Account
Two people were searching for shed antlers along deer trails when they heard a branch snap. The writer looked up and saw an ape-like figure about 45 yards away that watched him for several minutes. The figure was about 7 feet tall and brownish-black and then walked over a slight hill. The writer followed slowly and saw a second figure with the first before leaving.
