Two couples shine owl and observe large hairy primate
Account
In summer 1981 four young people parked at night with headlights toward the woods and noticed eyeshine high in the trees. When bright headlights were turned on they reported seeing a huge standing figure that turned and walked away, prompting them to flee in reverse. They returned in daylight the next day and noted a large circular area of burned grass tops.
