Strange frightining noises in Redwood grove north of Philipsville

In April 1991 the witness and his ex-wife were hiking a day-use trail off Avenue of the Giants when they heard a loud yell or howl from the forest that rapidly closed distance to within about 75 to 100 yards. They saw nothing, felt unwelcome, and ran back to their car and left. The witness said the sound was unlike an elk, human, or bear, and later heard a published Bigfoot scream recording that matched it.
