Passengers travelling to the Arizona Snowbowl ski area have a possible daytime sighting
Account
While driving up a mountain road toward a ski area in the early afternoon, the witness and a relative saw a very tall dark figure through a gap in trees from a slowly moving car. The figure was walking away at an angle with long strides and prominent arm swing before passing out of view after about five seconds. The driver did not see it, and the observers were frightened and continued driving without stopping.
