REPORT DETAIL

Description of event: Randy Fitzell was exploring an area in the woods near Larch Mountain, OR, T1N R6E, a cut over area with forest on either side. With the wind blowing from the north, he became aware of a very pungent odor coming from the darkness of the woods. Even though it made him feel light headed, he searched around, and did find a dead deer carcass, but the odor was not coming from there. Moving to another area a quarter of a mile away, it was a half hour later when the smell appeared again. Then he heard clicks on tree trunks in the woods on a nearby hill overlooking where he was. It was very loud, like a hundred-pound woodpecker, Randy said...so, like most people, he got the hell outta' there!
