Class A First-hand BFRO #24127

Partridge hunter has a daylight sighting while driving from Germfask

September 2002 between 1:45 and 2:15 p.m. Germfask, Manistique, Schoolcraft County, Michigan 1 witness

Account

The witness was driving to work along a gravel river road in the early afternoon, hunting partridge along the way. About 30 to 40 yards ahead, the witness saw a tall, thin, dark-haired figure emerge from pines, pause to look toward the vehicle, then turn and run parallel to the road. Frightened, the witness reversed, loaded a shotgun, waited for another vehicle, then followed it past the area without finding sign.
