Account
The witness had walked from camp toward a rock promontory near the Yampa River canyon. A man-like figure covered in dark reddish-brown hair approached along the cliff edge from about 100 feet away. When it noticed the witness it retreated into juniper and pinyon, making scrambling noises as it left.
