Family is approached near their forest cabin
Account
About 11 years ago the witness was sorting shakes outside a cabin when a tied dog began growling toward the forest. The witness saw a large hairy bipedal figure moving from tree to tree, appearing to approach while staying behind cover. The witness called two children out to watch it, and the figure left when the witness's partner arrived.
