Initial data
According to 21-year-old Ivan N., a group of 12 tourists, including 7 adults and 5 teenagers, spent the second day of the tour, camping on the plateau between north Demerdzhi and Table Mountain. There were several Muscovites in the group.
The night was very bright, with a full moon. The children fell asleep, and the adults sat idle.
Ivan's assistant Alexander and several other people went to the nearest forest to meet some physiological needs. When they returned to the camp, they were trembling with fear, and then the whole group heard a terrible growl or growl very close to the camp. The men went outside the perimeter of the camp, and Alexander armed himself with an axe.
A few moments later, they all saw strange creatures that looked like "wild people" or animals, just a few meters away from them.
There were 3 creatures, ranging from 2 to 2.5 m in height, their actual height was difficult to determine because they bent over and periodically sat on their forelimbs. All three of them looked like huge monkeys and growled. Their faces were very dark, and their eyes were almost invisible. Their heads were low on their shoulders, and there was almost no neck. They had what looked like humps on their backs.
Alexander came closer and saw that the hairy creatures were covered with light fur on the head and eyebrows, and some areas on the shoulders. The witnesses could not tell what gender the creatures were. The creatures seemed aggressive, but not overtly so, and seemed more curious.
The witnesses were frightened, and Alexander was trembling with fear. The children woke up and came out of their tents after hearing growls, and were startled by the tears and screams of some of the girls.
The meeting or "siege" lasted about 40-45 minutes, and all the men became powerless because of the terrible fear. Finally, the strange creatures turned around and left in a strange way, both in hope and in a leap. The witnesses could not sleep for the rest of the night, and in the morning they could not find any footprints or prints, as the ground was covered with a thick layer of fallen leaves. Some of those present tried to film the event, but the film turned out to be very bad and fuzzy, probably due to poor lighting.

As told by 21-year old Ivan N. a group of 12 tourists, including 7 adults and 5 teenagers, were spending their second day of tour camped on the plateau between northern Demerdzhi and Stol-Gora. Several Moscow residents were in the group. The night was very light and there was a full moon. The children had gone to sleep while the adults sat around. Ivan’s assistant Alexander and several more men had gone to nearby woods in order to satisfy some physiological needs. When they returned to the camp they were trembling with fear and then the whole group heard a frightful snarl or growl very close to the camp. The men went to the perimeter of the camp, Alexander armed with an axe. Moments later they all saw strange creatures resembling “wild men” or animals only a few meters away. There were 3 creatures, about 2 to 2.5m in height, their real height was difficult to establish, because they were bending over and periodically sat down on their front extremities. All three resembled huge apes, and were growling. Their faces were very dark, and the eyes were almost not visible. Their heads were positioned low over their shoulders almost lacking necks. On their backs they had something resembling humps. Alexander was closer and saw that the hairy creatures were covered in light fur on their heads and eyebrows, with some areas on their shoulders. The witnesses could not tell what sex the creatures were. Creatures appeared to be aggressive but not openly, and appeared more curious. The witnesses became terrified, Alexander trembling with fear. The children woke up and came out of their tents after hearing the growling noises and became terrified with some of the girls crying and screaming. The encounter or “siege” lasted for about 40-45minutes, with all the men becoming impotent due to the terrible fear felt. Finally the strange creatures turned around and walked away in strange manner, like hoping or jumping. The rest of the night the witnesses were unable to sleep and in the morning they failed to find any tracks or prints since the ground had been covered with a thick layer of fallen leaves. Some of those present attempted to film the event but the film was very poor and indistinct probably because of the poor lighting.
