March 2010 Eatonville, Pierce County, Washington Class B #28716

Possible vocalizations and rock piles in a backyard near Eatonville (w/photos)

The witness was awakened at home in the early morning by very loud, deep screams from very close outside. The sounds shifted toward the woods and continued as back-and-forth exchanges between two sources, including grunts, barks, cries and shorter screams over many minutes. The witness's three dogs cowered by the door rather than chasing, and the sounds eventually receded north into the woods until they stopped.

Sasquatch sighting in Washington (2009)

The witness was scouting a creek in full camouflage on a summer afternoon when he walked to within about 20 to 30 feet of what he first took for a broken tree stump. The shape turned, revealing a tall, dark-haired bipedal creature that locked eyes with him for about 15 to 20 seconds while both froze. The creature then turned its torso and legs separately and went up an 8-foot vertical road bank in one motion, crashing through timber out of sight.
