August 1972 Cougar, Cowlitz County, Washington Class B #1612

Screams terrify campers near Mt. St. Helens

Five people were camping together at dawn when they heard rapid crashing and thrashing through nearby underbrush with snapping twigs. This was followed by a loud, high-pitched scream described as like a woman screaming, estimated to be 30-50 yards away. The group was terrified and left the area immediately.

Summer 1970 Castle Rock Or Toutle, Cowlitz County, Washington Class B #4669

Memory told of hearing possible vocalizations while camping at Hollywood Gorge near Castle Rock

In summer 1970, the witness and a companion were camping in a tent along logging roads when they heard loud ape-like screaming lasting many seconds. They saw a large dark silhouette about 150 feet away, shouted warnings and fired .22 rounds at it without effect. Upon approaching, they found the silhouette was an old logging stump. The witness estimated the screams came from within a few hundred yards, with no nearby houses.

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
