Class B First-hand BFRO #24264

Possible howls heard in the Three Top Mountain area

July 2008 Around 8 to 11 PM West Jefferson, Ashe County, North Carolina 1 witness

Account

The witness was staying alone for a week at a secluded rental house on a fishing trip. On two evenings he heard long, deep howls coming from the northwest, each lasting about 30 seconds and repeating every 15-20 minutes for about two hours on the first night and more distantly on the second. The howls prompted barking from local dogs. He said they sounded very similar to the 1994 Ohio Moaning Howl recording.
