Account
After hiking, the witness was driving back toward the highway in early afternoon when a tall dark humanlike figure crossed the road about 50 yards ahead. The figure continued up a very steep bank while remaining upright. The witness was alone and stated it was not a bear and that they had never seen such a creature before or since.
