The witness was driving westbound with three family members and slowed near a bike-trail crossing.

Late at night while driving to help a friend, the witness saw what first looked like logs on the roadside. On closer approach it appeared as a dark hair-covered figure seen from behind, which stepped easily over a roadside railing and went down into the woods toward power lines.

Possible encounter at a state park campsite on the Musconetcong River

The witness and a companion heard splashing and branches moving behind the tent, then the witness saw an elbow-like shape drag down the tent wall. This was followed by loud heavy thuds of something running away from camp.
Hunter has daytime sighting near Shocco Creek
The witness was hunting alone in a forested creek bottom when a bedded deer flushed into tall reeds. From higher ground above the reeds he saw a tall dark mottled figure moving upright across the creek about 50 yards away. The figure turned to look at him, showing a hump on its back, then pushed swiftly through dense vegetation without dodging. The witness left the area and later confirmed no other hunters or vehicles were nearby.
