14-year-old Helen was riding a family snowmobile near Mcwaters with her 2 brothers and 7 teenage friends (all on snowmobiles) when a giant "headlight" rose behind them and flew over the group, illuminating the entire landscape. 

After he left, all the boys "went on the run", leaving Helen behind. The bright light source appeared again and flew over her again. She estimated it to be 60 feet (18.2 m) in diameter. Suddenly its light went out. Helen thought it must be a plane that had crashed somewhere behind her. 

She turned around and retreated about 500 feet (152.4 m), then got out and walked towards a very large dark bulk that she thought she could see through the trees. She was about 50 feet (15.2 m) away when a small cold hand coming over her shoulder grabbed her chin and tried to pull her back. 

Thinking that her younger brother was joking, she broke away and pushed the attacker away, so that he fell into the snow. Turning to face him, she realized that it was a child's figure smaller than her 13-year-old brother. She ran to the snowmobile and picked up the flashlight, pointing it at the man who was now walking slowly toward her. 

She saw a creature about 45 inches (114.3 cm) tall, dressed in dark, close-fitting clothing with a "galvanic" surface and wearing a helmet that covered its head to the chin. Around his face, the rim of the" visor " reflected the light, and his huge eyes also shone brightly in the light, like a cat's. His progress was difficult, perhaps because of the snow. 

Terrified, Helen dropped the flashlight, ran to the snowmobile, and ran away on it. She was joined by other snowmobiles that were returning. 

Her left arm was paralyzed. She was taken to a doctor in Ruin, who gave her a sedative. The next day, several people went to the spot where they found a large chunk of snow that had melted to the ground, 50 feet (15.2 m) in diameter and shaped like a doughnut. 

Next to it were the tracks of two small bipeds, a few yards apart. The tracks were short and wide, with a thumb sticking out.

Summary: Helene, 14, was driving the family snowmobile near McWaters, with her 2 brothers and 7 teen aged friends, all on snowmobiles, when a giant “headlight” rose from behind them and passed over the group, illuminating the whole landscape. After it had gone, all the boys went off on a race, leaving Helene behind. The brilliant light source reappeared and flew back over her; she estimated it as 60 ft in diameter. Suddenly its light went out. Helen thought it must be a plane that had crashed somewhere behind her. She turned around and went back about 500 ft, then got off and walked toward a very large dark bulk which she thought she could make out among the trees. She was within perhaps 50 ft of it when a small, cold hand coming from over her shoulder seized her by the chin and tried to drag her backwards. Thinking it must be her younger brother playing a joke, she broke free and pushed her attacker back so that he fell sitting into the snow. Turning to face him, she realized that it was a childlike figure smaller than her 13-year old brother. She ran back to the snowmobile and got a flashlight, turning it on the person, who was now slowly walking toward her. She saw a being about 45″ tall, clad in dark, close fitting clothing with a “plated” surface, and wearing a helmet that covered his head down to the chin. Around his face the rim of a “visor”, reflected the light, and his enormous eyes also shone brightly in the light, like those of a cat. He was advancing with difficulty, perhaps because of the snow. Terrified, Helene dropped the flashlight, ran to the snowmobile, and fled on it. She was joined by the other snowmobiles, which were returning. Her left arm was paralyzed. She was taken to a doctor at Rouyn, who gave her a sedative. The next day several people went to the place, where they found a large patch of snow melted down to the ground, 50ft in diameter and shaped like a donut. Beside it were the tracks of 2 small bipeds, a few yards away from each other; the tracks were short and broad with a large protruding great toe.
