Men have sighting on creature at Baseline Drive, Mt Hood
Account
The witness and a companion were resting on a gravel pile when they saw a hair-covered figure sitting on a stump several hundred feet away. They approached closer to observe it watching them and shifting slightly before losing sight of it behind a hill crest. Upon reaching the stump they found flattened spikes, smashed grass, a trail into the trees, and a large bed-like depression, then left quickly.
