Fish Creek - Campers hear noises, smell 'skunky' smell

Two people backpacked in and camped for two nights along a closed road. During the second night, one camper heard sustained light movement in brush around camp after dark and woke to a strong skunk-like odor before dawn. After sunrise, that camper found two fresh and clear footprints in duff near camp measuring about 15 inches long. The camper interpreted the activity as the camp being cased.

The Database of Unexplained Encounters. Claims are recorded as claims: the Anomadex catalogues what people reported, where it was reported, and how sure I am that it was read correctly. It does not rule on what they saw.

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
