Campers describe sounds, rock throwing and brief sighting at dark near Wind River Work Center outside Carson
Four campers spending the night near a creek reported hearing aggressive vocalizations described as a mix of whoops and screams, then seeing the silhouette of a very tall figure with a wide torso about fifteen feet away. They retreated to their truck before setting up camp, and later that night heard a deep whistle, crunching footsteps, pebbles hitting tents, and a branch breaking, along with a foul odor while a small dog growled. By morning a chair was found knocked over, but no tracks were located on the rocky ground.
Elk hunters have knock answered, hear roar vocalization, have tent slapped, north of Mt. St. Helens.
The witness and a relative were camping in a remote clearing on the first night of an elk-hunting trip. After splitting firewood in the evening they heard loud knocks from the woods, and one loud knock came back after the witness knocked in return. Around 1 a.m. they were awakened by something slapping their tent and by a loud roar beside the tent, but searches with lights found no tracks, broken branches, or odor.
Tracks near Skamania County (2013)
In April 2013 the guest took his teenage son camping at a just-opened campground off Highway 14 along the Columbia River. During a daytime walk they found an old large track, opened clam shells out of place, a fresh vine-maple twist tucked behind a fir, an 18-inch footprint beneath it, and several pushed or tossed trees. That night in camp they heard branch-breaking, felt the tarps pulled, heard splashing, felt vibration waves, and heard two wood knocks before leaving exhausted in the morning.
