Hikers hear growl, wood knocking, have rock thrown at them
Account
While hiking with a companion, the witness heard a low growling sound that the companion did not hear. Moments later a baseball-sized rock landed where the witness had just been standing, with no visible source. The pair then heard loud wood-on-wood impacts first ahead on the hill and then behind them, which they could not explain. They reported no sighting, odor, or footprints, and nearby hikers with dogs showed no unusual reaction.
