While scouting a timbered hill at 7000', hikers see a bipedal animal stand up & walk away
Account
Two people scouting a cliffband saw a dark form by a lone tree on a flat buttress about 300-400 yards away. The form swayed, then stood up and walked with fluid motion into the timber in a few strides. Later at their truck about three-quarters of a mile away, their dog growled toward the woods and they left quickly.
