Account
The witness was sleeping in a tent in a crowded campground with a friend while adults slept in a camper. He twice heard heavy bounding approach, stop outside the tent, and pluck the vestibule cord like a guitar string before stomping away. No one else heard it, and the crowded conditions made a deer running through seem unlikely to him.
