Terrifying encounter

This is a nice little area that has some challenging obstacle for off roading. There is a good amount of trash left behind by people so bring your trash bag. Most importantly we had a terrifying experience while camping here in October. We were tucked away in our spot asleep. Still visible from the road when about midnight a truck with a light bar came up to our camping spot. 5 guys got out of the truck and started heading toward us yelling, “is anybody alive, is anybody dead?” Scared the crap out of us, my partner got out and shouted back, no threatening but then the guys asked if we wanted to drink/get high with them. They left after that but we could not sleep. Who drives up to someone campsite like that in the middle of the night? Just know people come out her to “party” so make sure you are safe. Haven’t stayed the night again which is really sad because it is a nice area so close to our home. There was also an old cougar track near our campsite. So make note of that as well.
