Woman recalls childhood experience of a terrifying night-time encounter while camping near Kennecott Copper mine

A family group of six was inside a large tent at night during a thunderstorm when they smelled an overpowering odor and heard loud screaming approach. A large hairy figure stood over the tent, visible in lightning flashes, screaming for several minutes while the occupants huddled in fear. An adult companion left the tent, apparently confronted the creature amid scuffling and growling, then returned pale and blocked the zipper until dawn when the group left.

Scream in Utah

The witness, working as a hunting guide in southeastern Utah, waited alone for deer in a canyon in the evening. He heard prolonged loud screaming that frightened two distant guides away. After dark with a dead flashlight, he hiked up the canyon trail toward the sound and faced a tall silhouette blocking the trail before it moved aside and let him pass.
