A camp site incident at Barton Flats with multiple witnesses. The campers were approached while they were sleeping

A foul cesspool-like odor was noticed around the camp, and the companions said pebbles had been tossed onto their tent and something had brushed against it. The group built a fire, discussed what happened, and packed up to leave early.
