Dusk sighting by hunter on Fort Hunter Liggett
Account
The witness was waiting camouflaged near a creek for wild pigs after sunset. A very large silver-gray biped walked upright along a raised road about 75 feet away, taking several strides through a clearing before disappearing. The witness ran to the road, called out, and drove the area but found nothing, and a next-morning search found no tracks.
