First-hand Oregon Bigfoot #4371

Campers startled by raspy howls and falling rocks

August 2006 dusk Oakridge, Douglas County, Oregon 3 witnesses

Account

Three friends were camping late at night on the west side of Indigo Lake. They heard rocks rolling in a gully as if something was moving across shale, then heard raspy grunts unlike familiar animals. The source then threw rocks for about two minutes, gave two long howls, and left.
