Multiple witness sighting in daylight in a remote area near Holden
Account
As a young boy playing by a creek with a friend, the witness noticed a hair-covered man-like figure across the water stepping between rocks while looking down. He fetched his father, who returned with other adults and binoculars, and the group watched for 10 to 15 minutes while debating what it was. The figure eventually noticed them and walked away upstream into wilderness.
