Tourists recount their viewing of a biped walking up hill in Kananaskis Country
Account
Two people walking near a hotel on a very cold January afternoon noticed a large dark figure moving steadily up a snow-covered hill in the distance. They described it as walking upright and bipedally and appearing larger than a human. They watched it for about 20 to 30 minutes until they had to go inside, and it was gone when they checked again later.
