Early Morning Howls Awaken Campers Near Liliwaup

Two people camping overnight in hammocks were awakened around 3 a.m. by loud, long howls that they felt physically and that repeated several times from up the creek.

They later found an online Sasquatch vocalization that sounded identical, but stated they did not know the source.

Whoop in Washington (2017)

A couple days into a solo Olympic coast hike, the witness heard single whoops from close range near a point and again from a secluded beach. Later he followed a bear trail over a ridge where a dark creature came at him on all fours within 10 feet, then silently backed away without turning and hunkered down. That night bipedal footsteps approached his creek-side camp then retreated, and he felt urged to leave the next morning.

Armed staff held a perimeter until the woods fell silent and the air felt lighter, then broke camp at sunrise and left without ever seeing the source.
