Account

The writer was contacted about large tracks in a secluded clearcut area and was escorted to a spur road. Two large human-like footprints were found in mud where a wide trail of broken vegetation came down a hill to the road. The writer photographed both prints, cast the left one, and collected a hair from between the toes for analysis.
