Class B First-hand BFRO #70737

Heavy thuds and distinct rock clacking north of Teanaway Butte (Wenatchee NF)

October 2010 evening about 4pm Cle Elum, Teanaway Wilderness Area, Kittitas County, Washington 1 witness

Account

The witness was hiking alone and sitting on a bluff when he heard heavy thudding sounds like footsteps, followed by rock-clacking sounds from brush about 40-50 yards away. He exchanged rock bangs with the unseen source for about 10-15 minutes, with it mimicking the number of bangs he made. He became frightened as it got dark and returned to camp without seeing the source.
