Family finds prints and hears vocalizations in forest near Seaside

A large family group in a van with open windows in a dense, mossy forest heard four very long, loud screams described as hair-raising. The mother imitated the sound and received a reply each time. The forest was otherwise completely silent, and the group reported feeling watched.
