Family startled by overpowering cries near their rural home

12 May 2001 around 0030 hrs Lake George, Park County, Colorado 3 witnesses

Account

Late at night the witness and her two children were eating at home when a very loud, prolonged cry was heard from near the front yard. The sound lasted several seconds and frightened the family, who froze and then moved upstairs to wait. No animal was seen and a later check reportedly found no tracks.
