Campers awakened by late-night visitor in the Indian Heaven Wilderness
Account
The witness was camped with a companion, a child relative and a dog at a campground. During a daytime hike the dog became reluctant to continue and stayed close, and the witness noticed rustling in brush. Late that night the dog barked and dug frantically at the closed tent door, then after voices inside the tent heavy two-footed footsteps were heard running away.
