Evening sighting by ice fisherman near Friendship Lake
Account
The witness and a relative were driving near a pond at dusk when they saw two large white hairy beings carrying a very large object over a hill toward the pond. When the witnesses stopped to watch, the beings dropped the object, fell to the ground, and tried unsuccessfully to hide in brush. The witnesses drove a short distance to turn around for a better view, and on returning about a minute later the beings and the object were gone.
