Witness Account:
We chose a campsite across from the restrooms. At the road going into the site was a concrete slab with a water faucet. We backed our car in, there were shrubs between the campsite and the road. We could smell a campfire and heard boys singing in the distance, assuming it was Boy Scouts. We were sleeping in our tent. I woke to sound of footsteps nearby and then two hands slapped the top of the tent. My husband got out of the tent and rocks started being thrown at him, maybe a dozen times. The rocks were being thrown from behind the shrubs near the road. We took our sleeping 11 month old and got in our car and left. Left everything behind. I don't remember the little town we stopped at, but we stayed the night in a hotel until sunrise. We drove back to the campsite to get our belongings. My husband walked to the area the rocks were being thrown from and there were very large bare footprints. They were clearly seen in the loose soft soil. Our conversation was who would have such large feet and why weren't they wearing shoes as the air was cool and crisp. We went to walk across the road and we saw there was a dead snake that looked like it was almost pulled in half, laying on the slab under the water faucet.
Most terrifying night of my life. Actually, it was life altering because I became aware of primal fear and knew I could do whatever it took to protect my child. I'm reporting it now as this will be the 50th anniversary and I want this to be known.
Hand/foot prints:
The footprints were 15-16 inches long and the width was in proportion the the length. Pretty wide.
Sounds:
I could hear the footsteps coming close to the tent and then they stopped, came closer and that's when the top of the tent was slapped. The only other sound was from the throwing of the rocks.
Additional observations:
When we were leaving the sight, after the rock throwing, my husband kept looking at his Omega watch. He was confused about the time.
