31 October 2015 Mt Si, King County, Washington Class B #65650

Possible vocalizations on Little Si Trail outside North Bend

Two people hiking in the morning heard a repeated loud alarm-like holler ending each time in a strange ape- and human-like vocalization. The witness imitated the sound a few times, and both listeners concluded it could not be human or a wolf/coyote due to lung capacity and lip-like articulation. Believing the source sounded closer and could be a large unknown animal, they ran back to the car without seeing anyone else on the trail.

October 2015 El Dorado, Uwharrie, Montgomery County, North Carolina Class B #50074

Possible encounter scares a camper from his hammock while in the Uwharrie National Forest

The witness spent the night in a hammock set a short distance into the woods beside a campground site while his wife slept in a tent.

He retreated to the tent, where both occupants continued to hear breaking culminating in one very loud break. The next morning they found no footprints or broken limbs, only rock piles they noted.
