Account

The witness and a companion were camped near Wildell for trout fishing. Around 11 p.m. while eating by the campfire they both heard a very loud, long yell from across the river that started loud, rose higher, and lasted 5 to 6 seconds. They listened for another call but heard nothing more that night.
