Minutes later he heard an extremely loud, deep growl from behind him that repeated after the animal stepped closer.

Bicyclist hears vocalization, wood knocks and sees tree shaking
On July 3 the witness was walking his loaded bicycle along Highway 242 west of Sisters in the early evening. From about 50 feet away in the woods he heard four evenly spaced wood-on-wood knocks, then saw a large bush shake and heard a low animal-like growl. He watched for about 30 seconds before walking away, with nothing further happening.
