Screaming or howling in Okanogan County, Washington

My friend and me were talking loudly (for hunting) and did not recognize where we were. When we heard two or three loud screams that sounded like a sick cow, but alot higher pitch and longer in length. We were stunned and infact took cover behind a log. It seemed as it was coming twards us. Very loud branches breaking and thumping. But just like that, it stopped and we high-tailed it out of there.
