Boys observe hairy man-like creature several times
Account
Two days after a distant sighting, the witness and companions were walking back toward the cabin across a field on a sunny day. About 50 yards away they saw a creature sitting on an old tree stump just inside the woods watching them. The witness said it turned by moving its whole upper torso as if it had no neck, then looked back before the group fled.
