Campers find stacked rocks and hear unusual rock banging near Strawberry
Account
The witness was camping with two companions and hiked to a large rock formation in the evening. After feeling watched and returning to camp, the group heard repetitive clinking/banging sounds that seemed to answer from different directions for about twenty minutes. The next morning while packing, they heard the sounds again and the witness tried to mimic them with rocks and wood without getting a clear response.
