Account
Two companions on a dirt-bike camping trip found a trail they had used all day blocked by a large log at dusk and camped overnight. Around midnight something large crashed through brush, rocks were thrown into camp, and loud screaming and growling occurred. The pair fled in their truck, leaving gear behind, and returned briefly at midday the next day to retrieve it.
