Account
The witness was leaving a staging area in a jeep after offroading when two panicked deer ran out of the treeline. Looking to the right to see what chased them, the witness saw the upper half of a large primate-like face staring through pine boughs in the offroad lights. The creature swung its arm at the boughs as if agitated, then moved deeper into the treeline and disappeared, after which the witness left.
