Father and son hear a wood knock and find large human-like barefoot tracks while hunting near Trout Lake

November 2008 midday, dusk of the 25th and morning of the 26th. Between Carson And Guller Wa, Skamania County, Washington 2 witnesses

Account

During a late-season muzzleloader elk hunt the witness and a companion found a large five-toed barefoot print in semi-frozen ground. That evening while glassing a prairie they heard a loud knock from about 150 yards away. The next morning they found three more large prints of the same size and shape in a sandy wash, spaced about 80 inches apart, with one beyond a log showing no break in stride.
