Woman reports sighting at the edge of backyard
Account
On a sunny mid-July 2004 afternoon the witness went to sit on the back porch after the dogs barked then whined at the dog door. From about 200-300 yards away she watched a tall rust-colored hairy biped peeking around a tree and swaying to watch her for about six minutes, later stepping in front of the tree while staying hunched. After checking children in the front yard she found it gone, and later found flattened grass and knapweed at the tree.
