Account
The witness had camped alone in a remote valley and left before dawn to hunt elk from a high outcropping. After sunrise he noticed a dark figure squatting by a beaver pond that then stood upright, looked in his direction, and walked through the creek toward his camp before continuing up a ridge. After watching for several minutes, he left the overlook, packed his camp, and says he has not returned.
