The animal stayed calm and walked slowly into the trees, covering ground quickly despite the truck noise. The witness left without approaching and later searches for tracks were unsuccessful.

Grandson relates grandparents' accounts in the Wasatch-Cache National Forest

Possible vocalizations heard near East Canyon Reservoir

Other family members are reported to have heard the same vocalizations over about ten years. The witness, described as a hunter familiar with native animal sounds, found alleged bigfoot recordings similar but not exactly the same.
