Account
While deer hunting on a steep timbered slope in the evening, the witness noticed movement about 70 yards away. The dark, tall figure was judged too tall to be a deer and moved briskly through the trees for about 40 yards without making sound despite dry, crunchy conditions, then turned downhill and disappeared from sight.
