OBSERVED:    We where just kids at a summer Youth Conservation Camp - We had taken bikes down to the old town general store - just down the mountain across the XXXXX river - XXX and XXX where with me. XXX was from South Boston - XXX from Some coastal north shore town - Me - well who cares - we where on our ay back from the store on our bikes- when I spotted a huge shadow in the woods just next to a field. I stopped and XXX and XXX rode off- They glanced back at me and I waved them to come here. The smell was horrendous. A combination of burnt hair and bad bad body odor. They came back and I pointed look at that shadow it moved - I thought it was a bear. They laughed and said it was a rock. XXX picked up a fist size rock and threw it.
