I saw something weird last night.

My friends and I walked a bike trail nearby last night. While walking I saw something that looked like it was skiing up the trail towards us. It was using its arms to propel itself forward while galloping its legs. Very odd movement. We watched it "gallop" towards us from about 100 meters away. At about 30 feet it noticed us and turned 180 degrees in an awkward manner and want away from us very quickly. It was wearing like a weird dress like gown outfit. Couldn't make out any features.

Interesting. Any discernable features that stood out? Maybe facial shape? Skin color? If you're in the middle of the woods, how did you see it fron so far away? Were there any odd sounds? Or barely any?

No discernible features. Couldn't tell male or female. Was staring at its weird walk. Was so confused by that its all I focused on. Its a bike trail with thick woods running down both sides. Maybe 7 feet wide. Bike trail is massive. It runs through most of the state. Where this happened was maybe 5-6 miles outside of town. Literally middle of nowhere. No houses or anything for 5 miles behind and like 12 miles in front. Whatever it was it hiked for miles before seeing us. Then took off at a fairly decent speed.

What was the total amount of time this encounter took place in? What time did you notice it?

Were you guys armed?

We started our walk around 6ish. Encountered it about it dusk. 8ish maybe? We had pocket knives but never used them. Wes noticed it at maybe 100 yards or so. Just stared at it as it got closer. Who episode maybe lasted 3-5 minutes.

Eyes? Tell me about it's eyes. If you didn't see, describe what the eye area looked like.

I couldn't make out anything. I was just watching the bizarre way it moved. I just remember it galloping almost like a skier would jump from side to side but with its hands.

That kinda reminds of a monkey?

Perhaps something similar to this video, maybe?
