Account
Tyler with 5 other hikers about 12 miles off the Trans Canada Highway near Lake Louise, saw a 6-foot blond biped come across their path from above and go on down the slope. Their dog started in pursuit, than a fair size tree was pushed over about 50 yards from them, the creature being out of sight in the trees, and the dog came back. Not clear how many saw the creature.
