Possible Bigfoot Near San Francisco Airport

In the summer of 1977 or 1978, four young men in their late teens or early 20's were riding their skate boards about 11pm at Coyote Point, California, located near the San Francisco Airport. They chose this spot because there were no cars or people around at night, so they had complete access to the roads for skate boarding. They heard a low growl and looked over to see an upright figure silhouetted by the dim porch light coming from a nearby ranger building. It was shaking a small tree which it then pushed over to the ground. They couldn't see any specific details, but they immediately left the area never to return.
