Sasquatch sighting in Oregon

The guest's Special Forces friend said his 12-man team was called to hunt an aggressive animal near Fort Lewis. They tracked through the Mount Hood area, cornered one of several animals, shot it, and removed it by helicopter. He described it as enormous, muscular, human-featured, fast, and known to throw boulders and use sticks.

Vocalization in Oregon

The host retold an account from a hunter in a remote part of the national forest. Around five in the morning the hunter heard what sounded like children laughing and playing in an area inaccessible without a high-clearance vehicle. The host noted the location made the sounds inexplicable.

Sasquatch sighting near Salem, Oregon

The witness and a roommate were walking a forest trail and heard loud hollow mumbling ahead that grew clearer as they approached. They stopped and saw two large upright hairy human-like creatures facing each other below the trail, one gesturing and vocalizing while the other listened. Both creatures appeared surprised to be seen, and the witnesses fled back to their car.

Sasquatch sighting in Oregon

A witness crossing a rock slide in Oregon reportedly saw three animals walking across the slide. The adults picked up rocks and sniffed them until one apparently located prey. One male dug a pit and pulled out hibernating ground squirrels and bedding to eat.

Sasquatch sighting in Oregon

A few years after the first track find, the witness and friend returned to call bear or cougar. They found a small pine snapped off at seven feet and thrown, with large tracks showing toe dig and a six-foot stride. While driving down the mountain the witness looked down into an open area and saw a huge hair-covered Bigfoot with one arm around a tree watching them pass.

Tracks in Oregon

The witness and a friend were bear hunting in the Rogue River wilderness. They found an area of knocked-down small trees, bear tracks, a huge human-type footprint sunk deep, clawed bark spaced far apart, and scratch marks high on a pine. At the time they thought it was a giant bear and only later reconsidered it as possible Bigfoot sign.

Footsteps in Oregon

On another camping trip to the same area the witness heard something large step on a branch. The sound struck him as much larger than a deer, like a cow stepping, and he immediately thought of Bigfoot.

Vocalization near Elsie, Oregon

The writer and spouse live in a rural hollow adjoining forest land. Late one night the spouse heard odd sounds from the porch, and the writer began recording. A loud yelling vocalization continued for an extended period, at times apparently answered from farther away before seeming to approach. Domestic and neighboring dogs reacted fearfully.

Cryptid sighting near Detroit, Oregon

During a summer camp, four youths hiked to a small lake with a vertical log sticking out of the water. On the second day the log went underwater and resurfaced, then a wide dark orb-like mass moved from the log location in an S shape toward a relative on a float. It disappeared about 10 to 15 feet away, and the group ran back to camp.

On a different night while staying at the ranch cabin, the witness thought something was looking in the bedroom window. She was frightened, avoided looking at the window, and later slept on the owners floor. She did not get a clear look and remained uncertain what it was.

The witness was sitting in a parked car with headlights on while companions searched a creek on a ranch property on a rainy night. She noticed a dark figure beside the road and watched it cross the road in one or two upright fluid steps. She described it as tall, hairy and more manlike than bearlike, seen from about 25 to 30 feet away.

UFO sighting in Oregon

After returning to his mother's house, the witness went to bed but woke to see a bright light approaching across the fields and entering through the window to hover over him. He felt a warm paralyzing sensation and fled to his mother's bed. While lying there he saw a floating bull-skull-like vision and heard his sleeping mother make a bull-like sound before waking her.

While driving home after letting his dogs out, the witness stopped and glassed a red taillight-colored dot. Through binoculars it was a large perfectly round orb descending from the sky into timber about a mile away. He fumbled with his phone and got no photo, then told his wife and neighbor.

During a period when bucks acted unusually spooked, the witness waited at a stump until dark. He heard a man-like cough nearby then jumbled talking like two or three people, but saw no one and no lights. The voices seemed to wait until he passed then move back along the road he had come down.

Howl in Oregon

While glassing with a companion days before elk season, the witness heard a loud cow-like calling Howl from a steep creek bottom. The sound moved to the ridge top in about five to ten minutes, far faster than he felt a person could climb. It stopped at the top and was not identified as elk or bear.

The witness's niece saw two dark figures step out from a tree line into a small meadow near their rural homes. Their eyes were red and glowing in the dim light just after dusk. She ran home frightened and only told the story after hearing her aunt's encounter.
