Footsteps in South Dakota (1970)

Account

At age six or seven the witness slept alone in a tent about fifteen feet behind the cabin as a toughness challenge. Half asleep, the witness felt picked up in the sleeping bag and carried about seventy-five yards away from the cabin into the woods, realizing from the receding back light and long strides it was not a parent. After a deep grunt and another approaching, the carrier returned and placed the witness back in the tent, where the witness woke reversed and partly outside the tent.
