Tracks found during a nature ride near Mica Peak
Account
Two quad riders stopped near waterfalls and discovered a large footprint on a trail, photographing it with a shoe for scale. The witness later visited the site with a relative and observed additional prints descending a hillside and crossing the trail into cedar trees. An attempt to make a plaster cast failed for lack of plaster, and rain later washed the imprint away.
