Sundown sighting by teen on bicycle in Eau Galle River bottoms

27 July 2006 late afternoon Eau Galle, Dunn County, Wisconsin 1 witness

Account

In July 2006 the witness was biking through a swampy, wooded area toward a friend's house in the late afternoon. Near a knoll the witness heard sticks breaking and footsteps, then saw a tall dark figure to the side and heard a frightening vocalization. The witness screamed and pedaled away fast while continuing to hear breaking sticks, and the creature reportedly fled bipedally in the opposite direction during about ten seconds of observation.
