Account
The witness was walking along a creek bank in the late evening when they saw a large brownish-black figure standing down the creek that they first mistook for a bear. They watched unnoticed for a few minutes, then saw it walk away on two legs and concluded it was not a bear, noting its great height and strong smell.
