Account
The witness and a companion were on an overnight camping trip in a state forest. Around 2 AM the witness was half-awake in cold conditions when a loud distant noise was heard. The witness noted the time to locate the sound on an all-night audio recorder and later felt the recording sounded like a very loud distant wood knock from a large source.
