Early morning sighting by a young lady while mountain hiking

Spring 1992 after midnight on a clear full moon night Mt. Shasta, Siskiyou County, California 1 witness

Account

The witness was sitting at a campfire at a high mountain camp after midnight with several companions. She noticed a large upright figure standing in a meadow less than 100 yards away and watched it for a couple minutes before it walked away across the meadow into the treeline. She first assumed it was a companion arriving late, but her companions did not arrive for another hour, leading her to conclude it was something else.
