He hurried to his car where his wife was waiting and left the area, saying he has not returned alone since.
Hiker encounters intimidating beating sounds and heavy running footsteps
The witness parked to hike a closed-area trail and heard loud, fast drumming sounds from two directions that could be felt as percussion. After smelling a strong unfamiliar musky odor, the witness heard and felt heavy footsteps moving rapidly through brush ahead and then across a second trail as if cutting them off. The witness fled cross-country back to the vehicle without ever seeing the source and heard the drumming again near the vehicle.
Worse than something dead smell encountered by two fishermen
The witness and a companion fished in a restricted watershed and stayed late to leave under cover of darkness. While biking out on the service road they hit a strong rancid smell they could not source and both felt they were being watched in still, quiet conditions. They left without seeing anything and did not return.
