Account
Two backpackers hiked off trail and camped in a small canyon in Redwood National Park. Around 7 p.m. they heard a short scream nearby, after which the forest became very quiet. Around 10:30-11 p.m. they heard prolonged rhythmic wailing or howling from a surrounding ridge for several minutes before going to sleep and leaving the next morning.
