It was during the colder months. There were three of them on the path. I think it was a female and two adolescents. One of them tried to get closer to me by heading up the back of a hill. I threw a rock at it to deter it, then we turned around and headed back down. The eyes and the way it moved in the dark were very catlike. I've not seen any bears or coyotes that would move like that.
