Husband and wife hear vocals while making camp at dark, near Priest Lake
Account
A couple and their dog set up camp for the night in a closed campground area after kayaking. After dark they heard loud whoo-like calls from the woods to the north, with a second much louder call from close range and a fainter answering call from a distance. They judged the calls too loud to be an owl and were frightened, retrieving a pistol, but heard no vehicles, lights, footsteps, or odor. Nothing further was heard overnight and nothing appeared disturbed in the morning.
