Account
A coworker and his son were hunting from a ridge when they noticed a leaning fallen tree bouncing as if just moved. They then saw a figure crossing an open hillside that ignored calls, fled into timber when approached, and outran the pursuing coworker while making heavy running noise. Afterward they found only disturbed pine needles, broken limbs, and a partly eaten elk, with no clear tracks.
