UK Gypsies vacate Colorado campsite after encounter with 7' creature
Account
A large group was gathered for a nighttime barbecue and fire at a forest clearing when a very loud high-pitched scream was heard from just outside the clearing. Moments later a very tall powerfully built ape-like creature covered in long beige hair with dark areas on the face and elbows was seen entering the clearing and then leaving at great speed. The group fled in panic leaving belongings behind, and a follow-up visit about a week later found no belongings or tracks.
