Second-hand Oregon Bigfoot #13

[name withheld] sees a trackway coming straight down the mountain through his binocs

3 March 2001 Estacada, Clackamas County, Oregon 1 witness

Account

The witness was at a lake glassing south toward another lake on March 3. Through high-power binoculars the witness noticed a wide trail in the snow that ran straight down the mountain and across scree before turning near timber at the bottom. The trail was described as miles away and several feet wide. The account notes a bear or a Bigfoot could have made it, and questions why a lower pass was not used.
