Teens hear rocks thrown, see 3 creatures near residence

Six young people camping in a backyard went for a walk on a dirt road by the Willamette River and heard rocks being thrown into the water, with the split groups each thinking the other was responsible. After reuniting and starting back, they encountered three bipedal figures that came up from the river side, stood in front of them briefly making a snorting sound, then left quickly and quietly through brush on the opposite side. The witness froze while companions fled and reports having suppressed the memory for a long time.
