Scott,
I have heard Barred Owl calls similar to this (not exact). Seems like that might be a possibility. Wolf was mentioned, and while animals can travel, the packs territory is usually to the north and west of your dot.

While camping near Liberty a couple weeks ago, I was awakened close to midnight by a pair of Great Horned Owls dueting with their typical calls. Interspersed with their vocalizations was another call that I have never heard before. It took me a while to get my senses together and make a recording, still in my tent.

This audio has only two of the wails, but there were maybe a dozen that preceded these. I don't believe it is even a bird, even though it was happening during the owl conversation. None of my bird experts had any ideas, other than concern for my welfare!
