Account

The witness was driving with a companion when the companion reported seeing several upright figures. They returned, parked, and the witness watched four dark figures on a hill about 150 feet away, with two larger standing and squatting and two smaller sitting. After the witness howled, the largest swayed between trees then moved toward a smaller one before the group went over the hill and the couple left.
