Class B First-hand BFRO #28580

Objects thrown and banging on a cabin east of Jericho

16 October 2008 afternoon around 330 Jericho, Cameron County, Pennsylvania 3 witnesses

Account

Three people were inside a small cabin after scouting for bear season when they heard banging on the outside wall and later three bangs on the door. Each time they went outside they found no one there, but they noticed a strong foul odor. An apple and later a stick were thrown from over a rise behind the cabin while they were outside and loading their truck. They left believing no other people or vehicles were on the mountain.
