Rock throwing in Washington (2012)

After a thunderstorm night the guest slept alone in a six-man tent with his truck parked close by. Around 2:15 AM gravel fell onto his canopy, a rock was dragged down a metal pole, then huge fingers pushed through the tent door and swept back and forth as if feeling for something. Terrified, he stayed still until it withdrew, walked past his head, tapped his truck bumper, and walked down the road away, an exit also heard by another camper nearby.
