Follow-up investigation report:

Jeff Lemley and I were able to meet with the witness at the sighting location. We recreated the scene, Jeff modeling the movements of the animal and the witness and I driving toward the location at the same speed he was traveling at the time of the sighting. The recreation of the event revealed the following:
1. The animal was 2-3 feet taller than Jeff's (5'10").
2. The animal's stride was nearly twice the length of Jeff's.
3. The grey/dirty white color was the color and not light
reflection and shadows. The dirt in the area is grey volcanic ash and could account for the color of this animal.
4. The animal's arms hung much lower than Jeff's.
5. The animal covered ground much quicker than Jeff.
