Account

The witness was driving southbound with a companion in the afternoon when both noticed a large dark hairy figure moving through fallen timber beside the road. They described full front-to-back arm swings, massive arms, clumpy blackish hair and no neck, visible from the waist up for about six seconds. The driver stopped and turned around but had no further sighting.
