Class B First-hand BFRO #23424

Son and father hear possible sasquatch vocalizations in the Emigrant Wilderness

23 August 2007 5am to 7am, sunrise Pinecrest/Strawberry, Tuolumne County, California

Account

The witness was camping with his father near Bear Lake when a loud howling sound woke him around sunrise. The sound came from nearby cliffs, lasted about two hours, and seemed to move along the ridgeline while echoing through the canyon. The witness did not see the source, and other nearby campers also heard the sounds and left the area early.
