Howl Placer County Class B Clear all
June 2000 Foresthill, Placer County, California Class B #502

Three people report screams near Foresthill

The witness was camping with two relatives when they heard a resonant moaning wail off and on for hours. The sound seemed to move around the hillside and appeared to involve two sources calling to each other. The group searched with lights and by vehicle but saw nothing. The noises continued until the early morning when the group went to sleep.

Howl
September 1998 Foresthill California Neer Auburn, Placer County, California Class B #2326

A camper hears strange late night howls near Foresthill

The witness was sleeping in a large reenactment camp in forested hills when loud, deep howling woke him. The sounds first came from a distant ridge and about an hour later came from much closer down the road, waking many others in camp. The witness loaded his weapon before falling back asleep and heard the sounds move farther away twice more. No tracks were found the next morning.

A quick ask from the person behind the Anomadex: if you allow analytics, Google Analytics shows me which places, phenomena and searches you're most curious about. That tells me which regions and sources to add next and what to make easier to find. It never sees your name or anything you send me, and nothing is set unless you say yes. Privacy
