Blacksmith recalls seeing a creature come down a mountainside and shares a sketch he drew

Two teenagers were collecting nightcrawlers behind a rural house just after dark when they heard something moving down through dense briars on a nearby logging road. The witness shone a flashlight and watched a very tall, muscular, hair-covered animal move past about 60 feet away for several seconds. The pair were frightened, and the next day they used a sapling to estimate its height at nine feet.
