1 witness
Account
The witness was walking home from pheasant hunting on a ridge before dark. He noticed a dark upright figure about a quarter-mile away walking toward the mountains. He shouted twice; it turned its whole upper body to look at him once, then kept walking. He watched for about 15 minutes until it disappeared, speculating it had been lying down before standing up.
