Hunter hears chimp-like sounds north of the North Pass ski resort
The witness was hunting elk with a muzzleloader several miles north of a ski area as snow began to fall. From a small canyon he heard chimp-like huffing and chattering that seemed to come from three individuals on both sides of the ravine. He tried to see the sources as the sounds kept moving ahead with him but saw nothing, then returned to camp as the storm worsened and daylight faded.
Salmon surveyor has unusual experience near confluence of Fall River and Boss Creek
The witness was waiting by a truck for her survey partner when she heard screams, distress-like animal cries, rock-smashing sounds, and brush crashing with mumbling like conversation. She stayed in the vehicle without seeing what made the sounds. Shortly after, her partner arrived by a different trail and said he had found a freshly killed deer torn in half with steam, blood, and a blood trail, but had heard nothing.
Scream in Washington (1992)
The witness and a fellow soldier were on a moonlit two-man patrol defending a simulated missile site during a training exercise. They heard a long loud scream that shifted into babble and cackling, saw a large silhouette on a ridge, and followed it for over a kilometer. When the figure charged downhill toward them they moved to intercept, then stopped amid intense layered odor and withdrew feeling they were in danger.
Footsteps in Washington (1987)
In 1987 the witness was deer hunting and camping in eastern Washington. After the group left him alone at a logging road camp, he heard bipedal footsteps approach his tent at night, felt something strike the tent, then heard movement near his car and a log being torn apart in a gully before fleeing by vehicle to the highway. A night or two later he returned with a hunting companion and both heard multiple chattering, tonal and clicking vocalizations from different directions surrounding the camp.
Two hunters hear nighttime vocalizations near Darrington
Two people were settling to sleep in sleeping bags at a roadside camp late at night.
