Daylight sighting by hunters in Spring Canyon, outside the town of Helper
Account
While a group was slowly driving and looking for deer, two young men riding in the back of the pickup saw a dark, long-armed figure walking quickly across an open grassy ridge toward pines. They described long strides and swinging arms and said it walked fast rather than ran. They banged on the cab to stop the driver, but the people in the cab did not see it.
