Deer hunter watches large upright walking animal on Butler Knob

The witness was deer hunting alone on a remote mountain ridge in the early morning around 1972-73. From about 400 yards away on another ridge, the witness watched a very large, very dark upright figure for several minutes. The figure was first mistaken for a bear but kept walking upright too long to be a bear, paused to manipulate a tree limb, then walked over the ridge and was not seen again.

A quick ask from the person behind the Anomadex: if you allow analytics, Google Analytics shows me which places, phenomena and searches you're most curious about. That tells me which regions and sources to add next and what to make easier to find. It never sees your name or anything you send me, and nothing is set unless you say yes. Privacy
