Geographical Index > United States > Oregon > Lane County > Report # 1778 Report # 1778 (Class B) Submitted by witness who requests confidential status on Friday, February 16, 2001. Three young hunters hear very loud scream across Diamond Peak Wilderness valley. (Show Printer-friendly Version) YEAR: 2000 SEASON: Fall MONTH: September STATE: Oregon COUNTY: Lane County LOCATION DETAILS: It was near the Diamond Peak Wilderness area maybe within five miles near it; we were about five or six thousand feet in elevation. NEAREST TOWN: Oakridge was the nearest town NEAREST ROAD: An old logging road, with a dead end. OBSERVED: Myself and my two cousins were out hunting. I had met up with my younger cousin and we both hiked up to an old logging road. We then heard a very loud scream come from across a valley. It was about a mile or so across and the scream seemed so loud at first I thought that some lady was screaming for help or something. The screaming lasted for just a short time, mabey 30-45 seconds or so. I Asked my cousins what that sound was and they said they have never heard it before even though they have hunted these woods for about seven years now. I then remembered that I read in a book that sasquatch sometimes make a loud screaming noise. I still do not know exactly what made that noise. ALSO NOTICED: No OTHER WITNESSES: The were three witnesses including myself. We were waiting on an old logging road for my older cousin OTHER STORIES: No TIME AND CONDITIONS: It happened in the afternoon about 3:30. It was a bright day; that day also hot. We were not far from Diamond Peak Wilderness area. ENVIRONMENT: It occured in the Cascade Mountains, with Ponderosa pines and Douglas firs being the most abundant trees in the area.
