Man recollects he and his family being followed and hearing close vocalization on Mt. Rainier
Account
In summer 1982 the witness was hiking with five relatives down a forest trail near Mt. Rainier after finding a wood carving vandalized. The group heard heavy pacing footsteps in the woods that stopped when they stopped walking and resumed when they walked. They then heard a loud howl described as having two simultaneous tones, after which the whole group ran to their vehicle and drove away.
