Witness Account:
One night i was planning to go camping with my dogs around the summer of 2008. i dont remembrr where the exact location was but i twas around the big thicket between the trinity river i had found a spot in the forest so i set up camp i put my dogs on a chain tied to the tree and around 10:00 pm i had fell asleep then about 2:30 in the morning my dogs kept barking and i had thought they had seen a squirrel or rabbit moving so i wiped it out of my mind and my dogs kept barking and i couldnt sleep so i decided to check out what they were barking at so i got my flashlight and searched around i didnt see anything so i returned to my tent and fell asleep then my dogs woke me up again and i started to get angry tellling my dogs to be quiet theres nothing there then i was wrong i could hear a loud crunch of sticks i wondered if it was a hog so then i took the dogs in the tent with me so they would be quiet and my dogs barked again and i was inside the tant when i saw a shadow of something that ws beetween 6 -7 feet tall and looked in the shadows like it was a tall man wearing a gorrila costume and i had thought this is what people call sasquatch but i was to scared to investigate because i knew this thing is stronger than me and if its possible he could hurt me so i stayed up all that night when it heard my dogs barking it ran away
Physical evidence:
i saw footprints in the mud but didnt collect any evidence the next morning
Sounds:
crunching of leaves and sticks and i think i heard a grunting growling noise
Additional observations:
