Campers hear several types of early morning vocalizations near Diamond Lake
Two relatives camped alone at a riverside campground, one in a tent and one in a van. During the night they heard loud calling sounds from across the river and later heard movement around the campsite, including grunt-like sounds beside the van. In the morning they compared notes, confirmed no other campers were present, and found no tracks due to hard ground.
