Class B First-hand BFRO #624

Sounds heard at Skookum Lake

July 1991 Night, around 1:00 North Of Bagby Hot Springs, Clackamas County, Oregon 1 witness

Account

The witness camped with three companions at a primitive site near Skookum Lake below a ridge. During the night the witness alone awoke to sounds described as large rocks tumbling down the ridge and later to heavy spaced footsteps moving into and out of camp. The companions reported hearing nothing and no footprints were found the next day. Years later the witness associated the sounds with Sasquatch after reading other reports from the area.
