward him making loud huffing and dinosaur-like sounds. He stood, saw nothing in the brush despite the closeness of the sounds, then walked out with bear spray.

June 2012 Morton, Lewis County, Washington Class A #35812

Early afternoon sighting by hiker near Morton

In the early afternoon the witness and companions were walking down an old logging road when they heard strange whistling, gurgling pig-like sounds and trees shaking nearby. The witness approached to about 30 feet and saw the back of a light beige, clean-haired figure with darker face and hands holding trees, which then struck trees, turned away, and ran off on all fours while whistling continued from across the road. Companions farther away heard the whistles, thuds and thrashing but did not see the figure.

Possible whistles and wood knocks heard between Tonasket and Republic

The witness was cutting firewood off a mountain road with a companion when she heard a brush snap, then about an hour later heard slow knocking, a soft whistle, and gibberish-like vocalizations from a heavily wooded canyon across the road. The sounds were unfamiliar to her despite being raised in the mountains. She looked into the trees but saw nothing, and a return the next day had no repeat.

Loud, human-like whistles were then heard from multiple directions to the east, appearing to go back and forth for about a minute before stopping abruptly with a branch snap.

Barefoot tracks and whistling heard while hunting

While elk hunting on a mountain trail in the morning, the witness found a barefoot-like print in soft dirt and followed it briefly before losing it. Shortly afterward the witness heard an unfamiliar whistling sound, then heard it again later while watching a draw for elk. The combination struck the witness as strange and unlike anything heard in decades of hunting the area.

18" tracks found in the snow by two witnesses who felt like they were being " hunted " by something big.

Two people driving in a snowy forested area found large bare footprints about 18 inches long along the road. After parking and making loud knocks with logs, they heard a distant bark, human-like whistling from multiple directions, and later fast bipedal footsteps. A companion reported seeing something cross the road during the footsteps and hearing a branch break nearby. Feeling they were being approached, both left the area around 12:30.

Unusual sounds heard, sighting of fast upright animal

The witness and two relatives returned at night to a riverside berry area where relatives had felt watched the day before. After about ten minutes of quiet, they heard a loud bang like a shotgun, loud splashing near shore, and repeated very large rocks thrown into the water. After retreating uphill and pausing by the car, they heard a branch snap and rustling, and an unseen presence loudly mimicked the witness's whistle by vocalizing.
