Additional information.
I spoke with the witness for a while after taking the report. To get a better understanding of what was seen I showed the witness some pictures of casted tracks from a book. The witness identified the tracks in the book with what had been seen that day. The pattern of footprints was one directly in front of the other, with approx 6 feet between tracks. It was not a human type walk at all. The pattern coincides with other Sasquatch tracks seen in the past. When asked about the track dimensions, the witness said they were about 18 Inches long, 10 Inches wide and had a depth of approximately 2 Inches, adding they had looked fairly fresh. The witness stated the incident could be verified with the other two witnesses. A very sincere witness indeed reporting this 17 years later.
Ranking system key
