Family and friends camping hear loud vocalization.

Shady Cove, Jackson County, Oregon
Account
The witness and companions were camping overnight in a rock quarry and standing around a campfire talking when loud screams were heard from the side of the quarry. The screaming continued for at least ten minutes, at times seeming more intense and closer, and one youth locked himself in a vehicle. Later that night the witness awoke to more distant screams. The witness later felt a sound on a Bigfoot sounds page matched what was heard that night.
