Backpackers startle a figure with long white/blonde hair watching Boy Scouts at Grandaddy Lake

11 July 2009 3:00PM Uinta Mountains Near Kamas, Duchesne County, Utah 1 witness

Account

While backpacking and setting up camp, the witness briefly saw a long-haired, light-colored figure watching a nearby scout camp from marshy vegetation. The figure reportedly ran away on two legs with very long, silent strides toward thicker timber. The witness did not see below its shoulders or check for tracks, and later confirmed no one in the scout camp had matching light hair.
