Cascade Siskiyou National Monument

Last night my wife and I camped out up at Cascade Siskiyou National Monument - not far from Chinquapin Mtn. and only about 7 min drive to Hwy 66. We were not at a campground. After getting up to pee at 3am or so I noticed a crazy yell/howl noise going on. The vocalizations took place over and over again in 5-10 second intervals for almost two hours.The vocalizations I heard very much reminded me of the Umatilla sounds. Needless to say, I didn't go back to sleep until the yelling/howling stopped (close to 5am). It sounded like it was coming from maybe a mile or two below from where we were camping. I am sure it must have sounded way louder to anyone closer down towards the Greensprings. I know someone else camping up near Hyatt Lake and/or Hwy 66 area had to have heard them last night as well.

Hey Yankeesearch, didn’t even know you were in chat, now you have the bug so bad you will have to keep going out to see another one. :)

Anyway, as I stand before God, I did not make this up!

Not saying it was Sq/BF/DM/Yeti... but it was strange. And I am locking my doors tonight for sure! :lol:

And just I was turning away, I thought I heard snort -- which could have been deer or maybe cattle... but... I do not know.
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:53 am »
I did not have the creepy feeling I normally get in these situations... so I really do not know what to make of it.
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:53 am »
One detail I forgot to mention: the whoop had almost a human like talk after it on both occasions.
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:52 am »
I walked back to the other side, and thought I heard a knock...
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:51 am »
Cattle about 1/8th mile away disappeared... and strangely at that location: it sounded like something banged the metal fence. Not loud... but never ever heard it before tonight.
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:50 am »
Two whoops... and some deer scattering (they may have been scattering because of me).
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:50 am »
From 6:20 PM to maybe 6:45 PM CST
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:49 am »
I may have just had an encounter!
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:46 am »
Hi gang! I know it has been a long time...
@ BrianDriver « Sat 12:59 pm »
Good quality pics. How long were the cams out?

Just to get the chat going, it’s going to take some time to move over all the data, but in the end, hope everyone likes the layout here.
