Three men grouse hunting were walking back to their car when a Bigfoot exited the woods about 50 yards ahead of them. It turned and looked at the men.   The man fired a warning shot at the creature.  It fell over and then got up and ran off into the woods.  Creature described as between 6’11 and 7’ 2 in height, covered in dark brown or black hair.  Skin on the hands and face was black in color.  The arms were longer in length. Hands and feet were proportionate to the size of the creature.  They noticed a musky smell.

February 1991, Top of Blue Mountain on the Appalachian Trail, State Game Land #110

During grouse hunting, a man saw a dark creature running up a trail towards. There was at least a foot of snow on the ground, covered with ice. It was very difficult for the man to walk on the trail, and with that, he could not believe someone with running. This creature was not out of breath, nor did it make a sound. Once the creature saw the man, it stopped running, turned and walked away. When the creature turned to look back at the witness, it turned at the torso, just like the creature in the Patterson film. The creature was all black with very long hair. The man could not make out a face through the hair. It was very tall, approximately 7 to 7 1/2 foot and weighed about 400 to 500 pounds. 

September 1988, Helfinstein:
