Memory told of seeing an upright figure walk into a shooting lane while hunting near Nashwauk

The witness was deer hunting from a stand when he heard an unfamiliar grunt. He watched a tall brown hair-covered figure approach to about 50 yards, yelled at it, and saw it turn to look before walking away toward cedars. He later returned with his father and estimated its height at about eight feet using nearby tree branches.

The Database of Unexplained Encounters. Claims are recorded as claims: the Anomadex catalogues what people reported, where it was reported, and how sure I am that it was read correctly. It does not rule on what they saw.

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
