Adirondacks, NY Vocalizations

A listener writes “I’ll keep it brief. The end of September 2009 I heard multiple vocalizations in the Adirondack Park over a four day period while camping with a few friends. Location is in the north west area of Lake George NY.

One night we all heard many whoops at 3:30am. These whoops were guttural on the low tone and then went higher in pitch, if that makes sense. I can do an imitation of it, but it wouldn’t do it justice. These whoops traveled thru the timber down the mountain we were at the base of. Woke us right up. Just incredible. No, these were not loons. I know about and have seen/heard loons many times up here. Was no bird.

Next night we woke up again, only this time we heard multiple howls. Almost exactly like that Ohio Howl recording. I would estimate these being a great distance away, most likely a half mile or so away. We couldn’t assign any local fauna to these vocalizations, including humans. Just too loud and long. It had to have came from something with huge lungs.

The last night, I woke up to hearing footsteps around camp. We were in an area where no one was around, and the steps just sounded like the culprit was being sneaky. It was at least 30-40 yards away, going tree to tree. Hard to explain how I know that, other than I know what it sounds like for a person/biped walking. I can’t describe the fear I had. I couldn’t move. First time I’ve ever been scared like that. Do not know why, but then hear people stating they’ve felt the same foreboding fear with these things. Weird. This and the footsteps only lasted maybe two-three minutes then was gone. Sounded as if something was heading towards and up the mountain. I didn’t see this thing, but I’ve been in and around this area since a small boy and know the sounds of the woods. Or thought I did.”
