Account
The witness was camped alone overnight while elk hunting. Between 2 and 3 at night the witness was awakened by a loud scream or yell from the timber, heard it repeat, then heard further calls at diminishing volume as if moving away. The witness stayed in the tent with a firearm and did not see the source. At dawn the witness resumed hunting.
