Dusk sighting by two women near Three Lakes (w/sketch by artist)
Account
Two witnesses driving west on Highway 41 between Three Lakes and Tioga around sunset stopped to watch a tall white-furred biped standing on a hilltop south of the road. They described it as human-like but much larger, covered in long flowing hair, watching them from about 100 to 150 feet away for about 30 seconds. They then left unnerved, stating they had consumed only coffee.
