Gold panner reports rocks thrown in frequent sighting zone within Uwharrie National Forest

The witness went alone to a friend's creek property to pan for gold. After a couple hours he stopped for a break and heard commotion moving through the treetops, then saw a football-sized rock fly over his head and land on the far bank. He shouted toward that direction, quickly packed up and left feeling watched, and later largely gave up panning and hunting.
