Account
While hunting with a companion who was napping, the witness was playing with a chipmunk and looked up to see a large dark creature watching him through a pine tree 40 to 60 feet away. He observed part of its head, eye, nose, mouth and shoulder for an unknown time and glanced at rifles nearby. When he looked back a second time the creature was gone silently without tracks he recognized.
