My family has been searching for a Sasquatch of sorts. We've come to call it the Man-a-Bear. (By my family I mean extended, about 100 of us) We've only had 2 sightings, including the first one which sparked the interest. And that's been over about 20 years. Darn bugger is a bit of a recleus...

Oh, yeah, I forgot to mention where! We saw him (not me personally, but about 20 family members while camping out) in the north woods of Wisconsin.

Wow, where is this? I'm just know getting in to looking for a BF type creature. I want to learn more. Where have they spotted this creature?

This is about 30 miles north of Spooner, WI. The description of the Manabear is unlike any I've seen or read about for a Bigfoot, except for it...you guessed it...Big feet. The thing had long shaggy hair, an elongated neck (that's the part I've never read about) and it's arms hung to about it's knees. It had a strange lope which covered ground really quickly, but looked akward. And it didn't seem to like horses.

One legend which has developed, which I'm pretty sure is false, is that the call of a whipoorwhil will scare it away. I think the reason for this was I was really young when it happened, and my uncles, aunts, and second cousins were really freaked by the encounter. They kept talking about it, and it freaked us kids out. There are tons of whipoorwhils there, so I think they said that to make us feel safer at night. Now I just want to see the little bugger...

Where exactly is it? I might be going with my boyfriend on a road trip to Washing and Oregon next summer, and that would be a fun thing to look at.

I'm thinking Olympic Mountains around the Forks or Skykomish river valley area. In my opinion, this is prime area...
