Account
The witness was camping with two friends in the mountains and got up before dawn to use the bathroom. Behind the shelter he noticed a small furry shape peering from beside a tree. When he charged to scare it, it slipped behind the tree and vanished without sight or sound, prompting him to retreat and later leave the area.
