Footsteps near Astoria, Oregon (2008)
Account
The guest and his wife camped in a small tent off Highway 30 east of Astoria for Thanksgiving. After his dog reacted and brush shook behind dropped water jugs, they heard movement closing in for 30-45 minutes with large things rushing through brush to within 20 feet of the tent. They lay still through the night and left in the morning.
