Account
The witness and a friend drove slowly toward the glacier toe when a smooth-moving black head crossed ahead. They stopped and entered the brush to investigate. The witness then saw a muscular 6-7 foot brown-haired biped at close range that glanced at him and sprinted away extremely fast over deadfall.
