Account

Three people hunting together stopped on an old logging road when they heard a very loud scream from across a valley. The sound lasted about 30-45 seconds and was initially mistaken for a woman calling for help. The companions said they had never heard such a sound before, and the writer noted a possible sasquatch association from a book but remained uncertain of the source.
