Campers and their dogs are frightened by vocalizations

July 1997 about 1-2 a.m. Galena, Grant County, Oregon 2 witnesses

Account

The witness and their spouse were sleeping in their camper at Big Creek when the spouse heard strange loud vocalizations moving around the campsite for over an hour. After waking, the witness also heard loud screaming-howl sounds from changing directions nearby while their normally vocal dogs hid and shook. Feeling uneasy with only a small-caliber gun, they packed quickly and left the site that night.
