Account

The witness was hiking above the dam at Deadwood Reservoir when he noticed movement uphill about 60-70 yards away. A reddish, bulky bipedal animal stood, looked toward him, then walked quickly uphill out of sight. He also heard deep grunting, left camp early, and said the encounter challenged his prior skepticism.
