A
dark shape was accidentally caught on video on a trip to King Mountain
overlooking the Pontiac region. This was
a second follow up visit after June 25th. A large black head was later noticed in the
trees in a video; the figure was named ‘Owen’ for reference.
This
was my second visit to King Mountain lookout after a previous visit on Tuesday
June 25th, 2024; I rode my mountain bike up the mountain. The Gatineau parkway was closed on this day
of the week, so there were very few people.
I had taken pictures and videos at the summit of the mountain
overlooking the Pontiac region. I walked
along the rocky ridge and headed back down the trail called sentier du Mont
King. The nearest lake in this area is
Black lake near the beginning of the trail.
This
return visit was on Friday July 12th, 2024 and I rode my mountain
bike up the mountain to King mountain trail and did the same hike. I made my way to the summit and stopped a
while at the lookout on top. While
sitting on the bench, two ladies walked by coming from the opposite direction
with their dog. They greeted me and
commented on the hot weather, and moved on.
I took photos and videos of the area, and
spanned my camera a few times to capture the view of the Pontiac region, and
the multiple berry bushes full of red berries (service berries or
huckleberry?). After a while I headed
back in the woods, and down the mountain again. I got back to my bike and rode back home.
It
was only ten days later, after reviewing footage, that I noticed on a video
from the second hike, that there was an
anomaly in the tree line on the summit of the mountain. Upon closer examination, it looked like a
large round head between the trees. This
video was taken at 10:25 am on July 12th and lasts about 30 seconds.
I
checked a picture of that exact location I took on June 25th, and
that dark round shape was not there.
I
checked again on another photo I took six minutes before taking this video, and
a dark shadow is seen behind a branch at that same location. Moments later, I took this video and in the
screenshot of the figure, that branch seems to be pushed aside, revealing the
dark head shape.
Based
on other trees in the area, I estimate the height of this blackish shape to be at
around 8 – 9 feet tall (See photos).
