Account
The witness and companions were camping in an otherwise empty campground when they heard prolonged movement in a tree behind them. A branch high up was moving, then something fell or jumped out and hit the ground hard. They shone lights on it and watched it walk away, describing it as tall, broad-shouldered, hairy, and foul-smelling.
