π Description
around 7:30am we arrived by helicopter at work (heli-logging) the helicopter dropped 4 men off in the block which we were logging, me and another man were in the landing. Every morning there were usually 2 goats we would watch on a near by mountain top. we looked up, no goats but what we did see was unbelievable. a human shaped creature walking along the ridge we watched this "thing" walk around for about 20 minutes on 2 legs (IT WAS DEFINATLY 100% NOT A BEAR!) it was brown in colour and we all figure it stood 11-13 feet tall it the stopped and watched us for awhile it stood still for about 5 minutes like a tree thinking we didnt see it i assume. then as our helicopter came up from service 3 of us witnessed the critter bend over just like a man would too touch his toes and then stand straight again, we looked away for a minutes too start logging, looked back and it was gone! now i have seen alot of animals in my time but never anything like this. 3 days later i shifted out for aweek when i came back 3 of our crew said they were up walking our grapple block and came across a whole bunch of tracksthey said the tracks were about 16 inches long and about 7 inches wide, i did not personally see the tracks but i do not disbelieve them. and finally my last day at work august 31 2004 before school starts back up here in 2 days, we moved our gear over to another landing to cold deck for the day. new road it was just pushed in a week before so it was a soft and muddy road eh... we arrived and there were game tracks all over the place, so me and my partner were just wandering around checking out the tracks when he says " u gotta see this" there it was plain as DAY i saw it with my own eyes 4 tracks in the mud made by a 2 legged creature the foot print was not much bigger than my own foot a size 12 mans but it was wider and had bigger toes, (just a small bugger we figure) but there it is and there u have u have it. i never would have thought of writing this down until i read the story about the man at whiteswan lake because.... thats where we were logging and still are.
