She later compared the sound to recordings and felt it matched a published Sasquatch howl recording.

No visual contact or physical evidence was reported, and the sound was heard on only one of three nights at the site.
Possible sighting by clay pigeon shooters near the base of Mt. Rainier
Four adults spent the day trap shooting at a dead-end road near a washed-out bridge. During a lunch break they noticed a tall dark stump-like shape about 25-30 yards into the forest and watched it remain motionless for 30-45 minutes. When they later looked again the shape was gone, leaving no matching stump. They concluded the object may have been a sasquatch calmly observing them despite hours of shotgun noise.
