Account

Two campers collecting firewood at night heard a repeated long scream coming from deep in the valley to the southwest. The sound continued for several minutes every few seconds, changing into a broken-up cackle or yodel-like sound. Having never heard such a sound despite regular camping in the area, they relocated to another campsite for the night.
