Account
During a major flood the witness was sleeping in the living room by a sliding door overlooking the river. A large hairy figure crawled over the deck railing, broke it and a planter, took three steps across the porch, looked at her, then vanished into the forest. She describes it as heavy, clumsy and hurrying, possibly fleeing the flood.
