Account
While driving with family to camp before the holiday, the witness's daughter pointed out a large hairy figure. About a hundred yards away it walked away through weeds along the bank, seen from the knees up. It looked upright and man-shaped with orange-brown hair and a dirty yellow stripe on the head.
