Couple relate possible sighting on their back deck and unexplained activity while camping near Hart

Account

Around 3:30 a.m. on a bright moonlit night, the witness saw a large figure squatting by the back deck, apparently looking in the windows. The witness chased the figure into the woods but lost it. On returning, the witness realized its head had cleared a nearby shed, suggesting it was much taller than the witness's own 6-foot-2 frame, which left the witness badly frightened.
