me and a friend were down behind my house hunting for sasquatch. i decide to walk the field down to the orchard were i had stones thrown at me a week prior. i had our parabolic dish and a walkie talkie. i stared down by the orchard i noticed a discoloration in the grass but i thought my eyes were playing tricks on me so i headed down another 10 foot and had my friend do a couple of howls. i stared back to the barn i stoped to listen through the dish when the bigfoot stood up in the area were i saw the discoloration. i was about 20 feet from it. i was so excited that i droped the dish and just stood there looking at it. i beleve it was a male it had an appendage hanging between its legs. i tried to talk to sandy through the walkie and i couldnt even get the words out. when i began talking it turned and ran through the orchard and across the creek it took 2 steps to go through the creek and then it went out of sight. sandy came down and we stayed there for a while listening and watching through or night vision but it went silent after that. when i was looking at this bigfoot and he was looking at me i felt as if he was looking into my soul it did not scare me but i was in aw that i had seen this ellusive creature. in retro spect the bigfoot knew i was there and he was hiding and he could have contuined hinding but he sood up to show himself to me which i find intriguing to me. My wife and her friend saw this same creature a few weeks prior not far from this sight.

Hello,
My name is D L and i am a Law Enforcement Officer ( Constable ) here in the
southwestern pa (Uniontown) . I have the upmost respect for your group because i am a firm believer in this creature. I did not ever believe in “BIGFOOT”until one night in september while doing security for a new windmill farm located in Farmington,Pa. It was around 3:30 am and as usual about and around that time people do tend to dose off as i was doing, but waking up every 2 minutes or so. I was sitting in the gravel parking lot at the site where the office trailers were for the companies who were doing the construction for the windmills. I awoke to 3 loud screams and wondered what the hell was that. As i was looking around the area that i was guarding and noticed directly in front of me about 40 yards or so a black rounded object that was to the left of the pole with a street light on it. Also this had a big piece of plywood which was in front of the lightpole which blocked the pole and had 14 electric meters on the plywood for the office trailers. Also there was a small pile of gravel with mud,clay and dirt mixed in with the gravel. I looked at this for approximately a minute or so and then disregarded it as a shadow from the light above because it did not move.
As soon as i turned my head i caught movement out of the corner of my eye and immediatley focused back at that same point and noticed that the “SHADOW” was gone. I continued to watch this particular area very closley and to no avail THERE IT WAS. It showed itself from under the light and was in a hunched down position moving very fast, dark black in color,very shinny coat,and HUGE. It’s thighs were imense as well as the rest of it, and as i watched the BIGFOOT walk hunched over it began to raise up while trying not to be noticed. I saw the back of it’s head when it was raising up to walk normally and it was cone shaped. This whole sighting was over in about 2-3 seconds due to it going behind a office trailer. To be truthful i was scared shitless even though being armed to the T with all the things i carry on my duty belt while doing Constable work. Immediatley i called on our 2 way radio that the company had provided us to the other guard who was doing roving patrol and asked him to get there to my spot ASAP. He did arrive and i had told him what had happened and of course he laughed at me. But the next night while i was out he said he heard screams like i did. Also that same night he went to a porta john to use the bathroom. He said when he was in there that the porta john was lifted off of the ground and shaken and then put back down (Don the security guard weighs 300 + pounds ). He called me on the radio and i responded within 2 minutes at his location. He had asked me if i was messing around with
him and my reponse was what are you talking about. Then he did explain to me what had happened. He also stated that there was a very fowl odor when this was happeneing to him (Ex: Rotting flesh, BO, Urine, etc )I told him it was bigfoot,,and he replied , ” I kind of believe you now”
That morning we walked over to the area i saw Bigfoot and saw with my own eyes one foot print that was outlined in the gravel,mud,clay and dirt. I was saying to myself,,,wow,this really happened and i did see what i saw. Where Dons activity happened was pure gravel and no mud, clay or dirt so no prints
were found. I left work at 6am and proceeded home. When i arrived at home i immediately got on the internet and called a group here in pa close to me called http://pabigfootsociety.com/ [2] . Eric the researcher called me with within 2 hours of me posting a message to him on his site. I could tell that he was excited and that i was telling him the absolute truth about my experience. He asked me if it was possible to come out that night and see if they could get any response from what i had saw. I told him yes you can come out after 8:30 pm. He did show up with about 12 other people. They all had tape recorders, and hand held thermal imaging devices. They began there experiment, whooping,tree knocks,screams and within 5 minutes they got an answer back. Not one but 3 screams and tree knocks from 3 different areas that were close to us. Eric told me that there was 3 bigfoots and not 1. My mouth dropped open and i said “what”? Being that i worked there i was very scared to even come back to work being that i saw one there and only thinking one was there,but dealing with three of these bigfoots,oh crap. Eric and his team did come back several times and got only one response back given on the other times that they were there and said that southwestern pa is a very “HOTSPOT”for activity due to there is a lot of caverns in this area. I do not work there anymore but i have learned a lot form this experience”NOT TO BE AFRAID” and not to harm or shoot these animals which i would not do now unless my life depended on it. FYI: 1973 Jumonsville, Pa sightings, 1978 Republic, Pa sightings, 2005-2006, Downtown Uniontown sighting, 1998, Keisterville, Pa sighting and so on. Due to having
numerous caves in this area it seems to me that there is alot of sightings in and around the
Southwestern part of Pa.
I am now trying to capture one of these animals on film,camcorder to show the world that they do exist and that they are not fake or fiction. From first hand experience i can tell you that i believe in
“BIGFOOT” now. I would like to invite you and your group here if you have the means by doing so in the near future to explore southwestern,pa along with your help to show the world that they do exist among us.

Year: 1994
Month: July
Day of Month (number only – e.g. 16): don’t remember
Time of Day: late at night
County: Pennsylvania Monroe

Conditions:

Terrain Description: Swampy area in deciduous woodland. This occurred either in Big
Pocono State Park or in the woods bordering it, off of Railroad Avenue, near a Christian camp called Streamside. I was a 17 year old camp counselor at the time. There was a trail through this wooded area I had walked numerous times and had the notion that it would be fun to to there at night, to practice walking in the woods in the dark without a flashlight (I brought one but tried to use it as little as possible). I suppose it was a bit of a thrill-seeking kind of thing. In any case my idea was to walk to a spot I had identified in daylight, which I knew to be far enough from roads and houses to feel isolated and quiet, and to sit quietly in the dark for a period of time just to see what I might hear or experience. I had no belief or thoughts one or the other about Sasquatch or anything at the time, I was just a budding amateur naturalist who enjoyed being in the woods and was always seeking a new experience. I got to the place and sat down without the flashlight in near complete darkness. I don’t recall if it was overcast or if there was any moon, but I know that I could see almost nothing. I sat for perhaps 15 minutes in absolute silence, meditating in a sense I suppose. At that point I heard a rustling and distinct snuffling in the leaves near to where I sat on the trail. I listening for probably a minute, trying to decide what I’d do.
Part of me wanted to stay and see what critter might be bold enough to investigate me…but then I
thought what if it’s a bear? Honestly, I was more scared or worried that it might be a skunk than
anything and so ultimately I decided to make a bit of noise to scare off whatever it was. I couldn’t tell from the sounds whether it was large or small, just that it snuffed or snorted and that it was pawing at debris noisily. So I made a sound – I don’t remember what I did, maybe just spoke out loud – then I stood up, and prepared to head back down the trail when I heard a very very loud and very close bugling call. All I knew in that moment was that whatever made the sound was big and required big lungs. It was throaty and loud. It sounded to me as if it came from within 10 or 20 feet of where I stood, and sounded either distressed or hostile. I have called it a “bugling” sound because it started in a low-ish pitch and then rose sharply and sustained. At the moment I was not going through possible species in my head I was just alarmed and sufficiently freaked out to run. As I jogged along the trail to get out of the woods I heard the sound again. It sounded as if it were still where I had left it, and then to my left in the woods I heard a response call from the same animal. I can’t remember if I heard any further vocalizations after all these years but I at least heard those three…the initial one, the same animal (presumably) again, and then a response from a different spot at least a 1/4 mile or so from the first. So I huffed and puffed into the staff lounge at the camp, desperately wanting to tell someone about my experience and the only guy there at that late hour looked at me politely like I was nuts, so I cut my story short and laughed it off. The next day I told the one guy who I thought might have a clue about what it could be. He was
the resident nature expert who went by “Nature Joe.” I wish I could find Joe, as he was a phenomenal guy and a walking wildlife encyclopedia. He traveled from Florida every summer to camp, collecting animal companions along the way and would arrive with snakes, tortoises, even bats which would then share his cabin over the summer. In any case, Joe took me very seriously and was quite excited to get involved. He proposed we return to the woods that night with a small group of interested folks and see what we might find. I believe three or four of us went out that night. He instructed us in how to walk as silently as possible and how to make animal like sounds that would be non-threatening to wildlife. We were under strict orders not to speak until we had finished our little exploration. At one point, we clearly heard a bipedal creature crunching through the woods nearby. At another point Joe seemed to become aware of some sound and we would pause here and there to listen, then proceed, etc. He signaled for us to all shine our lights in one spot on his cue. We followed his instructions, and shined the light to our left at a specific spot only maybe 3 feet off the trail. A big bobcat froze in our lights and then casually loped off. He later said the bobcat was likely tracking us out of curiosity, and it was the safest thing to do to have scared it off before it got too bold. In any case, we did not see or hear my mystery creature that
night or any other – other than hearing the bipedal walking. So that’s my story. I sort of forgot about it for a while, and assumed it was something known. But in the last few years I looked up animal call audio and none of the known Pocono large animals make sounds that resemble what I heard. It was not entirely unlike the bugle of a male Elk. However there are no Elk anywhere near Northeastern PA and truly the sound in my recollection has more in common with primate sounds. I watched a monsterquest episode the other day and they played a purported Sasquatch vocalization and I about jumped out of my chair because it sounded so much like what I heard. I tried to tell my story in as unembellished a manner possible, but you’ll have to forgive the length. I’m a writer and I’m not good at brevity! I’d be happy to answer any other questions or talk about it further if anyone is interested.
Lighting Conditions: late at night, completely dark
Nearest Town or Landmark: Big Pocono State Park, Stroudsburg area
GPS Coordinates: I’d be guessing if I included this. I could possibly walk to the spot again if I could find the trail that was there. But it’s been a while.
Description of Encounter Area: Slightly boggy trail near the foot of Big Pocono mountain. southeast
of the mountain. Deciduous woods with a lot of mountain laurel if I remember correctly.
Are There Food and/or Water Sources in the Area? (if so, describe): The area was low-lying and
wet, and I believe there was a stream within a 1/4 mile of there. Not sure what food sources the
question has in mind, but it was a typical Poconos forest in July.

7/21/09: Contacted the Witness by phone and he took me through his story largely as it is described above, and offered some additional details. He mentioned that there’s an abundance of bears in his area and this not a bear. he used the works “like a big dork” to describe how the creature ran across the road in front of, estimating the distance between them to be forty yards. He then turned around and approached it in his car after it crouched down behind a tree about ten feet in the woods. He tried to talk to it and he described the growl the creature made as a mix of werewolf and mountain lion. He claims he stopped some oncoming cars trying to get them involved in seeing the creature, they were amused, causing he to head home. The witness claims he returned to the same spot the next day, but due to rocky terrain there were no tracks, but that “you could tell that something had been there for a little bit.” He has offered to take myself or another investigator to the exact spot, and said he had also contacted the Pennsylvania Bigfoot Society and had one of their researchers out to the spot where photos were taken, so bear in mind this is not an exclusively NESRA report. I left it with the witness that I would let him know if I heard of any other activity in his immediate area and that he would could his eyes and ears open as well. All in all he seemed sincere although at this time there is no physical evidence of the occurence. I am attempting to check with the PBS to find out who investigated for them so we might compare notes

Any Odor? If so, Description: I do not remember an odor. We only had great fear of getting out of the

I went with my boyfriend to Lockout Point Mountain. This area is actually above South Williamsport,
Pennsylvania. It was during the summer, that we made the trip by car into the Lycoming mountains.
Lookout point is known for the beautiful view of South Williamsport and Williamport. We had an old Vega car and it took awhile to get to the top of the mountain. Once we got to the mountain top, we parked our car, at this point, I had a strange feeling, that we needed to lock our doors. I locked my door, and reached over and locked my boyfriend’s door. I asked him if the back of the car was locked and he told me that it was locked. He laughed at me and stated: “there is no one up here, and I don’t know why you are locking our doors.” Something inside me told me to get those door locked, and I did not care if he was laughing at me. Anyway, after the doors were locked, we just relaxed and looked at the beautiful view beneath us. At one point, my boyfriend lean over to my side of the car, and we innocently kissed. At this point, my back was against my car door. Although we were involved in an embrace, we both felt the Vega car rock and I could feel something pulling on my door. At this point, we both looked up and we saw what looked like a large human with hair. I can only tell you that it was dark, and I saw a large figure, probably well over six feet tall, but I could not see a face, because there seem to be too much hair. Even though it was evening, I remember that we had some light with the moon. My boyfriend screamed and I screamed because “something that looked human was trying to open my car door.”
Thank God, I had locked that door, when we first arrived at that Lookout Point. Anyway, after we both
screamed, my boyfriend started the car, and what ever was looking at us, and trying to get into our car, started to run, right down the mountain. I remember thinking that how could a human run down those mountains, because of the heavy brush, and sharp wild thistles. This thing vanished within minutes after we started the car. At this point, my boyfriend drove the car a very short distance at the mountain top to turn around and to get out of the area. All the way down the mountain, we did not see one other car.
So we knew that whatever tried to open my door, was not a human who had park in that mountain
range. There were clearly no cars to be seen on that mountain road. I tried to talk with my boyfriend
about the whole incident, but he refused to talk. He had a better view of what was trying to open my
door, and he just refused to talk about it. He was totally upset and unable to discuss the issue. This was
a twenty-four year old man, who spent four years in the Navy, and he was a student at Williamsport
Area Community College. I was about twenty years old and also a student at Williamsport Community College. We were both students, and we both had jobs while attending college. We did not get involved in the college scene, because we were older, and working kids. I want to make it very clear, that we did not have anything to drink that evening. It was just an innocent adventure to see the mountain top and it ended up being a scary as hell event, to the point, that my boyfriend was too scared to tell me what he saw. I am now 56 years old and I have never forgotten that moment, I truly believe that I had a guardian angel on my shoulder that evening, because something told me to lock my door, and if my door had not been locked, I don’t think that I would be alive today. At that time, I weigh about 125 pounds, and my boyfriend weighed about 150 pounds. Whatever was pulling at my door was much bigger than the two of us. I grew up in Wellsboro, Pennsylvania, and I am a country girl, and I can tell you that the North Western mountains around Wellsboro, and Williamsport, are very dense. Wellsboro, Pennsylvania is the home of the Wellsboro Grand Canyon, which is about 50 miles long. There are many caves and very dense forest in this area. I truly believe we saw something that is related to your Bigfoot. Based on the dense woods, and caves, I also think this area should be of interest to you. I now live in Virginia and I would be glad to talk with you about this story. To let you know, I am a college graduate, I have worked as a Government Contractor for over 20 years, and I am married to a ex-Government Pilot.
My name is Sharon Williammee-Wallingsford, and the name of my ex-boyfriend is Charles Blanchard
from South Williamsport. I believe that he stills lives in that area, we lost touch with one another after I graduated from Williamsport Community College. My email address is: SWallingsford@aol.com [3].
Please note, that South Williamsport had several odd deaths during the early 1970’s in that area of
South Williamsport below the Lookout Point Mountain. These deaths were reported in the Newspaper. I don’t know if there is any connection, but I thought it was very odd. To my knowledge, those deaths were never solved. But I am not sure about this information. I can only tell you that whatever was
pulling at my door did not look like a human being, based on the hair and outline of the body that I saw.

I saw a hairy creature crouching on the opposite shore of the picnic
area i spent the night at. I woke up around 8 or so in the morning and exited my van to releive myself. As I stood there I looked accross the lake and saw a large reature crouching on the opposite shore. It stayed there for about 5 mins and looked like it was washing or playing in the water with its paws or hands. It was not aware of my presence. I stood there dumbfounded and it finally stood up on and walked along the waters edge for a few hundred feet. I ran back to the van and grabbed my camera. I managed to snap a couple of photos of this creature and can submit those upon request.
