Class B First-hand BFRO #1620

Family on vacation find tracks in an isolated area.

9 March 1969 about noon Carson, Skamania County, Washington

Account

On March 9, 1969, a group visiting a vacation property on Bear Creek found very large footprint-like depressions in deep snow. The tracks appeared to come from the campsite area and angle off toward the creek into trees, with a stride a tall adult could not match. The group left without further investigation, and the witness later notified the county sheriff, whose follow-up found additional tracks and produced casts.
